Trickster Mod color-settings, Intensity

Hi forums,
TL;DR: Could turning up the color-settings in TricksterMOD cause burn-ins?
I recently got my GNex and after fixing the SIM-tray making the phone usable again I of course unlocked the bootloader and flashed ROMs and Kernels (atm CM10.2 latest nightly + Franco kernel) and I use TricksterMOD to make some specific settings (like turning FSync off) and I also found Settings for screen colors, now what I did is just turn those sliders up all the way and set all other options (like Contrast and Gamma) to 0 (as seen on the attatchment), now I have an extremely vibrant and colorful display without this annoying blue-tone everywhere, even whites look more natural now but I've seen some AMOLED-Phones (specifically 2 GS2s from friends) that have things like the Status Bar or the keyboard burned in into the Display and now I worry that that could maybe happen to my Phone as well because of the settings.
I'd like to know your experience and if you think that that's possible, if so I'll turn them down even though I really really love this display now, it's literally the best display I've ever owned (and I have two IPS Monitors in front of me right now)
I'm using a completely black theme over most of the Phone (black status bar of course, black keyboard, black menu-elements, dark backgrounds, saves Battery and looks insanely awesome on this display) that should prevent burn in's from for example the keyboard since black pixels are not lit, but I want to know if it's more likely if the display is brighter due to the settings.
Sry for this long post but you've got the short version at the top if you don't want to read everything
Thanks for your time and help in advance!
Greetings from Germany.

on rooted (or custom rom) xl, is there a mod to disable sRGB?

hey all. currently own a OG pixel xl. i really like it but i would like to upgrade to get the all screen pixel 2 xl but i HATE the muted colors with sRGB screen setting.
i wanted to know if someone made a mod or custom rom that disables everything defaulting to sRGB and just force WCG? or make the screen produce colors like every other smart phone screen on the market?
lmk thanks

Well, if you do upgrade to the P2XL, Google did introduce Boosted and Saturated settings to the color profiles which will help make the screen look more like a Samsung. That I think would eliminate the need of a mod. In any event, I'm not aware of such a mod.

Turn down brightness in camera app and dark theme

I just bought my Zenfone 5z a few days ago and I'm satisfied with its performance. The software can use more clean-up but this version of ZenUI is a lot better than the previous ones. But one thing tho, the system UI is primarily white, especially the nav bar. It looks really ugly especially that I always have my apps on night mode whenever possible. And of course, seeing the pull-down menu in dark mode will always be a delight. It used to be possible with themes but this new ZenUI only changes the icons and wallpapers and leaves out the quick settings.
Second is that the camera app is always on full brightness. I can always use the modded GCam but the native camera app always yields bettee photo quality based on my test, the only thing that annoys me is that it's so bright when I use it. Is it possible to have a modded version of the native cam app where we can turn off down the brightness?
Thank you for taking your time in reading this. More suggestions and comments is welcome since there aren't a lot of discussions about this phone yet.

Which google camera are you using?

[Q] Color temperature

What's your lcd display?
1) dial *#*#64663#*#*
2) Version Information
3) Check under "TP:"
Mine is EBBG
Also, is there a way to adjust color temperature? I wish we had the color temperature settings for warm or cool displays

EBBG, too.
I like having on the night light mode all the time. I don't like the blue color all phones have.

Same here and I also think it's a little bit cold. But having night mode on all the time? Way too warm for me....

I had this also and my colors here is somehow slightly warm compared to my xperia z lcd

You can set the intensity. It's better for your eyes (or that's what they say). And you get used to it in a few hours But it's personal preference.

How to set intensity?

Just go to settings/display/night light. There is a slider there.
I also placed a shortcut in the quick tiles so I can turn it off if I want to and get to the slider.

If you get root and Kernel Adiutor, (maybe necessary to flash new kernel), you can set through kernel native RGB, saturation options, etc. It's called KCAL color calibration. There are posts at xda with even different profiles (think like 'how to turn lcd into amoled'). I don't have the A2, but since reviews complain about blue tint and lack of display calibration as in MIUI I thought this could be the solution for AO.

I also complain from this ****, I compred color temperature to my friend's phone (with miui)
And I found a huge difference in color temperature!!

Question Notification light

So I don't know if it's on here or not but I came from a Samsung phone and so anytime a notification will go off it would flash a green light does the OnePlus 9 pro have that same feature or some type of light that could flash when a notification is on the device? Perhaps maybe there's some type of a magisk module that can utilize the camera ring around it to flash when there's a notification if it helps I am on a custom ROM. So I'm not sure if stock has it. Thanks.

On recent OnePlus phones, you'll find a function called Horizon Light (it basically lights the screen's borders when a notification is received), that is used for similar purposes, but there isn't a notification LED in the hardware.
I'm not sure if it is a function that is still in your custom ROM, but it is a stock ROM function.

Yeh, only aware of built-in horizon light , but it doesn't flash long enough to catch it....

Geez, how I miss the LED notification lights that older phones had.
Especially the ones that were multi-color so you could assign a different color for different notification types.

Technically, it wouldn't be impossible to recreate it with an app dedicated to modify the always on display features.
As AMOLED screens are basically tiny LEDs side by side, we could imagine a way to light or pulse specific ones to remplace the "missing" one. But it would be a trade-off, as those selected LEDs would be functioning and aging surely more quickly than the others.

There are a few apps out there that will use the AOD to create the appearance of a notification light or even continually flash the Horizon light bars and other custom lighting options however all 3 I've tried were glitchy and obviously drained the battery since it's using AOD to accomplish the notification light. Maybe if you're already used to AOD battery drain it wouldn't be so noticeable but I don't use AOD normally so the difference was very noticeable to me.

Yes, it's also a thing to consider, but I don't think the memory and power usage for only a black screen and a color dot would be that energy consuming. Did you notice a change that big when you gave a try to those apps?

look for notifybuddy on the playstore. works fine on my OP9Pro.

I didn't realize how much i relied on the notification light until it was gone. The AOD fits my needs, tho. Posted settings on another thread awhile back: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/horizon-light.4371367/#post-86085187
I may give notifybuddy a try, too

Would recommend this app. I've been using it on my oneplus devices last couple of year. There are a lot customizations too.
LED Blinker Notifications

i REALLY missed my notification LED (the last phone I had that had it was my old blackberry priv) then I got a smart watch and I don't care so much anymore
