Washed out colors? - Verizon HTC One (M7)

Anyone else notice that there are overwashed looking colors when they are outside with the phone? At full brightness when I'm inside it looks fine but when I'm outside icons and colors appear like the gamma is up there.

Different colored Gradients?

I've noticed my device has a different colored gradient than on most others I've seen on here.
For example:
In settings and after enabling hw acceleration in certain apps such as the xda app.You can see an obvious difference when compared to the settings menu on this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2g_QhlvmaY&feature=youtube_gdata_player

Well apparently my screen looks like an LCD screen. None of the colors pop and the blues look grey. I've noticed the galaxy nexus phones that have the gorgeous display have the blue gradient and a darker non cyan blue for wifi and cell bars as well as the dialer. If your phone has the grey gradient and the wifi is cyan from stock. I suggest you take a closer look at your display.

I'm not really seeing the issue here. The gradient is supposed to be grey, not blue. The fact however is that the GN screen has problems with accurate color reproduction and the samples that you linked seem to have a lot of blue/purple color noise.

So what you're telling me is I'm one of the lucky few to get a good GN? Because before purchasing this phone I saw many video reviews for it and all of them had that blue gradient...not a gradient like the picture above you but still blue.

grainy screen.not a warrenty problem?

hi all xda members..as some of you might know that some galaxy nexus as purple tint and/or grainy screen.. well mine has a grainy screen at low brightness then at high brightness my screen looks like it gets burn in.. i sent it for repair and they said they cant see the fault or ''we could not replicate the fault mentioned''
are they stupid or??

From what I've gathered from reading around, this is the nature of our displays. However there are some mods out, that may help the grain and purple tint.
I think the thread was in general.

i seen it i think but nothing really about grany screens. its only noticable on white and grey backgrounds.its really annoying...

I think it is normal for pentile. But I can only notice it on lowest brightness and even then I must admit I kinda like it. Looks a bit like paper and the grain seems to be a common trend now (YouTube background for example)

Well, I've checked play store now and you are right - seems to be noticable on all brightness settings. Still though, it is normal for pentile.
But I think mine is really bad? Or am I just over reacting?

Sent from my EPAD using xda premium
Maybe take some pictures of it when you have it so we can see how bad it is.
Gamma are
Color Multipliers
Red .66
Great .66
Blue .89
Color Gamma Tuning:
Red -10
Green -100
Blue -2
DSS gamma set :
Either 1.2 or 1.4
These bring out the colors way better. You will still get the grainy and purple at 0 brightness. But who looks at there phone at that.

Been using that for a while, while I was using ICS CM9 or AOKP. Now I am on Jelly Bean and I have been using Franco kernel. Screen still looking good.

White/Light Theme

I have a question/request. Is there a ROM for the S3 which has a light/white theme of android? I ask because when I am outside in sun light, the screen is hard to see with the black background. I noticed that a white color background is more visible in direct sun light. Thank you.
You could try hyperdrive.

You have to tweak them. Use custom colors and adjust the RGB manually. For white i had to use about 58% red, 100% green and 58% blue then it showed white.

Do you use one of the two high contrast themes? I do use one of them and the device care widget also shows in dark grey.

Then, I think, you should take it as it is. I use a high contrast theme which looks very good, everything is black besides the app icons. Also, the icons do not have the white background which I find very disturbing. On this theme the device care widget looks dark grey, but is viewable. Just to know, you won't be able to use night mode when using a high contrast theme, but you won't need it. Give it a try. You can still change icons if you want. I also checked, even on the stock theme, the device care widget is hard to see.
