Screen brightness on 808 - after timeout even brig...

Hello,
I have set my screen (backlight) brightness on 808 Belle FP2 to minimal possible (and in the night it's still too much imho).
I have set the display timeout to 5s (minimum). However, after this timeout, the screen gets brighter instead of turning backlight off or at least keeping it minimal.
Is this a known bug? Can I do somethign with it?

Hi fantomas,
I can confirm this bug. With the great app "Situations" I have created a "night" situation on my 808 (FP 2) where the phone goes into powersaving mode. There, the lowest screen brightness is chosen. Sometimes, a few seconds after the last touch on the screen, it becomes brighter. Touching the screen again makes it go back to the correct (=lowest) brightness level.
It shouldn't be too hard for the ex-Nokia emploxees at Accenture to fix that.

  • Display screen is turned off after timeout even when blanking disabled

    After a recent update which among other things upgraded gnome to 3.10 my display blanking policy no longer behaves according to a configuration.
    Currently it is being turned off (monitor says "no DVI signal" and switches off) after each 10 mins if idle time.
    In Gnome's Power Settings I have 'Blank Screen' set to Never.
    It used to work perfectly earlier, no blanking, but now it blanks not only when I'm idle, but even when watching some movie in VLC.
    I am not sure if this has to do with Gnome update or some other system component is causing this.
    Using nvidia driver.
    Any hint or link to the topic with the workaround would be greatly appreciated.
    I tried google and local forum search and found nothing on the topic

    I just noticed myself this annoying issue and I do not use Gnome nor GDM.
    The thing is after checking the xset settings with
    xset q
    I noticed that the DPMS settings for Standby, Suspend and Off were back to their default values (60/60/600) instead of the 0/0/0 as I am using
    xset s off &
    in my openbox autostart file to avoid the screen blanking.
    The way I fixed it was to simply run
    xset -dpms
    being the DPMS featured as disabled when queried.
    Afterwards I checked that the screen did not blank again and 1) logged out and 2) restarted checking both times that the DPMS were the ones expected (0/0/0).
    Thus, so far, I have no issues with the screen blanking in a non Gnome environment (Openbox) anymore.

  • Screen brightness not changing after update to windows 10

    Hello, After updating to windows 10, I am no longer able to adjust the screen brightness at all.  It is stuck on the brightest setting at all times; which is inconvenient when I am on battery power and need it dimmed. The f2 and f3 buttons are not working to adjust the brightness, and I am unable to change it in power/power plan settings. I attempted to search for a possible missing driver that I had maybe lost upon updating, but there are yet no drivers for my product on the HP website for this purpose. Any help on this matter is extremely appreciated, as it is rather frustrating that I can't change my screen brightness. Thanks.

    How about using the snipping tool to create an image of what you do see and posting it here.  The snipping tool is what I used to create the image that I posted.  What version of Windows 10 is installed?  I upgraded to Windows 10 Pro on the Omen 15 and have the Enterprise version on one of my desktop systems. I have not yet used the HOme or Education versions, so I do not yet know which features they lack. 

  • Screen Brightness control disappeared after upgrading to Mountain Lion

    Hello all.
    I've just upgraded to Lion, and now I can't adjust the brightness of my screen anymore!
    Anyone else has this problem?

    I was having the same problem after I completely tore down my Macbook Pro mid-2010 in order to replace the keyboard.  (Phew!)  After re-asssembling, everything was working again except for the screen brightness buttons (F1,F2).  I figured it was a bad keyboard, but after zapping the p-ram, the brightness buttons now work as they should.  Thanks for the tip!

  • Screen brightness not working after updating windows 10

    My Lenovo g50-70 laptop screen brightness button not working and I also not able to adjust brightness of my laptop.it is fixed at maximum level after updating windows 10. Find a solution for this problem.

    I have the same problem with my HP Pavilion 17-e073ed notebook. As far as I can tell everything seems to be working again BUT the brightness function keys.
    I tried downloading a few of the quick key drivers but they're still not working.

  • Screen brightness at max after restart

    everytime i start my macbook the brightness of my screen is set to the highest level. no matter what level i choose when i work it always adjusts itself to max when i start. any solution what i could do? i had a motherboard replacement and never experienced this problem before.

    are you using the fast user switching screen?
    i.e. when you restart/start, does it display a choice of users before you go to your desktop window?
    I have been getting a bit irritated as I've noticed mine does the same thing ~ As I read your question, however, I realized the fast user switching/system preferences at my logon screen may be the problem...as I am not YET logged into "my" preferences until I sign in from that point.

  • Can't disable auto screen brightness on M92z even after using power manager

    I find the auto screen brightness annoying and have been trying to disable it.  When I go into power manager and turn off "auto" it works, but once I reboot, it's back on again.
    I've gone into the sensor section of power manager and disabled the sensor but that too does not stick.  I've also checked that "magic brightness" setting as well.  Nothing seems to stick after a reboot.  Things work until I reboot.
    I have installed the latest power manager, but 2 things seem strange.  website says latest version is 3.40.0002 but when download and install that version it reports 3.40.0001 (notice the 1 vs the 2).  Also in control panel it says power manager 32 bit but my OS is Windows 7 64 bit.

    Alright, so this is ridiculous. Back to square one with nothing booting. I managed to get it booted up once fully, and another time booted off the OS10.3 disc (froze during disk repair in Disk Utility).
    I don't have another hard drive to try, and I've taken it apart and reset everything.
    Any ideas?

