Display Brightness Problem on Tablet

[bluwtr49]

Got a problem I'm hoping someone can help me with. My wife has a transformer table that she uses to read Kindle book but after the latest a couple of weeks ago, the screen brightness on the Kindle app has been reduced to about 30% or so. Setting the brightness to manual doesn't help and it's causing her problems trying to read. None of the other apps have this problem, only the Kindle. What's odd is that when opened, it goes to max and than drops almost immediately.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am having the exact same problem & came here looking for a resolution.

I don't have my TF300 in front of me, but there's a system setting that is meant to save power by dimming the screen when there isn't anything active going on. It's either under Settings/Display or Settings/ASUS Customized Settings. If it's checked, try unchecking it. Maybe the tablet is somehow thinking the Kindle app is not "active."

When I get home from work and have my TF300 in front of me, I'll let you know exactly where that setting is.

A-ha! Found it by checking the interwebz. Here's the thread: [SOLVED] Screen dimming issue after 4.2.1 update

Go to Settings/ASUS customized setting, and uncheck "Enable smart backlight adjuster." Then see if it still happens.

I am going through the same thing but none of those solutions help. Please help me!

Hey I wanted to know if you would help me. On my Dragon Touch android tablet, when I try to adjust my brightness it doesnt change. It just stays on the highest setting, killing my battery too. I tried a factory reset but it didnt work.

I had the same problem and just solved it after 3 days of trying. All I did was turn Reading Mode (in quick settings) on and off. After that, the brightness sliders started working.

I'm on an Asus TF103CX running 4.4.
