Hey guys,
Wat's te ideal brightness setting for the battery? Mines on about 20-30% but in battery usage it says 58% usage and the phone hardl last a day ...
Any thoughts?
Stats in Battery usage graph and your Brightness level is completely two different things.
I always use Auto.
I think I will try that. I also wonder if noled app is having an effect but I set the brightness on that to 1%.
Ever since 2.3.4 I've had mine on full brightness. The battery on 2.3.4 roms has always been good for me.
Is that stock or custom ROM?
Also anyone find that once the battery saver option kicks in that when it recharges that the settings don't switch back to what they were previously? A bit annoying as I don't want to have to manually change my screen timeout etc everytime.
Also what's the option for adjust screen brightness tickbox about just below the general brightness setting? Don't quite understand that.

You mean background effect?
- Dynamic: bright, vivid colors
- Standard: standard colors.
- Movie: contrast higher, warmer image.

I think the option is: "Auto adjust power" int he Display settings menu. Something about analyzing images or something.
Anyone able to expand upon this please?

since its upgrading to samoled+ even we set the brighness to 0 it is still bright but then again depending your eyes and needs of battery consumption (bc) theres also a"custom rom"way like hollow to follow or if you prefered moderate usage without flashing i think on 20-30% bright it contribute to bc
My browser is set is have the brightness at 0 which is fine, I think there's a service in the background using more CPU than it needs. Likelihood it is a Glu game ~.~.
Hi
I didn't find a good answer to my question on the other threads for x10 mini (e10i)
I found this phone and got rid of the SIM-card. The brightness of the phone is too dark and i can't adjust it!! How does this come?
If the phone boots, the light is bright. But once the OS loads into the memory, the brightness gets dark and i can't get it lighter ( it is already at the maximum brightness if i look into the settings)
What can I do?
Thanks
Stijn
You can place you question in right forum!

Turn off auto brightness from settings /display and set the amount of brightness you like manually. You can also tweek sensor sensitivity from cyanogen mod settings /display if u want to keep auto brightness

Hey,
Do you use Auto brightness or no?
If not, why?
I use auto as it doesn't affect my battery much needed screen look nicer when it's brighter. But there r pple tat use lowest brightness settings for battery savings reason

Yes, yes I do.

I don't. It drain's my battery more than manual settings. Slide your finger over notification area to adjust brightness manually.
I'm on MIUI so I can change from the notification bar. It depends, if I'm charging I'll have full brightness to show off the sexy SAmoled+ display. But if I'm out and trying to conserve battery I'll have it on auto.

Off.
Use quick settings via notification, hate brightness changing all time so its all way down except when need to up brightness manually.

Off. Main reason is to conserve battery. Most of the time super amoled plus display is bright enough even when close to lowest brightness. Like the others said there's a shortcut to manually increase the brightness through sliding the notification bar when needed say for example outdoors.
i never use the auto feature
Always auto.
I just can't unblock my handset when I'm out (thanks to australian sun) - I see nothing on the screen.
Unless there's a way to manually update brightness when lock screen's on ?
Off and almost always at maximum brightness. When using it in the dark (when I should be sleeping) I lower the brightness via the notification bar shortcut (that also works when the screen is locked using WidgetLocker).
No. Manual adjust is easy and more satisfying.
no!not working good....
inviato da sgs2
I do. Tried both and found that it's just as annoying having to adjust manually as it is when auto is slow

Never..... it ( almost) allways in max. It's a shame to use that beautiful screen on dull settings.

Im using auto.....because home is not like outdoor.....if i make it at the lowest i wont see any thing in the outdoor.......i have it on because it stimulate the sun and the low light condition.....plus .. i dont care about the battery...i bought the phone to use it and enjoy it not to sit and watch the battery all day long and keeping myself from enjoying this coool phone...........
I use Auto; I might try manual and adjusting it now and then but at the moment I'm content with auto.
I kept it off cause you can easily changed the brightness just by sliding the notification bar
No , I use manual so I can adjust it to the way I like it.
Always off, adjust the brightness level where you suit.
Auto mode may drains battery life.
I do use auto bright
It's good to enhance your view on the mobile at any light conditions
And IT DOES NOT drain your battery . it's,false thoughts guys belive me

I'm trying to decrease the screen's brightness as much as possible.
When specifying the brightness in Profiles (apk) the minimum allowed is 7%. Still it's too much for me in certain situations.
I'd prefer to have an option to completely minimize the brightness like in old phones when disabling back lit.
Is it possible with those new AMOLEDs?
Thanks.
I don't know about any other phones, but for our atrix, use an app called superdim from the market. lowers the brightness even more so than normally allowed.
Not exactly the most comfortable way to do. The Profiles should include this feature natively.
Anyway many thanks, it did dim the screen just fine.

Look for rogerpodacter's thread on manually lowering the brightness through terminal emulator. It works great and you can lower brightness of capacitive buttons too. Thing is it if you reboot you gotta redo it but it is not hard.

I just do not understand the implementation of Auto Brightness in G2.
If I go out, it never increases the brighness even by one bit. I have to swipe it up.
Same when I go inside.
Whats the point of Having auto brightness if it does not work.
Try lux dash app my friend.
Much better
I typically will point the front camera towards the sun when I go outside to get it to adjust. Usually works pretty quickly, but sometimes it fails.

The solution is use lux autobrightness

The way the auto brightness works in LG is different from what we see on other devices. If you flashing a custom AOSP based rom you will see auto brightness working fine as we are accustomed.
Agree, stock doesn't work at all

Thanks for the lux tip. It appears to be working well.

It works actually..Just that it's somehow retarded..And so i have switch over to fixed brightness instead..
Another option, although not automatic, is to swipe down and use the brightness toggle. Each time you press the button it will scroll through from 50%, 90%, 0%, 50%, 90%, 0%, etc.
I usually use my phone at 50% but if I'm in direct sunlight or want to show off my G2 screen I will then hit the brightness button to make it 90%. No idea why it doesn't automatically default to 100%, though.

I can not say I have noticed autobrightness glitches (European D802, stock rom).
I think LG2's autobrightness system is great. You can use the slider in pulldown menu to adjust your base brightness preference and it is auto according to that.
Far better than other phones with "fixed auto", i.e. my previous OneX+, where the screen is too bright in low-light conditions.
Yes LUX works...but so does the stock auto brightness setting. So if you want to use the stock version here is what you need to remember. The slider is the BASE level...which means that if you set it to 50% then that is the LOWEST the screen brightness will go when in a dark room. You can set it lower but in my testing I feel that anything lower than 40% does not lower it any more than that... YMMV.
Then, after setting your low end base, the screen will automatically get brighter when you go out into the sun. Now whether it will ever go to 100% on its own or not I do not know. But I find that with my VZ variant set to 50% base, when I go out into the brightest sun the screen brightens up to the point where I can see it just fine. One other observation is that the stock version is a little slower at making the adjustment than LUX is, but only by a few seconds from start to finish.

That might be, but the difference from full sunlight to complete darkness is almost nothing, no matter what base % you set it to. The auto brightness is just utterly completly useless. Giving Lux a try.
I found yet another brightness app works great.

I leave mine on 40% with auto ticked and it works fine

I personally leave mine at 50% constant but for those who want auto brightness try this app:

Stock autobrightness works, but it's slow and sometimes it won't change screen brightness for reasons unknown.
Lux is much better. I'm not sure about free version, but with full version you can customize brightness curve and lower reaction times so it's really quick compared to stock autobrightness.
+1 for lux with autobrightness on wake

The solution here is Lux app. It's AWESOME.
