Default Screen Brightness

Was wondering if anybody has this issue with their phone. I have my brightness setting on 0 and no automatic brightness. When my phone goes to sleep it is at 0 but when I use it again the brightness is back on. I go back to my settings and the notch is all the way to 0. But I move it around and when I adjust it again back down, the actual lighting drops to 0 like its supposed to. This always happens when other awakes. Is that normal? Does it matter what setting it is on if its even a sleep? Also how can I correct this? Its annoying to always bring it back down. Thanks!!

Are you going to settings> display> brightness??? Cuz that's the only way i found it sticks to the brightness you set. I was using quick settings to adjust brightness but after looking and unlocking the phone it would always go to around 40% brightness. Tried a bunch of other apps and same thing would happen

I'm using Jugs 5 and switched back to faux 10u after being on backside for a few days.
Elflip that is what I have to do. When I used an app it would adjust ~40% and I would have to move it back. I wish there was an option with these apps to override that because its annoying. Its also annoying to manually adjust brightness at the top of the screen or even in settings.

Yeah it sucks. Using the power savings widget that comes with the rom also works,

Which widget is that? Do I have to flash it separately?
