Description Michael Bohlender 2013-01-04 01:00:04 UTC

Steps to reproduce:

1. open Settings

2. set "Brigthness" to about 20% 
-> brightness is set correctly

3. klick  "Time and Date"

4. klick   "Screen"
-> brightness is  set to 100% without any interaction.
expected would be that the brightness stayed at 20% and is only changed when adjusting it again.

reproduce able: every time

device: nexus 7 / mer

I can confirm that on Wetab as well.

Still happens with Integration packages from today

Comment 4 Thomas Pfeiffer 2013-01-26 10:28:01 UTC

Right now brightness does very weird things at least on the WeTab. It keeps changing without me doing anything. Apparently it tries to interpret reading the light sensor (brightness changes when I cover the sensor) but it does so quite erratically.
When I go to the Screen Settings module, the slider always resets to 100%. When try to I change it, it jumps around, sometimes stopping at 100%, sometimes at 0%

Comment 5 Michael Bohlender 2013-04-10 00:18:25 UTC

I think this bug should be marked as resolved as the original bug has been fixed and the "WeTab light sensor bug" probably wont get fixed.

Comment 6 Thomas Pfeiffer 2013-04-10 08:32:11 UTC

Agreed.