    Hey, I tried updating the driver, I googled something like intel graphic 4400 windows 10

    read at descriptions to see compatible chipset.  After I downloaded it started installing and the screen starting to do the "power off" think it does whenever you're installing video drivers et voila!  ´the brightness went down and now my "brightness up and down" keys are working ='3 
    I hope this help you guys  

  • Completely unsolvable: Cannot change screen brightness after I upgraded my ThinkPad's display.

    I have a ThinkPad X240 which came with a 1366x768 TN panel, I hated it and so after a while I upgraded it to an IPS 1080p display. It works great and looks fantastic except it's stuck on max brightness inside of Windows 8.1. I cannot change the brightness inside of Intel HD graphics settings or inside of programs like Display Tuner. It doesn't work in Windows 10 either. The weird thing is, I can change the brightness just fine inside of Ubuntu. I've tried uninstalling the Intel HD drivers and reinstalling them, I've tried switching the drivers to the Microsoft Basic Display Adapter, and none has worked. I feel like I've installed every single version of Intel's Graphics Drivers and that I've done everything and it still won't change the bloody brightness. NOTHING has worked except to just use Ubuntu, which is not an adequate solution. I've even gone as far as to update my BIOS and reset it to defaults, I've even pulled the CMOS battery. I've tried the version of the Intel HD driver from Lenovo for the X240 and I've installed the monitor.ini files. I've also just learned that during the Windows Boot Logo, the FN keys WILL change the brightness, but as soon as Windows is done booting, it stops working. This, coupled with the fact that brightness control works in Ubuntu means that this must be something related to Windows right? Brightness control works in BIOS. I've even gone so far as to try and change the brightness through CMD using powercfg according to this post. http://superuser.com/questions/472081/can-i-force-a-greater-screen-brightness-from-windows-command-prompt I'm really starting to lose patience now as it has been like this for 3 weeks and I can't be using Ubuntu all of the time, I honestly do not know what to do, it seems like this problem is completely unsolvable. Edit: I even got so frustrated that I switched off the laptop, installed the old screen, booted up Windows, and the brightness worked. Then (I know this is a bad idea) WHILE IT WAS ON, I pulled the old display and put connected the new one. And lo and behold, the brightness **bleep**ING worked in windows on the new display.

    try change drivers

  • Pureview 808 - Need constant screen brightness: Ho...

    On the Nokia 808, even though the screen brightness is set to a predefined brightness and Power Saving mode is Off, the screen brightness can change at times.  The time limit for the backlight is set at 60 seconds, but the LCD screen can dim a bit within that time.  My guess is the brightness changes in response to ambient light changes.
    Its hard to adjust exposure compensation and evaluate photos for proper exposure when the LCD screen brightness changes on me.
    Anyone know how to keep the LCD display brightness constant?
    Thanks in advance,
    Keith.

    Wow, thank you very much!  By downloading the "Brightness" app, the screen brightness is now constant!
    Now I'm able to get a handle on how much exposure compensation to use since the display isn't a variable anymore.
    Also it appears that I'm not losing images when shooting in burst mode anymore.  Perhaps the change in screen brightness operation led to corrumption while the image was being saved.  Before the Brightness app, 1 out of 3 images in a burst would almost always be lost.  Its too early to know for sure.  Only time will tell if the corruption problem has been completely mitigated as  a byproduct of using the Brightness app.
    Thanks again,
    Keith.

  • Flashcards for screen brightness no longer work after BIOS upgrade

    I have a Toshiba Satellite T135D/1320S laptop, and last night I upgraded the BIOS to v1.90 under the recently released recall notice.  AFter installing the BIOS, however, the Flashcard brightness controls no longer work. Whenever I press FN-6 or FN-7, the screen brightness Flashcard pops up and the toggle on the slider bar moves back and forth, but the brightness of the screen does not change.
    I have disabled and re-enabled the Flashcards as suggested in a separate forum, and I've also downloaded the most recent display driver (AMD display driver v8.615).  Neither effort corrected the problem.
    Anyone have any other suggestions?

    Satellite T135D-S1320
    Sometimes it helps to reset the machine. With the battery and AC adapter removed, close the Power switch for half-a-minute. Re-attach those, press the Power button to turn the computer on, and then immediately press the F2 key while the Toshiba logo is displayed. Press F9 to restore the BIOS default settings, press F10, and then select Yes (Exit Saving Changes). The computer will restart.
    Another things to try is reinstalling the TVAP.

  • T410 screen brightness settings not restored after sleep

    I have a T410 with the NVIDIA graphics option. When the machine wakes up from sleep (only tested on battery power), the screen brightness is always set at 0 regardless of what power policy setting I use. Even if I switch from power setting to power setting, the screen brightness still remains at 0.
    This problem does not occur when the machine is first booted as switching power profiles will set the screen brightness to whatever is setup in the profile.
    I am enable to increase the brightness using the keyboard but its frustrating to have to do it all the time. I do have the dim timer set on some of my power policies to kick in between 1-5 minutes.
    Anybody else having the same problem or have any fixes for this?
    I have updated all my drivers, BIOS, Windows Update etc. I have also tried to manually reinstall the power management driver, power management utility and the NVIDIA display driver without any change.

    are you people using Thinkvantage Power Manager 3.20?

  • Screen brightness to 1 bar after wakeup after sleep!!

    Has anyone experienced that when you wake your macbook up after sleep the screen brightness is set to 1 bar...
    dont know if this is actually a problem or if it can be set in system pref..
    thanks in advance for your replies...

    Have you tried toggling on and off the automatic adjustment for ambient light? Try checking and unchecking it's box, System preferences>Display>uncheck box. This should keep the brightness of the display constant.
