I generally like the adaptive brightness setting on this phone, but I often find it sets itself to the absolute lowest brightness setting on occasions where it seems inappropriate. If there a way to change adaptive brightness so that it keeps the screen a little brighter?

I too experience this. Would love to hear if this is persistent across all users. The adaptive brightness is too dim even in a moderately lit environment.

I did use the search and found the same thread you had linked before... But the workaround is for rooted users only.
Sorry for the trouble. Just wanted to know whether someone has any update on this issue being acknowledged by OnePlus and whether a possible fix is on the way.

No need to get rude dude. Did they mention anything about rooting the phone or installing xposed or Magisk? That being said, guys there are some kernels that can help ir try play store for some available apps.

There won't be a fix, because it isn't an issue
OnePlus does this since the OnePlus 3, and they will keep it.
You really have to root your phone when you want to change it

Under the Heading "Last but not Least" , first paragraph last sentence addresses about the adaptive brightness.
Could you please share some info on the flickering issue you are referring to ?

You could use the third party app lux to manage Auto brightness

I explain you my issue...
First thing to say is that I had the same problem on my Galaxy S5 and of this reason I think that there is some app that causes this issue.
The problem is that the light sensor works normally when the outdoor luminosity increases, but the brightness of the screen doesn't reduces if the outside luminosity is going down until I block/unlock the phone again.
The result is that if I'm ouside during a sunny day and the brightness is set to the maximum level, also if I go to a cellar the brightness doesn't change.
Does anyone else have the sam issue?
Thanks
I'm having the same issue. Wish I knew what was causing it, but haven't a clue. Hopefully someone can help.

It's a very strange issue. I'm using Lux that is working fine but it would nice to be able to use also the default brightness slider in the notification panel.
I've used lux in the past on previous devices, but forgot all about it. Gonna give it a try!

Hello, I'm looking for testers for High Brightness Mode Widget: mod edit: link removed
have promo codes for the first five people to post here and willing to report back to me.
It will make your screen extremely bright at the touch of a button. However, it requires root.
Works on other Samsung devices with AMOLED screens, so it will probably work on the s7, but I need confirmation.
can test it if u want
got a G935F , Exynos Version
I can test. Pm me
Sent from my Blackberry Bold
Can test also

App is working flawlessly, really did not know that the screen could be any brighter than max....

Thanks all, it's confirmed working.
I will send a promo code to @manager77 and one other lucky person tonight.
is there any way to use something like this if your not rooted. Verizon will never allow root on this device

Yes, it's really bright. I wouldn't use it indoors. It's for direct sun, or bright environments like beaches or snowy areas.

What do you mean? I've heard that there is some issue with brightness on Samsung but I don't know what it is.
I'm pretty sure this widget does something different than you think. It kicks the screen into a different hardware mode that is extremely bright. Much brighter than turning the brightness slider up all the way.

If you are playing indoors then turn off automatic brightness, that should help with the brightness problems.

Don't think replacement will be possible now and seems it some good amount of time you have phone with you now whereas the replacement may be applicable only for fee days of purchase

Mine is less than 10days. Replacement is still available. My question is, whether everyone has this problem or only few. If everyone, there's no use in replacing.

Honestly, I never thought ok google would work with screen off for non pixel devices... But it works for OP6.. Just tried it..
This helps in unlocking the phone will driving and directly making calls..

It's strange for me that this is news because I've been using custom romsnfor so long that had this implementated. It's a good feature
I think the idle drain will be about the higher than without it (this is what I have noticed) but it's not massive so definitely a recent trade off if you like the service. I have a few Google homes and they all pick up my voice but then it knows from which device to reply from based on what's nearest to you.
I've used this mainly for turning on Bluetooth and setting navigation whilst driving. Also asking questions whilst driving that I want the answer to.

I doubt if custom roms would make any difference. I have used oneplus 1 and op3 but none of the custom roms for these devices had this feature.. Interesting point you made about multiple Google homes devices and the nearest one reverts back.. Didn't know this..
