How to disable high brightness screen when using camera - HTC One A9

Is it possible to make a screen brightness normal while using a camera

I wish this was possible also.

It's limited by android.
You can flash CM on A9 to have this function.

[Q] Overbright screen

Hi!
We all know that Motorola changed the brightness settings in 2.2.2 so the screen is on 100% less bright then on 2.1 (eclair).
The same thing is on CM7.1 which I use.
So my question is, is there any way to "over"bright Defy-s screen? Or a way to use eclair screen brightness settings on CM7? I need more brightness, that's why I'm asking
Please reply, mihovil13.

I would greatly appreciate this if it can b done.
Anyone knows how?
I must say, I have not noticed a decrease in brightness at all.. Is there some proof? Did someone measure the strength, in lumen for instance?
My Defy shipped with froyo so idk about 2.1 but when i toggle brightness settings auto seemes to go just a little higher then full brightness for a sec so it does seem possible but i have no idea how. BTW im using CM7

Activate automatic brightness and edit the brightness levels to give full brightness (255) earlier or for all levels. The Motorola kernel enables a different brightness scaling (exponential instead of linear) when using the light sensor for whatever reason, which allows a higher total brightness as a side effect.

Still didn't manage to do this...
I've measured, on CM7.1 Ep3 rls max brightness is equal to 70% brightness on official 2.2.2 or 2.3.6

Ah that explains! I use a toggle to easily switch between auto and 100% brightness because in some circumstances the screen is hard to read (most notably when standing in the shade but close to an area with bright sunlight). I always noticed the difference in max brightness between both modes and apparently it has some mathematical reason.

[Q] Miui Brightness Issue

Hello. I am running Miui 112160. And I like auto brightness but when I'm at school I like having my brightness on low so now one can see my phone. Well I can't. I turn down the brightness all the way and it's all the way up on high? No matter what app I use to turn it down (Widgets, apps ect.) It doest work. I would really love to be able to use my brightness. Thx

video playback too dark

hi folks,
I just got an n8010 and I like it alot. only thing thats bothering me is the display brightness during video playback. for normal use its fine and I set it to about 4o%, but for video playback even when set max brightness its still not bright enough. have tried all the usual players. is there a video player that can increase brightness? or a different rom that gives higher maximum brightess? I also have an acer aspire one 725 netbook, and its screen brightness is much better for video playback.
thanks,
gary.
I have the same issue.

its weird. the tablet is capable of being uber bright, yet for video not bright enough. its a shme, its the only thing I dont like about this tablet. thinking of trying a tf700t instead.
Have you made sure that power saving mode is off? It limits screen brightness, and I would guess it tries to do this especially if you are doing something that keeps the screen on for a long time, like watching a video. Also, you should check under the display settings, since there is a setting that tries to optimize the colors for different use cases. It's called screen mode. play with those settings a bit and see if your experience improves any. Finally, make sure auto brightness is off, and then you can manually put the brightness all the way up using the slider in the status bar.
Hope I helped you.
Tried all the options. It has an outdoor mode which is brighter but seems to really wash out the color. Max brightness is a good start as auto bright is never enough to watch something in thus tablet. I'm hoping to find a way to increase the brightness even more tho.

Try using MX Player and slide your finger up at the left edge of the screen while playing. This player's screen brightness is independent to system brightness, and on my device its max brightness seems even brighter.

Possible to get the 600nits brightness with an auto brightness app?

I understand when using the stock autobrightness you can sometimes get the screen to go to around 600 nits, but I've noticed it's very hard to get it there. You basically have to be directly under the sun.
I would like to use an auto brightness app so I can make the dimming less aggressive, but I also don't want to lose the 600 nits feature. Anyone found a solution?

Can an Android Rear Flash LED Brightness Intensity be Modified?

is it technically/physically/electronically possible that the LED camera Flash on the back on the Android phones be run at lower brightness intensity by software? - I mean as I understand it the 'flash' is not a xenon flash, its just an ordinary light emitting diode (LED) but just a very high brightness LED - but all the same like any other LED it should technically therefore support different brightness settings (even if only down to 10% of its full brightness) should it not? maybe by the software applying different lower voltages to the LED in the particular app?
The reason I ask is that I prefer to use flash call alert apps and these tend to use the rear camera flash (some use front screen display as well but I prefer to divert the alert to flash the camera flash light instead of the screen) so in all of these flash alert (for ringing/missed call/ unread SMS) that I have ever tried from Google Play not one of them has ever featured a way to lower the brightness of the LED Flash to a lower percentage of brightness - is this because there is no way technically to lower the brightness of the camera LED and that there is only 2 operational modes of Totally off or Totally on, full brightness of the LED state only or have app developers not realised that it would be a useful feature of their app? - I have my mobile phone in my shirt pocket most of the time, its a large 5.5" phone and the LED flash sits above the pocket and when the flash alert call goes off the LED flash 'blinds' the person standing across me because it flashes at full 100% brightness!
So does any technical person on XDA know if its technically possible to adjust the brightness of a rear camera flash LED? - or has anyone seen a flash alert app on Google Play where one of the features is that you can lower the brightness intensity of the flash? Thanks.
Yes
I have seen flashlight apps that allow the user to reduce the intensity of the flash LED. In fact, I used one for a while. But I'm not sure if this capability has been put into any notification apps. It also might depend on your phones hardware. My old phone was able to get that flashlight app from Google Play, but because it customizes the appstore to your phone's compatibilities, an app might not show up for you because of your phone's hardware's limitations. I'll keep my eye out for such an app though.
