Does anyone know if there are any working ways to adjust color temperature? I think most methods require a modified surfaceflinger library. My screen is sickeningly bluish green.
Thanks.

Sounds like a bad screen. I'd take it back. Mine is very balanced. Super saturated but very balanced.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
I agree, my first one had a bad screen and a dead pixel right in the center, the screen quality on my new one is better all around and I wasn't even expecting there to be an improvement
Thanks for the suggestions, but the other ones I've seen don't look any better in terms of their greenish-blue color cast. I've read it's typical of AMOLED displays. I just want a way to adjust white balance like CM has.
...and I've discovered the answer. Chainfire3D's Pro version has support for Custom color "nightvision mode". Basically, exactly what I wanted. It works perfectly! Do yourself a favor and get this and drop your green and blue levels down a tiny bit.
You just saved me a two hour drive to get a new phone. Great find.
I thought I would start a thread where people could upload backgrounds that work well for the new "My Design" watchface on the updated Moto Connect app.
I'll start first with a black leather background that looks nice on the Moto 360. This is a simple yet elegant background that really looks good imo.
Here are a couple more for you sports fans.
What size are u guys using to make these?
The size doesn't matter. The app allows you to crop the image.

UPDATE 8/3/2019 Hello everyone its been a long time since I have been on here as I took a break from here as it is so time consuming on making custom watch faces but I still get a ton of requests, kinds words and donations to this very day. I understand that I started doing this way before digital watches were as popular now so I am considering starting back and trying to make custom watch faces and in helping the community and myself. I am adding a poll to see what the demand is for digital watch faces for any watch of your desire. Please share as if the demand is enough and can be advantageous enough for the time that is put into these I will start doing this again as I have always had a passion to create and contribute. Thanks again for everyones kind words as always!!!

Since our Huawei watches are AMOLED, I'd really like to see more faces that won't lead to excessive burn-in in ambient mode. I'm always looking for dimmed faces that only show hands, not minute marks or logos. I'd especially like to see more analog faces where the dimmed hands don't start at the center.
What option do you select in the settings for facer to make it fill and fit correctly on the Hauwei? All the options I see puts it smaller and towards the top left corner.
I nice high resolution version of the Rolex Submariner watchface without a bezel would be amazing!
Hi,
Is it possible to ask your moto360's skins without the black band at the bottom of each skin ?
Thank you very much for your beautiful work.

Could you possibly do the Tissot PRS 200 in blue?
Can't post a link to image as I'm new, I hope you can help!
Thanks! Amazing work!
a dark mondaine with date and stop2go would be amazing
Waiting to see if full round faces will be available without that flat tire.

well, the topic is quite calm. I uploaded the picture of the Lotus watch but no reaction from anyone so far.
Cause I saw in this and other topics that Leni (and ofcourse the others) made some great watchfaces so far. I wonder how the Lotus watch would look like digitally
So I'm requesting this watch face without the moto 360 and with working icons, or at least icons that display weather, watch battery, phone battery, and footsteps. I've loved this design since day one.
I'd like a watchface that does not turn all black in ambient mode. Some of the ZW3 watchfaces do that (for ex. Lux Copper) but I cant figure out how to do that on Hwatch. And the ZW3 watchfaces dont work on Hwatch (constant loading issue)
Thanks
Hi guys, I just bought the G3 international and I love it, awesome device. But I'm really disappointed with the display. Yes, the 2k resolution is amazing and I find the color reproduction OK, but the problem is there's literally no black, it's blue instead. I know it's not amoled, but I expected some sort of black from an LG ex-flagship device, instead of the blue of chinese low end devices. I don't see anybody talking about this, wich is weird to me given that it was a flagship device, and the issue is really noticeable. It bothers me a lot. So here's my question, is there any way to calibrate the screen so I can make the "black" less blue and more like actual black? Like using kcal or something similar? The built in settings do nothing.
Thanks a lot!
Nice thread

Do you have your device rooted? If so, you can try kcal by yourself. I'm not sure if I wanna root it for now.
Without rooting, I don't know of a way to do this. If you do decide to root and unlock bootloader, if you flash a custom kernel, some have support for the type of display calibration you want, through an app called "Kernel Adiutor". Besides this, I'm not aware of a way to do that.

