[REQ] Settings > Display > Screen mode extended options - Galaxy S III Themes and Apps

OK, so I'm on stock XXELLA - BTU and since I got my S3 I have always thought the colour on screen is over saturated. I have noticed there is setting option under:
Settings > Display > Screen mode
that gives 4 options to change colour temp/saturation:
Dynamic
Standard (default)
Natural
Movie
But as much as I like the S3, the screen on Standard colour mode is rather saturated, but then changing it to Natural makes it too bland and unsaturated. Is there any mod out there already (I've searched endlessly) or a skilled dev out there who could craft an extended option that sits in between Standard and Natural that would give the S3 a more balanced life like colour to the screen, and perhaps even save a little battery juice by not burning those OLED's as much.

yes, i come from Galaxy Nexus which has same Super AMOLED screen as Galaxy S3, and i know there is dozens kernels supports color setting feature
...if they have same screen , then why oh why, S3 doesn't has such setting ?

So this is something that is likely to be burned into a kernel rather than a flashable mod? i've been trying to resist rooting my S3 as I've only had it a month, but if an S3 kernel can be produced that has a middle ground screen mode i'd have to jump!

Screen Brightness

Hi all, wondering if anyone else was finding the max brightness too low in Apps with a white background, like Gmail, Web etc?
It is much lower than the S2, but I have found out why. On the S2 under the Display settings, there is Auto Brightness of course, but further down there is another one, "Auto Adjust screen power" and the problem is, the Nexus is missing this control.
Anyone know how easy it would be to add it?
If you want pictures tosee what I mean, search for @kevwright on Twitter and see my last few Tweets.
TIA
Kev
Maybe it's done on purpose to save power when the screen is displaying a lot of white colour?
Yes, it absolutely is exactly that. Just that on the S2 and the Note, its up to me if I want a brighter screen and less battery time
Just want same option on Nexus?
Kev
I have both phones, and the issue with the white is in some instances making me prefer looking at my S2. The white on the nexus at times looks grainy and washed out. A bit frustrating really but its not the worst and I am hoping it will change through one way or another. The screen and ics are the only benifits at this moment of having this phone over the many the S2 offers.....

Thank goodness I am not completely alone in this
I am sure it is just a fairly simple fix, and hopefully a dev here will have a go for us.
Linked to this from a similar thread on here but can we stick to just brightness rather than iPhone vs Android

Screen brightness/colour comparison

So I got a Galaxy S lying around and decided to compare their screens. Note 2 screen is not as bright as Galaxy S and the colour is not exactly white:
Both screens are at maximum brightness and I've tried all 4 Tone settings of Note 2 under Display settings.
Do you think that is a defect and a good reason to return the phone?
I did some testing and concluded that it's only the white colour that looks washed out and with a hint of pink. I've tested with Galaxy S, iPhone 4 & Nokia 5800 and Note 2 looks the best in my eyes. What do you think?
100% Brightness. Note 2 Screen Mode = Standard. Auto Adjust screen tone = OFF
-

Auto Brightness:
Auto Brightness + Auto Adjust screen tone = ON:
And one VIDEO.
No I don't, maybe those brightness & color differences are sort of tweaks to reduce battery consumption

I would be happy if anyone can post comparison shots, so I don't feel bad about my phone
You'll see a big improvement in the Note 2 screen if you go to Settings>Display>Auto Adjust Screen Tone and then uncheck the box
Already done that - still not as bright and white as Galaxy S.
Your pics didn't show up earlier, but looking at them now that's a massive difference!
My suggestion would be to take it to a shop and compare with a few others.
I don't have any other Samsung phones to compare mine too but I do think it goes brighter than that, and looks less pink.

