i have a rooted nook color and i have the brightness set at about 50%. When ever it sleeps, goes to lock screen, or is rebooted, the brightness will revert back to the lowest possible setting. but the slider bar will say the previous value i had it set at. im running 1.0.1 and use autonooter to do the rooting. and have launcherPro for my launcher. any thing else you guys need to know?
thank you all for your help.
I have this problem as well. Any help would be appreciated!
Same deal
My nook is doing the same thing. My 1.1 is on my second partition rooted but besides that stock.

It seems when ever i set it down and look back at it its restarting. I cannot figure out why this is happening.
Any suggestions?

Your nook may be trying to do the 1.0.1 software update? Did you turn off the ota update?
It has something to do with the way the BN software shuts off the Wifi when the screen turns off. The work-around for this is to install Settings Profile Life and set a profile to turn off Wifi when the screen turns off.

I have this happen when I use Pulse. Not sure why. I can read a book for hours and have no issues. I bring up Pulse for a while and it reboots after about 5 minutes.
Hi all,
For some reason, my Hero's screen would not go pass the lowest brightness setting. At first I thought that the original screen was the issue, but I've replaced that and it's still happening. If I increase the brightness slightly, it would start flickering, and if I increase it a lot it would flickers and then goes out (but everything still works, I just have to blind slide the bar down to the lowest brightness setting). Also I can not see the boot screen/recovery/anything before the lockscreen, which means I can't flash a ROM without using ROM manager.
Has anyone ever had a problem like this or know what's causing the problem and how I can fix it? I appreciate all the help. Thank you!
We just picked up a used Droid for the dev department to play with. The backlight comes on during boot up but goes off as soon as it gets into the OS. Settings appear to be normal (full brightness). Any ideas?
hard reset didn't help. The backlight goes off at the exact moment the buzzer announces the os startup. (if that makes sense)
try using other roms..
Working on rooting and loading a rom right now. I took the phone home with me and discovered the backlight isn't out just very dim. It will change slightly when I move the brightness slider around.
OK, it's now running Steel Droid with the same issue. I have a bright screen in recovery and during boot and a very dim one once booted.
try to un-check the automatic brightness, and set it to full brightness...
if that doesnt work... might be a hardware related problem...
Did that already. Seems like an odd hardware issue. I have full backlight in recovery and during boot.
Here is a video of the issue http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RxHqN_lycG8
Stupid question: do you have auto-brightness active? If so, maybe your light sensor could be broken.

Auto-brightness is unchecked and the brightness is set to max. There is a very slight change to the brightness when I adjust the slider back and forth.
BTW. It is currently running CM7 with the same issue.
Wondering if anybody else has encountered any problems with the Nook HD brightness control.
My almost new unit now will not allow me to set the brightness above about 55%. Moving the slider control over 55% results in a dim screen - and to go back to a 'bright' screen requires me to move the slider back to 0% and then increase back up again. The 55% setting looks pretty bright which makes me wonder if the hw has somehow lost the backlight calibration.
The above occurs both under stock B&N and CM10 - so I don't think it's a CM problem - likely my HW.

I wasn't having the same issue but I was having a brightness problem on my HD today and this thread helped:

I flipped the bit from a 1 to a 0 and now my brightness is able to be controlled again. What was strange is that the "1" apparently represents the "auto" mode and when I went to settings, the box was not checked and not able to be toggled. So I'm guessing that something got funky and the bit flipped. The 0 certainly has fixed it though. I had to download the app for $3 to fix it but totally worth Leapinlar's efforts.
Here's one for you....
Auto brightness yesterday was working fine. Nice gradual increments and so on.
Today, it's a very jarring change. Almost like it moves 1/4 of the bar each jump
Not sure how to explain it.
Any way to reset whatever caused this?
