Issue type

Feature not working as intended

Device

Xiaomi Mi Pad 4 (clover)

crDroid version

crDroid 12

Exact version / Build date

12.10/2026-05-22

Bug description

Autobrightness appears to adjust based on extremes now. For example, when I stand between the tablet and a light source (casting a shadow), the tablet adjusts the brightness to the absolute lowest. Likewise, if I expose it to direct light, it adjusts to maximum brightness.

In previous build (v12.10, 2026-05-12), autobrightness behaved correctly.

Steps to reproduce

  1. Turn on autobrightness
  2. Cast a shadow (aka, stand betwteen tablet and light source)
    OR
  3. Have the tablet be exposed to a light source (doesn't have to be direct)
  4. Pull down status bar

Depending on which step was taken (2 or 3), the tablet will either:
2: lower brightness to absolute minimum
3: increase brightness to absolute maximum
