I've noticed that the lockscreen adds a dark tint on the wallpaper.
Is there anyway to remove that dark tint (regedit perhaps)? Really ruins some colorful pictures and makes already dark pictures even darker =/
Thanks!
not sure what you mean - the screen dims after a little while but i havent noticed this problem on my omnia 7 - what device are you using?

It's not the screen that is the problem, it's the wallpaper that is slightly tinted.
The information text is clear white but the wallpaper I have in the background is somewhat darker than the original (compared if I open it up in the pictures hub).
Try opening a picture and see the brightness, and then set is as lockscreen wallpaper and look at it again on your lockscreen. It is slightly darker.

It's slightly darker on the lock screen, but it doesn't bother me. It's so little...
I know its probably not what you want to hear but how about install one of the many photo editing programs? For example Thumba Photo Editor lets you adjust brightness and contrast
Yeah, I guess I'll have to edit the pictures beforehand.
Would be easier if there was a registrytweak or something instead
Thanks for your responses

Hey!
I just have a little issue here. When im choosing a custom photo or image as background, it tends to get lower color than original. The gradiends gets really ugly. This dosent apply for HTC original walls thou.
I tried with both JPG and PNGs (8/16 bits).
The screen is able to show 16mil colors so my guess that the croptool is converting the image somehow.
Does anyone know another app that is able to set wallpaper wihtout the built in cropper?
A few examples:

Hi everyone
I noticed that some pictures - mostly 960x800 wallpapers with plain colors transition look good on a computer but in Desire they look like in a "less colours mode" (like not 16bit but 256colours)
it is the same in the gallery - they are smooth when you browse them, but after there is just one on the screen - it sharpens and smooth color transition is lost and they look bad set as wallpaper
i cannot attache a pic but the color transition is not smooth but graduate..
some other pic like face photos, bigger resolution looks OK
is it just a pic/wallpaper issue? is there way to convert those pic to look better?
Might be the file format of the pic. Depends on the depth of the pic as well. If normal images are fine then it'll be the wallpapers.
Just made some tests... it's not a pic
I installed "quic pic" - another photobrowser from android market - and it shows pics very good
- contrarywise I would say - first- pic is loaded quickly - then the quality gets better - looks 24 bit
but when I click - set as a wallpaper - it goes back to showing crappy image, like 8 bit depth...
choosing to set wallpaper directly by the "quic pic" - sets the wallpaper right -like 24 bit, great colours transition...
Hi is there any way to change the colors around the UI? I really, really, really, hate the cyan and blue gray colors found around the UI. It's too distracting and does not fit into the overall aesthetics of the the phone.
Accessability

I don't know of any way to select the colors hopefully this will come with new roms however you can affect the Hew of them in the accessibility options, this is limiting as it affects the entire screen but a slight move in the right direction could do it.
Accessibility > color adjustment> move around the screen image.
If you find one that works please let me know
Thanks

Because most people do not find the blinding white background pleasing...also black backgrounds save battery using less display power.

Most apps do not display the wallpaper, so things like inverted Hangouts, Gmail, Google Now, Twitter, Facebook are popular sought after apps.
Is there a way to get the settings menu, quick settings, notification panel pure black and not grey? Seems whichever wallpaper I set (even solid black) it's not adhering to it...
Might have to wait until substratum can be used if not!
The irony of their colour scheme was not lost on me. I think they did this for a bit of retro feel so it looks like an LCD panel.
Come on Google, I know your designers are probably just 12 years old, but surely there are still some older people there that remember the light bleed issues of LCD displays of old, and that OLED was sold on being able to produce real blacks.
I just want pure black
Oh well, root will soon be amongst us I'm sure
I'm trying to find a wallpaper that is as black as possible, so the system themes it accordingly. But also one that doesn't have a tint to everything... Any recommendations? I just want notification panel etc to be black if possible but also for buttons ect to be a plain colour without a warm'ish tint to them...especially text, like I want that to be white whereas seems the system is adding a tint?
