Hi all,
Is there an option to have the screen dim before it is turned off? It's really annoying that while reading it is turned off all the time..

Don't think so all you can do is setting display screen wake I put mine on 2 minutes

Is it possible to do something to turn off the key lights for the galaxy s? When I'm reading at night time in bed I can use screen filter to dim the screen, but then the lights on the keypad almost blind me!
Please tell me there is a way to turn them off!
looking for something similar too.
Not till developers can dive in to the kernel source i am affraid

Hey on my Xperia Z stock rom nothing flashed, when it is in standby (screen off) randomly the screen glows and does not stop, like the screen is still off but it's like the back light has come on? is this normal? seems to be a power wasting thing to me. unless i look at it from a slight angel (during the day) i can not actually tell it's on, i'm assuming this is why my screen is using 60+% of my battery is there a fix for this?
Are you using any power saving mode?

Stamina mode.
I have the exact same thing happen, and it is definitely a pain as like you say you can only notice it when looking at an angle, and as I have a flip case on mine I only notice while charging. It is just a case of pressing the power button twice to turn off but that is obviously only when you notice it's doing it! lol
I use stamina mode on mine (which is great) but not sure if this is anything to do with the backlight being left on as it only does it sometimes?
I had this issue when i first got my phone ,and not anymore.Not sure how it solved cause i did lot of factory reset and flashing firmwares.
Are you using light flow or any third party apps?

I get this too. I get it when it's locked and it comes back on. Also when I unlock the screen sometimes this happens and I have to turn the screen off and on again to fix it.
Happening here also but not often. I thought it was low battery mode but happens when it's disabled as well.

No i'm not using any third party light apps, seems like this may be an actual bug if multiple people are experiencing it
I have only done one reset/repair to fix the LED notification light bug.
Hope this helps
I know how to fix this. I have an xperia z1 so im not sure if my problem is the same but i use my phone as an alarm so i notice at night the screen is glowing while its standby. If you go to settings or maybe you have it in quick settings go to brightness and deactivate "adapt to lighting conditions" then it should be a black screen woth no glow in standby mode
My screen flickers sometimes in the power saver mode n also when my brightness is set to about less than 40%. Should I be worried or it can be fixed in the software update? Anyone else with the same problem?

Can you check for me if changing to another keyboard solves this flicker? I too noticed this ever so slight flicker but only when using stock keyboard if I change over to Swiftkey then it doesn't happen for me. It looks like its the screen flickering but in actual fact it seems to be just the keyboard area of the screen.
Report back if it fixes the issue for you. If it does then obviously this is software and we needn't worry.
sprint htc one user here. stock not rooted.
ive seen this obvious abrupt dimming since day one (had since launch). i use swiftkey only and no other keyboard.
when the screen is not in use i still see the screen dim. it dims abruptly as opposed to a gradual dim. i chalked it up to software that may be included in an update.
does NOT do it ALL the time though....
Well I tried with SwiftKey it didn't work. It's not just the keyboard are that flickers. It's the whole screen like trying to adjust to a particular brightness. If the brightness is set to about 70% there is no flicker

I don't know if others are having the same problem but I have a stock phone not rooted and active notifications enabled
Every time I place my phone upside down and then a few seconds later turn it over it will show the time..no problem...everytime
On the other hand if I leave my phone aside faced up ..after the screen goes black I would say 8 times out of 10 the clock shows up when I pick up the phone.. I'm assuming the sensors know that the phone has been picked up a d activate the clock display....sometimes the screen remains black even after picking it up and giving it a gentle or hard shake.....bug ?

I too am experiencing this especially when there are no notifications which seems like a waste to me.
Can you guys check your sensors? Maybe something's broken. I'm having sensor issues myself, and have noticed inconsistent notification behavior as well.

That's normal behavior.
Ok so every phone ive had i turn off the auto brightness and crack it all the way up.
Then when im using the phone and i haven't touched anything the screen will go from 100% brightness to 50% and then a few seconds later (if i don't touch the screen) the screen turns off.
Well ive noticed this only happens sometimes. (uselly when im at work it works) But 90% of the time, ill be using the phone then after some inactivity the screen dims from 100% to like 98% if your not looking for it you wouldn't even notice. Then a few seconds later turns all the way off.
I have smart stare or w/e it is turned off.

Noticed the same problem here. With auto brightness on dimming works correctly, but I never find auto brightness does what I want, so I usually don't use it. Very annoying problem! Hopefully Samsung fixes this issue soon!
I'm facing the same issue. My phone goes to screen off mode without dimming, which is very annoying. Otherwise, the phone is pretty good.
