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!

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.

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.
Hello ..., is there any way to tweak the white balance ? I just got my tablet, it' s amazing by the way, but i want to make the white color a little bit cooler! Thanks!!

Can you explain to me how i can do the adjustment?
Do i need to root the tablet or from the menu? (The only tweak i found from menu is the color profiles : amoled basic, amoled cinema, etc) I have a sony xperia phone and it has an option to adjust the white balance with a slider!
Thanks..

Today I got two 8.4 Tabs, both wifi only versions in my hands and I was impressed, that the white color was different. Sadly, the whites on mine were a little bit more yellowish, warmer, and a little bit dirtier. Is this normal for samoled?

my experiences tell not all screens produce the same color, some are yellowish, while others are slightly blue, which can make white color a bit grey, etc
once i wanted to buy a note2 but i found its so bluish and therefore no deal
so each time I buy a phone, esp amoled, I will check the screen (and other things of coz) before I pay
I currently have 2 Galaxy Tab has 10.5 inch at home and deciding which one to keep. The main difference between the two is that one has a newer build date and love one screen seems to be a little more orange brown tint to the white versus the other tablet seems to be a little more blue yellow intent. Other than that perform identically however I did notice that when I run the CPU temperature app that the one with the yellow blue tinted screen seems to run a few degrees cooler most of the time except when using Chrome when where the other tablet seems to run several degrees cooler but only when JavaScript is activated.
One little trick in addition to adjusting the temperature using the adaptive display were changing from AMOLED basic to Evelyn cinema to make it cooler, is to go into the accessibility settings and then go into divisions section and then go into the area where one can do a test of their color as if they needed adjustments because of their own visual impairment. If you run that test and intentionally miss order the color tiles, and then will activate the option to allow you to adjust a slider which can further give you A white screen that seems to be somewhere in between the really blue display and the really warm AMOLED basic
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
Old thread i know but i just wanted to thank you for that tip Canadoc. I've been struggling with the excessively warm image from my Tab S for a year now and while putting it into "Cinema" mode fixes the white balance it also destroys the contrast by making all subtle dark detail just disappear. This accessibility method has given me much nicer whites without affecting the contrast other than removing the orange haze. I assume the colours are going to be slightly different now but i can't say i've noticed anything there. I wish the Tab S had the same display options as the Galaxy S5 has where you can choose the cooler white level without hammering the contrast too. Maybe it's something Samsung do in order to protect the lifespan of the blue sub-pixel?
So thanks again
When the tab s 8.4 came out the screen quality was a bit variable, but it's been months since I have have read of anybody having a problem, see if you cab get a replacement.

Mine's the 10.5 and this is the second one i got which was exactly the same as the first one in screen tone.
I always wondered if third-world country`s got B-C grade stock, as the consumer protection can be poor or non-existent, maybe it`s cheaper for the re-seller to buy this lower grade stock with screen color problems ect, I dont know?

UK here and bought from John Lewis. I've heard plenty of issues with screen temp on these ones so it's fairly common. Just using it this morning and thinking it perhaps wasn't quite as white as i'd like it and checked the settings to see if it was still in the proper mode and it was, switched it back to the old one and don't know how i ever lived with that brown tone!
Under different light sources it can take a few minutes for your eyes to adapt to the screen, so white can look a little off while this is happening, as the human eye will normally auto white balance anything you look at.
Does you screen when browsing with a white background at night, but not totally dark still not look perfectly white after a few minutes of looking at the screen.
Everybody seems to see colors slightly differently, and some not so slight, did you see the white/gold blue/black dress debate.

No it never looks like clean white to me unless i tilted it slightly back or forward and then i could see the tone shift to a cooler temp. I do keep the brightness down to under 10% most of the time and that doesn't help the white level either.
I can't say i ever understood the dress image, you can factually measure and define the colour on that one so i don't know why people were confused.
Have you had anybody else check your screen, do they see the same problem, though at 10% brightness the screen is never going to look really white, I always keep mine on Auto -5 , I have the RGB sensor set on Auto i cannot even remember what it`s really called as i have never changed it, but in Auto it is supposed to keep the whites looking white, what is yours set too.

Warm colours
My tab s 8,4 screen has a brownish layer, which makes whites mor brown and the colours less sharp. But when I put pressure on my tab, the "layer" goes away.

