Over saturated - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there any apps or anything that could help tweak the saturation? everything is ok in general use, but when viewing images they are way too saturated.
I've tried the screen mode. It's either too saturated or too dull. I need something in between.
Thanks

If you're rooted, have you tried STweaks? It offers some control over saturation. I'm using Samsung's Standard display mode with saturation at around -5 or -6. Most test photos match up pretty well with my color calibrated laptop display now.

[REQ] App to tweak Saturation in SGS2

Hello to all!!.. is possible to find an application to tweak the saturation of the SGS2 screen!!?... it has the worst color rendition I saw in a cellular screen, I work in photography I can not even show the pictures in my telephone!!... I like this phone but with the screen of the iphone, miles away better.
Best regards!

Thanks for your feedback, the only problem is the Saturation slider, it does not work on my SGS2 and that slider is the most important
Besides that, that application is not done in good way, the RGB sliders has to modify de levels of color not the levels of brightness as the application do.
Moving all the sliders to the left has to decrease saturation not brightness as it does in a wrong way.
Regards!
I`m disappointed too with the screen colours.If I take a picture of white walls it seems to have a white-green colour.In my old HTC HD2 with HyperDroid-CM7-2.3.7,the white was brilliant white.If I put the same picture that I taked with the HTC in my SGSII,the white looks a lot greener.Is there a fix for that problem?

The colors of SGS2 are pure crap, I dont understand why there are lot of people interested in develop a firmware but they forget this part that is really important, you pay lot of money for a phone that gives you crap colors, totally biased and has no possibility to calibrate them.
Totally agree...My old HD2 with 5MP camera takes a lot better photos than SGSII.The problem is RGB calibration of the screen,not the camera.

Yes, I refer to the color rendition of the screen.
+1 for this... couldn't find any screen tuner/gamma adjuster/saturation adjuster or whatsoever for i9100 that work in ICS...
And my screen is way too blueish... and color is washed....

The gamma should not be modified, if some app is modifying the gamma is doing the wrong thing, it should modify RGB values or saturation remaining the brightness constant.
Hmmm, i thought it was gamma thing also... since I hate the blueish tint... I prefer warmer color.... >,<

What you are looking for is the Kelvin temperature to change, changing the gamma curve will change the behavior of brightness and color and that is not the way.
The controls that should have the telephone are real RGB controls without modifying the brightness, Temperature and Saturation, even better Contrast (but it should not change the colors), with that controls you could calibrate the screen the way best fit to you.
Maybe that's the control that included in CM9...

Contrast on GNexus

I saw many threads discussing color tint on GN screen, but I could not find any on color saturation or screen contrast, hence opening this new thread. I have always noticed that images shown on the phone and that on the computer screen have entirely different levels of saturation. This becomes an issue if you are using the phone to edit images and expect them to show in the same hues on other machines. The colors on nexus seems to way over saturated, thought it might look pleasing on the phone, it throws out the possibility of editing images on the phone. So wanted to know if I could control saturation and contrast of the screen using any app , so I can make an image on the phone similar in saturation to one displayed on any monitor. (not expecting anything similar to Adobe Gamma, but something much simpler)

display color setting

hello
Is it the software or the way in which the three primary colors red, green and blue high or low on the screen.
Android is there a way to adjust the screen colors

I don't think so... Kindle had issues and never got a utility to adjust it.
I checked my colors against my TV which is calibrated. Factory ROM gives a darn good picture, for such a device. Some overly reds but with proper brightness they are less noticeable. I don't know what setting you have the display on, I set mine for movie and leave it there. Dynamic and Standard is not good for Movies and Pictures. Though if you play games Dynamic may help. Standard is basic for reading and browsing.
Hope that helps

Auto Color and Sharpness based on enrivonment luminosity

So, I noticed the screen changes its colors and text sharpness based on the environment clarity. Altough this seems a nice feature for using the phone on sunny days, the effect brings a strange oversharpened effect on the screen text. Not really a big deal, but I don't like it much.
Is there a way we can disable this feature? I've already tried going into "Settings > Display > Contrast & colors" and changing to "Standard", which should keep the contrast constant, but it seems the option isn't really working. I've restarted the phone and it keeps changing the colors and sharpness.
I made a video for you to understand what I'm talking about.

Thats samsung super amoled boosting brightness nits to increase readability,and its normal, it does happen in all super amoled screens including samsung note 8 and etc.
So it cannot be disabled as far as i know its in firmware of display.
But when you are in direct sunlight i think sharpness or color dissortion is not much of a sacrifice to increase readability.
Would it be better if you wouldnt be able to read whats on display ? dont think so.

For a second i thought my display was faulty but then realized its only for better readability. Not that I particularly like this but the sacrifice is worth it. For now haven't seen a toggle for it yet, but I hope xiaomi gives it in the next update.

Are you sure it is a feature of the display itself? Cause the brightness remain constant, what changes are the colors (contrast actually) and the sharpness...
And yea, like I said, it isn't a big of an issue, I just wanted to have control over it, but I can live with it haha.

I had this on my Galaxy S9+ and somewhat annoying under sunlight, though not as noticeable as on Mi 9 SE because of higher resolution and DPI. The only way to deal with it on my S9+ is turn off auto brightness and slide the brightness down to a manageable/readeable level.

Well my auto brightness on the mi 9 se is already turned off, and this keeps happening, so its actually unrelated to the brightness, more like a separate feature.

Have you tried disabling auto-contrast feature? It helped me.

Question App to reduce display color saturation

Hello,
Is there an app to reduce display color saturation of the fold 3 to one's liking ?
Set from vivid to natural, if you have that option in display settings.

I have done that but I would like to fine tune saturation.
I find natural saturation setting a little too agressivily low and vivid way too saturated
Natural is as close as you can get it.

I totally agree that the default is over-saturated and the natural setting is washed out. You can use ADB to get hidden display modes, which may be more to your liking.
I use AMOLED photo.

Interesting.
As I understand it the phone uses the correct ICC profile for what you're viewing.
The human eye is notoriously inaccurate when it comes to display calibration especially gamma correction.
I've tested cam to display throughput on the N10+, it's dead on. I run it in natural setting.
If I need more saturation I use some Provigil

As you infer, colour interpretation is very subjective.
So, to this end, using the ADB or other profiles is perfectly legitimate to tailor to an individual's needs. Irrespective of scientific measurements.

Actually what I'm saying is even the people who's color perception is in the top 10% can't dial in color correction by eye.
The other 90% don't have a chance.
If the device isn't factory calibrated correctly or if the display is defective these additional profiles aren't going to correct the issue.
It's nonetheless a cool hidden setting that may be useful. Unfortunately it's not easy accessible for shifting on the fly. Setting the display to anything other than natural will likely end up being an eye sore.

Hey! Can adb be used to tune digital sharpening of the images ?
