[HACK] Calibration profile for Colour rendering - Desire General

Hi just was this on nexus forum. Just Check it out.

It is basically a software that manipulates the colour rendering ability of pentile display, i think it would be wonderful if it works for our device as nexus one is similar to desire.

It is an excellent idea and I hope the dev can post here so we can further test for his development and provide feedback. However, currently that app just FCs when you tap 'Enable'. OTA HTC 2.2 with root.

+1 for this app. I wish someone could make this work for the desire.

Working fine here. (CM6 pre rc1 from 23rd of july). Flashed the zip which gave me a better calibrated screen then installed apk -> I can change calibration values as I want. Too bad I don't have a colorimeter.

[Q] GEP zoom bug

Heya Guys,
been enjoying the desire HD for some weeks now, really loving it. has anyone come up with an solution for the GEP zoom bug?
temp solution is; type about:debug, goto settings, select enable GEP zoom.
this works, for the current session, if android calls proces.finished it's forgotten even though it stays checked in the settings.
i found this thread for desire, but it seems to be dedicated to some of the desire builds, or cyoagen mod. [APP-HACK][SENSE] No text reflow on pinch-to-zoom in browser
would love to have this fix for the desire HD without the need of root or S-off.

I have ported it for Desire Z, it might be compatible with HD as well, you can try after a full backup. If not, I can port it to HD when I have time.

OK, I ported it to Desire HD as well, try and let me know. I tried it with a Desire HD build on my HD2, hope it works

Isn't there a fix for multi-touch axis flipping

Now Google maps 5 is out and rotation dosent work, I was wondering about it and remembered that a website had said a member of cyanogen had fixed the axis flipping on the nexus I don't know if this was true, any idea ???

I seem to also remember something about this...?
Jesus, Google says that his beloved N1 doesn't support it and you want a fix. Here+s a fix : sell the Desire and get a phone with the full multitouch capable panel.
A colleague of mine has a Desire with a rooted ROM (a Sense 2 one) and the rotation works.
So yes, there is a fix.
I hope that HTC will officially release a (Sense 2) upgrade for the Desire, and that will contain the fix, I don't feel like rooting.
O rly.
FYI Sense 2 is the version that shipped with Desire. If you mean the newer Sense, that's on the Desire HD, that's Sense 3.
Which ROM is that again ? And please let him install http://www.appbrain.com/app/multitouch-visualizer-2/org.metalev.multitouch.visualizer2 and make a vid of the "fix".

Maybe Google maps thinks the phone supports multitouch as its a dhd rom and activates the option to use rotate. Rotate should still work...but because of the dual touch 'bug' it will get it wrong some of the time.
Yeah, I remember reading about a fix included in the core, but it was disabled. How would I enable it?
Can't we get the apk which is getting installed on the DHD?
I've read about this after some issues with Nova, which I guess is why it isn't supported anyway. The screen itself is not multi-touch and is apparently dubbed "double-touch" and the axis switching is hardware related, however there is a setting buried somewhere in the Android SDK that was designed to only be enabled for a certain device. Enabling it on the Desire, however, was supposed to alleviate some of the issues with axis-switching, although not a total fix. It was mentioned that CM had this setting enabled on their ROMs for Desire, but whether that is still the case I cannot say. This is just from memory, I'll have to do a bit more digging to refresh my memory.
EDIT: Asked around on the CM IRC and that particular 'feature' was indeed pulled, however was reinstated a few days ago, so probably only on the nightlies for the moment.
EDIT 2: Flashed a CM nightly and it doesn't appear to have made matters any better
Yes the multitouch is indeed enabled in maps on dhd roms, but the problem is not fixed. You can easily see, when your cross the axis with your fingers, and it definately still doesn't work well.
Yes, this issue is very irritating when playing games like SliceIt as well.
The touchscreen hardware is only capable of determining the rectanlge containing the 2 touched points.
If the desire screen is capable of detecting two fingers as long as they don't cross on the y and x axis, two finger rotation should be more than possible on google maps just as long as you keep the rotation no larger that 90 degrees between the y and x axis and even then it should only cause a "hickup" in the rotation so although it won't be great, if active, it should be ok for use!
The two touches is not what bothers me it is the axis flipping that's annoying I will try to flash a nightly and will see what happens.

