My Samsung led flip case works but the enclosed instructions say there are extra setting under settings.. Advanced features... Accessories...
I don't have accessories under advanced settings!
Found it. Search led in settings and it pops up in the list.
Hey there! Do your LED view cover's LEDs adjust brightness according to ambient light?
Bought a LED view cover and mine don't. Want to know whether my case is defective. Thanks!
What exactly do you mean by 'ambient light'?
Did you expect the LED-cover to adjust to your phone's brightness settings? Mine doesn't either, so I don't think that's a feature.

Damn, that's sad. The LED view cover I had for my Note 4 used to increase/decrease brightness depending upon indoor/outdoor lighting conditions.
Returned Note 9's LED view cover as the LEDs were very dim outdoors, and totally invisible in sunlight.
You should look into the Clearview case then, it may be different with that one?

Dear all,
I have an idea to share with all my fellow Kaiser user. Since we have a camera, why don't we make use of it to check the ambience light and auto adjust the backlight according to the level of brightness sensed by the camera. Also, using the front camera, it should not be hard to check the orientation of the ppc, it would be nice if PIE or and browser adjust itself like the iphone did.
Just my 0.02. Hope this idea can help.

your idea is good, but has some "design flaws":
1. the camera adjusts the overall brightness automatically, so if this can't be disabled, it would be useless.
2. if you would point the camera at a white wall or a black something you would get different overall luminance, even if the ambient light is the same. again, useless.

Is there another parameter which is detectable which could allow for such a problem?
Dunno how to program at all, just thinking...
...what a bunch of tightarses these companies are not using a transflective screen.

the camera autoadjusts brightness for the picture you are taking, not for what it actually receives...
This application does exist for the PalmOS (caled BrightCam) and works beautifully. I truly miss this app on my Kaiser now. I wil inquire with the developer if he has plans on anyting for WM.
Hey all you lucky ONE owners
I'm planning on upgrading to the one myself soon. Just want to know if the little LED can be disabled for specific or preferably all events.

On the sgs3 I have, the LED is way too bright for night reading (esp when charging). But it can at least be disabled.
That said, LED control via AOSP was impossible due to Samsung's unreleased sources/drivers. Would this be the case with the One?

Hi! If you disable the led then there would be 0% visibility on the screen. The screen isn't amoled.

Thanks Riyal, though I was meaning the alert LED rather than the LCD backlight. That little LED on the upper left, under the That little LED on the upper left, under the speaker gri grill

Ohhh ok you mentioned about reading & amoled so I thought it was led backlight
Anyway yes it's possible. There's a setting for notification leds where you could disable them.
Hi everyone, as you should know the Asus Zenwatch 3 has an AMOLED display. From my understanding this should mean when displaying the colour black, the pixels should be turned off completely (like on my S7 Edge).
I was looking at my watch in a pitch black room with an ambient watch face displaying a black background and it appeared slightly reddish. Compared with my LG G Watch R sporting the exact same watch face it was clear the LG had the black pixels turned off but not on my Zenwatch 3.
I've attached a couple of pictures taken with my phone of the Zenwatch 3 in a pitch black room, one with normal shutter speed and the other with a 2 second shutter speed. Evidently the 2 second shutter speed shows that the display is in fact not turning off the pixels. The pics were taken when the watch was charging and in ambient mode with a watch face set to true black only.
Can anyone else confirm that this is the case and maybe a reason why? I'm worried that battery life may be affected by this with always on display enabled.
Lastly on a side note, are the black lines that aren't illuminated something to worry about?
Mine is the same, including a similar set of dark lines. I've seen others on Reddit report identical concerns.

Noticed this too, thought I was crazy lol...kinda waste of an AMOLED screen.
Hmmm ok at least I'm not the only one. Hopefully Asus is able to change it in a future update.
Yeah it is weird, black watch faces aren't truly black. I think they did it so watch faces can blend into the color scheme of the watch, if you notice the color overlay on the app launcher
That's because of auto Brightness. Turn it off. This impacts battery life. I observed this on very first day after the purchase. Using manual Brightness since then.

I just tried disabling Auto Brightness but the red tinge of the black background still exists.

It doesn't happen with me. If I turn off auto Brightness the blacks go complete black. Do you have live display turned on your phones? If so try disabling it. May be this setting depends on your phone. All I can confirm is if I turned auto Brightness off amoled works perfectly.

Not sure what you mean by live display but I just have a stock S7 Edge. I prefer keeping the auto brightness on for my watch so I guess I'll have to live with it.

Live display is when some ROMs allow the screen to have a tint at night time so the blue light from the screen won't affect your eyes at night
Me too have similar display and black line like that.
Glad I'm not the only one with this condition.
I also have those black lines, was about to get a replacement but since I'm not the only one and it doesn't affect overall performance or aesthetics its fine.
Yeah I have also black lines and screen is not completely dark with totally black watch faces
Turning off the auto brightness is not a solution. Its a pain if you had to adjust the brightness all the time
So, at night my brightness is set to the lowest (in a dark room). The problem I have is when I turn the phone on from being locked and screen off...it goes to Iris scanning screen which is about 20% brighter...it stays at that brightness even after the unlock. The phone then takes about 10 seconds to adjust to the darkness.
Is my sensor messed up? Is there a setting I'm missing somewhere?
I was wondering the same thing also. When I select auto brightness on or off nothing happens. Stays at same brightness Leavell. I come from note5 and when you selected auto brightness on or off you could tell the difference. On brightness would dim and react to the lighting, off it would be bright. I hope this isn't a hardware issue.

Sounds like the old issue where after taking a pic the homescreen would remain bright.
Weird solution (for me)
I had the same problem (auto-brightness) and I did factory reset and even sent back to Samsung (they did another reset). But end of the day I figured out it was a VERY WEIRD situation for me - believe it or not, I am using Spigen Liquid Armor case and that is the culprit.
I remove the case and it works perfectly. I put it back on, it stops working. I tried on my friend's Note 8, exactly the same issue. It is just a rubber case - I cannot explain at all.
IF you happen to use a Spigen case - give that a try.
I was going to get a slim armor one, I think an urban armor plasma would be better then!
So it must be interfering with one of the light sensors?
Hey guys, hope you are doing great.
I have noticed one peculiar thing, when i sit in pitch dark places with brightness at the end, i face this white issue over my display screen shot attached, it's Google chrome app which showing me these results,(there are many more also)for this to be noticed you must sit in a dark room.
I know it's typical led panel issue and i would like to know if i am the only one?
Do you seriously think we are able to see your display in a screenshot?

If you are in a pitch dark room and see no anamoly then your's display is good. If not you will see a whitish tint over the top area
And btw you can check on your device itself, by just opening chrome(if it's black) and in dark room with brightness as low as possible.

Enable feature in display settings under anti flicker mode to on. and check again your screen in low light conditions.
Yup, that worked, it increase overall contrast for low brightness, is this condition(tint) is normal for amoled panel, or i am just unlucky.
