I just flashed the final beta of CM7 to my triumph, and idk if everybody is having this problem my soft keys are flashing/flickering when i move the phone. It's not physically they are flickering because of the way the light reaches your eyes.
No way to explain it really, when you hold the phone still it's good.
I believe this is because the soft keys brightness is not high enough.
Anybody find a way to fix this,
Thankss in advance.//
I have he same thing, but not sure how to fix it.
It's a 'feature' to reduce the brightness on the softkey LEDs. By default they're turned on full brightness, and it can have light leaks that affect a dark screen on some people's phones. You can just turn it off with an app like 'adjbrightness', 'keyboard backlight control', or in CM settings - display - auto backlight - use custom & edit other levels.

If you could explain a little more of what to change on that screen it would be much appreciated. There are so many values to change that it is a bit overwhelming to me.
In the "Edit other levels", the left column is what the light sensor readings are for a certain light level, the next column is the display backlight that should be used in those situations, the right most column is what brightness the bottom capacitive buttons should be at. Set it to 0 to be off, 255 for max. Try some different values to see what suits you.
Awesome! Thank you!
Night Owl enable you to reduce the brightness of your device screen lower than you can achieve with the default settings in order to avoid eye strain or headache in a dark environment or at night. If you have an AMOLED display, you can also save battery!

Hi,
I am using my Nexus 6p in a quite screen heavy way (mostly in the car) and I am looking forward to reduce battery usage.
What I am doing at the moment is:
1) Use AutoMate in the car for navigation and music
2) Set up the screen timoeut after 15sec.
3) Use Caffeine app to prevent screen from going sleep
As an effect of this after 15 seconds my screen dims to certain level and Caffeine keeps this state all the time.
The thing is that the dimmed screen level is too high for me and I am looking forward to reduce it.
I realised that if I change the screen brightness to minimum then "dimmed" level is also lower so I suppose the system is doing something "When dimmed lower the current brightness level by x%".
I do not want to change the "screen awake" brightness level but just make the system to dim my screen by greater percentage so then I could get to nice and bright screen with just one touch without having to activate variety of apps.
So i would like to use screen Auto brightness but it sets the screen too dark or some times keeps hunting for a level ...
Any place to adjust the sensitivity of the auto brightness itself?
Right now i just turn the auto brightness off and set the screen brightness level manually

Agreed, I do the same as you. I always found that these auto-brightness functions don't work worth a squat. I don't know who is in charge of designing the sensitivity settings for it but they really don't work that well. So I always leave it on manual brightness setting and set it to my liking.
