Hey guys so problem is my screen flickers a bit when I turn the brightness to max. So is there anyway to set the maximum brightness level through build.prop or somewhere else so that when I move the brightness slider it shouldn't go too high.

Is the a way or an app to turn down the brightness level beyond the lowest default. I have used some apps and os setting. What I have noticed is that at f the lowest brightness just before the screen timed out it would dim down a little bit more...i like to get to that level without phone being rooted if I can. Thanks
I use dimmer it lowers it to the possible lowest value of 10 from default lowest 30.
Colorfix from Voodoo team looks like can achieve even further tweaking of the brightness level.
Thanks for the fast reply. I will check out dimmer. When I said "default"...default brightness level the phone were set to initially.
Was trying an APP call Dimmer Lite and it could not retain screen brightness profile with level lower than 10%. Error out saying the OS does not allow it.
Is it true that 2.1 Eclair will not let you turn down screen brightness level below 10% ?
Hi! My question is: Is there a BIG difference between leaving lowest brightness setting and auto-brightness? If so, how much? (Hours, battery usage, etc)
Thanks! I hope this thread will be informative for everyone..
Auto-brightness consumes more battery because it is constantly changing brightness, if you want the best battery power just use the lowest brightness
as aaitken said auto brightness consumes more battery . its better to use low brightness and use a brightness control widget from market and change the brightness manually when required

If you have a stock firmware, or a stock based ROM, you can adjust brightness anywhere you can access the notification bar. This is built into TouchWiz. Just hold your finger on the notification bar until you see the pull-down shade, and slide your finger left or right to adjust brightness.
I leave my brightness on lowest and adjust as necessary with this, i.e. when I'm in a bright setting, and need to turn my brightness up.
Also there is brightness options in AOKP with the toggles and in CM9 (and most other AOSP roms) as a power save widget bala_gamer's option's also a good way
Thank you very much for your helpful answers..
How can I change the brightness levels on the s3? I would like to have a lower brighter level than the minimum level and be able to lower all with the brightness bar. I tried going into framework-res.apk and lowering some values for auto brightness in array.xml but that didn't work. It just gave me a black screen and sent me to the lock screen whenever I tried to adjust the brightness. I know that there are apps that can lower screen brightness but I would just like to do it with the brightness adjuster and save a little memory. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
I found an answer to my question. It involves going into service.jar, system.apk, and SystemUI.apk and making some changes. Found the information in this thread

Although, this thread is for the Samsung Galaxy SL, much of the info appears the same for the S3. Will be testing and updating later
Or u can use "Eyesaver" app its wery nice
Since I got the a21 I noticed that when I'm out with auto brightness on it adapt to the sun but once I'm home the brightness slider goes all the way down
and pretty much stay there unless I go near a light.
Is there a way to recalibrate the auto brightness?
As per the title, is it possible to stop the screen brightness going into 'boost' mode when outside, whilst keeping autobrightness on? Often when it's not that bright outside, the screen defaults to maximum brightness which washes it out and wastes battery
This is typically only possible with a custom kernel.
