When I set timeout screen to a specific time than approximately 10 seconds before timeout takes place the brightness of the screen gets dimmed.
Is it possible to set the brightness of this (I don't know how to call this)?
Is my question not clear? There must be a way to change this. Maybe by users, but probably by developers.
I found out where to change this pre lockscreen brightness dimmer settings.
Go to settings/power saver/brightness.
There you can change it in steps of 10%, 20%, 30%, 50%.
You can also change the starting time: 15, 30, 60 seconds.
I normally have my brightnes settings set to 20% (if you choose auto-settings, pre brightness settings don't work)
I rather have this pre lockscreen brightness settings set to 5% or 1% or screen off if possible.
Is there a way to make this happen?
It would be perfect to use because once the HDMI cable is attached the screen will never turn off.
Only by pressing the power button, but this will also terminate the external mirrored image.

Excellent! Just what I was looking for but didn't think it would exist. Thanks for helping!

how much diffrence between Auto backlight&manual in battery consuming
is there any experience ???
nobody knows?
One week ago, I changed the option for backlight to 5 min instead of normal 30sec. I even changed the backlight on while making calls (tweak cabfile). I don't notice any more batteryconsumption. This is a overall experience.
I think more brightness on the display will be more battery consuming than backlight settings.

Thanks! I think you are right
What ever option you choose that cuts Electricity flow saves Batts.
So yes turning the screen all the way down when only doing calls and at night helps a lot!
Note also that the auto-dim function doesn't ever dim the light right down (no matter how dark it gets) - the lowest it reaches is equivalent to the manual brightness level 3.

So I just got Tasker and I've been playing around with the light sensor and I've noticed something strange. If I set the display brightness is below 12% (12% is the lowest brightness setting in display settings), the light sensor stops working. Has anyone else noticed this?
It would be nice to be able to set the display brightness to 0% to save battery and still be able to use the light sensor. I'm running Perception 10.1 with glitterballs OC/UV kernel.
(I'm using Extended Controls to set and see the brightness %)

The lowest I could go is 8% using brightness level widget. If I am not wrong, 0% would be screen off. U could use "screen filter" app to further reduce brightness at night so it does not strain eyes. This lets u go as dark as u want, even upto literally where u cannot see anything on screen.
I noticed with my HTC One that when I turn the optimize battery mode, the screen timeout is almost always 15 sec even though I set it to 1 min. The same thing with light adjusted to automatic and changes the next time I check. Is this because I turn the optimize batter mode?

Yes
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"?
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...
