How to set the screen brightness lower on Alcatel One Touch Evolve - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

The backlight of the Alcatel One Touch Evolve won’t get any dimmer if you set the brightness below 40 or so (out of 255). I tried RootDim, and it didn’t work any better. Neither did
Code:
echo 10 > /sys/class/leds/lcd-backlight/brightness
Any values before 40 look as bright as 40 does. But this works, if you are rooted:
Code:
echo 20 > /sys/class/leds/lcd-backlight/brightness
echo 3 > /sys/class/leds/lcd-backlight/duty
"duty" apparently designates the pulse width modulation duty cycle. Setting the duty cycle to anything between 3 and 20 will make the screen dimmer than the minimum setting you can get with the normal brightness controls. Setting to 2 turns the screen entirely black, on my phone. The maximum value is 63.
Another way to set this is in the engineer mode that you can access by dialing *#*#3646633#*#*. Swipe to “Hardware Testing” and select “Display.” You can set a PWM duty cycle on that screen. I don’t know whether your phone needs to be rooted for this method to work.
No matter how you set it, it is a temporary change and will be reset next time the screen brightness changes, or if you turn your phone screen off and back on.
Does anyone know of an app that does this? There are plenty of auto brightness apps, and some brightness apps that require root, but I don’t know of any that set both the brightness and the duty cycle. I have some shell commands set up in Tasker, but it’s not very convenient. I could try creating a widget using Tasker, but I may just try writing my own app.

The roms are under a different model name search google for roms in the alcatel one touch pop line and many will work

[Q] Tap screen to wake up?

Hello All,
Is there an app that can dim the screen of my Archos 101, and return the screen to predefined brightness with the touch of the screen?
My device is mounted on a wall and the power button is hard to get too, so having a screen dimmer that can return the screen to normal use seems like the way to go.
Or what about the screen never going to sleep, but have it do an auto dim down after a set amount of time and with the touch of the screen it returns to normal usage?
At this point I would settle for work around.
T.I.A.
u may try the app "tasker" wich has a function for brightness level...
so u can at set an idle time to turn it down,.. and hopefully also one to "unidle" or screen tap. Sadly im not sure about that exactly as i dont use takser frequently... just try it out
I also remeber an app wich was able to set a little overlay area to the screen on wich u could slide to turn up/down brightness - so u can slide down to turn it off - and up to turn it on (or left/right,...).
Will search if i can find its name... cant remember atm.
Both methods would require to disable auto turn off on idle function...
As u can WAKE UP the device with the screen while it's in sleep.
Hello FrEcP!
Thanks for the reply.
Will look at Tasker now, seems to be many options so I will need to sit down and have tea to figure this out
Screen Filter
Allows you to even set the level to dim screen to. Simple tap on it to dim, and another tap to make it normal.
Hello diablo009,
Thanks, that may be what I need!
I bought Tasker cause it is important to support our developer
Tasker did make and is still causing my brain to tingle!
Will give Screen Filter a try too.

Screen filter is more like a manual one. You got to click on it to enable or disable it.
O.K. so I tried Screen filter and it is a 50/50 solution. Yes it does dim the screen but it is manual whereas I ned something more automatic.
As for Tasker, I have drunk two pots of tea, and energy drink, and gone through two days and still this powerful app is a bit of a challenge to setup.
Anyone with experience setting up Tasker?
OBJECTIVE:
1. After 10 minutes of idle have display dimm to 50% brightness, and never shut-off.
2. With the tap of the screen have display return to 100% brightness.
In exchange for help I would be willing to baking you homemade cupcakes!

yes another problem with screen filter is - it just sets an over lay in gey color - wich means actualy your screen still is at fully brightness (wich is annoying at night /u still got an ugly high glow of the backlight + doesn't save power [k is minor for a wallmount - but still should be considered] )
Well if you would have told that (objectives) more early - your solution would have been more easy
I thought u wanted to completely turn off the screen while being idle....
Anyway:
Settings->Display->Display Timeout->10min
Settings->Display->Brightness->full
Settings->Applications->Development->Always stay on/Stay active...->true
Does exactly what u want - after the timeout (10min) the screen dims (to about 50% or lower) - sadly i can't tell how to affect this value (but it seems its the lowest value the default brightness controll, let u set)
On touch - u got the full brightness... till timeout is reached again.
Device wont ever go to sleep.
Hello FrEcP,
Your instructions worked!
50% auto dim is more on target than before, and I return to baking
Apologies for not being more clear in the beginning.
This is from the Taker Forum:
"Unfortunately you can't do this, Android doesn't provide APIs for apps
to test idle time or respond to screen taps (unless it's in their own
UI)."
Thank you again FrEcP, and diablo009!
You help to make this forum rock solid with your sharing.
workaround with screen filter works fine
I use Screen Standby on my Xoom tablet for this exact same feature. It allows you to set at what time the tablet automatically dims. I have it set for 5 minutes. And then I just tap the screen with my finger and it wakes up. It is also nice to note that tapping the screen does not push any buttons but rather just wakes the device.

