Dim mode brighter than lowest brightness - LG G Watch R

Hi all,
I am using Wear Mini launcher where you can adjust the screen brightness with a slider. When set to minimum, the active brightness level is actually lower than the dimmed mode level.
How is this possible? Is there a way to set the dimmed brightness level? I am using a workaround where I use a custom watchface and have a big black circle over the watchface with opacity 50% when at dimmed, but notifications come over this and are shown at normal dimmed level.
anyone encountered this or knows how to set dimmed level?
Cheers!

Yes, brightness works only for active mode, not for dim mode
Some Watchface like this from Smartwatch Bureaux have 2 brightness setting for active et for dim mode.

Have the same problem, its the only reason why I have always on off

Sorry but, how do i activate dim mode? Can i always turn dim mode "on"?

Just updated my apps and the "Skymaster Pilot Watch Face" had a brightness setup in 6 level for dim mode. Level 1 is almost screen off (I'm using level 3), so very good. And choice for normal or minimal face in dim mode. With low brightness level we can keep color mode

Clock app brightness levels

I just received a Desktop Dock yesterday with he hope that my N1 could replace my old, very bright plug-in alarm clock which lights up the whole room at night.
Unfortunately the N1 is at least as bright, if not brighter when docked, even with the "Green display" which comes on after holding the brightness button.
Is there any way to lower the brightness of this app further while it is running? I have tried the brightness slider in settings and this seems to have no effect. If I can't make it any dimmer I'll have to go back to my old alarm clock!
Also, is there any way to turn off the backlight on the "Soft buttons" at the bottom of the screen? They always seem to glow white!
If it helps, I'm running CM 5.0.6
Thanks!
Try hitting the clock brightness button once to turn down screen brightness completely. Once the screen is dimmed, hold it to get the green clock. That doesn't light my room in any way.
Cheers.
As mentioned I've already tried this and it still lights up the room. Not to a massive degree but it is still lighter than my alarm clock.
Any other suggestions?
I had just this problem! There are some free alarm clock apps in the Market that let you change the color/hue/brightness, and for a while I was making do with one of them with the font color set to a very dim grey.
Now I use "Bedside" and "LEDs Hack", both from the same developer. The latter is free, and automatically turns off the LED lights when I plug my phone in. The former was $1.50 well spent, and automatically mutes the phone, dims the screen, and displays a truly dim alarm clock when I plug my phone in. Both restore things back as soon as I unplug my phone in the morning. Both are very configurable. I can't recommend them highly enough.
They sound cracking, I'll give them a go tonight. Thanks!
Press the dim button to lower brightness then hold on to it to put it in clock mode it will be really dim but I don't like how the buttons are still lit :/

Do you have the auto brightness setting off?
I have it on, and find that the green clock screen is just right (and a lot dimmer than our alarm clock light which I've now switched off.
LEDs Hack is great for taking the LEDs off!

Brightnes issue in Gingerbread 2.3.3

Does anybody noticed an issue with Auto Brightness?
Sometimes when i turn the screen on the brightness is automatically set to maximum and it doesn't scale down even if i'm in a dark room.

Sometimes my screen is set to max as soon as I turn it on but it returns to normal right after.
the issue i mentioned appears expecially after rebooting. the brightness goes at the maximum level and does not auto adjust.
Yeah, I have noticed a number of strange behaviors on 2.3.3. In fact, I have not yet seen it work properly auto-brightness mode on, It does one of the following:
-Brightness goes to low and stays there until I turn off auto
-Brightness goes to 100% and stays there until I turn off auto
-Brightness flips back and forth between low and 100% about every 20 seconds (instantly, not gradually).
None of the above seem to have anything to do with what the ambient light level is, but I could be wrong about that.
I also noticed that (Android app) Tasker doesn't seem to be able to control the brightness anymore.
Motorola Droid.
The last time i tried Auto Brightness was when i first bought my N1 and it didn't work at all. Been set at a level i like ever since and now i have no compunction to try Auto again.

[Q]Change brightness on dimmed mode?

There is any way to lower the brightness on dimmed watchface?
When I'm using low brightness level, the dimmed mode is more brighter than the normal watchface.
Any tip or hack about that?
Cinema mode will turn watch face off completely however you could try a reset as it sounds like your screen brightness setting is not working as it should.

Note 9/8 max screen brightness override in the sun with autobrightness switched off

Hey guys so I need to know if there is a sensor issue.I don't use auto brightness no more because if you go in the sun the brightness overrides itself to brighter than max brightness and it is the reason why I've had burn in a few times so far and had to get the screen replaced. But I've also noticed that with auto brightness off but you have the brightness maxed out and go in the sun or shine an led torch at the sensor the screen will kick up to override max brightness sun mode just like when using auto brightness. Is this normal behaviour for the note 9.i know the note 8 goes into ultra bright mode even with auto brightness off ,because I saw a thread on reddit discussing this issue is this a new feauture from oreo update or did it always do that ?
If it's a new feature its bad because out side in tge sun using full brightness in manual mode is pretty safe if you don't keep it that bright too long.but the fact that it will kick into ultra brightness that's an issue that will cause burn in.
Can you guys please test your phone using an led torch shined at the sensor or go in the sun thanks guys

You need to be in manual brighmess mode and crank the slider to max for the max sun mode to kick in if you go into the sun .samsung are forcing this override brightness on us now This can failure burn in
For me, if adaptive brightness is on, whatever brightness I try and set while in sun light, it forces the "Maximised" brightness but if I turn off adaptive brightness and change the brightness manually, it stays how I set it, even in direct sun.
Running N960FPUS2CSB1.
My note 8 and note 9 both do it on the same uk oreo fw.i went to store with my led torch 10 min ago and tested the phones in the store and they all do this.if you have the slider set to max.if you have the slider even slightly off max it won't do it.it must be max

Brightness change when i touch screen on dark mode or low brightness? Is this a probl

Hello
please guide me if this is a screen issue or some sort of setting ?
In dark mode or low brightness, when i touch the screen, the brightness vibrate or give me a feedback like flickering or vibrating. It appears only on dark mode.
I want to know if this is a screen issue or a software setting and how i change it back.
The anti flicker option doesn't help. Auto brightness is disabled
Thank you.
