Hello everyone, I've noticed recently that whenever my phone is under direct sunlight, the screen doesn't get as bright as before, in fact it's barely visible with auto and maximum brightnes. I also noticed that the "Optimized for outdoors visibility" (sort of) is no longer mentioned under the brightness slider.
I haven't modified my phone nor flashed any custom kernel, it's running the latest officially available XEF firmware.
I've done tests under the *#0*# menu and the sensor seems to be working just fine reacting to changes, also was using Samsung good lock and though it was the culprit so I removed it but the issue remains. So I really have no idea what might be the problem here, any advice guys :/ ? Thanks!!

HI everyone, i can't find solution thru the search...
i have absolutely no control of my brightness, stuck on the brightest setting. setting it to auto does nothing, moving the slider does nothing. does anybody know about this issue?
The same issue here happened a few months ago.
Tried recover ROM from backup. Tried flash stock. Nothing.
Always full brightness and as a result nexus is quite hot while works.
Anybody have any clue about what's happened here?
Thanks in advance.
I can't believe, but yesterday my nexus foll down from the sofa, aaaaand ... can you imagine, brightness now works like before =))
Looks like some cable/connectors issue somewhere inside.
Today my nexus again has follen down and brightness again breaks. So, i've quickly opened it and realized that this connector was a bit not in place. Fixed now.
I'm using 4.4.2 leaked de-odexed rom, everything seems fine so far, other than the few minor things,
but I can't help but notice that my auto brightness is not working at all.
it is not adjusting the brightness of the screen, yet when I check the auto off , and move the slides it works as nothing wrong. so, I can clearly say that this isn't the hardware problem.
is this just me?
Mine is a little sketchy, but it works. Mainly when I unlock. It takes a few seconds to adjust. Stock root 442.

Ok, So I've had my Acer A500 for quite some time now. Couple years in fact. Anyway a few months after getting it I noticed that I couldn't change the display brightness whatsoever. Also the autobrightness did nothing even tho I had tested the sensor and it came out fine. Now I don't know if this problem existed before I rooted and installed a custom rom, however no matter the rom the brightness still will not adjust. I have even taken the tablet apart and made sure the cable to the screen was seated well. I'm wondering if anyone might know if this is a hardware issue what may be causing it? or if it may be a driver/software problem.
I've just noticed that the brightness slider moves from end to end with no change in screen brightness.
Anyone got a fix?
Android 5.0.2
Yes, I have the same problem. Mine is weird though. Mine will sometimes get bright and match the setting, but a majority of the time it goes to the most dim level on the screen regardless of where the brightness level is set. I'm hoping that it is something that I can fix, but I don't know if people will say that it's a hardware issue. My Tab is rooted again after I reinstalled the stock firmware again to try and fix the problem. Hopefully someone can offer an insight to this problem. I'm wondering if taking it apart and heating up the processor with a heat gun would cause it to work. That worked as a temporary fix on an Apple computer.
I have the same problem after I rooted the tablet. The only solution I found is install the app Screen Filter.
Are you on a custom ROM?
Can you reproduce the issue with a stock ROM?
If not,its probably the custom ROM have bugs.
Or maybe sth else
Hey all.
So I got my MXP about a month ago, as my faithful Nexus 6 has long been deteriorating (#RIPshamu), and I wanted to try something a little different. I love the device and have almost gotten it tweaked and set up just the way I like it. However, I'm currently facing an issue that I can't seem to fix.
When I have a dark gray image on screen, such as the dimming when you pull down the notification bar over a white screen, the left side of my screen flickers rapidly from dark to normal, as if changing brightness. It is most noticeable on higher brightness settings, but plenty present enough on lower ones anyhow. I have made sure that no odd display tweaks in GravityBox are interfering with system presets, and I can't figure out what might be causing this.
I'm hoping it is software-related; I bought the device off-contract and without warranty, as I do with all my handsets, but if the problem is with hardware I should be able to fix it on my own so long as I know what part is causing the issue.
I'm running TruPureXMM with FrankenClark kernel. (systemless SU, magisk/systemless-xposed if any of that matters to you). Can provide logs upon request, but things seem normal to me at first glance.
Anyone else experienced this or have a fix?
I too am running TruPure and Frankenclark. I've been having a similar issue with the display, except it's the bottom half of the screen that is dimmed. I've also noticed that the 'dimming' takes on vertical lines of color depending on what the screen is displaying. The 'dimming' has consistently been transparent for me.
I originally thought that it may have started because I changed some settings using kernel adiutor, however changing those settings back did not fix the issue. I've yet to try returning to stock. I've also noticed the same display issue on boot up and in TWRP, which suggests a hardware problem, not a software one.
Some research online suggests that there is a known display bug with the Moto pure, and that the temporary fix is to reboot, but that doesn't solve the problem for me.
I think I'll try reverting to stock first, and if that is unsuccessful, then I'll try to reseat the display connector.
