that Lux Auto Brightness app didn't work on normal Ace Plus which running on gingerbread roms,
because this app is not compatible with GB it requires atleast ICS.
But also CM users may enjoy this auto-brightness feature in their ace plus... nice one

Well buddy it needs a camera to take light input, so it will not run without camera or light sensor. I don't know if there is any android device without camera in market. you can use back camera for that, but some times results may annoy you, when you accidentally put your finger in front of camera.

Hay pal first read the tutorial fully, I am using tasker to initiate refresh process on display on. If you use lux individually then it will slow down your phone and drain the battery. In my tutorial actually lux is not running in background (if it is running you can kill it). Tasker plug in triggers it to refresh the brightness. Coz i have used it for hole day and currently using, I have not face any issues with device performance. If anyone body faced any issue can post here i'll try to solve it.
So it will never drain battery just try it.

Lux works fine without Tasker too. I didn't feel bothered to uninstall Tasker at last. Tasker itself consume a smart amount of RAM. Now I am using lux with some additional luma values in addition to given here. I am using total 11 numbers of values and set adjust "On Woke". It's flawlessly working without the help of tasker.
Thanks man. The flux app saved me!!!!!
(Ps.: I aslo think that tasker is not needed because flux is enough)
works like charm
nice my nexus 4 light sensor and proximity sensors are dead..this resolved light sensor...any alternate for proximity sensor???while receiving or making calls
Another app that work to. Just install. No need any setting.
It is "Auto brightness by PP".
It is free.

Bro. its working perfect... I tested it.. god bless u
using this will not save your battery
it will even drain more battery as it uses front camera as light sensor
so your front camera will be always on to check the light condition
i guess front camera will use more battery

Thanks buddy.. now going to check.. thanks for your hard work..
Are you tired of not being able to read the screen very well when outside under the hot sun? Then you came to the right thread.
Touchwiz Auto Brightness does not need this mod.
However, no brightness functionality in any AOSP ROM is capable of getting as bright as Touchwiz Auto Brightness. Nor can the manual brightness slider of AOSP or Touchwiz.
As I've presented it here, this "app" will enable an extra ~5-10% brightness from your Note 3 4.4.2 and 4.4.4 OLED display in both rooted TouchWiz and AOSP ROM's. If I had to guess, max brightness in manual mode is something like 350'ish nits. And when you enable this mod, it jumps up to something like 600'ish nits?
***While this mod is turned on, you will lose the ability to adjust brightness via the manual-brightness slider. This mod will peg it to the limit of extra brightness until the mod is turned off.
You can leave this extra-brightness mod turned on at all times, but I don't recommend leaving the screen on for more than a minute or two.
DO NOT LEAVE THE SCREEN TURNED ON FOR MORE THAN A MINUTE OR TWO WHEN THE EXTRA-BRIGHTNESS MOD IS ENABLED. IT'LL EVENTUALLY FRY/BURN-IN YOUR OLED DISPLAY IF OVERUSED! I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY OTHER SIDE-EFFECTS THIS MOD MIGHT CAUSE.
To use the mod, please install the attached apk's. Just open in Root Explorer and install.
When you click the app, it will automatically adjust your brightness.
Click the "Sunlight" app and it'll put your OLED screen into stereoids brightness mode. It basically overdrives all the colors so you can see the screen a little better under direct sunlight conditions.
Click the "Automatic" app and it'll put your OLED screen back into regular auto-brightness mode.
Click the "Manual" app and it'll put your phone back into regular manual-brightness mode.
I think I'm going to learn how to get AutoVoice going with Tasker so I can set up a voice activated command that will enable/disable this brightness mod. Because I have a hard time reading my screen (dark themes) under direct Texas sunlight!!!
If you don't want to install an app, then just make a script. This command will enable the extra-brightness:
Code:
echo 6 > /sys/class/backlight/panel/auto_brightness
If a dev out there can figure out how to enable this mod and not lose adjustability of manual-brightness, that would be freakin sweet. :good:
Many thanks go to @hatcyl because it was his thread over in the Note II subforum that got me pointed in the right direction to figuring out how we can do this on our Note 3.
Edit 1/6/2017
I found my old APK's and uploaded them to one zip.
Just unzip to locate the APK's to install:

Great find! But question.....what's the point for a 1-2 minute feature? I have this feature on my OPO and it does it automatically kernel+ROM wise. But on the N3, having to turn it off after 1-2 minute kills the original purpose, does it not?

