If i set my screen to auto brightness it just flicks from lighter to darker every second if i sit near a window. Really annoying that the screen adjusts ALL the time.
Is there a way to fix this? Without rooting.

I have strange behavior of screen before turn off.
I set screen turn off after 1min. So after 1 min screen dim, and suddenly undim an after that turn off. Its quite annoying for me cause i remember that screen should dim and after that just turn off, but on my phone just before turn off its undim. Anybody know how can i change it even in framework?
I have the same behavior...

Are you on a modified rom or on stock?
Is there a calibration for light sensor? I use auto brightness most of the time and recently my sensor doesnt work well. It stay at the lowest most of the time unless the outside is VERY bright and when I went back to a dark room, it doesnt dim unless I lock and unlock again.

Does anyone else have the problem where the screen dims after inactivity (doesn't turn off) and when you start using it, it doesn't turn to normal brightness no matter what? Only way to get back to normal brightness is to turn on and off screen.
Just saw it in action and it might have to do with the greenify auto hibernation feature (non rooted). Does anyone use this?

This has always been confusing and I am looking for clarification on the Lock Screen/ Screen dimming, etc.
So I went into the display settings and set it not to turn off for 1 minute. Then I checked the power saving settings just to be sure the screen would not go dim or lock after 5 seconds. That did not work. Then I checked the security settings to see if something was over ridding every other time out setting and I am lost. Either these settings have never really worked since the original note and android/ google is lazy or I am not doing something right.
Dose anyone have a step by step walk through of all the settings that would affect when the screen dimms and when it locks? (Sometimes I am running music through blue tooth and I don't want to the screen to dim for specific applications also. There has to be a setting somewhere because Google Maps does not allow the screen to dim or lock when in nav mode.

I really wish someone would have answered your question. Mainly since I have the same freaking problem.
When the phone app is running, I am constantly getting dimmed, seconds only to do something.
Tonight I was using an app that monitors BBQ temperatures. Always dims to fast. Set the screen timeout for 10 minutes. Still dimmed after 30 seconds or so.
How does this work? I'm not sure the screen timeout setting does anything.
The screen diming feature is part of the auto brightness function and works by using the ambiant light sensor to adjust the brightness of the display. According to the amount of light detected in front of the display.
Screen locking happens when you haven't used your device for a specific amount of time.

It dims before it locks. That's what I was referring to. I think the OP was as well.
I set the display for 10 minute timeout. It dims and locks the screen in less than a minute. I can't figure out how to stop it.
Is that a clearer question?
Well my screen dims for some seconds before going out, but, always as per the time I set , for instance, if I set to go out after 5 mins of inactivity, it dims after 4 mins 55 seconds, then goes out, I dont use autobrightness, and I use entertainment mode
It was secure lock time setting.
It was disregarding the screen timeout.
