whenever the phone is just resting on the table, it will randomly just up the lockscreen for a few seconds, then turn back off.
I do not use any auto brightness. anybody else experience this? It usually happens a few minutes after it's been used.
maybe notifications waking screen to remind you. maybe background app forcing screen wake. have you only noticed this after downloading an app . maybe try deleting recent apps and seing if it persists
i have not had this same issue but with same thing ......with auto brightness off..have you noticed while using it the screen dims. gets lighter? etc you can be on internet page and your screen goes much brighter? also sometimes goes dimmer?
i beleif it to be battery optimisation . or that turning off auto brightness doesnt really turn it off. or there is bug in software that does this.

It is quite possible that ambient display is the culprit. Look in display settings and see if it is enabled.
Hello, we understand your concerns about the display and its brightness. Here are some tips to correct your auto-brightness issue.
- Your phone will automatically adjust the screen brightness according to the ambient brightness. Clear the Automatic brightness check box to manually adjust the brightness.
- For sleep mode, the screen will lock automatically after a period of inactivity to reduce power consumption. Select Sleep to adjust the screen-off time or disable the automatic screen lock feature.
If the problem persists, try backing up your device and performing a "master reset". This should help correct any buggy issues you are having with your display. (NS)
You don't receive notification and it lights up randomly, right?!
Disable voice wake-up from Settings. The same thing happened on my P8.
So voice wake-up os begins this, I've never enabled it, I didn't thought about it

Still the problem exists. I mentioned already we have automatic brightness box unchecked and still the brightness changes.
If you're on MM try to rollback to LP

Try changing Power Plan to Performance if it is set on Smart.
Sent from my HUAWEI VIE-L29 using XDA Labs
A factory reset should solve the problem, if other solutions don't work
try enabling the power saving mode

Hi guys, using my Nexus 5 I noticed the brightness was very inconsistent, even with auto brightness turned off the screen seems to dim occasionally and then go back to full brightness during use.
Have you noticed it too, and is there any way to stop it from happening? I would really like to be able to enjoy the beautiful screen at full brightness without it going dim randomly, thanks.

Yes I noticed it too, but don't know if it is a software bug or a feature to prevent from overheating (like Samsung devices do) or a hardware problem. It is quite annoying!
Follow this Guide at Your Own Risk.
I am not responsible for bricked devices, lost data, thermonuclear war or getting fired for missed alarm or whatever happens to your device by following my instructions​
I have been a long time Lux user. But what I found, that Lux is bugged with some compatibility checking wakelock. Also, Lux uses screen overlay which is a problem. For a lot of system features in Marshamllow loaded S7edge alerts that an screen overlay has been detected and this must be disabled. Therefore, I configured Tasker (Paid software available on android market), my most favourite automation tool for android. So, where is the catch?
Process:
1. Disable Auto Brightness and Create a New Task in Tasker.
2. Select Action Category > Display > Display Brightness
3. Then Set Brightness Level value at 15 (Or whatever lowest brightness you're comfortable at)
4. Below, set if parameter as "%LIGHT < 20 (Or whatever brightness level you want for 15% of brightness)
Repeat Process 2-4 to create multiple steps for your brightness level adjustments.
Now, in Tasker profiles, you add a new profile to be triggered by "Events > Display > Display On and assign the created Task.
You can also adjust your brightness on per app basis when you want a specific app to have a set brightness level by following the same process except when creating a profile you have to select "Applications" and assign the created Task or a similar task created separately.
Update:
I have attached a Tasker configuration xml to get started with.
Please note that this guide will setup auto brightness to be adjusted on device wake. You can hook this update to any event as you want.
Tested working on SM-G935FD. Should work on any Tasker compatible android device with Light Sensor.
What's wrong with auto brightness?

+1.... I think that Android is great because of the customization option available, but sometimes people just over-customise.
There is nothing wrong with Auto-Brightness, and in case you have a problem with it, just override it using the bar on the notification panel.
Still, although I will never use it, this is a nice tutorial.