[MOD] Minimum Brightness

Change the minimum brightness level from usual 10 to 1. It doesn't modify the autobrightness level map so automatic brightness won't be lowered (though it can be easily adjusted on CM11).
This is so far exactly the same as GravityBox offers (modifying 'config_screenBrightnessSettingMinimum').
But Minimum Brightness offers one unique feature - it also modifies the lower brightness levels in MX Player (free/paid). Because no matter whatever you use manual or auto brightness, MX Player always uses minimum brightness of 0.05 (12/255, 19/255, 27/255, 36/255...). To actually lower the brightness, you would have to turn off brightness control in MX Player or use one of many 'overlay filter brightness app'.
So Minimum Brightness module retains the same quadratic function for brightness levels but includes lower values (1/255, 4/255, 9/255, 16/255, 25/255...).
Minimum Brightness uses value 1/255 which might not be suitable for every display (meaning LCD) but it suits perfectly my Super AMOLED screens (Galaxy S5 / Galaxy Tab S 8.4) and watching videos at night is still enjoyable.
There are many excellent auto brightness apps (Lux, Darker etc) that can use overlay filters to lower brightness even more so it's up to everyone to try and decide.
This module has been merged into new module http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/mod-xposed-tweaks-cm-t3279109. Please check that module for any future updates.
Hello! Thanks for the mod, I will test
Works very nice on Xperia Z2, however minimum brightness is absolute darkness Could you please add an option to define minimum brightness value?

The situation is the same on my Xperia SP. When I set the brightness to miniumum the screen is totally black, also when the backlight decreases after 10 seconds screen gets black.
Hi! Tried min brightness but when screen is set to the lowest level, I get a white screen after locking the phone.
Sent from my DIAMOND D1 using XDA Free mobile app
Really great tweak!! I'm noobie in Android enviroment with my new Elephone P3000S and the lowest screen brightness is to high for me so your tweak is very usefull.
I also have the issue that the lowest brightness level sets the screen completly black and I have been scared for 1 hour truing to solve a completely black, touching all buttons but the phone didn't "wake up". Finally, pressing power buttom + volumen up + home soft key it has worked :angel:
So it would be very important to prevent black screen by allowing the user to set the minimun level.
Thanks!
Hey, I know making GUI is a pain in the ass so can you please make alternative version with minimum brightness set to 2? That will satisfy most of people complaining here. Your app is currently the only dimmer working on lollipop.

How to disable this module...?
I installed this module last night, enabled it in Xposed Framework, but did nothing with it. Then this afternoon I opened the Settings menu, went to Display, and before I could do anything else I received a phone call. As I terminated the call, the screen flashed, the phone rebooted--and after restarting it is completely, or almost completely blank. If I repeatedly tap the power button I get a fraction-of-a-second glimpse of the SIM PIN screen at normal brightness. This leads me to the suspicion that, by some weird combination of bad luck and an accidental touch of a finger after terminating the phone call, that the Minimum Brightness somehow got set--although why the phone then rebooted I don't know.
Anyway, by luck and good judgement I finally managed to enter the correct SIM PIN and then the phone unlock PIN. However, I can do nothing else. The screen is still blank, and as the phone is currently unlocked I don't want to touch the power button. Before sending the phone back to the manufacturer or anything drastic like that, I would like to try disabling the Xposed Framework. Whilst trying to find something useful in Windows Explorer I found Xposed-Disabler-Recovery.zip in the Internal storage\Android\data\de.robv.android.xposed.installer\files folder on my phone. I assume that this should be what I need. However, as I cannot see anything on the screen I would need to know the exact buttons to press, in which order and how many times etc, in order to enter the Recovery menu and do what is needed. According to the phone manufacturer the OS is unmodified Android 4.4.2., although strangely they will not even tell me which keys to press to enter the Recovery menu (long story, the upshot is, they flat out refuse to help apart from suggesting returning the phone).
Note that I only suspect it is the Minimum Brightness module that is causing the problem, however the problem did not exist before yesterday (when I installed the module), and as I was about to do something with the brightness when the phone rebooted itself, it seems too much of a coincidence to be anything else. If I cannot disable the module/framework, the only other thing I can think of is a factory reset--but again I would need to know exactly which buttons to press, in which order etc. Unfortunately at the moment USB debugging is not enabled, and again without the screen I cannot access it to turn it on.
Any help or suggestions hugely appreciated.

