If you have Xposed installed, download Minimum Brightness.
You could also try a filter app like Twilight or Bluelight Filter.

Thanks, that worked! But is there another module that brights the screen more than normal?

I very highly doubt it.
Screen filter app from play store
Lux ftw. Lower brightness plus vastly superior automatic brightness in one :good:
Bluelight Filter is good!
Do you have problems with auto brightness in MIUI roms? Your screen brightness gets extremely dark in low light conditions, or the brightness spikes just with a few increase of light?
For low brightness problem, actually you can adjust the minimum autobrightness in slider bar, but sometimes it will reset back to default minimum brightness. For example if you turn off auto brightness in game, when you turn it on again, it won't resume your settings. As a result the screen will get darker than your adjustment.
I created magisk module to fix that. This will increase the minimum brightness in low light, and also reduce the over brightness in medium and high ambient light. The result will be smoother auto brightness step, and be more convenient for your eyes!
There are two modules, one for Miui 10 running Android Pie, and the other ones for Miui 10 running Android Oreo. Dont install wrong module, because there are much more brightness values in Android P than O.
The Oreo version may be not as good as Pie version, because i tested it in Redmi Note 5. My Mi Mix 2s currently running Miui 10 P beta 8.8.16 for Pie version testing. But it should give the same result. Oreo version works in Miui 9 too, but may results different.
So what this module do? It adds framework-res to the /system/media/theme/default. With a magisk module you can do it systemlessly! To install it, just download the module then browse it in Magisk Manager.
If you dont like my setting values, just unzip my module, find framework-res file, unzip it, then edit the theme_values.xml to any values you want under "config_autoBrightnessLcdBacklightValues", then zip all back.
Download links in attachment.
Guide:
V1 for lowest brightness (best battery)
V2 for a bit brighter in low light
V3 for brighter brightness (best for full edge cover tempered glass user)
V4 for more responsive and smoother auto brightness. Values are about similar to v3.
To check if this module works;
Tap the Kernel Version in About Phone 5 times, then you will enter CIT. Go to Light Sensor. Cover your phone light sensor on upper bezel (lower for Mi Mix 2s) with your palm till the light sensor value reach 0. If the backlight is not going under 100/130 (pie) or 7 (oreo), then this module works! My module limits the minimal auto brightness, which the original can reach to 20 which is ridiculously very dark.
This module may work on any MIUI-based rom phones with IPS display, not just Mi Mix 2s.
I also created this module for Mi 9 (amoled display). Visit my thread HERE
Notes:
- Only V4 has responsitivity adjustment. More responsive means it needs less light increments to trigger auto brightness adjustment.
- Editing the values can cause a mess. Add .disable_magisk file in cache partition if your phone cant boot then uninstall the module in manager.
Thanks have flashed this and will see how it goes over a day/night. Initially it's good though.
I find the auto bright annoying sometimes especially given how easy it is to cover the bottom chin sensors on this phone.

Thanks for trying. I hope you get better auto brightness experience after a day..
Yeah the worst part is the light sensor in mix 2s located in bottom left where you could get the screen unseenable while using two/left hands. If its in center, it would be better.
My other mi phone with forehead light sensor often gets annoyingly too dark. I never satisfied with miui default auto brightness and always use this mod since miui 7. Fortunately, this method still works with some adjustment in value.
Ok so it's been a couple of days and this has helped a lot imo at least for indoors (haven't really had any major outdoors time...).
Still gets dark enough when it's really dark, but certainly for normal indoor conditions the default settings you have are much better. Xiaomi settings often got too dark, and you can adjust the slider, but then the slider goes back after while anyway :-\

Just reporting back after a while with this and more miui updates, seems the later beta builds have changed something in the brightness in that I don't know if this mod works any more, or if it needs tweaking to provide the same brightness levels it used to.
I had a really quick play with values as suggested in the op but it's well outside my field of expertise and couldnt get it to do much different

@arddy1
... where to find the default values ?
I'm on Poco F1 and want to compare to the default values and adjust theme_values.xml

Sorry for late reply. This mod still works in miui 8.10.11 global. Here are the screenshots of screen light value in lowest brightness. The lower one is the original. Mine still brighter in lowest light.

Here's the screenshot from framework_res in rom 8.10.11 global
So it only works on miui
Yes since it's a miui issue. Stock android roms don't reset brightness like miui.
Stock roms just set the brightness bar where you want, some will have the ability adjust the total curve even. Miui if you raise brightness it will change itself back after 5 mins or so, so it's needed to change the system default values

To me it happens on the treble roms. Exactly as in miui.. might be a vendor thing idk
Can I use this on Vince running Resurrection Remix 6.2.1 Android Oreo? I am having auto brightness issue in custom ROMs too.

No, its for miui only. Even using it on miui other than i specified in first post may not work
Can you check with the latest miui 8.11.15?
I'm currently using this but sometimes the brightness still jumps from dim to bright
Thanks for this fix!
Can you make flashable zip version via TWRP recovery? I don't use Magisk and I don't want to be rooted

Max auto brightness level can be increased from current value?
From 4095 to 4500
It would better in sunlight

hi any chance to have it without root?

Yes you can. As long as you unlock bootloader and place the framework-res file in system path i mentioned in first post with twrp
I tried your auto brightness fix. And surprisingly it seems to work on the Mi Max 3 with xiaomi.eu 8.12.6v2 as well.

Agreed, on 8.12.13 xiaomi.eu (pie) Mi Max 3 it works very well. Thank you for your efforts OP.
I am coming from OnePlus 5T then Mi 9. Both of which have an incredibly dark minimum brightness which was perfect for night time.
In OnePlus 5T, there was a noticeable step down after which it got incredibly hard to use with any sort of light
In Mi 9, it's literally called Night Mode where if the ambient light is low and your brightness is set to minimum, it became incredibly dark
Mind you, this mode, on both phones, would slightly shift the colours but it's worth it for having a more comfortable night experience.
On Mate 20X, the minimum brightness seems much higher compared to the mentioned phones.
It seemed to me to be higher than an iPhone SE(LCD display)
I wonder if there's a way I could lower Mate 20X's brightness lower than what huawei allows (hopefully without root).
Install night mode for huawei from playstore.
I use an app called Darker. Great for the movie theater.
*EDIT* It appears that EMUI 9.1 added this thing same way as Oxygen OS where if I drag slider all the way left, it goes to a very dark mode

Yeah, EMUI 9.1 brightness slider IMO is a bit unbalanced, but goes super dark.
Does this phone have an always on display on lock screen , like mi 9 lite and other oled xiaomi devices
No. Its a LCD screen, not an AMOLED, so always on display is not possible.
When you turn of MIUI optimization in developers settings, you get two new options in settings, one of them is always on display but this is not working.. I dont why we have it.. but not working

What theme do you have
There is a flashable zip file in the forum somewhere that enables fully functional AOD but i would advice against it because the LED display will eat up your battery. Besides it doesn't even look good on anything other than AMOLED...
Also there are 3rd party apps on play store for AOD,fully functional,but they drain the battery pretty fast....

Hi,
It's strange because my old phone is a LG G6 with a IPS LCD display and can have the AOD ??

AOD does work, issue is it doesn't save power like on an LED panel because the entire LCD needs to be powered up whereas the LED panel can light up specific pixels.

But you mean that LCD display can then have the AOD? Then how to activate on the redmi note 8 pro?

I activated it on one of the GSI ROMs I tested but I don't see it as an option on the stock ROM.

Ok. That means it depends on the ROM and not on the type of display.

The display gets so dim and invisible to the eyes . Is there a way to overclock the brightness when it gets exposed to the sun?
