Hi.i use latest version (205) but light sensor doesn't do any thing . it has the same brightness in sunny day or in dark room ! you know that TFT screen is very bad in sunny day and it get worst with useless Light sensor that is just a name with no function ! this d**n device is make me old ! when do you want to solve the problems ?

I think it's just you. My ambient light sensor works perfect.
I suggest you to wait, and update to .207 firmware when it arrives to you, if it doesn't help, perhaps a factory reset/software repair will help, and if even that doesn't help, take it to the nearest Sony Center (or wherever you bought it) and they should repair the phone

Well if it does I think it's just for you - most everyone elses is 'borked'. Replace the Sony brightness handler with Vellis, it has a better dynamic range. One report I saw said .207 hadn't fixed it.

Sony Center and repairing software is not efficient ... Xperia SP of my friends and family are like my SP ... its not one device problem

If it's not working for most of you Guys but it works for me and probably a few other people it could be a hardware problem

207 doesn't solve the problem... Not for me...

Yes, it sort of works but the dynamic range is limited at best. There are apps which have better control over the brightness, I just wonder why such a simple function is beyond sony programmers.

Hey...Just a suggestion...

It works too perfect for me.

Use LUX Auto brightness from Playstore.I bet you wont be disappointed.It has many many modes and is fully customisable..Just try it.
