I have my brightness timer set to automatic. When I get ready to use my phone outside on a sunny day it takes like 2 or 3 secs for the screen to brighten up so I can see it. I would like to keep my phone on automatic brightness, but I was wondering if there was a timer somewhere in the system that could be changed using root explorer? Any help would really be appreciated.
I'm truly getting tired of this. I want auto dim turned off completely. Every 10 seconds I'm not touching the screen, it auto dims. I have the screen to stay on when charging and not to sleep for minutes when not charging. But the Auto dim stays on.
I've seen an app that shuts it off under specific apps. But That app is a fail to me. I want it off! I never want the screen to auto dim. The device has auto backlight brightness and that is all I want.
Anyone knows how I can do this? Maybe a file to edit? something?
Device: Galaxy Tab 7, CWM 5 with CM9
Nobody seriously knows how to shut off the auto dim?
Hİ. My brightness mode is "auto". But when i am outside, and
on sunny days, i unlock the phone, but can't see the display 4-5 seconds
because of sunlight. I think the brightness must increase step by step.But
on my device I wait 4-5 seconds. And then can see in a sudden way. Auto brightness mode is very slow. Is the
problem device or Android 5?
Hi all
Is there any way to even custom make a face with the watchmaker or the galaxy watch designer but keeping the hour and minutes hands fully bright as in full brightness when in AOD mode?
You see I just want to be able to check time on my motorbike when driving with a glance in fully sunny day and not looking for a shady place on the street:laugh:
Thanks

I think you can't control the brightness decreasing when the watch switches to AOD mode. I remember in Watchmaker there was a option to tune the brightness in AOD mode but it was never as bright as in normal mode.
What could help you is this app: Flaunt
It will keep your display on for 30 minutes but at a cost of battery life

I will have to try that! In the meantime, I think I've exploited a bug/glitch on my Galaxy Watch 3. I can't show it in a photo because of auto light adjustments, but it looks at least 1.5-2X as bright as the dim limitation.
I set my brightness to 5, with auto brightness on and screen timeout at 5 minutes - seems to consumer about 1% extra battery per hour.
1) In WatchMaker, set screen timeout to default, and 70% OPR in bright mode (15% is all you can do in dim mode)
2) With Tasker on your phone, set up an event triggered by time (i.e. 8AM - 11PM) that repeats every 5 minutes
3) Use the WatchMaker plugin to send that same face to your watch.
It may take a cycle or two to sync up, but what it does is tricks or freezes the watchface in something substantially brighter than the 15% OPR, I'd assume maybe 70% of whatever it is in brightness.
The hour and minute hand still update every minute. In fact, you will see the now frozen second hand move for about 3 seconds every minute as the time updates. I might just drop the second hand if I can't figure out how to hide it selectively. As an added bonus, the refresh doesn't activate the face, it will flash and the hands update but it remains in dim mode.
I think you can disable the vibrate notification for a face change. It flashes quite quickly on refresh - 1-2 seconds. I wonder if there's a way to disable the "white" flash on refresh? Otherwise, I'm pretty happy with it for a more usable AOD with faces that are otherwise hard to see at 15% OPR.
WARNING: Don't forget about burn-in. I'm creating a mesh overlay (basically 1 pure black pixel per 11x11 square) that will "rotate" every minute to duplicate the burn-in protection. Instead of shifting pixels, it will black out very pixel once every hour or two. Then I also have a rotation of black/dark gray screens with an equal number of colored faces.
I have put on screen smart stay, put screen timeout to 2 mins and my screen still dims after a couple of seconds which is annoying when watching you tube etc
I also don't have adaptive brightness on
I can't figure it out to save my life can anyone help please
Thanks
