Hello all,
does the XZ1c has a nightmode and reduze blue tone an brightness in the evenning automaticly?
Greetings Christian
Not that i can see.
Oh, thanks. Thats bad. I hoped that it has it and maybe my Xc will get it. I also would buy the new phone if it has it.
And a second question, whats about automatic display brightness? Does it works good and in a good way, day and night? My Xc is very different, when i put brightness to automode and adjust in the evenning, its at daytime to dark. When i set it at daytime well (but not very bright) its in the evening/night horrible.
Use the "Twilight" app. Works fine

Auto brightness seems to work ok but it gets a bit juddery sometimes when it adjusts.
I've tried twilight too, seems to work ok. Native support would be a nice touch. Brightness on the lowest setting is still retina burning in a dark room.
I use Twilight as well.
Its also got a "go even darker" mode.

Hi, I have noticed the pink tint to the screen when using adaptive brightness below 30-40% and was wondering if it effects all devices.
I have read a lot of people talking about it and that it happens because the screen goes so dark and some people are saying that it is supposed to happen. Is this true and if not is it effecting all devices?
I am on my 3rd device now the first one i took back after a few hours as the screen was tinted really yellow and uneven and my second one had image retention pretty bad and would happen after 5 seconds of the nav bar being displayed and i dont know if it effected them as i didnt try adaptive brightness as i didn't ha e them for long enough.
The one thing i find really weird though is that i have been using the lux app to test if it was to do with the phone going so dim and while there is a slight pink tint when putting the brightness down on the lux app it is no where near as bad as when adaptive brightness is being used and the lux app goes a lot darker.
Thanks.
I've seen all does it specially at night. I consider this is normal
Its because you're brightness is below 0. If you use adaptive brightness at night its lower than 0 without adaptive brightness. You will see the same thing if you use the lux brightness app.
Edit: I noticed you used the lux app, you're correct its not as bad with it, but it's still there. I could be a software implementation or a bug for all we know.
So it is actually on all devices and not a select few?
I got 7 days to return it for another one but if it is on all devices and there is nothing that can fix it i dont think there is no point in risking it for another nexus 6 that could have a worse screen like uneven colours.

This is more of a feature than a defect, frankly...
Not that it is pink, but that it can be dropped down as low as it can.
Basically, there is a minimum brightness threshold. The lower the brightness, the less power it consumes. If you set the brightness below a certain point, the colors (because of the nature of the amoled) will start to mess up a bit. Most vendors will set the minimum brightness high enough to not have this happen. Google sets it a bit lower to save a bit more power, without making the colors go *entirely* crazy by setting it WAY too low.
Its made like that to conserve power. All nexus 6 are like that
I thought it was a defect too until I started researching and like someone suggested turned off adaptive brightness which made the tint go away completely even at lowest brightness setting.

Adaptive brightness is actually a really nice feature.
If the pink bugs you too much, you can (if you know your way around a compiler, that is...) bump up the minimum a little.
What if adaptive brightness is off, and the brightness is set to at least 70%, and the pink tint crap still happens? kernel issue? nougat issue? Because it's very annoying, randomly happens to me. usually, going into twrp and clearing cache fixes it. sometimes it doesn't though.
Help.
EDIT
Never mind. I figured it out. it was night mode that was causing the pink tint via purenexus settings.
And yes I did make the title CAPS, because I am a bit cross they thought this would be a good idea.
Personally I don't think our screens need this feature....
It seems the nexus 6 has this 'automatic contrast brightness' feature built in.
Really, i cant think why.
I am really enjoying the phone, but for me the brightness just is not up to scratch (unfortunately) but hey hoo.
Anyway, i noticed this happening to mine. Start chrome for example, for a split second the screen is bright then it dims down.
I would say this is software setting, but it seems there is no access to it, can it be fixed by kernel setting or some other rom mod?

Do you have Adaptive brightness turned on in the Display settings?
are you noticing this at full brightness?

Hi, yes it is off as is ambient display...
As stated in the OP, this is built in on the Nexus 6 as it is with the LG2 also i think.
It would be great if we where able to disable it, but from what I have read about Content-based Dynamic Contrast it might be kernel related or something within the rom...
Does anyone have any info on this CDC feature?
Cheers

