I have a problem with the brightness function on my GS3. I have installed Omega V26 (JB) and did a good wipe (format data / format system / factory reset / wiped caches and fixed permissions). But somehow the brightness function isn't working well.
As soon as i've locked my GS3 and turn it back on, the brightness is at it's lowest, turning it on manually than it's fine as long as I don't lock my phone. I tried everything (disabled power saving option, smart stay, disable auto brightness, adjusting the browser brightness, installed third pary app like auto lux etc. The funny thing is, i don't have these problems on ICS based roms. Any ideas?
My advice is to ask in the thread of the Rom you downloaded. Maybe someone in there can help

Ok, will do. Thanks!
I am experiencing an issue (on all custom Sammy ROMs) where the screen will dim whenever I enter the email app. It brightens again upon leaving the app, or upon looking at the email app settings, but returns to the dim level when I leave the settings. This doesn't happen on AOSP based ROMs (until recently I was on AOKP), but I can't go back to those as they lack the NFC support I need for work at the moment.
Does anybody know why this could be happening, or how to resolve it?
I'm not sure if this used to happen when I was running the stock firmware, but its been so long since I did that that I actually cannot remember how that worked

Disable energy saving mode.
In fact you don't have to disable everything in power saving just the last two.
Settings - power saving - uncheck background colour
Auto-rotate didn't work on a fresh install on LineageOS, though it works on stock.
The solution (found on the linked page) was to add the following lines to /system/build.prop
Code:
log.tag.launcher_force_rotate=VERBOSE
lockscreen.rot_override=true
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-6p/general/how-to-enable-auto-rotate-lockscreen-t3245988
When I installed LineageOS and discovered the problem, I could never find a solution and eventually gave up—settling on manual rotation instead. But I managed to come across the solution recently while researching how to make the lock-screen rotation match the selected angle. That is, the lock-screen fix resolved the auto-rotation problem as a side-effect.
I was going to post this as a reply to one of the threads I previously found that mention the problem but now I can't find them... You'd think I'd be able to find the other threads just as easily now as before... Surely I didn't dream all that, right? Hehe.
Judging from what I read previously (and the fact that I experienced it), this appears to be an ongoing issue with no known solution. So, I made this thread. I hope that is acceptable.
Have the same issue on RedMi with LineageOS but this still doesn't solve the problem
Hi Folks,
at the Beginning i installed yalp Store, to download from playstore the App "Sensores Multitool". Its good to check if your Accelerometer work or is damaged.
Here it works but the linageos behaviour did not!
I had the issue the my Desktop, Main Screen did not turn.
Lets try to observe the issue and nail it down.
First step: Activate Auto Rotation in the Bar at the Top, do not know the right Notation for that. Its the Quick Navigation.
Then you have a Setting in your "Settings" -> "Display", like Screen rotating.
Play with Lock Screen Orientation (activate it and check if the Lock Screen (where you enter your Pin..) change Orientation if you activate and deactivate it!). Here it does.
Check if you have Settings open and your Settings twist if you rotate your phone physically... - here it works too!
Maybe you set, as i do your Desktop/Start Page/Main Screen/Trebuchet to keep an Orientation . Press and Hold your Desktop, like you would change the background image or install widgets. Now you check out its gear wheel Settings.. and check if there is another Setting to enable or disable Turns/rotation.
If that is set, your Start Page, Desktop or Main-Screen will force back to your choose Orientation, which seems that the auto rotation did not work.
Oh i think the Lineageos official Name of that Program is: Trebuchet.
Works a treat thanks a million!!
Thanks Silhalnor, this fixed the problem on a Note 3 using LineageOS where the auto rotation stops working after a day or so and requires the phone be rebooted.
Must be a bug in the lockscreen code that makes the orientation sensor go AWOL.
After two years i have the same issue on my Note 4 whit currently lineageos 17.1.
I have to reboot my phone to be return all works normally.
It's another lineageos bug ?!??!?!? Omg......
I was on pe plus for a long time and had night mode (it filters blue light) scheduled from 1 am to 6 am.
Today i installed miui 11.0.5 after wiping caches system and data. Everything is working great but exactly at 1:00 am my screen dimmed to that exact night mode setting. Im unable to find any toggle to switch it off. The only feature that come close to this is reading mode in miui and it is also turned off. I think it has something to do with me restoring the google backup of settings from previous rom but still need a fix to turn off this night mode.
Yes you are right its from backup setting and there is no option i mean no visible setting in miui 11 to switch it off...lolz its funny by the way

Yeah man i also found it hilarious. For now i have temporarily fixed this by scheduling reading mode on that exact time with 0 intensity.

The ones that didn't catch the 11.0.7.0 update, and that was a lot of users, have a longer change log.
And they still didn't solved Mi Sound Enhancer and Bluetooth peripherals collaboration albeit big part of population have exactly those peripherals!
January ?? It's a joke ?
Why they don't have the security update of february.... ?

If you just look a little bit further than your nose you might understand the reasons for delay.
I was not expecting an update this soon since many has to stay at home in China.
I updated yesterday and for some reason my stock wallpaper (the one with the mountain) used to be dynamic and change throughout the day (sunrise, sunset, night, etc) and now it's fixed on the night time, if I disable dark mode the wallpaper goes back to being daytime. So it's pretty much a static wallpaper instead of a dynamic one, is there a way to re-activate the dynamic one?

I believe that factory reset will solve Your problems, unfortunately.

Just did that, at first it seemed to be working fine but after setting up the phone at some point I disabled dark mode and enabled again it went back to the same thing.

Did You look at \Settings > Account & Sync > Xiaomi Cloud > Home screen backup ?!
If not, then "old" and "broken" Home screen is always restored so my advice will be to delete those backups and then try again and see will You have any issue with this!

I'm pretty sure I had no backup because I had to setup everything from scratch again, google did restore apps, contacts and such, but home screen, system settings and such I had to do from scratch.

In Your place I would check this more closely because if I remember correctly this restore behavior is set as"default" for "Home screen" and this item is constantly restored during ROM upgrade or reset.
Just checked, it's disabled. Right now if I disable dark mode the background stays at night time (its almost 8pm so that's normal) i'm going to check tomorrow to see if the problem persists.

Thank you.
Just checked the issue with the wallpaper, if I disable dark mode the wallpaper works just fine and cycles throughout the day as it should, as soon as I enable the dark mode it forces the wallpaper into night mode. Happened with this update, factory reset didn't fix it and I tried to look for an option but couldn't find anything. Extremely annoying but hopefully it gets fixed.

Hmm maybe this is logical and intended behavior?!
If You look more closely if one activate dark mode then whole OS "thinks" that You are actually using Your phone during night time and You have exactly this kind of behavior!
I believe that there lies Your "problem" and in fact You don't have problem at all and this function works like it should i believe!
