Auto Brightness issue on Custom Rom - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi im having an issue with auto brightness. I was on stock ics and recently started getting into roms however im having an issue with the auto brighness that i was not experiencing on stock.
Seems the brightness level keeps changing on its own way to often for no reason. Its really annoying and ive had this issue with both cm9 and apex.
Any fix?

In some Roms you can change the sensability of your lightsensor in the settings. Maybe it s a bit too sensitive

Failure screen brightness at different roms

Hello.
I have one year the nexus S, and during that time I spent three or four times the following.
I turn off the phone and when you turn it lose screen brightness by 50%. And I have to leave at 100% brightness and do not know how to recover the brightness.
It has happened in different roms.
How could restore the default value without being forced to change rom every time I pass?
Which ROMs are they? Which kernel?
It has happened with these roms.
FASTEST ICS 4.04 03/03/12 Pixel Rom 1.60
Codename android (varias versiones)
CyberGR-MOD|NS.NGN ICS v.9 HYBRID+Matr1x 17.5
I have proven different kernels, which come in the roms and Matrix.

I stoped using auto brightnes. Too annoying. . Stock user
Sent from my Nexus S
Once I had to re install the original rom ice cream to see if the brightness again. I got back the shine, but it happens again with other roms. Sometimes installing rom cuaquier recovers brightness.
The funny thing is, sometimes when I install the new rom, the first time does not recover the brightness, and i install the rom and it works.
Brightness What strikes me in both manual and automatic mode.
I try restarting many times to see if I recover the brightness and does not work. Yesterday remove the battery, and recovered the brightness.
It is very rare ...

[Q] Screen dimming lag

There an issue I've been noticing recently. When the screen returns to normal brightness from being dim, there is extreme lag. this also happens when it goes from full brightness to dim. Has anyone else noticed this issue and is there a solution? I was hoping that this wasn't an issue with my phone specifically.

Screen automatic dimming

Hi guys, using my Nexus 5 I noticed the brightness was very inconsistent, even with auto brightness turned off the screen seems to dim occasionally and then go back to full brightness during use.
Have you noticed it too, and is there any way to stop it from happening? I would really like to be able to enjoy the beautiful screen at full brightness without it going dim randomly, thanks.

Yes I noticed it too, but don't know if it is a software bug or a feature to prevent from overheating (like Samsung devices do) or a hardware problem. It is quite annoying!

Proximity and light sensor stops working

Hi all, after updating to Android L (5.0 and 5.0.1) I've noticed that the ambient and proximity sensor will stop working after a certain amount of time. The time appears to be random at the moment. It started off with the adaptive brightness not working correctly, it would always be near max brightness in the dark and minimum in bright light, and at some points it would just stop changing altogether. So I decided to get lux autobrightness, it works better than adaptive brightness in L, but it would also stop adjusting itself after awhile.
Then I noticed that sometimes during a phone call, the phone's screen will not turn off so at the moment I decided to check the sensor's value with an app when the auto brightness/proximity wasn't working anymore. Turns out that the sensors are all registering 0 values or not changing it's readings despite being in different light conditions.
A reboot fixes this but, it's really annoying having to reboot the phone once a day.
Anyone else experiencing this?
EDIT: nvm, found out that other people are experiencing this as well. Haven't been on xda for awhile and forgot how to use the search button
