I've confirmed this behavior on two tabs, one running 3.1 base and the other running 3.1 ux.
In apps like tapatalk or the amazon.com for android app, when i scroll through a list of items or topics the display brightness dims until the scrolling movement stops and the brightness returns to normal.
The difference isn't huge, but it's definitely clearly visible on both units I've tested and pretty distracting.
I tested with brightness set at auto and set at a fixed level and it happens either way.
I found a way to resolve this..
I found an option under Settings - Screen - Auto adjust screen power which is enabled by default (even if brightness is not at auto).
If I disable this, the brightness fluctuation stops.
Just thought I'd share..
Hey
Thanks, will give it a try. Got the same issue, not bad but it is irritating :-\ Especially when I use zino.

So I was considering an AT&T version of the Samsung Galaxy S II but it does not seem to have the "Background Effect" display setting that lets one change the saturation to a more color accurate setting. I know the values for these have been investigated somewhat successfully here with people setting their own custom values. But would this be an option for the AT&T version that doesn't even have this Settings screen? Any ideas? I'd love this phone, but the color accuracy is very important to me.
Thanks!
hi all, I noticed that light sensor doesnt work properly, when I go from dark to light area, the brightness increases but when I go from light to dark area the brightness wont decrease, on honeycomb it worked properly, anybody else experiences this problem?
Same here, it goes bright but does not decrease.
I use the app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=rubberbigpepper.DisplayBrightness&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsInJ1YmJlcmJpZ3BlcHBlci5EaXNwbGF5QnJpZ2h0bmVzcyJd
make an invisible slider on the edge of screen to adjust brightness.
is there any way to make it work properly?
Don't think so. Its pretty much unusable now.

There are lots of negative comments about light sensor, but i have to say it works well to me on ICS. Could be possibly massive amount of defected devices.
Lightsensor doesn't work for me either - too bad, hope it will be corrected.
Perhaps it's because I'm running ICS "General Channel".

Do the sensor dim the light in the same session for you?
Here it turns up the light but not down again.

Same here, adjusting upwards works fine, but it doesn't adjust downwards in low light conditions.
I have tried two apps that turns the light down again, custom auto brightness and lux auto brightness.
One small problem. The pad will crash on pattern unlock after sleep. I Also the light sensor will not work s after wake up sometimes.

I'm guessing no one has had any luck with this issue but I figure I'd necro the thread anyways. My light sensor sucks also. I used 'Android Sensor Box' to get the values coming out of the sensor. It only displays either 40 lux or 280 lux which is obviously not right. This is on Cyanogen 9, stock t-mobile ICS and the rooted international gingerbread(can't remember which one exactly).
So I was wondering if anyone who owns one of these has ever gotten a sensor value that makes any sense.
thanks
nope,
I use instead display brightness https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=rubberbigpepper.DisplayBrightness&hl=no
create an invisible brightness slider on theedge of the screen.
Try using custom auto brightness with the auto brightness on (there's a setting in that app that disabled the system auto brightness at screen on. Turn it off).
The original kernel only recognized 3 light levels. If you use bart's kernel it will recognize 6 levels.
Yes, I think there's a software problem because both app (lux and cua) crash hard in HMP, but I don't think fixing it is a priority.

How to use custom auto brightness without crashing the tablet.
There are 2 options that should be followed, other settings can be adjusted to your liking.
1. In preferences, Check Use pulsed sensor mode. Basically this option will make the app read the sensor itself instead of listening the sensor value given from the system.
2. In advanced preferences, set the sensor update speed to either half sec or 1 sec. I tried normal, but the app won't read the sensor value, so probably the slow normal maximum setting only works if you get the sensor value from the system.
You can set disable system auto brightness. I recommend it before because the setting was a "hack" which was making the system read the brightness value thus the app can get that value. Right now it's recommended that you check the disable system auto brightness.
so from the galaxy s4 and now s5 there is a mode that activates in bright sunlight that is a super boost brightness mode, and so far i have only seen it work with the stock auto brightness setting checked
basically while under direct sunlight you will can toggle the auto brightness on/off and see the difference, it takes about 5 seconds for the super boost mode to kick in with auto checked
now i love Lux Lite which lets you customize auto brightness settings but it is unable to access the super boost mode, i tested this yesterday for several minutes, has anyone been able to get this to work?
Hello,
coming from a Samsung device where you could easily adjust the brightness of the integrated flashlight by longpressing the according flashlight-button, I wonder why this is not possible on the Mi Note 10 lite, or am I missing how to do it correctly. Is it really not possible to adjust the brightness of the flashlight? Are there any Xiaomi devices available at all that support this very basic feature?
i noticed that in the orange fox recovery it has a flashlight thats SUPER bright, i wish i can get miui that bright.
