i think some issue with the chip and nothing will work. somebody say i'm wrong on this.

Try downloading a settings app like quicker https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.bwx.bequick2
And see if it lets you adjust brightness

[Q] Brightness App?

I've been looking for an app that is supposed to keep the screen brightness at a certain level no matter what app is running that could change the brightness. I have googled and googled and all I can find are auto brightness apps. The app I am thinking that I say my have been a script that runs in the background. My wifes eris keeps shooting the brightness to max all the time. Thanks!
You do know that the brightness slider can be set to a certain llevel.

Umm yes I do. My wife has an Eris rooted running exactly the same rom as mine and no matter what you set the brightness slider to, 5 minutes later, wake the phone up and poof brightness is at max. So my question again is that if anyone knows the app or script in question, your help would be greatly appreciated.
I second this, my phone does the same thing

Have you tried a different ROM? I had two Eris before my D2 and never had that issue.

Not so sure about that. Mine did it once or twice when still running the OTA 2.1... made me change the screen brightness from Auto to about 30~40%. Since running xtrSENSE 4.6.5 I haven't seen any problems with the screen brightness resetting to max. There are times when the auto brightness seems befuddled and selects a strangely dark setting, but it quickly settles down and works fine.
My money is on an ill-behaved app. What diff apps do you and your wife run?

The apps that she has that I don't are:
Bubbles
Connect4
eBay
FxCamera
Shazam
Sketcher
Maybe the camera app? I'll uninstall it and see.
I'm thinking the camera app. In the xtrSENSE thread, somebody mentioned a problem with a camera, so it's the likely culprit. Good luck.

Once again did you flash a new rom. I ran nonsensikal and kaosfroyo for over a year and a half. Not once did they act up. So either reflash your xtrasense or something else. So either you have a bug in one of your apps as others have stated or something is wrong with the ROM.
What I did was used an app called abrightness and went into settings and unchecked automatic adjust for brightness.

The culprit ended up being the FxCamera app. Uninstalled it and no brightness issues. Oh, and "whining" and asking a valid question in the QUESTIONS forum are two completely different things. Thanks to anyone who actually offered constructive comments.

[Q] Are there any apps to customize the AutoBrightness?

Does anyone know if there are any apps that will let you fully customize the AutoBrightness?
By which I mean, setting up varying sets of:
Light detected between (min, max), Brightness set to ###
I think I saw somewhere that CM7 works this way, but is there any app that will do this for the stock build (rooted and unlocked)?
Its not an autobrightness app but I have seen substancial improvements to my battery life using the SuperDim app, it does have save slots but you have to switch between them manually its not auto. Hope thats somewhat helpful.

Thanks, I have something for manual swapping, but it's... inconvenient.
I was really looking for an app that does custom autobright settings. I can't believe no one has coded one somewhere...

Go to settings. Display. Toggle Auto-brightness on or off.
I get that part I meant the settings that has something to do with with the auto brightness sensor. It just seems a bit dim in the same light vs. a sense ROM

I believe this is something with MIUI. It's been like that on this phone with every revision I've ran. Either set your Brightness to a desired level or deal with the low auto for now until/if they can fix that.

Yeah I posted a message on the thread and still waiting. Just wanted to see if anyone had it laying around to share..
Found it one that works! Attached below for others. It lowers brightness to 1, stock brightness is 40. A lot less distraction for operating your phone in the dark. Just take the 50dimleds file(not all the folds, but just the file alone) and place it into system/etc/init.d/and reboot. This should save me a bit of battery too, yeah I know very little. lol

Find this file:
System/etc/init.d/01buttonlights
Open the file in that location in root explorer or similar app. Then in the file, change the brightest value from 1 to something higher. 40 is the brightest.

[Q] Custon brightness levels do not save

I tried searching the forums for this problem, but didn't find a solution.
When I edit the brightness levels and try to save, I get the message that 'Settings has stopped'. Is there a workaround to edit and save the levels, ie. ADB?

Yes, I am using Zeubea's CM10. I would love to dim my screen more so I can save battery, but it looks like more people have this problem of not being able to save levels.
Why don't you change the brightness manually in display setting with the slider?

But wouldn't that mean that brightness is set at a fixed level? I use my phone in different environments and automatic would be very handy. But thanks for the suggestion.
