Any mod or tutorial to disable auto brightness when using camera app?
The one gets pretty hot when auto sets itself full 100% brightness.

Has anyone else noticed their D3 on stock ROM min brightness is 11%? I noticed since getting my D3 that it has always been pretty bright, even at min brightness level. And using the brightness toggle from Beautiful Widgets, I saw that the two options were 11% and 100%. Is this just the widget, or is the stock ROM set up to keep brightness at this minimum level?
I use my phone in the dark a lot and it kills my eyes to look at it for too long, so I'm wondering if anyone knows how to get the brightness down any lower without switching to a custom ROM. I am rooted, of course.
Thanks for any ideas/solutions.

Brightness Widget Backlight, in the market should work. It's has configurable steps that can go down to 1%. I'm using it on CM7 and can get it lower than the lowest brightness setting.
You can lower it with Quick Settings, but a reboot changes it back. The lower brightness appears to be used when the display dims from inactivity. If you are already on the lowest factory brightness setting it can still dim some more. Thats the only purpose I see of it.
I use Brightness Level from the market and it allows you to go lower than stock does. I believe that it keeps settings after reboot as well.
Sweet, awesome replies.
Lookup screen filter, and should be on the market if I remember correctly.

I just installed and tried Brightness Level and it doesn't allow brightness levels to go below the lowest stock level. I see no purpose to that widget since the Power Widget for android allows brightness level adjustment.
I'd love something that allows for true adjustment from 1% to 100% on the stock ROM.

Screen filter rocks - been using it since I got my D3 back in November.
I wasn't satisfied with the stock auto brightness feature on my Tab Pro 8.4 (too bright at night, sometimes too low in day time). I installed Lux Auto Brightness which provides much more control over the screen brightness. With my current settings (Auto day/night profile switch, dynamic brightness adjustment), the default night settings work extremely well but the default day settings seem too bright.
Has anyone tried to optimize the settings of this app on a Tab Pro 8.4? If so, could you post your settings and adjustments?
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...
When I got my TAB S2 it was with 5.0.2 and I was able to increase or decrease how auto brightness works with a slider in notification tray. After flashing T710XXU2BOJ1 (5.1.1) if I use the slider with auto brightness turned on it will turn off the auto brightness This is a bit annoying because I like to use auto brightness and now can correct it if it's not doing a good job :/ Is this a 5.1.1 feature or a bug and I should do a factory reset?
P.S. If I do a factory reset on rooted firmware will I loose root ?
Ok, to answer my question it's a bad feature off 5.1.1. Will have to do for now, maybe 6.0.1 some day will fix it

The whole point of auto brightness is just that "auto" the slider is disabled because the OS adjusts the brightness based on the light in the enviroinment.
If you are in a dark room it will dim, outside it will go bright. If you move the slider the device assumes you then want to use manual brightness and disables the auto brightness and then adjusts the brightness of the screen based on where the slider is positioned.
This is the way Samsung devices work. (I have had several over the years and currently have a Note 4, a Tab S 8.4, and this Tab S2)
How are you expecting the slider to function when auto brightness enabled?
The slider is suppose to be for manual brightness.
The auto brightness slider still allows for manual adjustment on 5.0.2.
-5 to +5 to set the level to your liking whilst still maintaining auto brightness mode.

Exactly, any way I could have this with 5.1.1? Maybe some xposed module?

I think I recall there being some form of auto brightness audjustment fix in the downloadable modules. I can't link you as I don't have it installed currently.
Couldn't find it ?
Whenever I'm in direct sunlight my phone will crank up the contrast/gamma . This is particularly noticeable in application like reddit sync dark theme. I'm currently running on 7.1.1 and with image enhancement turned off.
