in my phone's settings menu there is something called always-on display
I thought always-on display is usually just for oled display
any ideas what's this option for?
my phone is note 9s
software version global 12.0.3
screenshots included
Don't mind.
It is no problem atall and will be fixed in new update.

Hi guys, a question: setting the brightness manual, you noticed by chance if entering some Apps like Facebook, Gmail, Chrome etc the same is lowered and then return to the set value when you leave? Thanks to those who will answer.
That is even with the auto brightness ticked-off and smart screen feature also off, the screen will automatically lowered after few seconds I opened the Facebook app, Chrome app for example.
same problem..
This is a serious problem with the software, but a intented one. Really makes me think about whether I keep this phone or not.
This video adresses the problem at minute 3:20.
Also the flickering of the display is a issue for sensitive users. This is the most flickering oled display I've seen so far. Adressed at minute 2:55
I really hope Huawei adresses and fixes this strange programmed behaviour. But I'm afraid they won't, because the Mate 10 Pro and P20 Pro also have this automatic brightness limiting.

Check whether the light sensor is working. The screen brightness may not adjust properly if the light sensor is covered by other objects.
Please adjust the screen brightness if you think the screen is too bright or too dark. Go to Settings and select Display > Brightness.
Please check whether the AUTO switch in the Brightness level menu is enabled. If the AUTO switch is not enabled, the screen brightness may fail to adjust automatically. You can go to Settings > Display > Brightness level to enable the AUTO switch
Dude, this is so off topic. Has nothing to do with the sensor. It is software.
Check the internet for Huawei brightness dimming, screen dimming and power genius. You will find many topics which adress this problem. It is a problem in many Huawei phones. Mate 9, Mate 10 Pro, P10, P20 pro, they all suffer from this same problem which the Mate 20 Pro also happens to have unfortunately...
Is there a solution for this problem, I also have the same issue on my Mate 20 PRO. Is any chance to EMUI 9.1 solve this problem ?
Removing powergenie through adb solves this problem
What is the adb?

So a few days ago i bought a redmi note 9 pro global (the one with the 64mp camera) and i noticed that the pro colour camera option was missing. I had seen some videos on youtube and they all had that mode but there is nowhere in my phone. Is this an indian version(pro max) exclusive feature or is it the version of the android the global version has that doesn't include it? It is a bit annoying because i've encountered another bug, the one there there is no edit button in the notification quick settings and i thought this could be some kind of bug too...Any ideas??
Hey there, I have 2 realme phones, Realme 5i and Realme 6pro. Both phones have dark mode enabled but main menu, notification bar etc and some other areas are not so dark as compared to other phones. Only Settings screen is fully dark. Some other people have also raised this issue on https://c.realme.com/ but no one was able to help us out. Is there any way to correct this issue?
Hi, apparently the Activity Launcher doesn't work for MIUI 13/ Android 12. At the same time, the phone use PWM and has terrible flickering, has anyone found a working solution to the problem?
Thanks!

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?
Hello, I'm using Miui 13 (Poco x3 Pro with Xiaomi.eu ROM) and i want to disable the Auto brightness, i already disabled the "easy" one but it still changes the screen bright if i tap the camera, despite that, the bright bar doesn't change. Anyone know how to disable it?
I already have that options disabled
There is MIUI 14 out. Dirty flash work by me. Maybe that fix the bug
It isn't fixed because it isn't a bug. It's intencional.
