The rom Havoc for Redmi K20 Pro is very nice, with good options. Bugs: the camera closes, the keyboard closes, the fingerprint fails a lot, when the screen turns on it always enters with the maximum brightness no matter what brightness it has. It does not have two touches to wake up the screen, I love the Live display menu for its temperature and to handle the colors, brightness, saturation, tone. Thank you very much for your work, it is excellent.

For ROM feedback, respond directly to the topic where you obtained the ROM, to make it easier for the developer to see your comment, get help, or provide logs.

Based on what you said, it sounds like a terrible rom for day to day use.. I hope it is still in alpha or beta stage.

Hey guys I have a quick question. I was watching a youtube video in my room last night in complete darkness on the lowest brightness setting and I noticed the brightness would change slightly at random. I also noticed it on the skyrim live wallpaper and also while scrolling thru the marketplace. It appeared that when there were more white pixels on the screen then the screen would get slightly brighter. This doesnt happen in netflix or movies that i put on there so I'm hoping this is a software bug happening in google apps. Autobrightness is not on and i tried all the power modes with the same response. Anyone else notice this or also able to replicate this? Thanks!
hey dude!
I have the same issue! I think it is on purpouse. Some kind a way to save power? Here is my thread about this. Try my country and please give me some feedback. Most of users dont notice this. Maybe because their eyes are not so sensitive?
Oh and also if you switch to power saving mode the brightness change will much more significant than on the other two modes
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1419583
Really no one of you have this issue?
Sounds like a possible LCD screen flickering problem. It's a problem a lot of LCD display mobile devices have. My HTC Sensation has it.
Here's how to test it: at night, turn off all the lights in your home. Basically, your test area needs to be as dark as possible. Set your Prime to a set brightness, preferably as low as it can go. Open up something that has a uniform color and general brightness throughout, XDA app works perfectly. Go near a wall and point the display at the wall. Start scrolling back and forth through the app.
If your device has screen flickering, you should notice that the light on the wall rapidly fluctuates whenever you scroll.
will try. but i wonder if this is relatd to tegra 3 power saving system? i notice the brightness / contrast automaticly change while watching movies, surfing web and gaming despite off turning off autobrightness
so the question is. is my prime damaged or this is normal? dear xda users please how does your prime behaves?
It could also be a "feature" called dynamic contrast which is an idiotic way of making LCDs look like they have more contrast than they really have. But I hope it isn't, I despise it. Dynamic contrast works like that: during bright scene it brightens the screen, and during dark scene it darkens the screen. It's really annoying (and shouldn't be on ever apart from maybe when watching movies).
ok but the question is. how many of you noticed this issue?

I think everyone.
For youtube don't use eco. It's to aggressive and outside of normal videos apps like diceplayer it is useless.
I hope nVidia and Asus will decrease it or give us the option to disable it. Because i like the eco mode for watching flash videos. Much better than Balance and Normal because it's enough and i can save battery.

No, it's not for contrast. It's for saving energy by decrease the screen brightness and increase the color level. And it's always doing it. What we see are the problem of the technique.
Well if it is on purpose then it is very annoying. The only thing that helps a bit is to make screen brighter.
I hope it is not a defect of the screen.
Was looking for a thread with this issue, I'm also experiencing this effect.
It's also noticeable with the stock browser, seems some powersaving technique. Hopefully they will optimise it in ics or make it an option.
this DIDIM technology is constantly at work on our device. I saw a Ram dump txt(which I don't know where it came from) in ly Astro explorer. I looked at it and seen that DIDIM feature is constantly working and adjusting.

