Joni_78 Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 (edited) Could someone with fairly recent model of their MacBook Pro check how backlight should behave when you do this. Shutdown (not sleep) laptop with AC on so that the brightness is full. When it is shutdown remove AC and then boot and check if the backlight is reduced or is it still full?

+John. Subscriber¹ Posted February 7, 2016 Subscriber¹ Share Posted February 7, 2016 Mine remembers the last setting it was given. What version are you on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's weird that it doesn't detect it on boot but does so if you remove the AC when laptop is on sleep. Most Windows laptops do detect the AC/Battery in both scenarios.

Just to confirm what you meant by it works. Do you mean it remembers the backlight level you had when you shutdown or did you try this? Laptop with AC on so that the brightness is full then shutdown (not sleep) . When it is shutdown remove AC and then boot and check if the backlight is reduced or is it still full?