Well pal, I don't have good camera atm to take a shot of my screen and my iP 5's. But I can surely say that the 'white' colour in Note II is NOT white, while it is perfectly fine on my iP 5. My previous Samsung was a Galaxy S II and it wasn't white too. But I had a Samsung Wave S8500, which had perfectly fine 'white'. I don't know what's Samsung is doing lately but whatever it is I don't like it.
PS: Just one thing you could do, just tilt the phone screen at 45º angle with your eyes and see, you will see the max white from your Note 2, which isn't the case if you look at it from a 90º angle, like you did on those photos.
This is why I use Screen Adjuster and Blue to +7, I like bluish white lot more than yellowish or pinkish white.

I'm going to a shopping mall tomorrow to compare it with 2-3 other Notes and if I see a difference I'll just get a new one from my operator - they were more than happy to exchange.

Yeah I noticed that too - watching it at an angle makes the white look better. maybe it's just how the screen was designed. Who knows. One thing is sure - in one month I won't notice anything, cause I'll just get used to the colour representation.

[Q] Note 2 Display Quality

I checked out the Note2 again last week this time only for about 15 min when I stopped by Best Buy & immediately felt like this is such a real huge upgrade from my EVO 4G that I must have it soon. Then I started noticing the whites weren't as white as my EVO & it could be brighter (set to max) & even experienced some lag but I did not have time to do a reboot.
I'm somewhat curious to see the Droid DNA, 1080p natural color screen with amazing cameras like the OneX & improved speaker etc but obviously annoyed with battery & sdcard situtation (not a huge fan of all the red styling either but would slap a case on it) so I'll check it out. I think the OneX variants are the best "smartphone" display & camera & at 5" DDNA should be impressive (always thought 5" is a great size but the N2 managed its 5.55" amazingly as well & the stylus puts it in its own class).
The following links seem rather disappointing for the Note2:
http://gizmodo.com/5960289/htc-droid-dna-vs-iphone-5-and-everyone-else-whos-got-the-best-display
http://www.technobuffalo.com/compan...t-8-core-processor-13mp-camera-1080p-display/
So do the non-white whites & brightness of the screen especially around sunlight on the N2 ever bother anyone in real life use?
- Thnx
Funny, if you research the specs of the Galaxy S3 from a year ago, these are the same specs they said about it back then that they are saying about tbe S4 now.

I remember S3 rumors of a 13 MP camera & 1080p screen (but not @ 4.99") & quad core not 8 cores...
So can I assume the non-white whites & N2 brightness especially around sunlight on the N2 doesn't bother you in real life use?
The S4 & Note3 will likely have 1080p screens & hopefully whiter whites & greater brightness so the Note2 will not likely last as long as I'd like as a primary handset anyway..
I love the screen, the whites don't bother me a bit. I also, however, do not walk around with another screen next to mine. The grass may be greener, but my grass flack out rocks!

I did do that the last time at Best Buy & while it did lower the color saturation it did not obviously make the whites any whiter or the screen brighter. I found myself going back to the default standard color mode but I do appreciate having options..
Even compared to my 2 yr old EVO, the whites are not as white & screen seems less bright overall.
I still think the Note 2 is the best overall handset ATM but the display could be brighter with whiter whites & higher res which will likely all be there on the Note 3..:good:

Good to hear, the whites& brightness on this notebook i'm using ATM are not great either & mainly notice the difference when comparing or using another but my next one should be noticeably better..

+1:good:
While I mentioned that I appreciate the Note 2 screen mode options, in tests I seemed to revert to the standard default color mode as changing screen mode only affected color saturation without obviously improving the whites or brightness or sharpness which all seem better on the HTC One X. The default standard color mode seemed to make the screen less dull than Movie mode so I'm curious how many people actually primarily stick with other modes like Movie etc?

Can you explain to me how i can do the adjustment?
Do i need to root the tablet or from the menu? (The only tweak i found from menu is the color profiles : amoled basic, amoled cinema, etc) I have a sony xperia phone and it has an option to adjust the white balance with a slider!
Thanks..

