Switching to AOKP for a few days revealed that we can do much more with mDNIe beyond color saturation. the mDNIe settings in AOKP allows you to make the images (video, 2D UI and even 3D gaming) much much more sharper. I believe it used MSAA making the edges sharper and more pronounced. I liked it and saw that since MSAA is a natural ability of our screen, I was wondering where I could manipulate these settings in touchwiz. Touchwiz only gives you control to change color saturation but what about filtering? Is this KERNEL specific?
I've searched all morning for an app that would allow that but I wasn't able to fine one online or in the store so I was wondering if someone knew of one OR if anyone knew where the syntax was in which file, allowing you to manually change the settings.
Thanks

Hey guys, does anyone know if there is an option to change the color temp of the screen? I remember hearing the sgs2 had a feature to change it built-in. The color temp is a little too warm in my opinion. It might be on purpose to conserve battery but I would prefer it to be cooler (the whites are too yellow).
On my SGS2 I had an app called Screen Adjuster. It would let you change RGB settings. That might help, if it works with ICS. Other than that I know some ROMs for the SGS2 had different screen "modes" like Dynamic, Movie, etc.
Did the app work well for you? I'll give it shot man, thx.
On the SGS2 it worked amazingly well. Made the colors less saturated and more realistic. Of course, that's with the SAMOLED+ screen I think. I'm not sure how it will work with the Nexus screen. Different technologies, right? If you search the SGS2 threads for "screen adjuster" you can see some people's recommended settings for the SGS2. Maybe you can use that as a starting point and work from there? Good luck.
Yea I'm not sure how it'll react since the nexus uses a pentile arrangement while the sgs2 uses rgb. I've actually gotten used to it and don't mind it at all now. Haha go figure right. I guess my eyes just needed to adjust from switching from my vibrant with voodoo color which looked noticeably cooler.

Sorry to resurrect a dead thread, but I thought it was worth nothing that I tried the Screen Adjuster app, and while it worked for adjusting the calibration/color temp of my screen, it seemed to make my phone VERY laggy. Does anyone know of another app that will do the same thing but apply the settings permanently in some way without having the run the app in the background? Maybe with root?
Hey all,
In my eternal quest to get my Nexus running right and lag free i've been playing with Roms and Kernels for weeks now, and have settled on AOKP which is brilliant, and the GlaDOS kernel which has some extra options I like.
The thing that's got me stumped is the colour multipliers.
I have tried searching for definitive answers but all the threads mentioning this are confusing for someone as thick as me.
In AOKP it has Color Gamma tuning set at RGB 60 60 60, and Color Multipliers set at RGB 0.46 0.46 0.46. Now I like increasing these as that makes the screen readable in sunlight, but have read some disturbing threads suggesting that by raising them, I am risking damaging or degrading my screen.
This brings me onto GlaDOS kernel. The settings on that are Color Multipliers set at RGB 2.0 2.0 2.0 and are even brighter than the AOKP kernel.
Can anyone explain in simple terms how these settings will affect my screen and whether there is an accepted safe norm to these settings that wont kill my screen in a matter of months.
Appreciate any and all advice, and any tips on how I could maybe set up a higher setting for outdoors and lower for indoors maybe which I could set up on a widget or shortcut?
Cheers,
Biff.
I also have been wondering why there is such a huge variation in the way multipliers/offsets/gammas are set, different kernels and roms use a variety of different values for each setting that I'm slightly confused by these differences, however, I like the way leankernel with lean tweaks sets these values and have gotten used to how it works on that.
Really like this thread, can't wait to see some more in depth explanations on this and the differences

Cheers for the reply
I might have to try Lean Kernel see how that pans out.
Just figured it would be good to get some informed opinions on what and what not to do when it comes to colour and gamma settings to help people get to grips with the settings.
Also figured it would be good to get advice from those in the know to save on people like me buffering up my screen lol
Fingers crossed we get some discussion going
Hey gang,
I could swear I saw a video recently that showed a setting somewhere that allowed the adjustment of the color balance and contrast levels with the reviewer sliding his finger across the screen to change these setting in an interactive way. He changed the balance so much all the icons appeared really dark and contrasty which prompted him to say it looked all 'gothy'.
Anyway, I can't find it anywhere on my UK G3. You guys know what I'm talking about or have I imagined all of this?
you sure it wasn't the xperia Z2?

