Maximum Brightness in Battery Saver Mode

[minibootsmann]

Hi There,

when starting the "battery saver mode", the display of my phone switches to maximum brightness. I found an article https://www.xda-developers.com/customize-battery-saver-mode-android-8-0/ about settings in android 8 and it kind of works, but only when typing the command "settings put global battery_saver_constants "adjust_brightness_disabled=false" " into a shell (locally or via adb). Next time my phone reaches the "battery saver mode" again, the display is switched to maximum brightness again.

Currently, my phone is running latest LineageOS 16 from this source: https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z/development/rom-lineage-os-16-0-t3871409

Is someone else facing this behaviour?

Best regards,
Helmut

It's because the damn led is right next to the light sensor. Light sensor gets blasted with light and thinks it needs to compensate by maxing the display brightness. I've learned to live with it. Alternatively you can disable the auto brightness.