@Papalazzzaru
Xposed now sports a safemode which allows you to disable Xposed during bootloops. To disable Xposed, you'll have to repeatedly tap one of the hardware buttons (Power, Volume, or Home) on your device during startup.
During boot, your device will vibrate twice when it detects the first key press. You'll then have five seconds to press that same button four more times, with each keystroke producing a short single vibration. After ending with a long vibration, your device will disable and prevent most of Xposed's actions, allowing you to easily troubleshoot problematic modules.
Sorted
Outstanding, thanks.

The MX Player part still works. I don't know about the lowest value of brightness in general but at least with CM12 & Samsung the brightness goes to the hardware minimum by default.
Thanks, this is exactly what I want.
Could you make it for LP ?
I want my phone be absolute zero brightness for driving navigation.
Tested it on CM12.1 Nightly on the Nexus 6. It works here, but on 0 the screen is a bit purple. However, I guess this is the screen's fault

Yes it works
This module seems to be working well on the Moto X Pure Edition (Motorola xt1095) running Lollipop 5.1. It's an AMOLED screen, and I personally find the minimum brightness on 5.1 too bright, so this has helped solve that.

.

..
First thing first: thanks a lot for the /sys file to change ambient brightness! Gives me ideas of things to play with, ie the ambient brightness being different from the awake brightness is among the top of what I find the most baffling with Android Wear (to me, the point of ambient is to update less frequently, and to move the displayed face a little to avoid burn in: I don't need every last drop of battery; 16-20h is really enough; also, if it's not bright enough by day, it's also not dim enough by night...).
Otherwise, with Tasker and AutoWear, maybe using the screen off state, and setting ambient anew when you exit that state would work? Obviously, the system rewrites that file (it takes more than mere permissions to prevent root from doing what he wants) somewhere between when the screen goes off, and when it goes to ambient again after having been turned on, so with a little tinkering, and maybe some delays, it should hopefully be workable.

Hi there!,
I've been trying to set ambient back-light to maximum by echoing 255 to /sys/class/leds/lcd-backlight/brightness and then chmodding it to 444 for readonly, so noone will ever change it.
This kinda works, when I enter ambient mode it really is at 255 level. However trouble stars after entering theater mode - somehow this value gets changed. How can this be?
Any ideas how to debug this?

I wish I could answer your question better than this, but wearshell can query brightness values or file values through tasker by having it read your settings once every few minutes, or per minute, or whatever you like if course. if it found the value not what you want it'd fix that .. you could sideload a tasker apk that does the same, but this is inflexible and cumbersome compared to the wearshell option.

Press bixby for MAX BRIGHTNESS/OUTDOOR MODE

If you haven't realised, the S10's amazing screen quickly dims a lot when the device heats up, even by performing simple tasks so i came up with a simple fix to keep it locked to MAX unless changed using brightness slider or Adaptive (Auto) Brightness
Searching the /sys/ partition i found the brightness setting.
So, the idea is to press Bixby to activate MAX brightness/Outdoor Mode
Download and install your rightfully owned "Button Remapper" from flar2 in the playstore. # YOU NEED TO BE ROOTED TO USE THIS #
Go ahead and setup, and then click on bixby single press, and click advanced; then root command. And enter the following:
Code:
echo '48599' > /sys/class/backlight/panel/brightness
Wallah!
Your brightness will max out when you press bixby. Just make sure you turn off adaptive brightness beforehand as it will override what you did! And you can use the brightness slider to change the brightness easily again.
(Do bear in mind, your phone will heat up more than usual but thats it, just be slighly cautious and if your phone ever happened to heat up excesively, id suggest the battery not going over 50 degrees celcius as it can damage the lifespan) Me personally, had no issues. Just fantastic to squeeze out a bit of extra brightness when you need it.
Hope this helps !!
Worked like a charm XD

hey, i know this is a quite old, but s10+ manual max brightness is 300, when it enters high brightness mode it goes up to 700. My question is with root and some commands can i make 700 available through the brightness slider? So i can use 400,500,600 too instead of jumping from 300 to 700?

Question Flashlight Brightness Mod?