Today I got two 8.4 Tabs, both wifi only versions in my hands and I was impressed, that the white color was different. Sadly, the whites on mine were a little bit more yellowish, warmer, and a little bit dirtier. Is this normal for samoled?

my experiences tell not all screens produce the same color, some are yellowish, while others are slightly blue, which can make white color a bit grey, etc
once i wanted to buy a note2 but i found its so bluish and therefore no deal
so each time I buy a phone, esp amoled, I will check the screen (and other things of coz) before I pay
I currently have 2 Galaxy Tab has 10.5 inch at home and deciding which one to keep. The main difference between the two is that one has a newer build date and love one screen seems to be a little more orange brown tint to the white versus the other tablet seems to be a little more blue yellow intent. Other than that perform identically however I did notice that when I run the CPU temperature app that the one with the yellow blue tinted screen seems to run a few degrees cooler most of the time except when using Chrome when where the other tablet seems to run several degrees cooler but only when JavaScript is activated.
One little trick in addition to adjusting the temperature using the adaptive display were changing from AMOLED basic to Evelyn cinema to make it cooler, is to go into the accessibility settings and then go into divisions section and then go into the area where one can do a test of their color as if they needed adjustments because of their own visual impairment. If you run that test and intentionally miss order the color tiles, and then will activate the option to allow you to adjust a slider which can further give you A white screen that seems to be somewhere in between the really blue display and the really warm AMOLED basic

Old thread i know but i just wanted to thank you for that tip Canadoc. I've been struggling with the excessively warm image from my Tab S for a year now and while putting it into "Cinema" mode fixes the white balance it also destroys the contrast by making all subtle dark detail just disappear. This accessibility method has given me much nicer whites without affecting the contrast other than removing the orange haze. I assume the colours are going to be slightly different now but i can't say i've noticed anything there. I wish the Tab S had the same display options as the Galaxy S5 has where you can choose the cooler white level without hammering the contrast too. Maybe it's something Samsung do in order to protect the lifespan of the blue sub-pixel?
So thanks again
When the tab s 8.4 came out the screen quality was a bit variable, but it's been months since I have have read of anybody having a problem, see if you cab get a replacement.

Mine's the 10.5 and this is the second one i got which was exactly the same as the first one in screen tone.
I always wondered if third-world country`s got B-C grade stock, as the consumer protection can be poor or non-existent, maybe it`s cheaper for the re-seller to buy this lower grade stock with screen color problems ect, I dont know?

UK here and bought from John Lewis. I've heard plenty of issues with screen temp on these ones so it's fairly common. Just using it this morning and thinking it perhaps wasn't quite as white as i'd like it and checked the settings to see if it was still in the proper mode and it was, switched it back to the old one and don't know how i ever lived with that brown tone!
Under different light sources it can take a few minutes for your eyes to adapt to the screen, so white can look a little off while this is happening, as the human eye will normally auto white balance anything you look at.
Does you screen when browsing with a white background at night, but not totally dark still not look perfectly white after a few minutes of looking at the screen.
Everybody seems to see colors slightly differently, and some not so slight, did you see the white/gold blue/black dress debate.

No it never looks like clean white to me unless i tilted it slightly back or forward and then i could see the tone shift to a cooler temp. I do keep the brightness down to under 10% most of the time and that doesn't help the white level either.
I can't say i ever understood the dress image, you can factually measure and define the colour on that one so i don't know why people were confused.
Have you had anybody else check your screen, do they see the same problem, though at 10% brightness the screen is never going to look really white, I always keep mine on Auto -5 , I have the RGB sensor set on Auto i cannot even remember what it`s really called as i have never changed it, but in Auto it is supposed to keep the whites looking white, what is yours set too.

Warm colours
My tab s 8,4 screen has a brownish layer, which makes whites mor brown and the colours less sharp. But when I put pressure on my tab, the "layer" goes away.

Sorry for not getting back to you earlier, car knocked the phone pole down and been without for 12 long days. *sigh*
Anyway, i haven't had anyone else look at mine but i don't need anyone to anyway, it's a very overly warm tone. I've never used the RGB adaptive sensor thingy as it only works in a few apps that i never use anyway.

