[Q] non-root: even lower display brightness?

anyone know of a way to get the HTCONE/sprint non-rooted phone to go lower in display brightness?
if i use it as an alarm clock on my nightstand it lights up the entire room on lowest brightness.
thanks!

Look for an app called "Lux Auto Brightness" on the Play Store. There is a lite version that you can try out. It's allowed me to go in the negative brightness and it works pretty well.

thanks. don't suppose this will work with locale...
maybe i'll have to write my own pluggin

I haven't used Lux but I really like Screen Filter for the same job: it has a huge range of dimming up to total blackness and can turn off the capacitative button backlight (requires turning the screen off and back on) which is a big deal when viewing a dimmed screen in a dark room. And the full version is free and ad-free as well.

thanks again for your replies. looks like Lux works with locale.
but... it's not quite working for me yet (setting to negative values of brighness at certain times, etc doesn't seem to work)
i'll keep trying. thankfully there is a trial version

[Q]How toDisable full auto brightness using camera

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

[Q] screen backlight perameters.

I use my Z3C at night quite often and find that the backlighting is too bright even turned all the way down. The adaptive lighting option does not bring it bright enough durring daylight use if left un the low setting. Is there any way to adjust the backlight other than a 3rd party app?

Do you mean other than the brightness slider?

Install lux and set it to adjust brightness automatically depending on ambiant light.
Set it to -10 or 5% with 1 lux and 100% with 100. Etc. It take time to adjust it but will save your eyes and battery.
Donation isn't necessary but bring some good options.
Works like default adaptive brightness but with more steps (if you desire), darker or lighter...

After a few days with Lux, it is much better. It allows the screen to dim and brighten way past stock settings. I really like the night filter mode. When i am outside and check my phone i am no longer getting blasted by a spotlight bright screen!

[APP][SHARE]Velis Auto Brightness

Good Day everyone!
Just wanna share this awesome app, for those people (like me!) who are annoyed about the new "adaptive brightness" option to our LP rom (which is i think aint that responsive), for those who thinks auto-brightness is much better. Then this is the app for us..brings back auto-brightness plus alot of customizations.
thanks goes to the developer..:thumbup:

pretty neat app.
The Problem with new firmware for the Z2 is that the minimum Screen brightness is to high.
So automatic Brigthness on Minimum works quite fine in all situations no need for this app.

I installed and deleted because I think lux auto brightness is better than this

Request: Module to lower screen brightness below minimum slider value

When using dc dimming on my amoled phone the brightness is way to high at night at lowest slider value.
While with pwm its a lot better i still would prefer it less bright (anyway no solution because flicker is annoying at lowest brightness).
Im pretty sure i am not at the lowest possible brightness level.
Unluckily beside some third party apps which running in the background and overlay a black layer i couldnt find anything useful even tough tons of people looking for a solution.
Your battery would thank you aswell .
Please can anyone make a module which sets the lowest brigthness to 1 on boot up ?
Thanks.

Don't think there is currently a module available. Having the same problem with my second mobile. The only App that I found and which is working as expected is for me:
Darker (Screen Filter) - Apps on Google Play
Darker can lower your screen brightness to extremely low levels.
play.google.com
Maybe anyone other knows a better solution.
