Auto dimming on note 4?

[ugakidd7]

So I noticed over the past few days that when I'm online or using an online app my screen will dim and when I goto home screen it quits. I have a fully charged battery and brightness stays 100% no power saving modes on. Anyone had this problem or can help? Thanks

My best guess would maybe be the adaptive screen feature being on? it adjusts the screen tone according to what is on the screen at the time. This may not be it, just throwing darts!

Good suggestion. Unfortunately, it's not the answer.

I'm having same issue, and I'm infuriated! I keep my battery fully charged and never use the Power Saver mode. I keep my light display set to 100%. But it dims to 50% light or less (even though my setting hasn't changed). Today, it's been dimming and coming back to full light *every few seconds*! This is dangerous as it could cause a seizure or cause me to kill someone. Other times, it stays dim for half an hour or more. NO REASON.
I took it off Adaptive Display mode, and it didn't help. I've tried every display mode. I'm glad to hear it's not just my phone, because 'they' always try to claim "user error". NOT! But I'm not happy anyone has to put up with this unacceptable b.s. from a top of the line, EXPENSIVE phone. I've had my Note 4 just 6 weeks, and this has been going on from the beginning. I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO...
PLEASE, let me know if you hear anything at all on this issue - even if it's just more complaints. I will be documenting everything... while I decide my course of action. Much thanks!

Not to be insulting but you checked you brightness and made sure "auto" was checked off right

I called att and they are sending me a replacement. This will make my 3rd note 4 since it was released. Best bet is to call your carrier and tell them. There's a 1 year warranty with att they send you a phone and you mail yours back to them. If you contact Samsung they want you to send it in for a few weeks while they "repair" it and you are phone less till they send it back. Best bet is to contact your carrier
