Question IncreasesScreen brightness

[thegios]

Is there a way to make the screen brighter under direct sunlight?
It's totally unreadable...

You can get some extra brightness with a root app called High Brightness Mode by Flar2

I'm not tooting the phone

Well if you're using some custom you can ask your maintainer to implement PixelParts which nukes googles Hbmsvmanager and adds fine grain control over HBM.

Then No, you can't

There is a throttling mod on the forum that worked wonders for me, but it's a magisk mod with a edit on a system file, so unless you could replace the system file, you would need root for this to work. I just thought I'd mention, since the difference is night and day, and that's one of the exact issues I was having without it.

Are you using Auto-brightness or manual? Auto-brightness gives you a max brightness in the sun compared to the manual max brightness.

U mean manual is better?

Googles HbmSVManager will automatically enable HBM (High brightness mode), when automatic brightness is enabled and the light sensor reaches a specific lux threshold.

I'm sorry, I should have explained it a little better. Auto-brightness will give you a higher max brightness. You will want to use Auto-brightness on a sunny day.

The link is not accessible anymore. Has PixelParts become closed source now?

It is now accessible, but was returning 404 error for a few days earlier. I also read some posts on Telegram regarding it being made private.

Using auto brightness could make your phone get extra brightness when under the sun.
