Hello everybody i bought this fantastic device 3 days ago and it performs very well...
i've already tried many custom Roms, but the one i like is the stock jelly bean rom, but it has some problems...
the Audio is too low, i tried Volume+ on Market but is not compatible with JB, so do you have any suggestions? any zip file to flash?
the other things i don't like is the auto brightness sensor... it keep the light too low. is there some mod to fix this?
i would like also to Flash franco.kernel with 384oc GPU, do you suggest me? is it possible to fix the other two problems only flashing francokernel?
PS: do you know some trick to manage the status led?
..for the status led, I'm using LightFlow, even bought it for 1.7euro (free version doesn't have FB and some others) ... not like i did much research , Lite version did what i wanted it to do, so i bought full. .. is not that much when you pay ~400 for a phone..
ok for lightflow, is fantastic!
but someone know how can I improve the autoBrightness and the volume?? is very important for me!
are there any roms that is capable of doing these two thins?
For auto brightness try lux auto brightness from play store,the best application to control the brightness in automatic mode.
For sound you need a custom kernel,go to development section.

Hello Cristian, I've got my GNex about 4 days and I found the same flaws you described, so I downloaded the Nexus toolkit to unlock the bootloader, root it, and install recovery, once I did that I installed the franco kernel, the kernel updater gives you the option to modify the colors and the brightness, I hate the yellowish white that the screen has by default so I would strongly recommend you to use the settings recommended by franco to tune up the screen and to use a static brightness, my screen looks amazing now. In regards to the audio, the app has an option to improve it however it only applies for the headphones, not for the speaker (at least I couldn't notice any difference). For the LEDs use lightflow pro. Cheers!

I have the exact same problem as you with the yellow whites. What did you change with the colors?
Did you add more blue and remove more red and green?

That's exactly what I did, gamma offset -4 0 5, color multipliers 178 172 205 brightness set almost to maximum, adaptive brightness disabled.

Hello everyone,
I am running stock with Franco kernel.
What settings is everyone using to calibrate their display? I haven't really messed with it, but am intrigued by the possible improvements that could be made.
Thanks,
Blue
Do you have francos app?
Galaxy Nexus AOKP m5 Franco kernel m3
Yes, sure do.

The experts (I mainly speak of supercurio) stresses not to share gamma and color settings. All of our screens + tastes vary so there's no one size fits all settings. Just play with the values until you get it where you like, then go download supercurio's display expert app. It works wonders

Running on 280 and looks bad ass with 6x5 set. But market is broken.

240 and your market will work fine as well.
LCD, LED screen are optimized for a single resolution, unlike CRTs where pixels are created dynamically depending upon fps, MHz etc. Here pixels are fixed, changing the dpi is basically increasing /reducing pixels at software level which gets implemented at hardware level where number of pixels are fixed. thus blur picture.
that sharp and crisp display wont be there if you chance your dpi, you might wanna reduce/increase font size.

What ? i ran on 240,241,280 then had not met any problem with market at all

Yes I understand this. If there were a "tiny" font size that would do. But small is too large.

There are many apps that cannot be downloaded on 280 . one of them is franco's app .

LCD, CRT, MHz, what are you going on about?
OP, try a custom tablet ROM if you want low dpi. Paranoidandroid is popular.

Yep, I forgot it nevertheless 241 have this issue as well though I had followed steps in rom control ? Any idea ? or it was aokp's problem ? Some apps need to be switched to default dpi to update or install, completely inconvenient

Ive searched high and low for a way to adjust colors without having to change the stock kernel
Is there a way to do it? I mostly want to get rid of the grey/purple stuff at low brightness and maybe improve the colors(no that it needs much improvement)
Im running stock JB
Thanks in advance

Purple greys at low brightness are a hardware defect. Adjusting that would make other colors appear very strange.

And no, as far as I know those changes require a kernel that supports it...
If you do change though, the trinity kernel for jb makes the colors look much better

Is it fast/ compared to stock JB kernel? Ive been told that with jb is better to stick to stock kernel for best performance and battery life

Look for the Trickster Mod app in the app section. It allows for tweaking the colours as well if you have a compatible kernel.

After flashing codename android 3.3.1 changing the color settings I.e gamma and multipliers all is good. I recently switched to glados then Franco then popcorn kernel. All of which say they allow color multiplier tuning. But in rom control its faded out.
Anybody know why or how to enable this through the kernel any help would be appreciated

I know with Trinity there are commands that can be issued through terminal, not sure of the one you mentioned, but the easiest way would be through the apps made to tune each specific kernel.
Yeah I figured but Trinity doesn't play nice with my phone and as much as I would love to support the devs I have no money to give yet. But what's the point of the rom control settings to adjust that when they can't. Maybe something in the kernel is stopping the settings from modifying the values?

ROM control probably only works with the default kernel.
Yeah probably wonder why seems to work in cyanogen or is it because they add something to there source to allow that do you know

Not all kernels support the CM type colour controls.
Try Faux or Lean kernel if you want to use the ROM colour controls. If not download and install the free Trickster Mod app and it should allow you to control colour on most kernels.

My galaxy grand has a big screen issue. Its colour saturation has decreased a bit over time and now my colours on the screen do not look vibrant and saturated (Eg. Grass looks faded, sky and water also looks faded ). I have confirmed this problem by testing my phone with two more galaxy grands which I have at my home. I compared same pictures and wallpapers with all the three phones and their colours look a little bit more saturated and vibrant than my phone. The colour difference is small but is noticeable and that bugs me. Is this my phone's problem or does this jappen by using a phone too much over time?? Also I also advise you guys to compare your grands with other grands if you have any to compare your colours. Help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Which rom r u using ...? If u use stock touch wiz ....go to settings display untick..option like outdoor or powersaving.....like that ...., try it if its not work just flash stock rom ...via pc odin.....

Thanks for reply but this problem is there on all roms, cm and also touchwiz. I am right now on carbon but when i was in touchwiz i unticked those options but nothing happened. I also frequently flash stock rom before going to another rom but still nothing...
Try tweaking the colors with an app called Screen Adjuster...If tweaking the saturation doesn't work, then it might be some hardware problem...

I too have the problem but not persistent... it's a hardware problem and gets cleared away when refreshing system UI ( by rebooting )

I know about that hardware problem. It's present in every grand and gets cleared by reboot but my problem is different. The colours have generally become a little bit less saturated than a normal grand's screen. The difference is less but is noticeable when i compare same pictures. Nonetheless, thanks for the reply
Pls post screen shots of ur grand then only we try to help u....if u run stock 4.1.2or 4.2.2 enter these *#0*# on dialer...then check RBG......?
