    Hello!

    I wasn't sure how to formulate a short title with my question, so please forgive me if it is too vague and unclear.

    Anyway, here's what I've been wondering for the past 2 months since I got my S3: is there some hidden setting or a piece of software that automatically adjusts the colours' lightness (as in hue-saturation-lightness), not the display brightness, according to ambient light? I've been poking around but have yet to find anything of the sort, yet it is undeniable that the image on the display does change constantly, for instance - the toolbar of Firefox's default theme at times goes almost completely indiscernible, the buttons can hardly be seen, so light are they.

    Has anyone noticed anything similar?
