ROG Phone 3 weird brightness bug

- Firmware Version: 17.0823.2007.47
- Rooted or not: Not rooted
This is issue is similar to the auto brightness issue.
If I set the brightness to minimum and lock the screen, the brightness increase by a small amount ok pressing power button.
And THEN if I lock it again and wait for 3- 4 seconds and if I press power button again the brightness is very low ( lower than normally possible to reach with the brightness bar ) and there is a red tint.
And if move the brightness further lower the screen nearly turns off ( this actually feels like the minimum brightness of the phone ).

Hi @skailash2001,
Please share a video with your display brightness settings shown at first few seconds to understand the same better.
Sure. Here it is.
1. Brightness Bug.
Sidenote: When the brightness reduces there is a heavy red tint . And when I adjust the slider to decrease it further it is not that visible but the brightness lowers further.
2. Fingerprint scanner bug.
When in lock screen just a tap on the fingerprint scanner icon gives the display a tint. Here's the video for this issue.
Please take a look @ARP_ASUS @Anders@Anders_ASUS ( sorry for wrongly tagging Anders, I cannot untag, seems like zentalk has a bug lol ).
THANK YOU
@skailash2001 Thanks for your detailed response. I have forwarded your videos to our devs.
Glad I could help myself and others. Also Thank You for quickly responding and escalating the issue.
@skailash2001 @Gustav_ASUS I also have exactly same issue.
Please look into this issue of screen white hue on screen....it's plaguing every rogphone3 in my group.
It's very bad to watch Netflix , Amazon prime or even Youtube a sthe contrast dips and brightness increases.
Service center says we can't do anything about it and they are sorry....I paid 50 grand for this phone and they say sorry.
I have attached screenshot of phone as it's not possible to show on video due to refresh rate toggle disables on screen recorde.
Compared it to samsung S9+ on same youtube HDR video.
There is no contrast available as blacks look like grey. And over all the image has a haze on top.
I hope my problems will be heard.
This is googles doing. Watch some content in firefox with true blacks.
Another weird brightness bug.
1. If I come back to home screen after watching YouTube videos, the brightness seems to increase by a fair amount.
2. Also the brightness increases automatically while watching videos. Especially in the Google News app, while scrolling if there is a video autoplaying, the brightness seems to increase.
@Anders_ASUS @Gustav_ASUS @CH_ASUS @ARP_ASUS please look into this.
THANK YOU.
Update is out do it and it's solved
Yes, the older ones I mentioned are solved.
Now I have mentioned new ones.
Could these videos be HDR videos because with HDR, you're no longer in control of the brightness? It's decided by the system.
Can adaptive brightness could also behave strange due to custom batery settings too
No @Anders_ASUS . This looks different. But similar to what you said. But the brightness difference is like 5-10 percentage.
Please help ASUS. Lend us your deaf ears for a moment. Suffering from same issue
ROG Phone 3 has been surrounded by a bunch of issues that are spoiling the user experience. It was reported earlier that users are facing the black crush and broken display rate issues.
