First off no it should not burn out your pixels.... go into voodoo control app and scroll down until you see super amoled hardware control or something like that... now just go into each of those menus and tweak to your liking... the link that was posted is good but it ends up very dark if you have auto brightness on... these are my settings...
Red=2157709920
Green=2290649440
Blue=2565373480
Next red=-53 green=-48 blue=-43. Looks amazing... hope this helps

Not exactly sure what you mean by this, but the question has been asked lots of times (just do a search on keyboard backlight) as many people complain about it. No great solution so far though unless you install a custom ROM (I know CM6 allows you to customize all of the backlight levels) or cover up your light sensor to keep it lit...
Alternatively, I think there they might be some apps on the market like Power Manager that keep the backlight on, but I have tried any since I use CM6...
ok thanks, i'm running virtuous but idk if its possible to customize it, ill check it out and search the market otherwise thx!
It would only turn off if there's lots of light. There's no timer.

not talking about a timer, just the sensitivity of the sensor regarding the lighting on keys.... it just goes of to quick imo....

I just noticed that it does slow down the animation.

I made this app for educational purpose
Glad to hear if someone likes it
On my old SGS, everything works great, the animation is smooth just as without SA
Stock browser the same
So far, only ppl with SGS2 and TranformerPad complain about it...
A few days ago I bought SGS2 and I don't see any slowing down
Probably it is related with soft version, I have KH3 (I didn't test on old firmware)

Dont scroll too fast, scroll slowly then you will see the animation is not smooth, check at the end of the scrolling when the scrolling is slowing down until it stops

Good Job mate, Just tested the new version and there is no graphichs glitches.
Unfortunately I don't have Galaxy S2 now but I tested it on HTC Sensation which is suppose to be less performer than the S2 because of HTC Sense and had no problems what so ever with it as before the graphics seems slower and animation is jumpy.

Nice app.
The Galaxy S II has a blue tint and I wanted to adjust the colour temperature to be more accurate. Though whites are now actually white, it looks like there's a thick weird tint, kind of like a beige layer placed on top of the bluish under layer.
I was wondering if providing a negative value options for colours would help?
Cheers and great work on the app.
Seriously cool app

[MOD] Fix screen warm tint

Hello,
I've been really angry about screen of SGS II - especially about its warm color tint. Today I've been playing with MDNIE profiles and finally managed, how to get off that annoying tint.
Attached file modifies MDNIE settings for "Standard" mode in "Settings > Display > Screen mode" options.
To apply this patch, EXTRACT ZIP and replace extracted "mdnie_tune_ui_standard_mode" with one in your "/system/etc" (root needed).
NOTE: This is not an CWM UPDATE.ZIP !!!
Try it and give me your suggestions!
Thanks!
EDIT:
If you want blueish Dynamic mode, just rename attached "mdnie_tune_ui_standard_mode" to "mdnie_tune_ui_dynamic_mode" and overwrite with one in your "/system/etc".
Settings are same but Samsung have "something" else added in Dynamic profile option.
Added comparison pictures - thanks to bala_gamer!
Note: Real look is bit different than on the pictures (the display is not that blue - at least on my screen). Pictures just shows how big amount of change this is.
There are a lot of screen types so you have to test in on your own if will it look acceptable to you
Just tested it and it did made a difference. Isn't the bluish tint a little too much?
I think that its just a matter of manner.
If I compare these settings with my old, perfect, SGS 1's display, it is still too warm...

It's going to be difficult to match the SGS1 because Supercurio implemented his Voodoo Color application. However, I think your fix is pretty good. Still a little off but much better than before. Thanks
Nice find, I quite like the change, looks to be a little further down the blue side of the spectrum on mine than neutral-white.

I do not use Voodoo color at my SGS 1 at all - everything is in default about screen. I think that through these MDNIE settings we can make SGS 2 display colors almost perfect! It just need time to play with...
I think it's a matter of taste. Plus, I think not all SGS2s are calibrated the same way. For me, I like the colors the way they are except for the highlights which I think are on the cold side; need more red and a bit of green.
Anyway, good job. Keep it up.
Could someone show some comparison pictures?
Would be nice to see.

I have access to four another SGS2 (in company where I work) and all of them are grossy warm...I've applied my settings to all of them and they are looking much better.
I've tried to take a photo with and without mod but I have camera with auto white balance so there is no difference. The change is not very significant either...just a little change of color tone - better to try yourself but don't forget to backup your original files

Super! !!! Thanks man!
This is amazing!
Permission to include in future releases of DlevROM2?
Again awesome stuff here! Keep it up, really makes a difference
Thanks a lot !
I have a more bluesh tint by default on my SGS2 as well. So I guess this fix wont do any good to my color profile. I guess it should be more warm ... more red and green probably...
thanks for your work, but can not find a mdnie_tune_ui_standard_mode file in /system/etc.
I´m on cm7. Is it missing there? How can your patch be applied there or is it just not necessary?
Thanks

You don't need to do this....Cyanogen is PERFECT !
I think it is a bit too much blueish, however, the yellowish is still there. By the way, thank you very much for this, I hope you could improve it to be perfect
Nice. Too blueish for my taste though

[Q][USA][GSM]Any way to turn off "dynamic contrast"?

