Auto brightness in CM - RAZR HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone, I want to set the brightness of my phone correctly for daylight and night time, I was wondering how should I tweak this settings without affecting battery? Don't understand how this works.

It just changes how bright the screen is with the given lighting around you.

I will just leave it like that, lol

Lol here's mine as an example. I mainly tweaked the lowest setting to be dim so I don't go blind when I turn my phone on in the middle of the night.

Had the same problem go to settings and turn off automatic brightness if its on and slide the brightness up and then turn automatic brightness back on. That should fix it.

Looks normal if you have been looking at it. Live wallpaper and screen brightness have nothing to do with time screen is on. It will use less while on but is still on if you have it open and will use more than any other process.

App for adjusting screen saturation?

Is there such a thing?

Not that I know of. Features like this have been achieved on other phones through custom kernels. Somebody else here probably knows more though.

You can try flashing the bravia mod. If you're using viper rom it's already installed, you just have to enable it in venom tweaks. I notice greens and reds seem slightly more saturated. In all honestly the difference is practically negligible but I believe that's the closest you're going to get.
Have you tried Screen Adjuster yet? I use it for colour correction to fix the slightly warmer tonality of the One XL screen.

Yeh but it kinda looked ugly loll. I'm not sure if I was using it right xD and OK I'll try the vipermod

Thanks for the app suggestion! Colors look way better.
Brightness: 85%
Green: +2
Blue: +5
Looks pretty good. I just did that in a couple seconds though, may need more adjusting as a watch a video/view pictures or something. You can turn off the notification and set it to start on boot in the settings.

Brightness randomly changes with ics?

Sometimes my phone suddenly gets brighter and dimmer. Usually in the morning and evening, so I'm guessing its tied daylight times. Anyone know how to stop it?
Thanks

It may sound stupid, but have you checked your brightness settings? Might be set to automatic.
It was. Does that change the level depending on external light?

Yes it does. There's a light sensor which regulates the brightness - powerfull light outside, the screen gets brighter. Darker enviromental light, the screen gets darker, all this to keep a comfortable brightness for your eyes, in every condition. In automatic usually the power drains less.

Battery

Is this normal? Battery with just 1 hour already 87%? I mean, I've seen some screenshots of this phone lasting almost a day and still with 10% but mine reaches 8h with 20% already, what could it be? My phone is just 2 months old, is rooted, the bootloader is locked, that's all.

You need to dig into your apps and see what's causing the battery drain.
Look now? I was streaming a movie on Firefox but man all that battery gone so fast? There must be something else.

Make sure NFC is off and use greenify are a couple that come to mind.

What is your screen-on time?
Greenify hibernates open apps. So it's similar ti iOs multitasking. App startup may take a littlt longr, but once you switch from one app to the next, the first one will end instead of staying in the background. I have big battery drains when ever I used google music with all the background tasks music is starting. So is witched to poweramp for music. You can even set arotation lock in poweramp.
My battery usually drops by 1 % per 45 minutes if the screen is off.
What I have though is, that if I reach about 35% battery after about 2 days, the batterry level drops significantly faster. So if I am on 35 %, it's getting time for a recharge. I never get a 3rd day out of my battery.
My battery barely last a day, I use Smart Actions and still no changes

Do you have the eb 40 aka MAXX version or the regular battery? Because all screenshots of long lasting battery is with the MAXX battery.

I have a RAZR HD XT925, not an Maxx, but I've seen some screenshots of this phone lasting almost 10hours and still with 10% I know it also depends on the use, but I wasn't using it that much when I took this screenshots.

Ok so what's your screen-on time? That is one of the greatest indicators of good or bad battery life.
I guess you're referring to this:
3h 12m 17s
Sorry for not uploading a Screenshot but the wont let me do it, dunno why.

This was today, battery lasted me since I went to college on the morning. I think it was because there was a "moderate use" of it, I did surfaced the web a little, used apps like Twitter, I think today was ok, although this is not the same when on Wi-Fi.

For that amount of screen-on time, your battery life seems about right.
I think it was the settings I changed on Smart Actions, it has really helped my battery life last longer so far.