If you're coming from an AMOLED device it might be difficult for you to get used to G3's LCD, the things you can do if you're rooted is change saturation, contrast, dispaly value, hue and color calibration but it won't make black look like if the screen is off like in AMOLED. Although, you say that black reproduction is more like blue... maybe you got a faulty screen mine doesn't look like that just like a dark gray...

You tried opening an image of solid black color on fullscreen with brightness more than 50%? I'd be OK with dark gray, but on my device it's really blue.

Yep at 100% and it looks more like gray than blue, but maybe our color perspective is different. You can try with another LCD display like a TV at 100% brightness and compare them to see if the black looks the same

I also have a Moto G 2015 and on which the black looks dark gray. I didn't like Moto's display at first but when I compare it to the G3's display I like it better in terms of black reproduction(while far from displaying black, it's closer to black than blue). So I assume it's not my eyes' fault, maybe I have a faulty display. I rooted the device and installed cm13. I'm gonna play with kcal app a bit.

I saw Erica's review today and the Pixek 3 XL seems to have a serious black clipping problem.
Can please anyone confirm this? I mean, anyone having it has already tried watching some Netflix series with many dark scenes (something like Luke Cage, Ozark, Daredevil, etc) and can confirm this issue?
I've already sent back my note 9 for black clipping as I do use my phone to watch several series and movies and I want to make up my mind in order to cancel my preorder before shipping.
Thanks in advance
When compared to my tv, yes it definitely does. But honestly I hadn't even noticed up until reading this... SO THANKS ALOT
Black clipping?
Yep, I notice it also. That's 2 strikes for this phone. 1 more and it's ooooouuuut

Do you watch movies and series with it regularly? These tend to have dark scenes and you can easily spot the issue. Is it that bad?

Yeah I watch a lot of both on my phone. I'm watching Lost in Space on Netflix right now and it gets pretty bad in the very dark scenes. Here is a screenshot of the Sicario 2 trailer(I couldn't take a screenshot in Netflix)...
Edit... disregard the screenshot in this post, you won't be able to see the black clipping from a screenshot uploaded by my Pixel. I took pictures of the screenshots with my iPhone and posted them below in a new post.
Edit...I just realized that you won't be able to see the black clipping from a screenshot let me take a photo with my iPhone Xs Max. I'll post the pictures in a new post
Here are the photos of the screen shots, they are both from YouTube trailers. One is from Sicario 2 and the other is from Lost in Space.

Are you on Adaptive Colors, because I was using an app called display tester. Did a black saturater test on Normal, was able to get to box 7 at 100% switched to Adaptive and could see up to box 5 at 100% . Not sure it that would help.

To be fair, my iPhone Xs Max also has a little black clipping when watching these trailers in YouTube. I'd say that the Pixel on the Natural color setting has no more than my iPhone. But for some reason, the Natural color setting didn't make Netflix any better. My iPhone has no black clipping whatsoever in Netflix. I wonder if it's because the iPhone supports HDR, does the Pixel 3?
I just tried Black Panther on Netflix with my Pixel set to Natural colors, and there is all kinds of clipping/ crushing going on, black, brown, and blue. Everything is messed up in that movie. If anyone has Netflix, try watching the Black Panther for about 5 minutes starting from about the 2 minute mark when the 2 guys are in an apartment. If your display looks good, please let me know.

As some else wrote Pixel 3 XL is HDR capable.....but maybe Netflix app still doesn't recognize it as such.
Do you see HDR besides Black Panther title into movie description page or just HD? This would tell you whether Netflix app is recognizing it as HDR capable device. I'm assuming that Black Panther is an HDR title on Netflix.
PS: thanks for your tests...I'm looking forward to read what others have to say about your finding on black panther

I just checked, and Black Panther is not HDR on either device.
What exactly is black clipping and crushing?
I tested with a video on YouTube and with the screen set to "Boosted" I could only see down to level 23 of the video but with the screen set to "Adaptive" I could see down to level 20. Adaptive mode seems to help a little. I think the reference black level on the video was 16.

When I originally posted that I had a lot 9f black clipping, I had my display on 100% brightness. I turned on adaptive brightness, which lowered it to about 80%, almost all of the black clipping went away. This is also how my 4k HDR TV works, so I guess it's not as big of a deal as I thought it was. However, my iPhone xs max can be on 100% brightness and have very little to no black clipping.
