Light Sensor values on Non-Sony ROM



Hi,
I noticed that on non sony-based firmwares (actually i'm on Euphoria OS, tried also CM) the light sensor acts weird.
Looks like that enables the screen to get very (in this case, Ultra) bright and this causes me some problems.

I'm not sure, but a sony-based rom "tames" the light sensor in order to non make the brighness go wild (ultra dim, or ultra bright) even with the auto-brightness set to near zero value.

As a workaround, i'm using "Velis Auto Brightness" with a custom over-conservative profile.

Is this a AOSP/CM only issues? can be ROM be tuned for better light handling (eg: by halving the output value of teh sensor) or is the sensor just too sensitive?
