Hello, I'm looking for a mod that adds the option of setting brightness by sliding across the status bar. To clarify, this is not the same as a brightness slider in the notification panel. You literally slide on the status bar with out having to pull anything down first. It's a crucial feature for me since I go in and out of the Sun a lot during the day. Thanks!
Viper ROM has it as an option so I know it is compatible with Sense roms. I'm running CleanRom now.
Tried GravityBox xposed module and it has the option but when I enable it, it doesn't actually go into effect...
Are you running the Kitkat version of it? Also you shouldn't even need to do this, the auto screen brightness adjustment on this phone is quite good and should adjust it properly for you even quicker than the status bar slider mod you're looking for can.

Yes, I was using KitKat version. The JB version won't even install on a KK phone...
I'd use Auto Brightness if I could set the lower limit to go all the way down to 0% but I can't find settings to customize that. Do you know an Xposed module that can?
In case you were wondering how to set the maximum automatic brightness level
A Google Search:
From the Home screen, tap > Settings > Display & gestures or Display, gestures & buttons. With the Automatic brightness option selected, drag the slider to set the maximum brightness level. This sets a limit on how bright the screen will be when Automatic brightness is selected.
Great answers.
How can one add this feature?
I wanted a simple auto brightness app that scaled a wide range from full bright to very dim without having to manage very specific settings to get it to work properly. I created Lumen to do just that. I also wanted to create something that would get as bright as adaptive brightness does on full brightness but still dims to appropriate levels.
Lumen features:
* Custom color filter - includes ability to put filter on timers.
* One touch notification bar controls for brightness boost and color filter. Brightness boost also temporarily adjusts your screen timeout to 5 minutes. Once you turn off the boost or turn the screen off it reverts back to normal. Great for gaming or showing something to your friends.
*Automatically scales from night mode to full bright. Allows calibration slightly to easily accommodate different phones sensors.
Please let me know what you think, especially with the brightness levels that my algorithm puts out. Thanks!

For those who have tested it out, thank you!
Would there be any value in adding options to apply the color filter based on sunrise and sunset?
So i would like to use screen Auto brightness but it sets the screen too dark or some times keeps hunting for a level ...
Any place to adjust the sensitivity of the auto brightness itself?
Right now i just turn the auto brightness off and set the screen brightness level manually

Agreed, I do the same as you. I always found that these auto-brightness functions don't work worth a squat. I don't know who is in charge of designing the sensitivity settings for it but they really don't work that well. So I always leave it on manual brightness setting and set it to my liking.
I have tried a bunch of brightness widgets on Pie. None of them accurately report the brightness levels.
If I press 10% on the widget the Quick Setting slider shows 50%. I believe this is due to the new slider being logarithmic.
Has anyone found an accurate Brightness widget that works with Pie?
Is it me or there's no option for setting a timer for display timeout.
Is remains always on if there's a notification or if I don't close the display.
Check sleep option in Lockscreen settings.