So apparently the 1 III suffers from the same issues as its Sony Predecessors... The Flashlight is very bright when you use it as camera flash, but when you turn on the flashlight, its artifically throttled to idk, prevent overheating?
So for the older Xperias there were ways to modify flashlight configs and librarys. However, I havent found a way to edit the current parameter for the flashlight on the 1 III. For the 5 II the GodlyTorch App seemed to work, according to a report in https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...ness-fix-torch-light-not-photo-flash.4203293/, but that doesnt want to work on my 1 III (I have Root)
Now the question: Can someone find the parameters to increase Flashlight LED Current via Magisk Module, XPosed/LSPosed Module or manual edit? I'd be even willing to donate to a kind developer who builds a usable flashlight mod for the 1 III.
Thanks in advance.
When flashlight is on and your device is rooted, you can change the value of
Code:
/sys/class/leds/led:torch_0/brightness
/sys/class/leds/led:torch_3/brightness
(There are two flash LEDs)
The max value you can set is given by the max_brightness file in the same directory.
I didn't find a way (yet) to apply this by default, you have to have the flashlight running in order to change its brightness that way.
However, I do warn you that I am not responsible in any way if using your LED at full power causes damage to your device.

Thanks for this info, working fine for me!
I played a bit around with this and tested the brightness values with 150; working fine in terms of short term heat development.
Edit 2: After a few days I start to notice a very slight discoloration of the diffusor with a value of 150. Its not affecting anything and barely visible, but I'd recommend to go lower than 150, because I suspect the LED may get too warm for the diffusor. I changed the guide to use 30 for now (which equals double the brightness compared to stock), please test your values for yourself, its probably better to not exaggerate it.
Make sure you type in the values right! Too high values and the LED Diffusor may melt, or the LED might die. Do this modification at your own risk, no matter at which brightness you target! I am not responsible for side effects resulting from the mod.
With Terminal Shortcut Pro and assigned Root Priviliges I made myself a Home Screen Icon that will boost the values for me in the current "Torch session" once the LED is turned on before. Other terminal emulator apps will work too.
In the Shortcut I set Run with Root and used the following command
Code:
echo 30 >> /sys/class/leds/led:torch_0/brightness && echo 30 >> /sys/class/leds/led:torch_3/brightness
Basically just a command that writes the 30 brightness value to the 2 files.
If someone can find a terminal command that turns on the flash in the first place, we could combine the commands to potentially make a simple but working replacement quick settings for the torch.
Edit: Thanks to the XDA Community and a Tool I was able to recreate the Torch experience with a Quick setting
You need https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.quinny898.app.customquicksettings
You have to buy the premium in app purchase for 1,29€ to unlock Root Command Running. Then you configure your quick setting (choose the Advanced -> Root Command under Preset) and paste the following script (credits to https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/increasing-torch-power-with-root.3637773/post-73098701, modified by me for 1 III)
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
toggle=$(cat /sys/class/leds/led:switch_0/brightness)
if [ "$toggle" = "0" ];then
echo 30 > /sys/class/leds/led:torch_0/brightness
echo 30 > /sys/class/leds/led:torch_3/brightness
echo 1 > /sys/class/leds/led:switch_0/brightness
echo "on"
else
echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/led:torch_0/brightness
echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/led:torch_3/brightness
echo 0 > /sys/class/leds/led:switch_0/brightness
echo "off"
fi
Once again, make sure you type in the values right! Too high values and the LED Diffusor may melt, or the LED might die. Do this modification at your own risk, no matter at which brightness you target! I am not responsible side effects resulting from the mod.
Then you get rename the toggle, give it a nice Torch Icon and set the color to grey. It will function like the normal quick setting: Tap once, it turns on, Tap again, turns off. Even works locked.
Good luck and best regards.
If you want to use the Google Assistant Button as a torch toggle and also have Quick Settings Toggle (sadly its always toggled on) i found an app that can do both.
You need:
LSposed/Xposed
Root Shell access (adb shell)
Xposed Edge pro
Busybox for Android NDK (Magisk Module)
XperiaGAButtonRemap (Magisk Module)
Open a cmd or powershell
execute adb shell
execute su
accept root permissions on your phone
execute vi /bin/torch
press the key i
paste the script:

