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...

edge lighting

When I set the lighting it doesn't move around the screen like it's supposed to, It's just a steady light. I tried different settings and it's the same on basic, multi(only the top left corner lights and it's steady also), and glow. The glitter one moves but yeah, not into that lol. I contacted Samsung and they said to do a soft reset and if that don't work to go into safe mode and check it that way. I did both and neither worked. I have the boost mobile variant, sm-g960u. Any help would be appreciated.

Go back to the edge settings and set width to wide, set transparency to low, and choose your effect, I'm using multi colour. You can change the colour for specific apps as well like blue for Facebook and green for whatsapp etc.
Click colour and then app colour.
Should look sweet now

I've tried that but still a no go. They're still steady and on multi it's only the corner that lights up
EDIT : I figured it out. I turned off the animator duration scale in developer options. Duh

All fixed now?

Changed my display size and Google now on the left most screen is in dark mode

I enabled dark mode and it annoyed me how Google now was still all white. I was pleased to see it go dark for some odd reason when I changed my display size. I'm not mad!

What size, I've tried them all but still white screen...(Jesus that sounds like a horrible movie)

Lmao make sure you have nuanced dark selected in themes first. In display size it was default then I changed it to small and Google now feed went dark. Now it's always dark no matter display size.

Whats Nuanced Dark?
What I do is that I have a Tasker profile to set dark mode to On when oem_black_mode becomes 1.
This Dark Mode toggle in Tasker sets Google's dark mode flag to on.

Settings - Customization - Present Theme - Nuanced Dark.
Nice ?? I bought Tasker years ago, but I could never get the hang of it. Like whatever you just said just went WHOOSH over my head

Can you change font style ( no size), to Roboto bold

color change from lock screen to unlocked phone

Hello, I'm facing a sort of problem. When I look at the locked screen it has a calibration, but when I drop down the quick toggle or I unlock the screen it turns a little bit more yellowish. I don't think it's hardware related but could someone give me an explanation?

I think it's because of the FP sensor. To improve the recognition maybe.

Or it is a bug like the dark theme not being dark in some apps, Chrome, YouTube, Shelf. Top of the screen is less dark, like a little bit green. Not a hardware issue though, settings and built in apps ark dark (Dialler, Messages). I think it is something with the theme settings.

It's all normal. The lockscreen has this colder/blueish tone, like a filter, which goes away after unlocking. Nothing to worry about, not a bug or a defect. Just the way it's designed to work.

I don't think so.
With every app that request fingerprint authentication the color of the screen changes.
It must be something related to improve fingerprint accuracy

I am not talking about the screen with FP scanner active. Just check the dark themed Chrome, Shelf, YT. Especially on the dimmed screen. Upper part is a little greenish. Cannot make a screenshot as it looks ok on it. It has to be sth with theme, as on some apps (dialler, messages, settings) the whole screen is dark (black).
Something like this:

On picture we could clearly see green tint defect

Yep, and it looks like software issue to me.
Screen pics
As you can see, app is a little green, but quick settings are black when dragged down. Screen is fine, I believe.

Thats because green tint is only visible on certain brightness levels at grey background. No problem on black background

The issue related to the lock screen is present any time the through screen fingerprint camera activates. You will also notice it if you have face unlock active in low light and the screen lights up to assist the front camera in recognizing you. Color spectrum is super important to cameras when they are recognizing things on our skin.

That apps are not black, are grey. "Dark mode" does not mean "black".
In other way, all amoled panels have (or can have) this kind of behaviours at very low bright level and certain colours (especially grey).
Particularly, I do not see that effect in mine or I just cannot see it.
If you think that is a defect or problem, why not open a repair request to OnePlus?

Is it possible to use Edge Lighting with screen totally off???

Before ONE UI 3.0 was possible to use Edge Lighting with the screen totally off. Now each time edge lights the screen tries to wake up. Why??
This is annoying and battery consuming.
Another problem is that now is not possible to use Edge Lighting in different colours for different apps. For example, I would like to use green for Whatsapp, red for Gmai, blue for Telegram and so.

It's still possible. It's just harder to find the setting. In general setting do a serach for "edge" and you will find it. There you will find the setting for both app-controlled colors and "screen-off"

Ok, thanks. I got it. At least my screen doesn't wake up each time a notifications arrives and only the Edge lights.
On the contrary I don't know if it is possible to use different colours for different apps. When I look inside Colours in Edge settings and I touch on "colours for app" nothing happens.

Strange... this is how it looks for me and colors per app works. However, I can't find any setting what color to use... it sets itself (by icon?)

Exactly, this is what I mean. Although I touch over the white icon "colour for apps" nothing happens.
Maybe you're right and the colour for the Edge selects itself in function of the colour of its app icon.
