I notice this when I'm outside and the sun is hitting the display. Doesn't happen all the time though.

Maybe you set the screen mode to Adapt Display ?

Who know's. Maybe it's the lighting when you are walking between rooms or going from indoor to outdoors that has you thinking otherwise.
Personally, I use Brightness Level (CurveFish) from the Market. It's one of my favorite widgets simply because I can toggle on the fly. I have never noticed my screen brightness increasing when using it.

Did you turn up browser brightness?

Settings > display > auto adjust screen tone.
See if that helps any.

Came here to say exactly this. That option attempts to conserve battery power by dimming the screen whenever it detects that the screen is displaying mostly bright colors. An example of seeing this in action would be to open up Chrome and then pull up and down on your notification bar. You will see that the screen will brighten whenever the darker colors of the notification pane take over. It's not a bad feature at all.
In the open I've mentioned I have both that and the auto dim set off

Brightness in the dark

I have turned off auto adjust from the main notification menu and I have my phone set to standard on the display settings and my phone still dims when their is a lot of white on the screen, when I load google chrome and in games (emulators). Has anybody had the same issues? I've seen also, but I'm not sure, that the processor still run at 1,458 Ghz, not at 1,89.

There's still a setting you need to turn off in the display options, it's just above the high sensitivity checkbox that let's you use the phone with gloves (I don't remember how it's named in English but it basically means auto tone).

It's the "auto-brigthness" and it's uncheck. Perhaps it's a problem of my rom. I'm on stock rom, just root. Or the solution may be to change Kernel. Those who have custom rom/Kernel, have you this "problem"?

Is under display settings , something with "tone"

I don't think it's a problem with options. Many users have this problem. I've try many and many options but still have bad results. But you, have you also this problem or not? If yes, changing Kernel must be the solution or not?

I think this happens if you've enabled Adapt Display in display settings. Try switching it off.
Has anyone got a solution to this, I have had this phone 2 days and the screen jumps up and down in brightness and I am sure I have turned off all the auto settings.
One minute the whites are nice and bright next they turn grey or cream then back to bright white.

Yes the G2 has a very dim brightness on 1% and also with inverted colors in accesibility click the name not the on or off button to make it dimmer grab it about the bottom middle of that screenshot and drag it down untill you match the blue color on the status bar all the way on the bottom... it keeps your colors the same but your blacks are darker makes for an even dimmer screen... have taken it to a movie theater and get no complaints its as if ts not even on
One of the brightest displays I've used no joke first time I turned the brightness up to 100 my eyes started watering no joke.

I seldom feel the need to run the brightness above 85% except outside on a sunny day. If you are an auto-brightness user, Lux is practically mandatory. LG's auto-dimming logic is horrible. It's got a, maybe, ±20% range.

I'm not sure exactly what you mean. If you have auto brightness unchecked your screen will won't automatically change based on your surrounding illumination. If you do check it-it should brighten when in direct light and dim in the dark. So are you're saying it isn't changing brightness based on surrounding light correctly (when checked) or you're expecting it to change brightness not checked?

If you have the screen mode to adaptive display , that might be the cause of it. Go to settings/display/screen mode.
