[Q]automatic backlight??? - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

what is the main use of this in CM settings? does it saves battery when activated??

These are options that allows you to set the automatic brightness. Phone will set the brightness according to ambient light.
Becouse of max brightness consume much electricity, allow the phone to decrease it when it's dark grant energy saving, then it saves battery.

Backlight levels & battery

I was just wandering what level most of you set your backlight to and how it affects battery life. Also, do you have auto-backlight set to 'on'?
Just trying to find a good balance between brightness and battery and so thought your experience would really help.
Thanks,
S.
Set to Auto here. No problems with battery life so haven't tried adjusting manually. I personally like the way it manages the back-light depending on ambient light

Control screen brightness at <5% batteru

This annoys me a lot. Once you hit 5% battery, it auto dims to below regular minimum brightness and removes your ability to adjust it.
Any way I can disable this "feature"?

Full Brightness is actually 96%

Can anyone also confirm this please? If you go to settings > Display > Uncheck "Auto" brightness setting > set the slider all the way to 100%. Then, go to Settings again > Battery > Optimize battery usage. Let it analyze and then read the first row. Does it also say "Screen brightness set to 96%, set it to auto to save power?".
On my previous P10 LITE, it says "Screen brightness set to 100%, set it to auto to save power". It's either a bug or some weird setting I don't know of that can let you select full brightness.
Show's 96% for me too.
Weird, but makes no difference to anything!
I was thinking that the phone never actually goes to 100% brightness and it might make a difference in very bright places. We can't find out for sure if this phone has a locked brightness for battery saving purposes or if it's some sort of bug. I've emailed them but I don't have high hopes of receiving an answer.
Ok, so I received an answer from Huawei. They said that if I turn off the Auto check box and turn the slider all the way up, it is at maximum brightness. I am not sure if they understood what I meant but that wouldn't be the first time .
Also, on a side note, they mentioned that if I use apps with white background, the brightness changes automatically in order to improve battery life. I thought it only did this when there was bright light outside. The strange thing is that this in-app brightness fluctuation happens even if I uncheck the auto setting, but only when I use a custom brightness setting and not full brightness.
Such a strange feature, I guess the "disable" option nowadays means only what they want it to mean...

Rog phone 3 peak brightness

How can I increase my ROG phone 3's peak brightness from 475 nits to 727 nits?
What I can find on the internet is it's achievable in MAX AUTO MODE.
But I can't figure out what MAX AUTO MODE is.....
If anyone can help, I'd be much grateful
Thanks
Max auto mode for brightness is where you turn on "adaptive brightness" option under Display settings - the brightness will then automatically adjust based on ambient lighting conditions . For e.g. in bright outdoor sunlight, brightness under Adaptive Brightness On settings may hit 700+ nits.
Manually (= Adaptive Brightness Off) the brightness may be maximum @ 400+ nits, when you slide the brightness slider to full.
Some custom kernels may give you option of adjusting the brightness manually to below & above the stock default levels; e. g. manually ramping up to 700+ nits or so.

Question Flashing maximum screen brightness

Hello again.
Does anyone else find that the maximum brightness of the screen tends to dim from a "normal" maximum heat to an overexposed one? It happens that I am using my mobile very frequently on the street and despite having the brightness at maximum, the screen is usually dark. But from time to time as the Operating System detects that there is a lot of sunlight and increases the brightness much more (that's precisely what I'm looking for, use that maximum brightness manually, not automatically). I can't find a way to adjust that brightness value, I thought "Dark Aware" would help me but nothing to do with it. Any way to turn up that brightness?