Well you can leave it turned on all week long if you want. But I wouldn't leave the screen turned on for more than a few minutes at a time. That's why Samsung didn't add this brightness capability to the manual slider. Stuff gets wonky when the screen is overdriven this hard.
AOSP auto-brightness can't get as bright as TouchWiz auto-brightness. Ideally, a dev would add this mod to the AOSP auto-brightness somehow, so AOSP could get as bright as TouchWiz when needed.
For me, I'll have this turned on when I'm walking my dog during the day, or doing random things outdoors. And that'll be just fine, because the screen won't ever be turned on for more than a few seconds at a time.
Very nice mod, just add a feature to turn it off after a minute, great if you add tasker integration.

The APK's were built using Tasker's App Factory.
For Tasker integration, you simply use the "script" option in Tasker.
Let me know if you have any specific Tasker questions. I"m not a pro, more of a beginner. But I'll try to help.
I'd like to figure out a way so Tasker can tap into the light sensor and automatically pop the extra brightness over certain a certain LUX, then turn it off after that LUX number drops.
How did you beat the brightness levels with tasker and do you mean I have to use intents in tasker?

Ahh, no you ignore the brightness level in Tasker. 255 is the highest that's ever going to go and that's OK.
You simply create a new task, name it, then add action, the action will be "script". Then you add the command and check the box to make it run as root.
The command will be:
Code:
echo 6 > /sys/class/backlight/panel/auto_brightness
Then to turn it off, just toggle auto-brightness in the Android Brightness Options.
Or create another Tasker task using the Display action to turn auto-brightness on.
Hope this helps.

Did you run them as Root?
Superuser should prompt you to give Tasker root permissions when you run it. Or it should unless you've already given Tasker root permissions before.
If you're not sure, then open Superuser and see if Tasker is listed as one of hte apps inside it.

If you enable Sunlight brightness, then you *might* need to select auto afterwards, before the manual can be selected. Can't go directly from sunlight to manual. At least not on my first test. Second test ROM doesn't see that behavior.
Here's a how-to video that includes a demonstration. Though it's kind of hard to see the changes, it might help understand what's going on.

If you enable Sunlight brightness, then you *might* need to select auto afterwards, before the manual can be selected. Can't go directly from sunlight to manual. At least not on my first test. Second test ROM doesn't see that behavior.
Here's a how-to video that includes a demonstration. Though it's kind of hard to see the changes, it might help understand what's going on.

Here's what the three apps look like when added to my Quick Toggles. They are the top three apps:

Sorry, I don't have any changelog and don't remember the details of this mod.
It's been too long since I made it.
FYI, the developer @flar2 has created a High Brightness Mode widget that far surpasses my original mod.
It is a newer mod and so I don't know how well it works on the Note 3 or if it works at all.
But it works AWESOME on my Google Pixel XL which has the AMOLED display from Samsung.
Here is a link to the widget/mod:

