"This device only supports 1 light level." - Phone not supporting dim feature

"This device only supports 1 light level. Dim feature deactivated."

This message is shown when your device does not support dimming your flashlight. You can still use basic flashlight features of the app, but all dim features are hidden.
I can not do anything about this as the limitation is hardware related.

Please let me know in the comments if your device is not supported.
Therefore please include your device info from inside of FlashDim in your comment.
That would help a lot :heart:

Hello if it is helpful I would like to report that one of my devices, the RMX3363 (Realme GT Master Edition), is unfortunately not supported.

Also, congratulations on a beautiful application!

Alright, thanks a lot for the report.
I will add it to excluded devices and prevent download via Google Play Store.

On Android the A52s 5g could change between 5 lightlevels but now that i changed to linigaeOS I get this message. Is this fixable? I couldn't find solutions or simmilar problems on the internet.

@afffe18 Unfortunately (most) custom OSs do not seem to support flashlight dimming feature.
I can not do anything except telling the OS to dim the flashlight.

Maybe consider contacting the developers of Lineage OS.

FlashDim is a great app and has lots of useful features but unfortunately redmi note 10 pro (sweet) is showing supports 1 light level but in cit I have dimmed the led flash ( so there is no hardware limitation ). To access cit dial ##6484##

If the app shows that it doesn't support brightness levels that means that your phone manufacturer didn't build the brightness control into their Android SDK I can access as a developer.
Unfortunately I can not do anything about this.

PS: The cit also seems to be a manufacturer-specific thing, for me the code does not exist.

If this could be helpful, flashlight dimming is not supported on OnePlus 8T KB2003 either.

The correct code to access CIT in redmi note 10 pro is star#star#6484#star#star

Add Poco M5 on the list its not supported

Btw. Even though it's 1 level only other features such as Morse and Sos works absolutely amazing

Blu G33 (lesser known stock Android phone), is not supported. Awesome app though!

IQOO 9 SE (I2019) is not supported. is there a way by which i can make it work? I love the UI of this app

saravanasg avatar Dec 27 '23 13:12 saravanasg

@saravanasg Does the app say you have only one level? And do you have a modded Android installed?

cyb3rko avatar Dec 27 '23 15:12 cyb3rko

"This device only supports 1 light level.

Dim feature deactivated."

No I'm not using any modded version although I'm on A14 beta rn

Okay, then it seems there's no way you can use that feature with your current phone.
I'm sorry

@avik-py Alright, thanks for the report!

LG V60 isn't supported either. Given this was LG's last flagship model before closing their mobile division entirely in 2020 (i.e. they're no longer making smartphones which is a shame), I doubt any LG device supports multiple light levels. Might be better to rule out the whole manufacturer unfortunately.

@Naomitr0n Thank you for the insight.
According to Google Play Console only three LG devices can run FlashDim:

  • LG Wing
  • LG Velvet
  • LG V60 ThinQ

Your request sounds reasonable, I will exclude all these devices.