Hello all,
I've been poking and prodding my new USA GSM Galaxy Nexus all day and I noticed something: the screen seems to have a dynamic contrast function, similar to that of new TVs. I would like to turn this function off, although I don't see anything in the stock ROM to do this.
NOTE: I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT "AUTOMATIC BRIGHTNESS".
I want to see if anyone else can reproduce this or if it's just me.
Turn off "Automatic brightness"
Set your phone to 100% brightness.
Hold your Galaxy Nexus in portrait mode.
Go to this page in your browser on your Galaxy Nexus:
http://www.samsung.com/us/
(make sure to request the desktop site and not the mobile site in your browser of choice)
Scroll down to the bottom of the page and zoom into the black section with all the links. Zoom in as far as you can. If you're using Chrome, the words "Who We Are" should go across the length of your screen.
Scroll your screen so the words "Who We Are" is at the top of the screen and no white background is present at the top of the screen. The lettering should be pure white. Remember where they are.
Slowly scroll the page up by swiping your finger down the screen so that you gradually see more of the white background and less of the black background until the black background completely disappears off the bottom of the screen.
Swipe back up so that the words "Who We Are" are in the same vertical position they were in Step 6.
Repeat steps 6-8 multiple times at a faster rate. As you keep scrolling, watch the brightness of the screen and/or the whiteness of the words "Who We Are". When you first start to see white, the white will be white, but when more white starts to take over the screen, the phone switches to a less-intense white. (I'm assuming to save battery)
Is anyone else experiencing this?
download supercurio's voodoo mod sequel, the displayexpert beta in the voodomods forum. there is an option to turn off the dynamic brightness limiter. works perfectly!
This comes up once in a while, and many people say they see this issue. But I just can't see it! The sgs2 has the option to turn this off, but nexus doesn't.
Is this available in the kernel code to view and tweak,or is it closed?

Are you considering adding this into AOSP and letting Google know, or just tweaking/adding to other custom ROMs? Or just curious?

I'm not really a dev in any sense, but would like to see if this function is in the kernel and not hidden. If its not hidden then I'd imagine someone would have added an on/off option by now. So I'm not the person to handle this. My ability is at most compiling my own kernel with a little code change, at most, unfortunately.
Yeah. There is some kind of brightness limiter like plasmas have it too to meet energy star standards. Its a lot less noticeable on a phone screen and probably helps with power management. It can be a bummer on plasma watching hockey or movies like ice age. I would gather there is a way to tweak it. On plasma, no go.
teach a man to fish, you feed him for life. teach a man to fastboot, and you create competency. and less threads on xda.

all plasmas can turn off dynamic whatever. i am referring to what is called auto brightness limiter aka ABL. i know samsung and panasonic utilize it in their plasmas. no way to tweak it. there is something similar with samsung phones with amoled. bright images get toned down because all the white/brightness suck a lot of juice. i don't know if it can be tweaked on phones, but i think it can somehow.

Choose LED Color for messaging and missed calls?

I have noticed for different reminders, our galaxy s3 has a lot more colors included in this LED. Was wondering if there is any app I could use to control these specific colors yet? I've tried blink, sms popup, and LED control and the colors you have to pick from are not matching with what colors the phone flashes. Just didn't know if there was anything out there yet for us to control that
I noticed this too. It's funny once I noticed it was purple lol. But it would be cool to find a app or maybe it come in a ROM or something. But I doubt anything is like that now. Just have to stay patient and let the devs know about it and hope we can see it in the near future.

So if I'm not mistaken this app isn't ready yet for the gs3 right? Last time I used it the colors were off. You would choose red and get white or choose green and get red.

Yes, They are having some issues right now. Maybe the next update it will be fixed. Last time it was updated was July 17th.
Hey guys, good news. I found a free app called light manager. Its in the market/play store. It will let you modify the led color and flash rate. And it actually picks up the correct colors too. Check it out, it was just updated today 07/31/2012.

I am running stock. This has all different colors. It also will produce random white/blue LEDs without any notification in the notification bar.
Another option would be to root, and go with the CM10 preview build (it's very stable at this point, good enough for a daily). You can apply LED colors/blink intervals to just about anything with it. No other apps or hacking required. :good:
Doesn't look like Light Manager or Light Flow works yet.
Could be differences between models

I've tried both as well, I'm on a Telus SIII (I747M) and not having any luck with any of the suggested apps, but I have heard of people getting it to work. So at this point, it could be possible its a difference in the devices and control of them. I'm glad someone is looking into this because I used to have a BlackBerry and I loved the ability to customize the LED completely down to what colour light flashes when a certain contact texts or calls. It was so customizable, this is the first Android device I've had that has an LED, so hopefully we will be able to take control of it! :good:
Works on S III
Works great on my Galaxy SIII (rooted, Sprint version) !
I'll vouch for Light Flow, but its a little buggy. my green light stays on when i have signal (even when turned off)
Light flow just got updated today and fixed the green light always on with a lot of other app fixes.
Lightflow is cool. But all assigned colors do not work... Yet....
