I have two phones at home... Xperia Ray and NeoV
100% Brightness on Neo V = 40% brightness on Ray
My Ray when set to 100% makes Neo V die...
Is the display on Neo V so dim? It's like i have to keep it above 75% brightness to keep it comfortable... On ray, just 20% is also enough...
It's there any hardware problem or its just dim by default?+ :-/

I too wondered about this problem,with CM7 rom screen is great at brightness set to full.Wonder why Sony is not fixing these in fw releases or they do want us to stay in dark like this forever
try use RootDim ~May work
And MIUI has crazy brightness trust me !
Are you guys sure its Software related thing?... I was so depressed with it....
its running stock at the moment...
isnt there any Mod that can allow me to use it on Stock Rom after Rooting?

Hi there. I also experience this. Despite 100% brightness and all, its not that bright and I am not satisfied.
However, I have an experience I would like to share with regards to the brightness:
When power off the phone and power it on again, the sony ericcson logo appears dim. Then goes bright, the brightness that I wanted and feel should be the correct one, then suddenly goes dim again until the desktop appears. And mo matter how you adjust it, it just doesnt get that bright.
Sigh

Hello guys, i just took the xperia mini st15i and i saw that the screen lightning is trembling when i am writing a text most of times, but it does it at idle times too.
I did factory reset to the phone and it still does it. It stops doing it when i am covering the lightning sensor, i think that the problem is at auto screen brightness.
is there anything that i can do with that? or i must get it for RMA?
There is another topic that treat the argument.
The only way is to root your phone and Download the app "Disable Auto Brighteness" for Xperia Play(It's work for Xperia Mini).
Or you have to change something in the file system and disable auto-brightness.
The reason that happens is because you cover the light sensor with your thumb sometimes when texting. Its not a device fault, its just how its meant to work.

Yeah, I get that too on my Xperia Mini Pro, but it doesnt happen all the time, like sometimes indoors and out.
ok ill check that, my question is if i want to put the cyanogen to the phone, firstly i have to unlock the bootloader to do it and that is avoiding the warranty, can i lock the bootloader after that again to get the warranty back?

No.
It's happens only on Xperia Mini ST15.
Is a problem of the light sensor,badly calibrated.

So does the Xperia active. Its just common sense. Less light into the ambient sensor = lower brightness.
There's an official fix for this issue as well as overheating and other issues with SE Mini, just go to the nearest SE Service Center and ask for the calibration fix for xperia mini.
There have been a lot of reported stories about these issues and was all resolved by the calibration fix.
Have a look at this thread where I posted an answer on this.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=19778308
I'll just paste it here as well for all to see.
I can confirm that this happens when the light sensor adjusts the screen brightness. If you go to Settings > Screen > Screen brightness, and here set it to max, you will disable the auto brightness feature and the flickering should stop. It will have negative effect on your battery performance though.

i have a rather weird problem with my display that is when the screen is off it glows slightly not much but very light as if the displays running in the background and is it a hardware problem coz m thinking to get it checked... still under warranty so if anyone has encountered any problem like this before and any solutions ???
Could you take a photo of it and post here, alongside the normal display? It will help in comparison.

see if i take in normal light then one cant see the difference .. if full dark then too spotting the diff.... imo wud not be possible !!
He's saying that when he hits the power button to turn off the display, the backlight is still on.
I've never had this issue, I'm just helping to clarify your issue.
Oh i got it. I had this issue on unlocking screen. My phone won't wake up but I would get a lit black screen. Disabling windows animation reduced this stuff. (though ir occurs very few). I use smartass v2 128 to 1190

I use Miui Rom. And it happens a lot that when I lock my phone by power button the screen glows on full brightness and dim down. Its like in a second. VEry annoying!
i never use MIUI rom but still have these problem and i use at 245 to 1152 mhz oly !!
Some dev and aosp 2.2 roms used to stay slightly lit after screen off. it was a bug that killed battery life and some devs fixed it over time. So it could be your rom....

What do you mean by the screen blinks???
Does it blink when brightness is full?
If it doesn't blink with full brightness, then you may have a faulty ambient light sensor.

I think he is also pissed off with "ambient light sensor" Auto brightness feature, which unfortunately we can't turn off (without root)
I think the OP means flicker, which is a "feature" on SE 2011 phones... the autobrightness modulates the screen brightness rather quickly and is generally more obvious in low light conditions.
I think i found the answer, its what u guys told, the ambient or auto ****s sony has..
Thanks for the answers

Here's the solution,but you need to root your phone for this to work.About the ram rest is used for Android OS I guess
I have SE LWW i love this phone but what i have notice that it has some problem with the sensor that change the brightness according to the light conditions.
What happens is that sometimes the screen start to flicker that is continuous jump
between low and high brightness which is very irritating.
So please share if any one of u face the same problem or know anything about it.
I m using LwW from yesterday but havnt seen this kind of issue may be needing more time to cross check, will update definitely.

yeah mine too.
i think it's coming from the device light sensor, n we can't fix it until sony put an update.

Weird had the lww too and never had that problem. Do the ones that have it updated your phones?? I am currently on lasan's rom but never encounter it.
thanks for replying guys but i think it is the ambient light sensor problem that means it is a hardware problem so it might not get solved by update.
Be positive most of the times it is a kernel related problem or take to a service center and see if they give you a new one
Live With Walkman
Live with walkman has a ambient sensor in it which changes light accordingly
but i never noticed any flicker in my phone my suggestions would be take the
phone SE service center
the flicker shows when u look at screen from side. but from infront of the screen, it's hard to see.

I confirm this.
When brightness is not full(I used on half on Stock and Hybrom ROMs), then in some conditions the screen indeed does flicker a bit.
That is caused by ambient light sensor, which detects many different light levels at some point, that is the reason for changing screen brightness so much at that time.
Currently, I am not aware of solutions for this, as I do use custom ROM, where I haven't noticed it yet.

Is not a bug, most other phones have it also, that means light sensor works.
It shouldn't damage your phone.