Hello guys,
I bought a new Wileyfox Swift and I'm really curious what dpi setting setting is the natural/standard one for a 5 " Display , especially for the wileyfox swift. It is said that the display has a natural of 296 ppi. which DPI Setting should I use in Cyanogen OS ? The standard of 320 DPI or a value near the natural ppi of the display? 300 DPI or less? I just want a setting the fit's the standard.
Does this value or setting has impact on other things or only the scale of things on screen?
Again, should the cyanogen os standard value of DPI be set near the standard PPI value of the smartphone display`?
thanks in advance for all helpful answers.
That is a neat little option.
Usually it affects the size of items which can be displayed. Depending on the apps you use, you'll find that their appearance and subtle part of functionality on the UX side will change a bit. Some layouts are available only for certain DPI settings. Play around with it and choose your favourite. With lower DPI you can get a bit more screen estate for content- text, icons, etc.
The difference between 300 vs 320 DPI is mostly unnoticeable. As you are looking for the natural look, you can leave it as either of the two. You can try with lower values as well. It is possible to have some problems here and there if you use DPI that is largely different than on the device (something like 240).

Thank you very much I guess I should consider a mental doctor because I'm switching from 300 to 320 and back several times a day lol. Some applications looking better with 300 but 320 looks more clear?!?
Anyway, appreciate you took your time to answer and I guess I'll keep the 300..... Or?.... Wow... Hard decision lol.
Take a look in this thread:

I haven't tried this Xposed module to change the DPI on per-app basis. If you are on CyanogenMod instead of CyanogenOS, it is definitely worth a look.
Best case scenario- you won't change the DPI for the entire system and restart each time
Does anyone know how to turn off the s20's adaptive display feature? (I'm not asking about adaptive brightness.) I'm on a US snapdragon, unlocked, regular S20. Thanks!
I am referring to:
"Samsung's adaptive super AMOLED screen optimizes the color range, saturation, and sharpness of the picture depending on what you're watching or doing."
https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS00063051/
The vivid/natural, white balance, and advanced RGB settings mentioned in that link do NOT seem to impact the adaptive display feature. (And in fact, white balance and RGB settings don't seem to do anything at all... If anyone has thoughts about why THAT is, or how to make them actually have an effect, I'm interested.)
I have tried turning off dark mode completely, turning off the video enhancer, and turning off the dark mode on wallpaper, but the problem persists and impacts things like apps and pages in Chrome - basically everything.
If I look at my task switcher, app screens will often look the way I want them to in the preview, but when I click on one, after about a second the display adjusts and changes the image to something brighter, whiter, and less what I want. This is true whether adaptive brightness is on OR off.
I'm trying to use a screen filter to manually set the screen to the settings I need, and it feels like the screen is fighting the filter and countering it, and I think this business with the adaptive display optimizing color and saturation could be the problem. Or if you have other ideas for the source of the problem, I want to hear them.
Any help is appreciated!

they removed the option to close adaptive display since Note 9 starting from s10 it is always on and can't be disabled

It was something like attached picture on Note 9
Ah hah! I think I figured out a solution to my problem (which was that the whites were too blue and bright and vivid as compared to everything else on the screen, no matter what settings I used on Twilight or another screen filtering app). For anyone who comes after me with a similar issue: the native blue light filter doesn't JUST turn on/off - it has an opacity setting which you can find and adjust by clicking on "blue light filter" in your display settings menu, to the left of the on/off toggle switch. Turning it all the way up (to the right) tones down the whites and blues without impacting the rest of the colors on the screen, which for me at least creates a much better color display ratio.
