Auto screen brightness doesn't work in low light again (Android 14 Update)

Hallo,

I tried to ignore the problem for a long time, and keept pushing the screen brightness back down all te time. fond this les of a struggle than switching to manually, its only a struggle in low light.

now it looks like the problem has gotten worse over time on my FP5
now the screen literally burning my eyes. “me hissing like a vampire in sunlight” joking.

Lowest auto brightness setting:

my phone dit switch back to 61% after unlocking and random during use.

looking around in the setting how not really make themselves clear what tey suppose to do.

i did’t noted a difference when on or off.
i dit mark them blue.

Extra dimming, i see the difference, just wondering why ther is a switch for it and not just part of the brightness scale.

DC Dimming, thanks to Ingo

sunlight mode same question as extra dimming.

and so far i did’t notice any difference in the (mis)behaviour of the auto brightness changing the settings.
what’s the default setting for those?

i dit the reset suggested by @k3dAR:

The brightness dit jump back to 0% directly during the klik on the reset button, and dit stay there all the time writing this post.

thank you @k3dAR!

now wondering if it the problem will get back in 2 days like @UPPERCASE and @ManuelF postet. “Touch Wood”.

Dit someone here already get a proper anser from Fairphone support? is it on ther tasks list or they still say the bug was already solved…

Greetings

Tom