press ESC
type :wq and press ENTER
execute chmod +x /bin/torch
Now you can execute /bin/torch as root and it will toggle the torch with higher brightness values.
In Xposed Edge enable "Keys" toggle and open it. Tap on "+ Add" at the bottom, press the Google Assistant Button, it should be recognized as "KEYCODE_PROG_BLUE", then set the action of either click/double click/long press (whatever you prefer as the torch toggle) to execute a Shell command, enter /bin/torch in the input field and enable the "Root access" toggle.
If you want, you can also set other custom things to the Google Assistant button for the other 2 states.
For the quicksettings menu tap on "Quick settings tiles" in the main menu of Xposed Edge and enable the first tile and open the settings for that tile. Set the action, again, to a shell command, input /bin/torch and enable Root Access. You can set the label to "Torch" and choose the Torch icon found in "Built-in icons". As i already said, the toggle will always be turned on for some reason. It just executes a shell command after all.
Good luck
Amazing, thank you everyone.
However, please let me insist that this may damage your phone if you put values too high... trust me. I accidentally put a brightness of 350 instead of 150 while trying the script in a terminal, and a few seconds were enough for the plastic underneath the glass to melt... Thankfully, it is still transparent so I can still use my flashlight, but no doubt it could have done a lot more damage if I let it run for longer. So please, use this with a lot of care (and double check what you write).
That's why in lots of countries, rooting voids your (hardware) warranty, you can do physical damage to your device so again, please be careful. Thankfully, this plastic bit and even the LED underneath are easily replaceable (the plastic bit is separated from the rear glass and the LED is on a separate ribbon cable). However, there don't seem to be a lot of OEM replacement parts for this phone yet.
Seems like a lot of work for little return and added threat of damage to an expensive phone. I agree that the brightness is dimmer than other phones I have had...but I did a test in a completely dark room and it actually is bright enough to find "whatever" you may be looking for. So I can live with it. Maybe Sony will do something to improve it a little?

Sony could definitely improve it. But it seems like they had a history for compareably dim Flashlights.
I edited my explanation post to adapt lower brightness, because 150 as value starts to slightly discolor my diffusor, so I suspect we should run it lower.

太棒了,谢谢大家。
但是,请让我坚持,如果您将值设置为高,这可能会损坏您的。......我相信在终端中尝试手机时,我不小心将恢复设置为 350 而不是 150 ,几秒钟就可以让玻璃下面的恢复正常……幸好还是可以的,所以我可以使用我的手电筒,但有疑问,如果我能运行更长时间,它会请小心使用它(并仔细检查你写的内容)。
这就是为什么在国家/地区,root 导致您的许多(硬件)故障,您可能会再次对您的设备造成物理损坏,请小心。值得庆幸的是,塑料钻头甚至下面的 LED 都可以轻松更换(塑料钻头与后玻璃分离,LED 还位于单独的带状电缆上)。

You can't say I didn't warn you!
Indeed flashlight in mark 3 and older xperias is very bad.
I compared it to an iPhone and it's like day and night. Many aspects xperia brand is suffering like front camera, flashlight, no 21:9 pics, missing 4k 60fps recording in main app with stabilization, poor screen brightness, insufficient battery capacity, no any cooling system (especially at this price there should be vapor chamber or any other advanced cooling and not throttling cpu as a solution...), Not to mention regular software apps like Album, email and others :/

I got it fixed through sony aftermarket and has ip68,fixed the screen for me by the way
On android 12 after rebooting the function stops working.
So I got to the area of the phone you guys specified, but as of today, the default values are WAY different that what yall found. Let me take a few screen shots
Here is the systems default peramitors. Any idea why they are so different?
Edit- Okay, so extra piece to the puzzle. When torch is off, the brightness file is 0, but when it is on the file is set to 15.
editing the file while the torch is on does nothing.
Edit 2 - Just wanted to note that for those who just want a demonstration of the changes possible, the fallowing app will do just that

this app needs root. Run it as a HTC 10 and it works just fine. However, I would like to recommend NOT going over the half way point. its VERY bright and will probably kill your LED if you do. You have manual control over the brightness. You can add it as a shortcut in the drop down menu of your phone. simply use the standard torch button, and then click the godly torch button to activate whatever preset you gave it.
Edit 3 - setting the brightness in Godly Torch to 50% Intensity sets the brightness to 135. Given that we know damage starts to happen at 150, I set the brightness in Godly to 15% (under the "toggle Intensity" shown in the screen shot), which brings the brightness to a value of 45. Its easily double as bright. I would not recommend going past this point.
I would say by using godly torch as a HTC 10 worked...mind you I double checked the brightness by just hitting the quick toggle and then messing with godly torch. The lower setting is matching just turning on the quick toggle the higher setting is what I'm comfortable with, but idk how long I'm comfortable running it at that brightness.

On android 12 after rebooting the function stops working.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
For those on stock who use the assistant button :
If it stops working after reboot, copy the binary file to somewhere safe on your sd card, then using XPosed edge just add a long press gesture to your assistant button that recopys the file from your sd card, then sets the permissions again (make sure to check run as root)
cp /sdcard/torch /bin/ | chmod +x /bin/torch
