F70%
by F####:

Its so good

H70%
by H####:

This worked perfectly for me on CM 11. I recently switched to stock Lollipop though and night mode doesn't work at all.

Q70%
by Q####:

I feel the need to drop from two stars to one star because this plugin has many bugs that the developer seems unable or unwilling to fix for some time. Lux works better without the plugin.

Q70%
by Q####:

Awesome, I thought I need Franco to use this, but it's compatible with Cyanogenmod 11 kernel too.

C70%
by C####:

Please fix it.

Q70%
by Q####:

Left in beta while there are still issues.

O70%
by O####:

Not having the brightness problems other people are having. On latest CM nightly. Night mode and brightness are so much better with this installed. Excellent.

R70%
by R####:

As soon as I enable this plugin it stops night mode from working and seems to stop sub zero brightness from working. The app works better without this plugin.

D70%
by D####:

Flashes to 100% all the time. Super annoying especially when on night mode.

X70%
by X####:

Not working with lollipop yet

C70%
by C####:

As others have said, the screen always flashes 100% brightness when unlocking and sometimes status that way. Unusable for now. Franco 63.

C70%
by C####:

No love for PA kernel?

C70%
by C####:

Random 100% spikes

P70%
by P####:

I love Lux and it was my first purchase when I got my Nexus 5 I was so upset that Lux did not work very well for me.

C70%
by C####:

Seems to cause random spikes to 100%. Usually at wake and at low light levels. Disabled for now.

C70%
by C####:

When I use this plugin night mode is stuck on all day and night so everything is orange.

C70%
by C####:

Randomly switches brightness on my N5 to 100%. Unusable at the moment. I will stick to just using Lux for now.

K70%
by K####:

Good

Q70%
by Q####:

Astronomer Mode doesn't work on rooted Nexus 5 for some reason. Please advise.

K70%
by K####:

Awesome, solves issue I had with nav bar being different color/brightness.

K70%
by K####:

need stock support

H70%
by H####:

I am running stock rooted 4.4.2 and tries this though I am not on a required kernal. I like the temperature change offered. The plug-in basically breaks sub zero on my phone. It won't go below -30 and I like very low like -70 in the dark. It would be great if the app was more sensitive at low light to better automatically adjust backlight. Thank you for your efforts!

R70%
by R####:

Thanks for this. But unfortunately it flashes to 100% brightness every time I wake the device, just for a split second. Latest Franco kernel.

R70%
by R####:

Phone randomly switches to 100% brightness shortly before the screen turns off. Will randomly wake at 100% and remain there until I shift lux up or down a step. Running Franco r44. Cannot use this.

R70%
by R####:

Thanks for making this. However, as some others have said, when the plugin is enabled Lux goes to full brightness until the screen is turned off and back on again. On Faux Kernel.

R70%
by R####:

Brightness randomly jumps all over the place, even without changes in ambient lighting. Night mode does not work when the plug in is active, and if your screen dims because it is getting ready to time out Lux plug in automatically sets that dimmed value as the brightness until phone is locked/unlocked, or the brightness values are manually changed.

R70%
by R####:

Red hue for night time does nothing. At times the subzero brightness settings work, but they randomly stop working. Sometimes the screen flashes to 100% or gets stuck on bright. Good effort!

U70%
by U####:

Works with ElementalX 0.36 kernel (uses Franco's backlight dimmer)

A70%
by A####:

Thanks for making this plug in, it works great as stated with Franco kernel!

R70%
by R####:

A toast message "low memory false" keeps popping up...needs fixing 4 stars for the quick reply. Will test

O70%
by O####:

After phone dims, if the screen is touched, then brightness gets set to max.

R70%
by R####:

Gives you the ability to take screenshots without having to remove the overlay, very helpful!

I70%
by I####:

doesn't return after wake

R70%
by R####:

Kicks out the backlight while in Google maps after a few seconds. Kind of annoying while driving. Nexus 5 32gb Rooted stock ROM with Franco Kernel r40
