[Q] Launching Chrome dims display? - P8lite General

Any idea whats going on? I have auto brightness turned off, but whenever I launch Chrome, the display noticeably dims. I cant find any display setting that would explain this.
Google shows that there is some setting on Galaxy phones that effects this, Settings > display > auto adjust screen tone, but the P8lite does not have this option
Any ideas?

Come on, this is unbelievable, NO ONE has seen this? People have rooted the phone and instslled custom recoveries, but no one sees when you run chrome, the display dims?

I saw this few daya ago.. But still no idea how to solve it, working on it.

screen wakes during call

Sometimes screen wakes during call for a second and it repeating that, but a have the phone close to my ear. (I'm using stock (root) firmware). What do you think it's a problem? (if i test promiximity sensor in hide menu-"promiximity wakelock" for a longer time all is OK)
Try with another rom.

The stock firmware for our phone has some problems with the proximity sensor. Iodak's kernel and p880-sources built ROMs have a fix for it included. Not sure about CM based ones, but I guess they'll work fine too! So yeah, that about anything but stock you could try
Greetings from my Nexus 7 FHD!
If another rom doesn't help, there could be some dust or something else on the sensors way... I had similar problems with HTC Desire HD, which was resolved with some intense sensor cleaning... The rom change is easier to complete though, as the sensor is not in visible place
Problem with sensor is rare, so i think, The same as mcgangsta is easier to change Rom

proximity is kernel related not rom

[Q] "Pimp my Z1" Glove Mode - how does it work?

Hey all!
I've been rooting away lately and came across this app, Pimp My Z1, with built in "glove mode" enabler. However, whatever I do this does not seem to work. The other Pen Mode toggle works perfectly though. I've seen that the Z1 Compact has a toggle in Display Settings but the Z1 doesn't - not even after enabling in the app. On the Compact I noticed some hover functionality that was already hard to reproduce in the time I held the device. But I cannot seem to make any glove functionality work on the Z1! :[
Do you know more about this Glove Mode? Please do share all of your knowledge.
P.S. I had seen an XDA thread for the Xperia SP which supposedly also has Glove Mode, and it would be enabled by unlocking the phone through gloves. But this doesn't work either on the Z1 (believe me, I have tried)
i also got this problems same as you

To be honest, I don't even think Glove Mode works on the Xperia Z1 then.
I've tried everything...
I think it's placebo effect....
Z1 had this mode in settings on 4.2 or 4.3 android, i cant remember, but since 4.4.4 its disabled and deleted from settings. dont know why.

I've never seen it in the Xperia Z1, and internet doesn't know about it either.
You sure you're not confused with the Z1 Compact? Because that phone does have Glove Mode (surprisingly).
P.S. once Glove Mode is activated, you will notice because large white circle surrounding the touches will appear. At least that's how it works on the Z1 Compact, so no placebo effects of thinking the display might be a little bit more sensitive. If it's activated, believe me, you'll notice...

Screen responsiveness issues

Hello everyone.
I am on build number EVA-L09C02B123
My screen is not very responsive in some areas, sometimes in more than a few areas. It needs a firmer press.
Is this an issue address in the 30+ firmwares, or is it my device? anyone else experiencing this?
Thanks
I only registered to confirm this issue on my P9 also!
I was starting to think my finger is failing
Just for correctness EVA-L09C432B136

same here on EVA-L09C150B121
I have a similar problem when I hold my phone in both hands. The palm of my hands are touching the screen because of the small bezel and that causes the touchscreen to be unresponsive in other areas. I'm also having the Vodafone version EVA-L09C02B123. Huawei should add some kind of detection like Apple has on the iPad since the Mini. That would fix it.
So it very well could be the firmware version.
I also had a Carphone Warehouse one at 131, and that worked like a charm. I guess we need to wait for Vodafone to roll out an update
I wrote already a mail to huawei regarding some issues, but i did not get an answer yet

it would be curious to see which model colours do which.
I have a white from CPW which was pre-scratched out of the box, with a hairline scratch visible against lamp lights - putting a tempered glass on hides this 100%. Still I wanted to return it, and get a black.
My black had terrible responsiveness issues. My white has none, they're almost not there. I think it could after all have something to do with the front panel's alignment to the digitizer.
It is so amazing that in this day and age we still have to worry about s**t like that (light bleeds, responsiveness, scratches out of the box)
I have this problem to and problem when change local memory to card sd. My phone freeze

