I am currently using twa_priv's SGT7 jelly bean Rom, which has been phenomenal so far. On my galaxy nexus it is possible to adjust the display color and gamma settings. Is this possible on the kindle fire?

I've done a good bit of looking but I still haven't been able to find anything that will work on the Kindle. All of the apps that are able to so appear to be device specific. Does anyone know if it might be possible, even if the parameters must be set manually?

Just bumping to see if anyone knows...
One last bump. I won't bump this any more as I am quite sure it is against the rules. If anyone out there knows of some way to enable color control on the Kindle Fire I'm sure many people would appreciate it as much as I would!

I believe there is a render effect setting (well it's on CM7 so probably it's on CM10) which can render everything viewable in horribly washed out color schemes. It seems like more of a novelty option than anything else.

Yes, I remember that. I don't think I've seen it on CM10.

Only solution is don't use them. You would think that the Gnex would be able to handle live wallpapers with no problems. Guess we'll have to wait for quad cores to run them smoothly.
The only wallpaper that I like is wave because it is beautiful and is very very smooth.. I recommend trying it.. It doesn't use much battery either..

How does one OC the gpu?

Its gotta be some bug that Google hasn't fixed. These same wallpapers run OK on lesser phones, so its likely something software related.

Lesser phones at much lower resolution.
Do all of the live wallpapers lag for you? The only ones that lag on my phone are Bubbles and Microbes.
The only ones that lag are those not yet optimized.
Phase beam is awesome. I take it that OP is not stating that the device lags because of LWP.
It's definately a software issue.

Ok,i understand! However,even in my gnex the only live wallpaper that doesn't lag is phase beam. Thanks to everyone,if you have news let me know 'cause me too think that is an issue related to software
I sent a report to Google:
1-set the live wallpapers that lags
2-go to applications->running and select the live wallpaper that you're using
3-select report and write a description that can help developers to fix this issue.
I hope that as much people as possible will do this,maybe google will listen to us!

I guess, but does the note lag? Different gpu sure. But why does phase beam work smooth as can be, but the nexus amoeba one not? Are they that different in resource requirements where one works smooth and the other not? Both seem in the same ballpark to me. Something has to be going on...
To reduce lag in many wallpapers, just stop them from scrolling.
Simple.

I heard that turning on forced GPU rendering can get rid of the lag but turning that option on usually is more trouble than it's worth. It's something Google should have fixed a long time ago and it's baffling that they haven't.

I was seeing lag on my galaxy nexus and turned off force gpu. It no longer lags and the apps that were choppy are now fine.
I am running stock ICS and made just a few tweaks when i first got the device due to the 5 tweaks to make on ICS article. Thought sonething was wrong but read that force gpu might be cause.

Renderscript is already gpu accelerated, so forcing it is just doing what it already does.
The only one that works 100% smooth is phase beam,the others 1000% lag !
I found another one from a different thread. Its like a black hole or something. Like the old galaxy one but with a big ball of light in the middle. The apk is named galaxy4 and someone modified it but I don't know who so I cannot give credit. Let me know if you guys find any others.

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.

So I use Trinity kernel because the color fix it offers is PERFECT.
I would actually like to use a completely custom rom and kernel but include the color fix?
How would I go about doing this? I know there is a app out there from SuperCurio but it's not a permanent fix. Looking to have a permanent fix ONLY for the color. Thanks.
Flash a rom then flash a kernel..unless I'm misunderstanding something I'm on aokp jellybean preview and trinity kernel.

So you want to customize your color profile but use a different kernel than Trinity?
Not possible. Needs the necessary files associated in the kernel.

Then what files are you talking about?
There is a fairly crude app in the play store called "Screen Adjuster" that you can take a look at. You can adjust colors, but you have to use about the first 5% of the sliders or it's complete overkill. Allows to start with boot. I wouldn't actually recommend it, but it's the only thing I know of that does what you want.
Does anybody know if such a MOD exists? I've searched XDA and the internet, but haven't found one. I know several ROMs have the option to unlink (AOKP, CM, etc) so it's possible to fix this in the source code of Android. I could flash a custom ROM of course, but I'm happy with Jelly Bean stock except for this single issue. I've found dozens of MODs for the power menu, color stuff and all, but surprisingly nothing for unlinking. Looking through Google I'm not the only one who finds the linking annoying.
PS: I also know about the ICS enhanced ringer control app in the play store, but I think having an app running constantly in the background just to unlink volumes with a workaround is rather silly. This should be fixed lower level imho.
Nobody?

Just use CM or AOKP, as you've said, and both have options for that. And both have JB versions, the CM10 kangs from here are really nice.
Yeah it looks that's what I'll do.

Has anyone messed with their DPI settings on Cm10.1 or one of the other AOSP ROMs?
What have you tried and what were the results?
I already know the stock OS isn't very DPI friendly, but haven't messed with 10.1 yet.
If I don't get any responses I'll try a few myself and post in this thread.
Expect to be thanked for participating

That was some tumble weed. I don't feel the need to change my DPI, but might have a quick play.
EDIT: Tried 140 on Hash codes 4.2.2. Everything was slightly smaller, but I had issues with Flip board not showing articles. I'm sure you are on Power points ROM, so you should be OK.
Warning: I'm not sure if changing the DPI on the standard Kindle ROM killed it, so only try that if you are prepared to recover everything.

Yeah, I definitely wouldn't try it on stock. Thanks for the warning though.
And as you astutely noticed, I AM running PowerPoint's ROM on my kf2.

I've now tried quite a few different dpi settings with no major issues.
Have tried 160 (standard setting)
Tried 240- gigantic
Tried a few others but eventually went back to 160 since it seems to be the "sweet spot".

I'm going to guess stock dpi. I strongly doubt the launcher will cooperate.
But since i have sgt7 and/or cm10.1, i won't be going back to stock...
