Ambient Light Sensor does not work with ICS

[vijayrao1988_]

I upgraded to ICS recently within a couple of days of it being availble for my SI number.

I have realized lately that the display on my phone does not adapt to the ambient ligt conditions. I tried playing with the settings for the display brightness and it seems that the ambient light sensor is not causing any changes to the display backlight.

Can anyone else confirm if this issue is occuring on their hand-sets too? Should I try a reinstall of ICS or repairing the software through PC Companion?

same for me...neither in GB or ICS now...the sensor works fine (checked in service tests)  changing value according to the light, but then doesn't change the brightness of the screen...as vijayrao1988` said: "As soon as I enable the use of the sensor, the brightness adjusts immediately according to the ambient light condition. But then, it remains static thereafter. I mean, only the initial setting is acquired everytime the sensor is enabled, after that the sensor fails to have effect on the brightness"

@Johan, what is the status of this issue? Has this been dropped or is your team still running investigations on the same - 2 months is long enough a time!
