minimum Brightness way too high (FP2)

  • /e/ version: 0.11-p-2020082870302-dev-FP2
  • Device model(s): Fairphone 2

Summary

The minimum screen brightness is way too high. It is so high that you can still easily see everything on the screen at daylight.

The problem

Steps to reproduce

  • install /e/ on FP2
  • slide brightness slider to the very left

What is the current behavior?

  • screen stays quite bright (enough to comfortably read at daylight)
  • happens both with adaptive brightness on or off

What is the expected correct behavior?

  • the screen should become uncomfortably dark to see stuff at daylight (at least with adaptive brightness off)
  • ... and correspondingly "comfortably non-blinding" in a room with no lights at night

Technical informations

... not needed(? let me know)

Possible fixes

As far as I remember, the FP Open OS had the same issue initially and they fixed it.
