I studied the (German language) Android forum entry and it shuts down the (partially emotional) Locus related discussion once and for all.
It is Samsung's strategy to cope with overheating and their approach, controlled by two hidden switches.
First of all, many thanks to jonny.jlue for your tip.
I made the changes and my S 21 stays bright.
So far so good. But it's not that simple after all. The general question, why LM 3 no and LM 4 yes, is not answered by this.
During my two-hour bike ride yesterday (outside temperature 25 degrees and full sun) I measured the battery temperature with both LM 3 and LM 4. In both cases the temperature was identical between 34.4 degrees in the shade and up to 39 degrees in the sun.
I read in the forums a few weeks ago that Samsung generally darkens from 35 degrees, other manufacturers only from 50 degrees.
So why doesn't LM 3 darken?
But I don't invest any more time in answering this question. I had already bought the Oppo cheaply used and am very satisfied with it and the LM 4.