Do you see a much whiter tone when you choose Cinema mode? If so and you like it then you really should try the method in this thread to keep it without also cranking up the contrast.

is it just me or is the display pretty disappointing

i don't know why i seem to be the only one, i always wanted a note because it's been praised as the best display of all time i finally got a note 10+ and the display disappoints me to no end, first off the colors are dull, my xperia xz1 on super vivid mode has more vibrant colors, second off the brightness it's not amazing if i compare my note 10+ to my huawei mate 10 pro the huawei appears more vibrant and bright, the huawei is running a custom rom, my note 10 + has custom white balance settings with green and red turned down to 0 and it's still too yellow for my taste the screen mode is itensive and yes bluelight filter is off, when i use the note 10+ on it's own i get used too it and i see no issues with the display but then i start up my mate 10 pro and get a much whiter better white and overall brighter image, my note 10+ is set to +10 brightness and high performance mode all auto brightness off and max brightness, white still appears dull colors appear dull, why am i the only one who feels this way?
Was gonna ask if your blue light filter thing was on. The white seers into my brain unless I have the filter on. This seems to be the best display I've ever used. And you're saying other phones are brighter? I haven't found a single phone brighter than this one. Maybe a defective screen?

my tweaks are the following
max performance with brightness 10+ enabled and brightness slider to the highest possible settingm, intensive with the temp slider to the far left as in coldest as it gets then advanced white balance both red and green turned down to 0 blue turned to max meaning the screen should have an extreme blue tint it doesn't, i tried the google books method and blue light is always off when i launch the app so it's not that, i even tried calibrating colors under accessability where you have to rearrange colored balls result are almost identical to what i had with a slight yellow tint to the white so worse than before i turned that off again
i had this issue with the original display and now the replacement one when i havenothing to compare to white looks great colors pop screen looks good white feels slightly dull but it's hard to tell, but then i go back to my xperia xz1 or mate 10 pro and feel a huge difference in white and overall color performance, both displays pop a lot more than the note 10+
might i add i am ultra sensitive to warm displays so what looks great to someone else might look like a yellow mess to me i always increase blue on all displays i have my sony af9 is set to cold with all color enhancers to max i need colors that pop with no yellow tint what so ever, i am not a fan of accurate colors at all
Being the most accurate display of colors doesn't mean it'll be your favorite. Maybe you prefer less accurate (seriously, no snark here). But brightness should be pretty clear cut... No idea why yours wouldn't be as bright.

well i already know i hate accurate colors i want bright vibrant cold colors anything accurate to me looks dull and yellow the surface pro i have which is known for it's accurate calibration almost looked black and white to me until i got it decent by forcing intel control panel and increasing color intensity but the screen was so terrible on it i stopped using it i just couldn't deal with that display so it's been collecting dust ever since, my xperia xz1 is using super vivid mode with blue turned up to 171 the screen becomes complete trash without super vivid mode and it becomes the best display i have ever seen with super vivid mode turned on, i wasn't a huge fan of the display on the xperia 1 either that phone has no super vivid mode and the display was rather dull to me but the brightness and white was miles better than the note 10+ especially when it forced the brightness to max on apps like youtube (it dimmed outside of certain apps which i could not handle so i sent it back but on youtube the brightness was just mindblowing the white was so perfect and clear then it wen't gray as soon as it would dim when i exited the youtube app)

I would say the Mate looks slightly brighter and whiter. Not sure what could be happening. My screen looks great. I have to tone it down quite a bit so the images don't seer into my retinas. Simply turning off the blue light filter makes my eyes hurt.

I believe that the Note interface is more greyish than white. This is why even without the blue filter, if you do not increase backlight alot, it is not quite white.
It can be seen on the Home screen, when you group-up some apps icons in a folder, have a look at the white of the icons and compare it to the white of the folder itself. Not same white. The surrounding white of the folder is grey, not white.
Same goes for the google search on home screen, it is not white compared to the the white of say, the Google Apps icon.
Maybe try another theme if you do not like it ?
