Just wanna ask, which is more battery friendly. To set your screen brightness to auto or not? :cyclops:
For me , auto brightness eats more battery...
I set brightness to 20-30% for indoor , 70% for outdoor ..

Auto brightness uses the sensors and the cpu as far as I know. That means it consumes more power. I also set brightness around 20-30% indoor and also outdoor... No sunshine in Scotland...
Auto brightness also sets the values way too high in most circumstances, doing it manually is much better for battery life

If you don't have the status bar brightness mod (or cm brightness mod) this is a great app. I use it to replace auto brightness, and I set an almost invisible slider on the left side of my screen to leave brightness as a manual setting and be able to bump it up on the fly without leaving an app.
It's called Display Brightness by bigrubberpepper

I also set brightness around 20-30% indoor and also outdoor but im going t try Display Brightness thx CharliesTheMan :good:
So manual brightness it is then, thank for the reply! will be using that CM brightness mod also
I've find the nexus screen generally way too bright and max it to 7% normally. At night I have it at 0% using the reduced brightness kernel under the experimental kernel.
What i would like to know is, is there a way of making the brightness slider have a custom range from say 0-15% or something?

Is there anyway to increase the brightness to the always on display? Seems like it should be a little brighter?
Thanks, Vinny
Seems to get brighter as the brightness in room increases. I just didn't give it enough time to work.

Hi mate
But that sounds about right , the brighter the room the brighter the display has to be in order to see it better ( when in auto mode) , disable the auto brightness under display and set it manually to a high value .... ... see if it helps
i'm using superman rom v1.8, the always on display doesnt seem to change position but i heard that it only changes 1 pixel per minute,
my question is how do we know if its postion changed or not?
I noticed with auto brightness off and max brightness enabled the screen still gets brighter in sunlight. Even when i turn outdoor mode on it is not as bright as when the sun hits the sensor. I want to know if there is a way to enable this maxed out brightness setting without it turning off everytime a shadow is cast over the sensor. A max "nits" toggle of some sort. Using high battery is not an issue when i need this mode is when im riding in a work truck so i have a charger. Thanks for any input.

Is there any way I can set screen brightness above its maximum capacity?
It is no news that this phone doesn't have such a bright screen as it features an LCD display. But sometimes this gets even more annoying specially when it comes to gaming. That said, I've been wondering if we could increase brightness level beyond what it is. Maybe a feature on a custom ROM or kernel if possible (?)
I've also read somewhere that Android doesn't let you set actual max brightness by yourself on manual mode so it'll go into its maximum capacity only on auto/adaptive brightness mode. If this is true, could we trick on that somehow?

No you cant increase it , if you probably do it will damage the screen , LCD has 450nits on manual and somewhere 550 nits on Auto(MAX),i didnt see any room with the feature of increasing to 550 in manual ,only auto works .
Everyone says the brightness is not really sufficient, but on my X3 Pro 8/256 max brightness is really bright/strong. Just got the phone a week ago. Is it possible they changed display panel in the manufacturing process?

Maybe, or it could be just a matter of perception. I've also wondered if it's possible to replace the original display for a brighter one but I think that would implicate other physical parameters such as voltage and current.

Actually I've found a way to do it. Derpfest ROM has a feature named "high brightness mode" or "HBM". It does increase brightness above the max level. It makes a slight difference but yet perceptible. I think it needs kernel support to work also.

You can do it on any rom which doesn't support hbm by default using root and changing the kernel but it will properly have some bugs.
su -c "echo 4095 > /sys/class/backlight/panel0-backlight/brightness"
Simple!