You guys know that it's not the power setting right? It's in the screen setting under brightness. If you set it to auto, it will adjust depending on your light source, if it's all white, it will be bright in a dark room and will adjust itself. Turn it off, adjust manually.
And you know, its not. It sets brightness high of overall picture is bright and dark if picture is dark... Much like dynamic contrast. It has nothing to do with auto brighteness. I tried that first.
But can I believe it was fixed in some update, since no one continues this thread after ICS? I cannot update becouse of unknow SN bug. Waiting for Asus to say either send it back or release fix. Thanks.
Happening to me right now with ICS, in performance mode, docked with charger in.
I've been noticing subtle changes in brightness no matter what performance mode I'm in, and I always have auto-brightness off. I normally keep the device in Balanced mode. It's most noticeable if I'm watching videos before bed, as I have the device brightness near minimum, and any change in brightness is pretty clear. At first I thought it was something to do with BS Player, but I've been using Dice as well and see the same effect. It may be a little better on ICS than it was with Honeycomb, but it's hard to tell.
If this is DIDIM, then I guess there's not much I can do about it besides hoping nVidia/Asus tunes the effect to be a little more subtle. :-/
I notice it, however it only affects me with low brightness/auto brightness setting. It does NOT kick in for me over 15/20% brightness combined w/ balanced/normal mode.
That is still on HC, wont get ICS update until two weeks.
Can also be noticed when canging homescreen tabs, slide it over slowly with your finger on the display (keeping it from flipping), once moved more than 30%, the display dims.
I am experiencing this brightness fluctuation, in all power modes, with auto brightness turned on or off.
Very annoying.

Thing that annoys me the most is that it does it with a freakin live wallpaper lol. I guess the snow falling in the skyrim live wallpaper triggers it or something but it is annoying and still exists in ICS. Oh well, maybe they will tone it down soon... here's to hoping.

I'm running the newest ICS update (9.4.2.11) and it's still doing it. The dimming at 30% home screen scrolling still happens too. i'm pretty sure it's DIDIM
You don't want to give your significant other yet another reason to yell at you while you're reading XDA in bed. Rate this thread to express what you think of the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge's display minimum dimness. A higher rating indicates that the display can get extremely dim, ideal for reading in very dark environments.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
I don't have on auto brightness or any power saving features on yet my display brightness seems to have a mind of its own. I can be in a dimly lit room and have to put my brightness slider past the halfway mark just to get decent brightness and the always on display will be so dim it's barely visible. Other times I could be in a well lit store or outside and the display will be very bright even with the slider nearly all the way down. It also seems the always on display may get brighter the longer it's on but it starts out very dim even if my brightness is cranked up. I really don't know what to make of it. Sometimes the display brightness seems way worst then my nexus 6p (not saying 6p has bad brightness just using as a reference cause most reviewers claim the brightness on note5/s7 is a bit brighter.) Other times the quality seems better then my friend's note 5.
Adaptive brightness? Sure sounds like it.
I am disappointed it does not go low enough like all android phones tablets etc. I read books in the Kindle app in bed and my iPhone or I pad can go very low brightness but all the android gadgets I have cannot they are always too bright and annoy her. I thought this could be the one but I guess not

Install LUX Auto brightness app and it should solve your problem, in fact you can set it so dim that you can hardly read it.
I find the always on display to bright. Is there a way to dim it a bit?

I totally agree with that, when you cover the sensor the brightness is way better.
It should be part of the environment, now it's more like "HEY LOOK AT THE TIME" kinda distracting

Yeah haha. The funny thing is that the "night clock" is perfectly dimmed. Wished that there was a setting for the AOD (always on display) to have manual brightness controll. And of course app notifications. Which the edge display can show, but the AOD can not. Strange decision of our Sammy friends.

Exactly, that would be perfect, I tried using AOD at work today and it's so distracting that it's actually worthless now. I also tried the night clock at work and it looks great, it doesn't bother me at all and it's very handy. Hope samsung will update AOD because it can be very useful.
But in my opinion the overall (auto) brightness is too bright, when I dim my screen it automatically brighten the display up to what it thinks it is the right brightness compared to the environment . With my previous phone (LG G2) it changed the auto brightness to the user preference.
You can fix this issue, set brightness 100% and reboot.
Hi guys, I noticed right now that if I switch from an high luminosity environment to a very dark one, automatic brightness remains the same and I have to uncheck and check again the "auto" option on notification bar. Other times, in same conditions, it adapt the brightness after some times instead of immediately. Dose have my phone problems?

This is to prevent the display continue changing brightness, it does change but it has a delay so your screen isn't flickering bright, dark, bright, dark.

