Default Brightness Tweak?

Is there a tweak to allow me to have a brightness of les than 10%?

Sometimes the lowest just isn't low enough. Brightness at 1% on a HP TouchPad is a great hack, Does well at 3am in bed unlike what feels like a blinding screen.

What RoM you using now? If its a Sense RoM I think your stuck with default setting. With MIUI RoM you can set all the brightness settings yourself.
Device HTC ONE X Gray
Rooted
RoM TripNDroid CM 10.1 JellyBean
Recovery Clockworkmod Touch Recovery 5.8.4.0
Kernel Stock ViperX

Screen filter from the market is what I use.

You will get better results with an amoled screen.

Using CM7

Quick Settings says its at 1%...

Screen Filter I guess kinda works, It'd more like lights out mode on flash videos