There's a nexus one two finger fix. Don't know of adesire port of it.
In nexus one development section.
Desire is the source of all suffering.
Has anyone found a fix for multitouch on the desire yet?
i found a link(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=767654&page=4) to another post on fixing multitouch on an acer liquid sharing drivers for developers, so can people please take a look and see if something can be done for the desire?

ok - not to be a **** or anything but this begs the question:
Why do you WANT blur on your phone? Everyone i know with a blurred motorola phone struggles to make it blurless and wants to remove that crap as much as possible - it is a serious detriment to performance and battery life.

yea im aware of the many issues, i still have alot of work left with this rom, about landscape mode it should be working just fine even with the keyboard out, also the browser im not sure as i havent fixed wifi so i cant use the internet on the rom. And yes i figured gps was not working again iv got no internet so i have no way of fixing that, i need wifi for that XD. anyways im glad you guys like it.

Because this version of blur is different from the others and better, and well because we on the g2 forums deserve variety, other than the 3 classic roms, sense,cm7 or miui. And no i dont think this rom will drain that much battery or affect performance, our gpu's beats the crap out of the omap that the droids have.
Also found that when calling someone it will restart the phone and it will keep you on the call till the os finishes reloading.

i'm guessing this is based on the Droid X GB leak - the blur is different than the blur on 2.2? My girlfriend was running stock 2.2 on the DX and getitng like 12 hrs of battery life. Then running Liberty 2.1 (blurless 2.2 based) she was getting 24 hours +. I flashed her over to the Liberty GB alphas (has a lot of blur in it) and have yet to see how the batt life is.
What i do know is that if you look @ running services (on the DX Liberty GB) and use an app like autostarts to see the on startup apps - blur has a whole ton of blur stuff that runs in the background from startup on - unrelated to ui changes and widgets.
What i fail to understand is not manufacturer ui (which differentiates) but why it has to be baked in so deep into the OS and kernel that it makes it impossible to remove if - god forbid - you want a more stock experience.
I have a lot of respect for any dev who brings more variety and software choice for our phones and i dont mean to undermine his work. I guess i just get pissed that companies like motorola make it so hard to go stock (particularly mess with that damned bootloader) that they would rather u ruin your device (i soft bricked my gf's droid x once and the only way to get back to stock is a complete SBF flash - a rare turn of events that i've never had the displeasure of running into on an HTC phone).
On a related note to this ROM, i noticed on Liberty GB (but not on Liberty 2.x) you can remove stuff from the notification area because there is a minus button (ie you dont have to clear all notifications or click on the notification itself to clear it - there is a button that enables its removal). Is this part of blur? I'd love to see this ported to AOSP.

[REQUEST]Sony's Whitebalance Port

As we all know, the Nexus 7 screen is very poorly calibrated by Asus, meaning we haven't seen yet its full potential. Since there is no (not yet) color control in kernels available yet, it would be great if some app could improve saturation and white balance. I recently read about Sony's new whitebalance option which enables the user to solve at least some flaws of the display and I thought it would be a great idea to implement it into our Nexus 7. The article can be found here: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/xperia-zls-white-balance-ported/
I know nothing about porting stuff and things like that so I hope someone here could give it a try. It has already been ported to the xperia T and V so
maybe it can be used as a reference to start with: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2193471&page=8
Let me know if you guys see any potential in this!