There is no such thing. Do you have any reliable reference that it's a feature of the N6? I can only find one article from "PC Pro UK" whatever that website is.
What does happen like it happens with most if not all OLED (and Plasma btw) is that the screen has a max overall brightness it can achieve. If you have a small white square it will be able to get brighter than if you had the whole screen white.
In practice I don't notice it though, with the phone turned to max brightness and then opening a mostly white empty Chrome page.
Are you running stock? I don't have this type of issue unless I have adaptive brightness on.
Hello dear xda-community,
I just returned from my vacation to Mexico. Whilst being there and taking pictures I encountered a very strange dilemma with the display and the brightness-automatic of the P10: Even if I deactivated the automatic screen-brightness, the system shaded when shooting pictures in the bright sunlight. Which resulted in a barely seeable screen, whereby the S7 of my girlfriend provided a sharp and bright screen.
I really wonder what caused this strange behaviour, and if anyone of you experienced a similar behaviour? I really don't get it why a feature still works when it's deactivated -__-
Thanks, cheerz
J
did no one experience this issue?
I experienced this, too.
But mostly I got it working with manual focus.
The most annoying thing is that the colors are a bit darken with bright sunlight, even if the sun isn't in the picture. The colors seems to be faded, the saturation is very low. See the attachment, the smaller prop plane is blue in reality but on this photo it looks like black, like the background buildings, too.
Hello Janno,
my issue is not with the postproduction, but with the lightsensor which is shading the whole display (even if this option has been disabled)
Thanks for your reply though, I chose a bad headline
Um getting this issue too... After about 10mins in the bright sun light the phone dims...even when i turn off automatic brightness and increase the brightness level it wont work...i think its a flaw on oreo update...when using nougat this never encountered

I guess it has something todo with the device temperature - Have the same behavior while using navigation :x
hm... not sure if it's really temperature-driven, since in the lockscreen no dimming took place and the display was shining in brightest and good readable colors.

Yeah thats true...
Its a bug in the display, you can turn it off in developer options but it still occurs. I think B365 has a fix for it
is B365 a user here?
Thanks for the help

B365 is an Oreo update.
I am pretty sure it is temperature issue, had it on oreo 360 and 365 after update. It happens while I am driving with navigation (waze)and charging and direct sunlight on the device. Then I take the p10 and place it in front of the air conditioner opening for 30 seconds and everything is ok.

So for me, it has something todo with the device temperature. I bought a new phone holder, which is placed in front of the Ventilation and my display didnt changed the brigthness anymore ?
Same problem
In application's it get dark even you have automatic switched off. This issue is a really annoying and looks like connected with temperature.
My P10 was/is on B365 as this issue happened. Just got it back today from repairs, of course they found nothing^^
So it seems really to be a software-issue. Any way to fix this?
Well I have a question.
Is it possible that the display is quite dimm even under direct sunlight and auto mode?
My gfs iPhone 12 pro max got a way brighter screen.
I'm really honest the longer I'm using this device the more unimpressed I am.
It's already dimmer than every flagship right now and it's even dimming more while gaming...
I really don't know what to think about this mobile anymore. So much which leaks way behind my expectations...
Anyone who got similar thoughts maybe?
Best regards
Turn auto brightness of and enable the following:
Settings -> Display -> Brightness Level -> Sunlight Mode on
Does it work?
Hello, thx for your reply. Already did this but seems like it's not working it's still dim. I also have lots of dust in the camera, I think I need to replace it with another one...
Hello, 3 days ago I bought oppo x3 pro. Phone is awesome, but auto brightness works very bad... It keep decreasing screen brightness to very low level.
I never seen something like that, Samsung S20 works much better, well, even realme x50 works normal. To use phone I had to disable auto brightness. Is there anything like adaptive screen brightness, I read somewhere that samsung by the time learn my preferences, and keep good brightness. Tired this with oppo for 3 days, but seems it doesn't have that option.

If it is the same mechanism as in OnePlus (not sure about it) - then the phone will "learn" after you manually set the brightness to proper level. Give it 2 weeks.
Btw. Rydzyk in avatar, hope youre not the real one
Real Tadeusz here
I was teaching for 3 days, but without success. Will try for a week now
thanks
Try clearing system cache and data in the relevant apks.
Test the light level sensor to see if it falls within an acceptable range.
I use manual brightness control almost always; doing so saves battery, retinas and sanity.
It also reminds you when it's too bright and your frying your display.
Same here. Helped me out with Lux Brightness and set the minimum brightness to 30. Works fine for me.
To me in Realme 8 it seems to have learn a minimum value for auto brightness instantly, I just set a minimum a little above of the default level (It was very low), and the phone remember that level onwards
well, mine surely isn't 'learning', it keeps defaulting to the lowest value, which is waaay to low.
Are there any alternatives to Lux Brightness that you know off?

What happens to me is that the default auto brightness deactivates itself when it wants, and reactivates also when it wants, very annoying. So I deactivated manually the auto brightness and tried Velis Auto Brightness, this app is a little complicated but works quite well, just you have first to understand the app itself and then tweak a little to your convenience. It has a little bug in Android 11, the notification of lux and % of brightness screen disappears after some time but doesn't affect the app itself.