This has been fixed with the update that came out this week #yay! It's now changing automatically, not as distracting anymore :highfive:
I noted that when I turn on the screen I a low light environment, it has a fade before the screen completely turn on, like a fade effect. I did some tries and this happen only in low light condition. Is this normal?

Hey, guys! I observed today that something funky was happening with the contrast and colors on my Pocophone screen. The black/dark background in apps like Youtube and XDA, both with dark themes and black or dark grey backgrounds, was getting light grey. Also, the contrast of the text seemed to change.These things happen when the top of the phone enters in direct contact with sunlight. If I cover the sensor with my finger, the screen gets back to normal. It appears to me to be an option to make text and content more visible in direct sunlight. Have you observed the same thing on your phones. What's your opinion? I'm using miui 10 Global Beta. Thanks

I noticed too. Seems a display feature
Neither this is bug nor faulty screen. That's because of Auto Contrast in display setting. Anyways you can change it.
yep, it's a feature... use standard contrast
Happens even when set to standard contrast. Cant seem to be able to fix it!
Set it to increased contrast, it solved the issue for me

Can you say where is that Incresed contrast option in Poco M2 Pro
So i just got the official update today and i just updated my poco f1 to 10.2.2.0 and here's my short review. Do read this if you wanna consider to update or not.
1. The new slow mo 960fps has flickering issues so its literally impossible to use. Or is it only me?
2. Theres a new option at the top screen "Cleaner - Security scan - Deep clean - Manage apps" in recent apps screen which imo, makes it look less minimalistic and ugly.
3. Battery? So far so good. Havent tested it in pubg yet or full day use yet so i cant give my full opinion yet. I'll update this after this 3 days.
4. Theres a new options in Notification & Status bar in settings>Show icons for incoming notifications. Which basically will show your notification icons on the left status bar then after 2 seconds it goes back to showing the clock which is dumb. Why dont they just give us the options to show notification icons permanently instead of clock.
5. The hide notch option in settings is still gone.
6. Theres a new Night mode in camera, but really, they dont work as well as pixel 3 night mode. When you take a pic using night mode in completely darkness, the pic result will be completely dark, unlike the pixel 3. So dont hope too much on the night mode on miui camera.
Thats all so far my review. Will udpate this thread if i found anything new. Please share your review as well.
Hello,
regarding (1): are you in sunlight or in artificial light?
960 fps is way higher than the power line frequency (50 Hz, 60 if you are in the US) so if you shot in artificial light you are basically getting flicker from your lamp.
In direct sunlight you should have no flickering at all.

Nope. Still no difference.
I also only notice flicker in artificial light. Moreover, the flicker is much less noticeable in the actual video than it is on the screen while recording.

Activity Launcher, despite the name, is not an Android launcher. It is a tool that allows you to launch and create shortcuts for hidden apps/services. It's popular because it allows modifying the "Anti-Flicker Mode" setting available in some ROMs but hidden from the Settings App.
Nova Launcher, as an Android launcher, cannot enable DC dimming. I don't think DC dimming is possible with this phone at the moment.

Thank you very much for the clarification.
It's a shame that there are no solutions to the screen flickering problem for this lovely phone. Interestingly, the Xiaomi Redmi Note 11s uses the same display, but there the flicker is much less and appears below 54% brightness only, while here it is even at 100% brightness, which is terrible for the eyes...
I haven't actually observed a flickering problem. I'm on MIUI 13.0.9 (Android 11) and can't even observe it at low brightnesses. I keep my display refresh rate at 60Hz to improve battery life, I don't know if that makes a difference? It's not a hardware issue with your device is it?
Use a camera on another phone, set it to pro mode, and choose a shutter speed of about 1/500s. Now point the camera at your phone's display and start dimming it. You will see black bars running all over the display. They are not visible to the naked eye, but at the same time your brain indexes them and if you stare for a long time they will give you a headache and damage your eyes...
This is called PWM and is characteristic of AMOLED screens, which is why they put so much strain on the eyes, unlike IPS screens, where the image does not flicker at all, regardless of the brightness of the screen.
btw my phone updated to android 12, is it possible to downgrade it back to android 11 or is there no such function in the menu?
You could probably flash the old firmware through adb, you could open a new thread and see if anyone has done it?