Sorry for not getting back to you earlier, car knocked the phone pole down and been without for 12 long days. *sigh*
Anyway, i haven't had anyone else look at mine but i don't need anyone to anyway, it's a very overly warm tone. I've never used the RGB adaptive sensor thingy as it only works in a few apps that i never use anyway.

Do you see a much whiter tone when you choose Cinema mode? If so and you like it then you really should try the method in this thread to keep it without also cranking up the contrast.
Hello everyone,
I purchased this phone (new) few days back, and after using it for a day, i have observed that this phone has overall reddish or pinkish tint on the display. Is this normal?
I have searched a lot about this issue, and what i found, people have talked about two types of displays, one with yellowish/warm colors and other with blueish colors.
My phone doesnt have yellowish tint, but it has reddish tint overall, which is more prominent in low brightness and also when comparing displays with my nexus 4. Is this normal with every lg g4, that this phone has more reddish color than bluish (on cooler displays).
Thanks

Thank you for thr reply. Yeah it seems, its an issue with my phone's display. Unfortunately, it is not even in warranty. So i cant get display replaced free of cost. I think i will have to live with it now, thought it doesnt seem good at all. The pinkish or reddish tint looks ugly esp after using some other phone (with better display)
Anyway, did u find some work around for it? Seems only few people r facing this issue, coz i could not find many posts about this issue on google. Found some, but not many.

Unfortunatly there is no software fix except from replace the panel (it's an hardware problem).
Someone says it is more visible with dark color (so you can use bright screensaver just to hide a little the problem) but nothing a part from replacement will give you a real fix.
Look at the guide I provided in the general section. It should make a big difference. LG doesn't calibrate their displays so doing some calibration makes a lot of difference.

Alright. I think i ll have to live with it now. Its an awesome phone apart from the bad display (whcih i got). Hope my eyes start ignoring it .
And also i havent seen many people complaining about this issue. Seems only few handsets have this reddish/pinkish tint issue.
Btw, did u try the app "screen adjuster free". I have installed it and increased the values for green and blue by 8 and 10 respectively. But i m just testing it, i may chnage the values later. But this app seems to making things better. I know it just adds a layer to display, but at least one can get rid of that reddish tint.

Just bought a new Zplay 1 week ago. I noticed on dark (not total black) colors that my top right screen corner is a bit brighter that the other parts of the screen. This brightness expands from right too to the middle. My question: is it fixable? Should i ask for a replacement device from Motorola's service (will they accept it?) or stick with this device and live with that? From previous experience from other services, usually i got the older phone back in worst condition than it was before. Anyone else with same problem?
I'm open to suggestions. Thanks.
Btw, fantastic device :fingers-crossed:
Amoled displays cannot have backlight bleeding since they have no backlight. Try downloading a pure black image, turn your brightness to maximum (no auto brightness) and see what you get. If you can still see something, then you might have a defective oled display. Motorola customer service might try to turn you down with the usual "Back light bleed is totally normal (it is normal on IPS LCDs to an extent)", since they more than likely dont know the difference between an IPS LCD and an AMOLED.
Or you could try turning up your brightness to maximum and just activate moto display and see if you can see anything.

On pure blacks i see nothing. The display is perfect. On the other hand i get to see a difference on other colors, mostly darker greys, for example on Chrome's empty tab panel where the color is a bit gray, there the problem can be seen. I'm don't know if this is natural or not. I will upload some pics to get an idea

Could be screen temp issue. Maybe wasnt calibrated correctly.
Id suggest get a screen test app , bring up a white color and see if that side has a yellow tint. If so its a color temp issue or also could be color distortion. Get a new one.

Amoled usually checked with black background..& see it in dark invirment if any light visable ..if any light visable than ur display is faulty...
AMOLED displays always has to be TOTAL black, since there is not lamp providing light like in LCD and LED panels.
Obviously, there is a problem with the screen. If it does not affect the use, it does not matter, but if you can not accept such a screen, you can replace a new moto z play screen by yourself.

I would say that it will make a difference but it'll be marginal. Making a screen light up white vs a dull black I would assume would use less power.
No it's not amoled but there should be a difference, however slight.
I always go blacked out on all my phones, just looks better.
I think there is no effect, since it is an lcd. Backlight would always be on no matter what wallpaper you put, it will still consume battery.. Not like amoled, every black part of the screen, means that led is off.. Correct me if im wrong..

That is correct, however different colours use different amounts of power however marginal.. White would use the most as its top of the spectrum, black being the least.