Default Auto brightness implemented in S7 edge is buggy. here on xda you can check it out.

But this is not over-customization, at least in my opinion. It means taking more control. I have been using (and many other people are) Lux to adjust the auto brightness behavior which polls sensor data at a specific period, whenever the screen is on. But if you use this guide, it will give you a auto brightness customization solution without polling light data from sensor all the time. even though the sensor will be on, it will not be active. I am not sure that it will impact on battery or not, but it gives me more control over the brightness adjustment.
cheers!

Good point. Though I don't see the issue on my device, Auto-Brightness works as I expect it to. It gets very bright on sun, and dim on dark rooms (though I would like it to go a tiny bit dimmer to be perfect). Will this Task auto adjust or you need to select the desired brightness yourself?

You can select the desired brightness level according to your comfort.

According to http://www.greenbot.com/article/303...brightness-fixes-a-major-mobile-headache.html and this: http://www.displaymate.com/Galaxy_S7_ShootOut_1.htm you can customize according to your liking .. hadn't tried it though all I need is the AOD to shine a lil bit dimmer
The drawback to this is that it only adjusts brightness based on the level when you turn the screen on. If the ambient light changes, the screen brightness won't change with it.
Hello everyone,
I noticed that after updating my Mate 8 to Android 7, my screen seems to have an Auto brightness functionality going on, even though I've turned auto-brightness off.
For example, when my screen is in direct sunlight, I notice that my apps are brighter, and when I cover my light sensor they become darker even though my brightness is set to max all the time.
Anyone know why this happens?

There is an option in developer options
Please check the screenshot.
Increase visibility under sunlight
Check if this option is turned on. If it is on then switch it off and see if your problem is resolved. :good:

Hey, thanks! I didn't know that option was there.
I've turned it off now, and I'll see if this fixes my issue.
I have XZ Premium dual sim CE1.
Screen brightness automatic.
Brightness changes under the ambient light, but the brightness bar does not move.
It stands 2/5 in length.
When I manually change the brightness of the bar, it will move where I touch my finger and stay there.
After a clever change of brightness, the machine stops working.
Automatic brightness does not work.
I have to enter settings, turn off auto brightness and turn it back on. Then it starts to work but the strap is in place at 2/5 length as in the beginning.
Prior to upgrading, the slider bar moved along with the automatic brightness change. After updating it is always in place.
I upgraded my phone and then repaired the software via Xperia Companion. It did not change anything. The issue still exists.
Several friends have the same problem.
Applies single and dual sim.
Please if you have similar help then fix it.
Reporting an error with the RGBC sensor has resulted.
Sony has promised to fix the bug.
Now I need to report an error with the backlight of the screen.
The thread to report a bug with brightness is here:
https://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-XZ-Premium/Android-Oreo-Adaptive-brightness-bug/td-p/1272706
I have this problem too, mostly when it is dark the brightness keeps changing from dim to bright back and forth until I just disabled adaptive brightness. I'm pretty sure I had this problem before the update but it wasn't nearly as bad, mine is typically stuck on the lowest brightness.
Report a bug in Sony forum and help fix it.
Have Auto-Brightness problem in Nougat.
It turns dark and stays there, manual setting works without any problem
hi,
Now after the pie update we got this super new feature...
But in my case most of the time my display brightness is to dark. I always have to adjust it manually.
Is there any way to reset adaptive brightness? There are some tutorials in the internet but on my HTC I don't have this reset feature.
Best regards

Uhm... That is adaptive brightness right there. You SHOULD adjust the brightness when you're in a specific place and your phone will eventually "learn" it a few times you're in that area.
Note that adaptive brightness is a combination of sensor, location and even network (whether you're connected to some WiFi).
Again, when it's dark, INCREASE your brightness. Do that a couple of times when you go back to the same place. THAT is how you calibrate adaptive brightness.
And still it don't work like I want it. In my home network it dimes always to dark. I have adjusted it hundred times. But still no changes...
