AOD is much brighter in dim lighting since I installed the August OTA. Has anyone else noticed this?

Who here uses the auto brightness on the captivate? I noticed that when i have it checked off, it makes the screen dimmer than it used to be. When the screen is dimmed too far, i realized that we're not taking advantage of the super amoled. The colors just look average when the screen is dark. I checked the auto brightness off and the difference is night and day. I have the brightness around 40 percent. my only question is, will my battery take a HUGE hit from this?
btw, what exactly is power saving mode? i originally thought it was the same as the auto brightness but im guessing im wrong.
I don't use auto brightness on mine. I usually keep it all the way dim and my batter lasts wonderfully long. And when Im trying to look at something that i think needs to be brighter i just slide my finger across the notification bar to the right. To me power saving mode i think just adjusts the brightness based on the colors of the image it is displaying. I've had it on since I've had the device though so i don't know exactly how it works.

I keep mine on the dimmest setting since it still looks great, and even downloaded the screen dimmer app recently. I've never used anything higher though... I take public transit and actually feel conscious about how insanely bright and vibrant the screen can be to people near me and never turn it up.
When I'm outdoors during daylight hours, the only way to discern anything on the display is at full bright. Yes, there is a big hit on the battery. I get about 4 hours, but I have a spare battery at the ready.
Has anyone else noticed this? I just got my Maxx yesterday and thought my eyes were playing tricks on me, but every time auto brightness drops to the minimum the screen turns grays purple. I'm just curious if I have a defective phone or if it's just the way the panel is.

It seems reddish to me, Is this your first amoled screen? I have noticed that each amoled screen seems to have its own quirks at low brightness.

No, I've had plenty. I remember the GNex having the same problem too.
Its just the nature of AMOLED at low brightness levels, mine too is purple is down low, but really evens out by like 1/4 to 1/3 brightness
I have lux from the market. Keeps my lowest point at 18 which is perfect for battery. The phone auto brightness turns brightness all the way down which is why you see the prior tint.

Hello. Has anyone encountered their screen going very bright when on automatic brightness? I have some instances where when I turn on the phone the screen will be bright and adjust itself or if I'm viewing something the screen will all of a sudden go to 100% brightness.

My light sensor is fubar too.
Yeah my light sensor sometimes tweeks out and cranks itself to like 100% in total darkness when it should be like 20% a reboot solves it though
I find it best to keep the brightness at a comfortable level and just leave it there. The auto brightness doesn't work too well.
Hi there, i got a sony xa fs3111 6.0 marsmalow with build number 33.2.A..4.70 , and im experiencing some bugs with adaptive brightness, when its on my screen constantly changes brightness when scrolling fb ir doing something, but only with adaptive brightness i can set my brightness to really 0%, when AB is off and i slide down screen brightness to 0% it feels like theres too much brightness and my eyes hurt at night, i've seen this problem around but anyone can post if there's a solution to this? btw im not rooted.. just bought this phone 1 week ago
Sorted this one out myself... When using stamina mode AB flickers maybe due to downclocks of cpu and to make battery last longer, turning off stamina mode AB works fine with nice transition, but still with stamina off and ab off screen is like 10% brighter than with ab, maybe someone will benefit of this info.
I have had my OP6 since the week it was released and have dirty flashed every ROM till 9.0.8. Adaptive brightness was always too dim in earlier versions, but seemed to get better with 9.0.7. I finally did a clean flash when 9.0.8 was released, and now adaptive brightness seems too dim again. Is anyone else noticing this, or is this more likely something to do with the clean flash?