L09 with 136 here (Titanium grey) and luckily I have no issues.
Good to know mate. I am starting to think this is a problem very similar to the Note 4 where in some units the glass panel was misaligned which required a firmer press on the back button.
I will try another dark from. Vodafone UK. They are on 123 version but the unit also costs 300 with them which is a steal
did anybody try to activate glove mode in settings? may be the display become more responsive
Good idea. I will try that.
I have some kind of theory.
When i turn display brightness up between 60-100% and start playing cpu intense games the following happens:
(Auto Brightness turned off)
1. Phone starts warming up significantly from the upside and continues to get warm until the bottom.
2. Display brightness suddenly starts changing (Thermal throttling!?)
3. Responsiveness decreases
4. Phone gets really really warm
(Auto Brightness turned off - between 30-50%)
1. Phone does not warm up so much. Still getting warm but okay.
2. Display brightness does not change anymore
3. Responsiveness much better with nearly no failures
I have the feeling that in B135 the phone was not getting as hot as in B136
Sometimes when i open phone and try answer to whatsapp, screen is very responsiveness.. And im using google keyboard.. Anyone got problem like this?
Having the same problem playing games. EVA L19 136. I'm sure it's a software bug. Waiting for an update...

How did you installed 136 on EVA-L19? 130 seems to be the latest version
It was an update that came automatically when I updated the phone. I live in Romania.
I'm also having screen issues but it seems to be the opposite of what everyone is describing :
- Unwanted touches even though I'm not touching the screen. Can happen several times in a row in the same area
- Bad scroll detection : the device often recognizes the first touch of a scroll as a selection, or interprets a selection while scrolling
- Bad long-touch detection
I'm going to send the device back to Amazon but I'm fearing this is not an hardware issue and knowing Huawei is really sloppy when it comes to sorting issues, I'm thinking it might be best not to get a new P9.
PS: I'm on build B136.
What do you think ?
I think it's a software issue with B136. What model do you have? Does your problem happen at certain times or all the time?
I have P9 EVA-L09 bought in France.
It happens almost all the time but to a certain degree : sometimes it's very subtle, but sometimes the device goes crazy and starts taping on its own, opening links I didn't select, etc. Quite a nightmare.
Have you tried to Factory reset it? Or manually install some other verion of the official rom?

How to make screen light up when sms delivers

As it is written above. I have a problem and don't know how to solve it. When sms arrives screen light stays off even if it is checked in notifications sound and screen light up. Anyone have same problem and how to solve it?
Try this:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.nullgrad.glimpse
Allows you to set which apps turn your screen on.
It's overkill a little, but has worked well for me.
Thanks works great. But isn't fullish that we need spec app for that option?....
I written to support they do not no how to solve it

Android does not have this option, so you get it either via app or via manufacturer skin. As Nokia has stock Android, there's no such option. Android never had it.

manual brightness

Is that true that when setting brightness to a manual value it always changes up to an automatic value ?
Yes, that true but I think it hapennes when you enable eye protection function almost every time. But I'm not sure.

Can someone confirm that ?
Yes i can confirm this, faceunlock is active.
If you have it set to automatic off then it works just like any other android phone and stays at whatever you have set it too... It just depends on what settings you have on as some may need the automatic brightness to work

Brightness resets to automatic upon phone restart. If you prefer manual, you'll need to untick the automatic box when you restart the phone.
That's true - I just checked it, but is it the only one situation, when it switch to auto mode?

My auto brightness is unchecked but randomly is activated without any intervention on my part. Annoying!