Sorry to crush your hopes, but it simply won't happen. Sony's whitebalance option is integrated into the settings apk. These devices are so vastly different so it is not feasible to try and port something like this. Also, you'll never see color control in kernels because it is not possible on the device.
That's xperia framework stuff, which is the reason why so many new xperia stuff gets ported to older devices
The framework is there

Just curious, dirty flashed cm-11-20141030-v2L-chagallwifi.zip about half an hour ago over the same download yesterday, but youtube still has problems, should i have done a clean install?
Multi-User Name/Picture Not Showing Up
First of all, thank you very much. This ROM is great. Second, I added a second user and they set up their account, but "new user" still appears on the lock screen and in the notification shade (not their name/picture). This is really minor, but I was just curious if anyone else has experienced this.
I downloaded cm-11-20141102-UNOFFICIAL-chagallwifi.zip a couple of hours ago (before it was deleted / re-uploaded I think) and flashed it on a SM-T800. Most of the functions seem to be working fine: WiFi, Google Play Store, YouTube, Video with VLC (avi, mpg, flv)... Also, when I turn off the tablet and connect the charger, it does NOT go in recovery mode (as reported in #110 and later fixed).
I am still catching up on the thread as I just got my tablet so I might have missed some stuff, but I was under the impression that issues with Camera2 where fixed in the latest build by nvertigo67. However, when I start the camera (v2.0.002), it displays a black screen with only the icons on the right and crashes a couple of seconds later (logcat attached to this post in case it helps).
Thanks for the hard work.
PS: Not that it really matters, but the file cm-11-20141102-UNOFFICIAL-chagallwifi.zip.md5sum linked in the original post contains the correct checksum but an osolete filename (and with the absolute path on Barracuda77777's computer I guess).
Camera is working fine here (2.4.023)
Display
All is looking good except the display seems to be overly saturated and too yellow. It looks like stock Samsung did with the "Movie" mode enabled. Is there somewhere to set the display to what I think Samsung called "Basic"? To me that is what produced natural looking color.
Nearly everything is great here as well, but I noticed a couple video issues today.
1) Video doesn't show up from other participants in a google hangout (just their picture)
2) Dish Anywhere app is just a black screen after logging in
Netflix, HBO Go, Slingplayer, WatchESPN, and YouTube all work great.
Has anyone else run into these issues? Thanks!
Hi i'm a french Guy so excuse me for mistakes.
You've done a great great work.
I use this rom since the beginning and it was wonderful.
I had two questions. First is it possible two had the capacitive mod of screen like on tw. On tw we could choose between classic screen or cinema or super amoled i think ?
My second question is about the battery. Do you think you can improve it, mine is less longer than the stock version, on a 48 hours day i will make a screenshot to show you my battery consumption.
I've also remark that i can't install ebay app, there was a 24 error... i've try to erase play store data but nothing to do same error.....
Thanks for your help.

CM to 805
I have the impression the main reason you are not building CM for the galaxy tab 805 is because you don't have one.
I got one, but I need it for professional reasons in weekdays GMT +1 18:00-21:00.
Also, I don't feel confident to start developing for a tablet I need for professional reasons. maybe for you people it's less of a problem
but I loved CM on my galaxy phone (GT-I9000), so I'd like to help you for the T805.
During other moments, eventually, I could give you SSH access to it (it has a 3G data connection, and as long as you don't start downloading p0rn with it, It's fine to me).
it has been rooted, and has busybox installed, so I'd have to install an SSH server and create a tunnel so you can connect.
Would this give you the necessary information you need to port your T800 CM mod to the T805?
Love the ROM and there's a saturation fix out there...
Love the ROM, but the screen is massively oversaturated by default (reds, in particular, literally hurt my eyes). Luckily, there's an apk out there that fixes this - I use "movie mode" which is the only mode that keeps my retinas attached See:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2675721
It works on my Tab S 10.5", although it's confusingly labelled as "Advanced Settings" *under* Settings -> Display -> Advanced Settings. It would be great if something like this could be added to a future build (and the default set to movie mode - the only mode not requiring sunglasses ).
