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.

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.
So I got a OP3 recently and coming from OPO CM13 had some features that didn't work like I wanted or didn't have options in the stock ROM so I installed sultanxda's wonderful OP3 ROM. What I did not realize was that the camera software is a lot worse than what the stock ROM offers, so I was thinking of going back to that if I can get the following things working in some other way:
Notification light color per app. I used Light Flow for this back in the day, is it still a good choice or is there something better?
Disable the stupid charging lights. I'd rather not have the room light up at night just because my phone is charging.
Change DPI to 440 so I can fit more stuff on screen.
Rearrange on-screen buttons. I like the back button in the center. Not a big priority, just nice to have.
Adjust vibration intensity.

I can hopefully solve some for you:
* Charging light can be disabled if you turn off the led, and use some third party app for the notifications.
* You can swipe back and recents but can replace home button with back button unless u use xposed
* Vibration intensity can be increased by using a custom kernel tuning app like Boeffla app // EX Kernel manager app etc
install xposed framework with gravity box and vibration tuner module

You can flash the Ressurection variant made by Eliminater (BJRR) together with Oxygen Cam....
Cyanogenmod has a feature called LiveDisplay which automatically adjusts LCD color temperature according to time of day. Has anyone gotten this to work on the builds provided by Transi1? I'm in love with this old tablet after installing crdroid and am interested in figuring out how to get live display or color calibration working. I get some flickering and temporary display corruption when i try to adjust color calibration in the same display menu as LiveDisplay.
It Iooks like support may have been added in a pacman ROM a few years back, I wonder if that change was ever incorporated into Transi1's builds

In my experience, do not use this feature on the Kindle 8.9. If I would make a guess, I'd say the tablet doesn't support this feature and on any of the 4 or 5 ROMs I have tried, will either severely pixilate the screen, or throw the tablet into reboot. I was having a lot of trouble figuring out what was causing the issues until I turned the options off. I only figured it out because after the event happened, usually on first boot of the newly installed ROM, a notice would appear in status bar asking if I want to configure LiveDisplay. This option could very well damage the device if enabled.

I have done some experimenting with this feature. The 8.9 doesn't have the ability to adapt the display. So turn that off. Set the live display mode to 'night only'. Surprisingly this works pretty well.

Interesting, I wish it worked for me, all I get is some flickering garbage on screen when i set to 'night only'. Are you also using transi1's latest crdroid build from December? Maybe there's another setting I have that is interfering

Temaseks build. CM 13.
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S7 using XDA Labs
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?
My Pixel is running the stock system. I am using the sRGB mode in the developer options. But I've endured the Narrow gamut for a long time and the screen is a bit red. I've tried to turn off the sRGB mode but the default color mode is just too bright and must not match the right color. So hard for me to get used to it. I tried to edit the color profile with kernel adjuster, but only make it worse.
I don't know whether it is a extensive problem since I've been using it for years. If there has solutions ,welcome to make a commit.
