[Q] Internet App... - Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)

Whenever I open the Internet App the screen goes dim. This doesn't happen with any other app and I have Auto Brightness turned off... What's the deal?

There's a brightness setting within the app itself as well.

[Q] How to turn off auto brightness

Hey,
i am using FreeX10 beta 4, is there any way to turn auto brightness off? Every time i write a message the displaybrightness goes up and down, thats annoying
sorry, for the stupid answer (which isn't even one). but how did you activate auto brightness?! actually it does not work for me and i can't find it in the settings, but i'd love to have it again!
i set the brightness with the energysettings widget...
and you are right, there should not be an auto brightness, but the brightness changes when i write textmessages

Settings->display->brightness?
Get rid of the widget... Try widgetsoid 2.X
It's free, and awesome!

SOLVED [Q] screen randomly goes full brightness.

As the title says my GFs 10.1 will go full brightness at random times. Only way to change it back is to go into setting. The slider is all the way down but have to slide it to full then back down. Any ideas guys?
The fix is: Go TO SETTINGS, SCREEN, AUTO ADJUST SCREEN POWER, UNCHECK. Thanks bd85!

I have had this issue as well when using auto brightness function. Only when viewing photo albums. Very annoying. I no longer use the auto brightness function now. Little issues like this drive me crazy. Add this to the keyboard lag and other small issues and i start to question the purchase.
Thankfully i found this site to help me realize its not just me...misery loves company. Lol.
Have you guys tried to shut off the option in setting that's can analyze the screen color and more and the adjust the screen for power savings.
I have noticed what you are mention. And it only appears in movie's because the picture change often so the tab tried to compensate the colors often.
Go TO SETTINGS, SCREEN, AUTO ADJUST SCREEN POWER, UNCHECK.
And I am not talking about the auto brightness that you can access from clicking on the lower right part of your screen

That seemed to be it. Didn't think to check that since the Xoom doesn't have that setting. One thing i wish the xoom had was the whole different wallpaper for lock screen thing the 10.1 has.

Disabling Browser Brightness?

This is really bugging me, is there a way to disable the browser brightness settings? Our can I make it synchronise with the main display brightness?
I don't use automatic brightness and rely on the switchpro widget on my home screen to adjust the display brightness on the fly. It's really annoying to see the monitor changing brightness when I switch between an app and the browser, or even going through the bookmarks page within the browser itself!!

It's already unticked. And I do mean the browser brightness settings inside the stock browser.

What? No one is having the same issue?
I want my screen brightness level maintained throughout various apps/homescreen/browser, is there a hack for this?

The original Galaxy S and its variant all had this "feature". I HATE IT. 3rd party browsers are too clunky and bloated, but geez. Having to change the brightness TWICE every time I want to change it really blows.
It's not that nobody else has this issue, it's that (for some reason) nobody with the skill to fix it cares to do so.
count me in as 1 of the people that is tired of having a separate brightness control. I can set my brightness way down and in the middle of the night I turn on my browser and boom! a super bright light is in my face.
Frustrating.
Of course I have the issue as all others. But it doesn't make an impact as I always on Auto Brightness
Regards.
+1
Please has anyone had any luck with this. Keep trying others and ending back with stock. Just wish it used system brightness and that it let you close a window even if it was the only one.
Anyone had joy with either?
Thanks
Another one for 'Tasker' to solve
Download 'Tasker' from the market (£3.99 I think?)
You can then create a profile so whenever you open 'internet' tasker will set the screen brightness to a setting of your choice.
Simples
(believe me this is only the tip of the iceberg with what Tasker can do)
Tasker does not have a setting for Browser Brightness.
Hi thanks for the idea, but I have been trying to find a way to do this using Tasker without any luck. Tasker already controls my Screen brightness. Far better than Auto. But the Screen Brightness and Browser Bightness are two seperate settings. I can only get Tasker to adjust the Screen one.
Still if anyone has any ideas, please. It drives me nuts when I turn over at night to check something on the web, then get blinded by a full brightness broweser on a dimmed phone.

brightness changes

i don't have auto brightness on (should i?) but i occasionally see my phone get darker/brighter. why is this happening? sometimes i notice it going in/out of a locked screen, and have also noticed it immediately after opening a web page.

The browser has its own different brightness settings. Go to settings in the browser and adjust the brightness to your liking.
Yep. It's the browser settings. Was driving me nuts at first.

I turned that feature off but I get that Dim bug whatever it is when I play a game. I even re flash it again.
Also turn OFF the automatic setting in Brightness level selector....that might help
Same here, the display dims when in game or homescreen
