[Q] Problem with brightness - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all! I have problem setting brightness manually. When i set brightness level at minimum, the screen goes completely black. Hard reset and change ROM don't fix the problem. The phone is a nexus 4 :fingers-crossed:
EDIT: looking at youtube i discovered this video...the problem is the same http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dvgt17sKQsU

Galaxy S2 brightness lowers by itself?..

Hi Annoying problem with my galaxy s 2, the brightness randomly lowers by itself. Say one time ill lock the screen with the lock button, unlock it 10 minutes later and the brightness has dropped and I'll have to put it back up again manually.
I've tried resets and firmware upgrades but that doesn't work.
I DO NOT HAVE automatic brightness on.
Any ideas?
you might accidentally use statusbar to lower brightness, I did that when i was using stock roms. keep you hand away from holding the statusbar
Oooo that might be it, I'll try avoid now I know it can happen and see if it happens again now.
Cheers

Is this Android, App or Hardware

Hi Everyone,
So I noticed not to long back that my phone has been changing brightness without the brightness bar moving. For instance I unlocked my phone moments ago and my screen was very bright. I went into my brightness settings and looked at the bar was set at 60%. As soon as I touch the brightness bar the screen dims back down to where it's supposed to be.
Now I am thinking this is purely a software issue but I am still a little worried. I have a Galaxy S3 Optus AU. It is running the LF2 firmware and is not rooted or modified. I have turned off auto brightness and power saving for the screen and this problem still persists.
Has anyone else suffered any such issues with there device?

sry my fault...read to quick
hmm the only thinng i can imagine on the go is...has been your battery been on a very low amount of percentage
because i think the power saving mode is changing the brightnes on its own
No the battery was at 90% when it happened last. I have factory reset the device to see if it fixes the issue.
OK the issue is still happening. Altho I have now noticed that it happens when unlocking the phone. If I re lock the phone and then unlock it. It's back to normal.
Well...even stock firmware is not protected to crash or do sth it shouldnt do by the way
so think about a clean install of the rom or a software update this might fix your problem

Brightness Keeps Lowering on Screen Off

Hey Guys,
I'm having a weird issue where the screen brightness keeps changing itself every time I turn the screen off. I tried disabling Smart Actions & Automate It (tasker-like app), changing the brightness in the display setting, unchecking the display power saver option. In all cases if I set the brightness to 100% after turning the screen off and then on again the brightness will be down to like 10% or so, although the indicators I have will still tell me the screen is at 100%. Any ideas?
Thanks.

Me too, it only happens randomly though, i thought it had something to do with the"Lux" app i use to control brightness.
Do u use any screen protectors? It could b interfering with the light sensor
Sent from my ICS Moto Razr XT910
There is a screen protector but this is happening when brightness is not set to Auto. It's set to 80% and every time I hit the power button and then turn the screen back on it dims to like 0-10%. I've tried closing all running processes and it still happens. I also tried resetting the phone and it initially wasn't doing this but once I setup all the programs it does, so it must be somehow related to a non-running process program configuration. Any ideas?
Thanks
Edit: Found out it was the Lightflow app, uninstalled it and no more brightness dimming issue.

interesting. I had that app installed for a while, maybe it messed something up that uninstalling didn't fix. I guess a hard reset is in my future. sigh.
