I got my Moto G3 yesterday and I noticed the screen was very bright, I checked the brightness level and it was on the middle of the slider, with Adaptive Display on. I tried adjusting the slider but nthing happens, I tried turning Adaptive Display off, still nothing happens. Doesn't matter if I'm in a room with no light or if I'm outside on the sun, the screen is always on what I assume is 100% brightness.
I have also tried a factory reset, updated to Android 6, downloaded a 3rd party app to adjust brightness, getting it on safe mode... nothing works
It is really annoying having the display at full brightness always, battery drains, phone screen gets really hot, etc
Someone have a possible solution? I don't want to stay more days without a phone by taking it to warranty.
Even I noticed that the screen's brightness is same from 1% to 30% (approx).. It doesn't change at all.
What variant do you guys have?
Xt1550 (Indian 16GB)
Hey
I have UK version of the P20 Pro and since updating to .110 I have a bug.
When brightness is on 100% either through Auto or Manual, and you turn on the screen in direct sunlight, the screen lights up slowly, rather than straight away.
The only way I can stop it is to set brightness manually below 100%, even 99% works.
Just a heads up to anyone else who has the issue.
Cheers
hello all this is my very first post and question. I have a Samsung Galaxy A20 which is tied to MetroPCS in the United States AKA T-Mobile prepaid. Anyways this phone has the automatic brightness turned off. I still notice however that the screen will get slightly dim or bright when I'm sitting in the living room and this does not have anything to do with reflection. The brightness slider does not move either. again, I make sure the automatic brightness is turned off in settings and always have phone set to max bright.
Okay upon further research I have figured out a fix. Apparently Android pie has an adaptive brightness artificial intelligence. You have to go into device health services and reset adaptive brightness when it starts doing that. Hope this helps someone.
Edit again nevermind this morning the display is still dimming about 10 or 20 percent it looks like.
I'm having trouble using the Poco in places with a lot of light, because the sunlight mode keeps turning on and off like crazy, anyone knows how to turn it off for real? already disabled in Display > Brightness Level > Sunlight mode
Turn off auto-brightness

the auto brightness is already turned off, even so the sunlight mode keeps turning on
Search for sunlight mode in settings, the first option you will see is auto brightness when it is off you can toggle off sunlight mode below it.
I understand that the P7P is supposed to have a brighter screen then my retired P6P. Yesterday, I had my P7P in the car holder on a sunny day. Even at 100% brightness with adaptive brightness turned off the screen was hard to see.
Anyone else having a problem seeing the screen when outside?
Do you have adaptive brightness on or off?
In Exkm, I see a display option for High Brightness Mode (HBM) which I will try the next time.
I understand at high brightness that power consumption is also very high.
Any thoughts on seeing the screen when outside on a sunny day?

You have to turn it on, unless its max is only at 1000 nits, not 1500 like with Adaptive Brightness.
Turn the adaptive brightness on, you can get 1500nits brightness.
But it drains the battery really fast.

Just an FYI, you won't see 1,500 nits just by turning on the adaptive brightness on. Picture a screen with a white box in the middle and a black background.
Let's say that whitebox takes up 1% of the entire screen and black takes up 99%. The screen might boost that white box to 1500 nits (at maximum brightness slider). So it looks really bright.
Now let's say you expand that box and it takes up 20% of the screen and 80% is black. The screen is going to lower the brightness maybe down to 1000 nits.. even though the slider is still at 100%.
Then let's say you expand the box all the way, takes 100% of the screen, it's all white. The screen automatically lowers the brightness down to 800 nits, even though again the slider is at 100%.
The main apps that I want to see during the day while driving are Maps and Waze. Light mode seems better than Dark mode, but it was still hard to see the maps even at 100% brightness.
I use Velis Auto Brightness from PlayStore to care my screen brightness.

Velis Auto Brightness looks interesting. Are you running it on the P7P?
Did you turn off the built in Adaptive brightness?
Can you use high brightness mode with Velis?

I would be absolutely shocked if Velis can engage "high brightness mode".
If you cannot engage "high brightness mode" by turning off auto-brightness and moving the slider bar all the way to the right, then Velis probably can't do it either.
"High brightness mode" is typically only available via stock Auto Brightness or via rooted options.
It only comes on under special circumstances and you cannot leave it at "high brightness mode" for as long as you want (without using root options).

That doesn't seem right, this screen is brighter than my pixel 6 pro at 100% and easier to read outside. HBM you mentioned doesn't seem to work with EXKM and HBM, or at least for me it doesn't, and have set all the permissions and given it root access. There is a difference but it is so tiny it might as well not be there, and my screen is 75% normal when testing.
