[Q] brightness help - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

is there any way to tweak my brightness up any help

to make it brighter you mean ?? the AMOLED screen is really bright why would you want it brighter ??
go into settings > display > brightness > make sure automatic brightness is off and brightness is set to the max..
also if you are using the latest speedmod kernel that has option in to tweak the brightness. if you have it go into recovery and check all tweaks are off ..
other than that i dont think there is much more you can do.

Auto adjust backlight...can we tweak?

Peoples....has anyone found a way to "tweak" the auto adjust backlight setting?? Would be nice to be able to set the light sensor to a pre-determined value so that it is always that value greater than the ambiant light...
Why??...well, I would like to continue using the same auto setting (saves battery, etc) but have it just a little bit brighter than what it is doing automatically at the moment.
I'm sure there is a way....would be great to have this in Shaps AC or Diamond Tweak....hmmm, perhaps post there to....
Thanks all
Not sure if this helps, but if you untick the box for auto brightness then you can slide the brightness control up and down to set the base setting then re tick the auto box. Let me know if this is what you are wanting. If not just ignore me

Nice one, but unfortunetely does not have the desired effect (just checked)....
HOWEVER, this would be a great why to build it into the system i.e. manually set the level thats works best for you in the abient lighting of the moment....then set auto adjust to keep that differential...hmmm...
I would love to find a way to calibrate that. The backlight in darkness is too high for my eyes. When I set it manually I can decrease the brightness to a comfortable degree, but as soon as I turn automatic mode back on, it gets higher.
Agree

Nope, Advanced Config's light sensor tweaks are only for the new Phone app.

[Q]Temsek KANG and auto brightness

Hello,
I've just installed Temasek KANG CM on my O2X along with the Vadonka powersave kernel and i noticed the the automatic display brightness setting is kinda dim all the time. I read that CM should alow you to adjust the automatic setting in CM settings -> Display, but i see no such options there.
Is this intended? And if so is there any workaround to this?
I'm using the same config as you, but i'd say auto brightness is good enough.
To manually change you have 2 options, either use Power Control Widget with Auto Brightness button (bad part - it only has 3 steps) or from settings : Settings -> Display -> Brightness (1st options in list) -> uncheck Auto Bright and use the slider.
when i checked my phone with phone tester it light sensor says "waiting for data".using the temasek kang with ironkrnl.does anybody else have the same situation??is it the problem with the rom or my hardware??i haven't checked it with stock rom....

how to edit gamma settings?

Hi,
I am using ParanoidAndroid ICS rom, Everything is superb apart from the black clipping screen. Of course I only notice the black clipping in a dark room, whereas in daylight the screen seems perfect.
In the PA rom under settings > Advanced > Screen > there is screen gamma but i can not edit it or even choose it. I'm assuming its been disabled, is there a way to enable this so I can edit the gamma settings or is there an alternative way to edit gamma settings. if there is, can anyone please share it.
Thanks in advance.

Is auto brightness working good ?

I seach many threads but in my case it works but I have a probleme for having the REAL auto brightness with my Z3C.
I mean... If I disable the auto brightness in display settings an put the maximum brigtness it's very high, and when I check the auto brightness and put the brightness (notification bar) to maximum and switch between auto and not auto... YES there is a difference, the auto mode is less bright, so yes the auto brightness option works because i see a difference... I gess
BUT... at night when the room is COMPLETLY dark (yes because I sleep in the dark lol) the brightness is very bright for me, too bright. And I go to the notification bar and put it at less... but wait! This not my definition of "auto brightness" if I have to manage it. For me (maybe I'm weird, tell me) if auto brightness is enabled, when the light sensor see a COMPLETE DARK room the brightness should be at minimum, am I right???
And, with all my previous smartphones, the auto mode was with the brightness bar in notifications bar and if I check the auto mode, the brightness setting bar is desabled... and if I setup the brighness bar, the auto brightness check is disabled... etc
So why my Z3C haven't an real auto brightness? Why can I enable the option in settings but set the brightness bar too? Why in a complete dark the brightness is too high and not at minimum? Because in the morning in the dark if I set it at minimum, later I have to set it more bright because it's too low at the day ligh... BUT I'M IN AUTO MODE IN THE DISPLAY SETTINGS!!!
It's like I have the auto mode and the right to set the brightness too... not logic! If I check the auto mode it's because I don't want to setup brighness bet the device must do it for me like my others phones...
Is it normal?
Thank you for help...
Its normal, auto brightness on the Z3 has a very narrow range of auto adjustment. So exactly like you are saying its either too bright at night or too dark in bright light. Do yourself a favor and use the app LUX, I think there is a free version to try. My auto brightness now works as it should, bright enough to read in sunlight and dim at night so I'm not blinded. You can tweak the values for every type of.light you are in, works great.
Do you have Lollipop on your phone?
Do you know that in Lollipop there is no Auto-Brightness anymore, there's "Adaptive Brightness", and it scales less, which explains your experience (and you're not the only one)?

It's was called something with "adaptive" in Kitkat, too.
You can just set the slider to the minimum, then it won't be too bright in the dark and it'll get bright enough in sunlight...