I don't want to use power button, double tap or simulate that. I just want to disable display for some time and then turn it back on. Is this possible? Thanks.
Edit: this app does it flawlessly with root. https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-screen-backlight-off-xda-exclusive-t3037380
Objectives
1. Apps should be running in foreground thinking I'm using phone.
2. Only display module should be affected.
3. Android itself should think that the display is turned on and should play YouTube videos (though i dont want youtube.. Its just an example plz don't comment YouTube vanced)..
Possible solutions:
1. Rename display driver files (idk location).
2. Make brightness 0 (idk how to do this.. Idk default value too)
Ps: even if there is adb command plz tell me that.. Along with command to turn display on again lol
Double tap to sleep and double tap to wake
??? I don't want my android to sleep. I want to just disable the display not put phone on sleep like double tap, power button etc..
Use the game mode...it has a screen off feature...just manually add the app as a game you want to use this feature on. Even sound works...just screen turns of...helps with YouTube for free background play ?
I'm not on stock MiUi rom bro I'm using syberia os.. Thanks for idea btw..
Break the screen
If you're on custom rom, then find one with smart pixel and disable around 80-90% of the pixels
Thanks but smart pixels is useless for non amoled phones..
Do u want to take picture of someone secretely??
If so then there is already an app for that which disables the screen and then u just tap anywhr on the screen whn the display is off and snap any photo/vid.
Lol no nothing like that.. I just want to disable my display panel to watch hotstar app for long times.. I don't need video only audio... So I wanna disable display panel to save battery.
My god the OP has a lot of issues for an absurd problem
Found solution. https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-screen-backlight-off-xda-exclusive-t3037380
add to game turbo you can turn off display and running game/on background with display turn off..
Hi!
I would like something like this https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ness-fix-torch-light-not-photo-flash.3872858/ for my Xperia 5 II.
Or if there is a setting for it. I have read on some webpages that maybe you could boost it in settings. This site https://smartandroid.fr/en/comment-allumer-la-lampe-torche-de-son-sony-xperia-5-2/ is about "Xperia 5" (not "Xperia 5 II") and say:
Slide the notification bar down
Go to the settings shortcut page on which your » Lamp »
Rather than clicking on the logo to light it, click on the text: » Lamp ", In this way you will access the torch settings of your Sony Xperia 5
You can now move the slider to manage the intensity of your flash. Namely that the device will save the setting and that it will have this intensity during the next ignition
I cant find that setting on my Xperia 5 II.
I have also tried this:
I go to Settings
There, at the top, I search for "Flash"
Now I see the setting "Flashlight", but nothing happens what I try to choose it.
Is there any magic out there to turn up the light?
Hi raffe,
I'm glad you posted this as I was looking to ask this question myself. The flashlight is really dim compared to my old phone so it would be great to turn up the brightness (lumens).
I also have no response when I look at settings and search torch. And no way to find other options for this feature. I even looked on Developer Tools.
Hopefully someone can help....?
Maybe the problem is, there is only one led diode..
Agree the "torch" is incredibly woeful, worst I've seen to be honest.
if you make a photo then you see that the led can be pretty bright even brighter than everyother phone I've had. Problem is that sony sets it low to allow it to go on for couple of hours winthout overheating.
I'm looking into it myself, if I find anything then I'll let you guys know
So it's me again. I have a solution but it requires root

Download this app and select device google pixel 2 it allows you to control the torch brightness
But be careful and don't burn your finger by setting it to 100% max bright like me hah. The 10% is normal brightness 20% is brighter than every other device and 30% is enough for myself

Good find! I only wish there were an easier way to toggle flashlight on/off to a preset intensity. The app doesn't provide a shortcut.

The brightness setting may be hidden. On my Samsung simply long pressing the flashlight icon toggle takes you to the brightness control.
It was purely by accident that I discovered it as that's the only way to access it.
I agree that root shouldn't be required for such a simple thing.
Crap it

It's probably buried in the settings or a 3rd party flashlight app can be used to access the brightness controls.
I would use the former rather than the latter...

If it's buried then it's buried so deep that it doesn't exist.

With Samsung there's no rythm or reason; double tapping or long pressing to access unindicted drop down menus. They are far and few in between so finding one tends to be a shock.
Another reason I seldom upgrade the firmware.
Maybe Sony is more sane but don't count on it.
Play with it...
I had to un-root the phone. When I rooted, the one app that could change the light intensity worked, but three other apps (financial and banking) said they would not start on a rooted phone and I never could get past that. Back to square 1 ;-(
Does anyone know the current version of an app like this? The application works well enough. But the problem is that two flash leds don't work at the same time. It lights up white or yellow alone, but both do not work at the same time. I have a Xiaomi Mi 9 device and I find the flash led running in the developer test interface of the device and the flash led running from the normal interface does not find a difference in lighting twice or three times.
