07-10-2011 06:15 AMHave you tried "extended control" widget? It has several toggles that allow you to change the brightness, WIFI, bluetooth, GPS etc. When picking the brightness toggle pick it and tap it again this opens settings choose custom. I've never found the settings to change.
Good luck.

07-10-2011 07:31 AMFYI: there's also a brightness control app (not a clunky widget that may or may not gel with a particular theme or 'look' to your phone), which can also be added to your dock.
One click to bring it up, and a simple slider to set brightness.

07-12-2011 02:00 PMI notice this same issue, but usually after running certain apps. I believe its these apps that cause the change in screen brightness. At least for me.
What was the name of the app someone pointed to in the screenshot above? -

07-22-2011 02:55 PMBy keeping screen brightness low it helps in increasing battery life. Because due to this phone takes less power for operating. Go to menu and then into settings, and go into display settings and then reduce the brightness.
