[Q] Washed Out Screen? [Jellybean] - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III

So I installed a stock rooted Jellybean ROM & upgraded from ICS. I did not erase any of my settings/apps/etc. I simply updated using ODIN on my computer.
Jellybean is running fine, however I have noticed that the colors are washed out on the lock & home screens. I searched around and found only 1 user experiencing this issue & someone's solution was to disable the ripple effect. Doing that does solve the washed out color on the lock screen, but I shouldn't have to disable this when it worked on ICS. Disabling ripple didn't fix the faded home screen color.
Anyone having this problem and/or know a real solution other than to disable an animation effect?

I just updated and am noticing the same thing. Have you found a solution?

Gradient/Color Banding

After I flashed AOKP M5 I noticed gradient banding on my screen. Instead of a smooth gradient it now has distinct lines throughout it. Its prevalent in the settings and other ICS-like menus. Anyone know what causes this and how to fix it?

I don't think a rom can cause banding. Both of my Nexuses have shown banding on stock and on AOKP.

Lockscreen pictures very washed out when using the 'Ripple' unlock...

I'm sure most have noticed this. Any picture I choose for the lockscreen when using the 'Ripple' unlock effect is kind of blurry and really washed out. I'm assuming that it's because of the ripple effect overlay but it's a HUGE bummer for me. It really makes the lockscreen look dull. But I am so enamored with the ripple unlock.
Has anyone possibly found a way to remedy this? I have ended up using WidgetLocker in place of the stock lockscren because of this. While I like WidgetLocker, I'd like to use the TW lockscreen and get the icons and missed message alerts.
I know this probably seems so nitpicky but it never hurts to ask just in case someone has a workaround...
Thanks in advance...
When using a TW based ROM, I always use a lock screen wallpaper with lighter colors. The overlay isn't that noticeable this way. I'm pretty sure there isn't a way to get rid of it unless you disable the ripple effect.

[REQUEST] Old Ripple Lock screen

Hi, i was wondering if anyone can provide the "old" ripple effect lockscreen, ever since JB, there's a whitish tint on the left side of the lockscreen, which becomes noticable when using a dark lockscreen wallpaper. There's nothing wrong with my screen, when I unlock it or disable the ripple effect, the tint's gone :/

No tint here.
old ripple lock screen also has tint screen
the tint was on the right lower zone
in jelly bean the tint shifted to left lower zone
believe me
I had tested with both iCS & JB
it is especially significant with black wallpaper

Hello,
I think the following screenshot shows the issue very clear:
Normally, the wallpaIper is fully in black, without any stains. Is it possible to solve this problem?
I don't know
maybe some developer could develop a MOD to fix it
I don't also like that tint
coz I used to use black wallpaper
now I can't use black because of that tint

Just untick ripple
Got the same thing when moved to 4.1...
First time I thought that had a problem. Then, read that disabling ripple effect wouldn't show that stain.
Miss the ripple!

Ripple effect causing loco screen cloudiness

So for starters I'm running Macksrom revived updated to ma7 with the all-in-one.zip and I haven't tweaked or changed anything in weeks but all of a sudden tonight I go to unlock my phone and I notice my lock screen had become cloudy around the edges (see attached), I am using the stock lockscreen with ripple effect and ink effect turned on, when I turn off ripple effect it looks fine again and my home screen is fine too. Has anyone seen this before and have a fix?

This is well known. It's just the way Samsung designed it.
