Hello
I replaced my Galaxy note 3 screen, everything is working good. But it seems I lost the brightness. It is on a high brightness and does not go down, even when I put auto. I need to lower the brightness, because of saving batteri and for a better reading to my eyes.
Do you have any solution? Is it a hardware or software issue?
:confused: :confused: :confused:

Was the replacement an original Samsung? If not, many third party replacements don't support auto brightness.

You could look for apps in the play store that might help.

Did you try a factory reset of the phone?

I don't know how much battery power the app will use. When ever I had to replace a screen, I just looked for a phone with broken internal components and a working screen.

Try a factory reset but make sure you have a backup of your data.

Have you tried contacting the seller and asking for assistance?

I can't think of anything else to suggest.

Are you sure you not covered the light sensor. Maybee forgotten to remove the protection foil. The light sensor is beside the front camera. Is the front canera working?

Have the same issue with samsung s3, Everything works fine except the brightness won't budge, the light sensor is working fine. I checked with sensors multitool and it responds so there is no question of sensor being blocked or damaged.
I agree that with 3rd Party replacement Screen, Samsung just doesn't want to work, I would have gone for another device for the price I paid for the replacement display but I didn't thought of it at that time. anyways, Samsung sells crap, I have seen so many users having issues with their displays, even the newer ones. I have stopped investing in Samsung anymore, lost trust, feels like been betrayed with the one that I fell in love.
