Hi,
According the the literature the light sensor adjusts the backlight according the the ambient light available.
Is it just me but this doesn't seem to be working and yes 'Auto adjust backlight' is checked.
Regards.
I can actively see this working all the time, if you happen to hold your hand over a bit of the screen you'll notice it slightly fade. I'ts not a major difference but it's def there.

On my TD2 it is working, but the change in backlight are not so obvious, you have to pay attention to see it: the change is not instantaneous, it is gradual (over a 0.5s time maybe), and it does not change much (not as much as the powersaving no-activity backlight level, which is much lower).
The best way I have found to check if it work is to be in a moderately lit room, and cover/nucover the light sensor with your finger. You should be able to notice the small change in backlight level as you cover/uncover the sensor....
BTW, anyone knows if it is possible to tune the backlight level/ ambiant light function? I would like to keep the auto-adjust, but lower the backlight level when it is completely dark to the minimal setting (or even lower), similar to the powersaving level I was talking about above.
This very low level is not nice for watching movies or pictures (it skew the color rendering because white is not white anymore, it is yellowish grey), but I find it ideal for ebook reading in the dark (it saes the battery, it is not tiring for the eye, and it is not bothering for the sleeping beauty sharing my bed when I read late ;-) )

When I move around (indoor/outdoor), the screen brightness is very consistant (and colors are brilliant too), I persume the light sensor worked
but TD2 did not respond to my random playing of the sensor.. the finger trick did not work for me, but i don't care

Maybe a stupid question...but maybe you mistake the LED for the light sensor.
The indicator led is on the left of the speaker grid, the light sensor on the right...if you have ticked automatic in the backlight intensity (parameter/more/alimentatation section, backlight subsection), you should definitely see a change if you are under bright light and cover/uncover the light sensor just right of the speaker grid.
BTW, thanks fort the g-light application, it is working nicely!
Could even save battery, although maybe this is mitigated by having one more background process running for polling the light sensor data...
Hey guys is there any way to dim only the main keypad lights on the phone. It feels weird when you have your screen at a dim level and the keypad lights are bright.
Hi all!
I know this isnt that big a deal, but the capacitive backlights look weak and dim.
Screen brightness setting doesnt increase these lights at all.
Im use to the really bright "white" lights from my older Galaxy I
Is there a way to adjust these to be brighter? Thanks!!
anyone have the same problem?
Mine are not super bright, but they are not too dim either. I would prefer to have them darker anyway due to how bright the ones on my Galaxy S 4g were at night.
Mine are the same way.. Very dim compared to my Skyrocket I had. My home button is actually a little dimmer than the other 3. It bothers me a little bit. Not sure if I should take it back for this. Other than that its flawless..Just got it today.. from AT&T corporate store in Daytona. But I think it was the only White one in stock..

Hello greetings first of all excuse my English I have a problem I just changed the screen to my mobile but now my mobile lowers or raises the brightness for no reason despite the fact that the automatic brightness is disabled and the truth is that it is very annoying
Does someone have any idea of what it can be?
