I have a limited number of colors on my Note 4 with Lightflow. Do you suppose that is because I can't root? Not sure why I'd need root for various colors.
Only colors I've been able to see are Blue, Green, Red, Cyan.
You have to pay for more colors
Hmmm...never heard that. I've owned this for quite a long time, and multiple colors worked on my rooted SGS 3.

Hi guys,
In the next version of SpeedMod, I'll be making some changes to the color of the UI. In the JPX source code drivers, there are some new configuration settings which are interesting.
This kernel is based of K12F and should be stable. It is labelled K12G-TEST.
In this thread I will upload 3 different color settings:
Neutral
Warm (more yellow: use this if your screen is too blue)
Cold (more blue: use this if your screen is too yellow)
No color management
The purpose of this thread is to gather feedback from you about which color setting you prefer.
I realize that there are at least 2 types of screens with different colors - one which is more blue, one which is more yellow.
The file with "-warm" is the warm color version.
The file with "-cold" is the cold color version.
The file without "-warm" or "-cold" is the neutral color version.
The file without "-noc" is the version with no color management.
Reserved for future use.
On my friends SGS his whites are more like faint yellowish, on my phone its perfectly white.
So yeah there are panels that are probably poorly calibrated.
Thank you hardcore, i've never had problem with both version (normal and color) of any version of yours. So, normal is better i think
Have you thought about changing text color in CWM from green to blue or green like Amon-Ra recovery?

I'm perfectly fine with color versions developed so far...will I notice further improvements using neutral color version from this thread?

Haha... no I don't plan on changing it, and theoretically green is the best because Pentile-matrix AMOLED displays (like the one in the SGS) have the full resolution for green pixels, and less resolution for red and blue pixels.

Understood
Important is that it works always
I would try cold version, is it possible to have it at 256Hz?
Thank you hardcore
I also would be really appreciate if you could change the CWM color.
Maybe it`s not the best resolution on Pentile-Matrix-Displays but something special at all
I compared my SGS white level to my PC monitor (Eizo FlexScan S2431W), and I saw that it was a bit cold (blue).
Tried your warm version to correct it, but it seems too much for me.
To specify:
On low and medium screen brightness the screen is now too warm.
On full brightness, it seems OK.
Which makes me think that this matter is more complex than just adjusting one slider or setting or whatever, since the color temperature seems to change a lot with brightness.
On second thought I am not sure if my observations are 100% correct... maybe I'm just too used to a cold temperature...

Thanks for your feedback. So u find the warm too warm, versus your monitor.
Although it's a good basis for comparison, color balance is very tricky because it depends on the ambient light - if you are out in the sun, your display will seem more yellow (because sunlight is very blue). If you are indoors using warm lighting, your display will seem more blue.
The MDNIE software allows a certain level of control - at this point I can control the red/blue color balance which affects all brightness levels. This is similar to Samsung's own presets.
At this point I don't think I want to venture into trying to correct colors at different brightness levels - the source code also doesn't seem to offer that.
Mine is redish, installed your "blue" and it is just darker red...
Tonite I will install the new "no process" version, at least it uses less battery...
@hardcore,
Mention [POLL] on the Title.
Ooops, there is no Odin version this time...
Thank you for your good work!
However i prefer the noc kernel, colors are more natural, but it's my own point of view.
neutral here too
Please note that neutral and no color management versions are not the same.
Noc version has actually colder colors, from what I can see.

I voted for NOC, are you going to do an Odin version ?
Thanks,
The 'warm' version is PERFECT for my first generation UK i9000. Many thanks, been waiting on a colour fix for ages now!

For me the standard works best. The cool is too cold, and the warm makes the screen yellow. I find this strange because I was using the cool versions up until now. Is the color correction dial turned up a bit too much?

I've been looking for apps that can apply filters to the color of what's being rendered on screen, I've found two apps so far. One is exclusive for samsung galaxy devices and the other is Chainfire 3D, which doesn't work on ICS. I was wondering if anyone knows of any apps or custom roms that can achieve this effect, basically make the screen even darker than usual by only displaying everything in one color. I know this is used for some OLED screens to save battery life, but it would be great for me in low light environments.
There's an app called Screen Filter but I'm not sure if you have the option to change the color.
Hey guys I'm coming from a galaxy nexus and i was glad to see we have a notification light but what colors does it allow. For my girlfriend on my galaxy nexus I set the color to magenta but on my note 2 it is more of a blue than anything. So what colors does this notification light display?
Sent from my SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2
Red green and blue i believe. Red is charging/low charge. Blue is notification and green is fullycharged

there are some apps out their to customize your led color and assign what color with a particular app. Light flow comes to mind.
There are about 6 or so colors the led is capable of. White is one of them besides green, red, purple, blue, yellow, I think orange...
Light manager app lets you change it to any color u want.

Sorry to bump an old thread, but I have to ask,
Can your note 2 display orange, yellow or purple?
Mine refuses to display those, orange displays green with an orange spot , yellow only shows green, purple is anything but purple.
I have the international version, the hardware should be the same if i'm not mistaken

In the app you have to tap the thing in advanced settings that says "set hex colours for grey Samsung Galaxy Note II" It only does have the 3 led's but that allows them to be used at different intensity to simulate the other colours

I'm sorry, I searched around but couldn't find advanced settings in light flow.
Also, I tried different levels of blue and green with red at max, since red is weaker by a bit, and was unable to get white no matter what, have you been able to?
Apologies for the trouble.

Use this. Been using it since I got my phone. Makes my notification light whatever Color I want. Even custom colors. Nothing tricky about it. Very easy to use! Also u can set individual colors for every messaging app. Certain color for sms. Different Color for gmail. Different for Kik. Very nice app

Oh sorry I'm using light manager not light flow. That was kind of my fault. Its got a specific setting just for the note 2 because its format is a little different
is it possible to make it so the green light does not stay on when the phone is plugged in and fully charged?

Yup you can disable it in light manager under battery charging and battery charged
I know this may be not that important, but is there a way to change colors for that dialer? I hate the new color and was wondering if there was a way to change it.
Not that I have found, and Samsung is really annoying me with making my dialer, settings, and everything else white. My note 2 had everything black and it was awesome. My note 3 I had a choice with the settings until they did an update and it was stuck on white. I rooted the note 3 and had everything black and it was awesome. Now I have the note 4 and there is no root, all white = ugly and blinding at night unless you turn the brightness down to where you almost can't read it.
They're going to need to find a way to root the phones then somebody will have to either theme it or come up with a theming engine in a custom rom. I don't like it either. I'm still on KK and the system backgrounds are white on it too.

I totally agree! I love the black and white look (black background with white fonts). I wouldn't mind not having root if I could move stuff to SD card and change themes.
Is there a way to get the settings menu, quick settings, notification panel pure black and not grey? Seems whichever wallpaper I set (even solid black) it's not adhering to it...
Might have to wait until substratum can be used if not!
The irony of their colour scheme was not lost on me. I think they did this for a bit of retro feel so it looks like an LCD panel.
Come on Google, I know your designers are probably just 12 years old, but surely there are still some older people there that remember the light bleed issues of LCD displays of old, and that OLED was sold on being able to produce real blacks.
I just want pure black
Oh well, root will soon be amongst us I'm sure
I'm trying to find a wallpaper that is as black as possible, so the system themes it accordingly. But also one that doesn't have a tint to everything... Any recommendations? I just want notification panel etc to be black if possible but also for buttons ect to be a plain colour without a warm'ish tint to them...especially text, like I want that to be white whereas seems the system is adding a tint?
