Hi all,

There are a number of apps on the Android App Store that enable you to lower the minimum backlight brightness (or claim to), but I’m looking for de-Googled FOSS options.

Any suggestions? Thanks

    I wonder if programs like redshift offer any guidance or inspiration on how this might be done. I know setting to below 0% would likely involve dimming the image rather than the backlight.

    Or perhaps drivers allow completely switching off the backlight, and one could use software pwm to manually set it lower, although that entails some risk of flickering
