Sharper in terms of what context? Are you bootloader unlocked? If so, flash a custom kernel then manually tweak the color values using an app like ElementalX Kernel Manager or Kernel Adiutor.

meaning the icons and text to be sharper ! i know about the color option in elemental

Franco and Trinity kernels both do this. Is it supposed to save on the battery? I personally find it irritating to look at, but maybe I'll get used to it.
All screens are slightly different, so why don't you just change the gamma values? Francos app allows you to easily do this

Is that really it? Screens are different? That seems weird, since if I change all 3 values to 0 its fine.

Yeah. Mine looks fine with default values. -4 0 5

Kernel isn't changing screen color...
But rather enabling the option to do so.
So if you have an app/setting in your rom enabling color control, it's automatically using THOSE settings upon boot.
What file do I edit? I can't remember what file it was when I was running the Franco kernel... it was somewhere in /system
Hi. There are 4 kind of display mode:
-dynymic
-standard
-natural
-video mode
Which one you use everyday ? Did you try another for increase battery life ?
I'm usually on standard modd the second one. I wanted to try natural but the colours are too ugly.
Anyone tried perseus kernel and change settings colours for the natural mode and see the change?
Thanks

Natural and Perseus' Master Sequence is almost the same.
Natural seems to have more saturared colors though.

Which one is the best for you? Natural had better white than perseus? Don't know what is master sequence can you explain please?

Master Sequence over rides the Samsung's screen display profile. I believe it gives me a better white than Natural or Movie display.

You set this on STweaks ? Is this increase the battery life too?

No effect on battery life really.
Yes on STweaks. Go to Screen tab and check Master Sequence. Apply and that's it.

Way off. Perseus offers near perfect color calibrations, while Natural is more closer to real colors, but still off.

Really? Haven't been paying that much to detail. When I was on Adam Kernel with Natural display I was satisfied with it.
But can i choose natural display for the real colour and calibrate the screen for the white with perseus

This. Like I said bro, it overrides it thus selecting any screen mode will have no effect.

Well, natural mode is still way off - the whites IIRC still had that green hue to it. Perseus comes with calibrations that even beats iPad etc, read the thread for more info You can see when you compare it with an iPad to see what I'm talking about.
And read the Perseus thread for more info re: calibration, there are some interesting posts by Slimer777 on the same

Yeah. I saw the iPad and Macbook comparison photo. Can't believe the color calibration could do such :angel:

Yep. Most of the difference people notice is contrast ratio, color calibration etc. - the whole PPI/resolution aspect is way too overrated. Now when I switch the calibration off, the icons seem horrible and blurry. The screen is crisp and gorgeous with calibration on.
I use dynamic as its more of saturated and I love them with red pill my kernel

I was on standard mode now I'm on natural. I love satured colors but i wanna see if it increase battery with natural mode
OK. It is known that a respectable amount of GNexs' displays are plagued by a purple tint.
Some thought they just had inferior display panels. That's not the case. They are just badly calibrated.
I tried, in vain, to fix the tint by using the partial calibration controls offered by some custom kernels and TricksterMod, etc.
It made the things a little better but that was it. The problem remained. So, I researched a little and finaly
I compiled a pair of AK kernels, one for Android 4.2.2 and one for 4.3 with fixes at the panel driver LUT (Look Up Table).
Those of you that have a purple tinted display go ahead and flash them. Post your findings here.
4.3: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44267006&postcount=31216
4.2.2: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44267443&postcount=31218
P.S. Of course your Trickster color settings should slightly change now
It didn't completely get rid of it but its about 90% gone :thumbup:

OK, nice finding.
Can you install this app (it is safe, don't worry) and tell me what panel code does it says you have?

Okay, so the app only works with those kernel builds compiled by mpokwsths, I assume.
Could you share a patch?
a manta wrote this.
Sure, I could share the code. But as it seems it isn't the same for everyone. Samsung did a mess with GNex calibration.
The good thing is that for everyone it is miles better than stock.
Anyone else tried the kernels?

Yeah!Please!And the rest like Cover,Radio,Music etc.!
Really looking forward to that amazing app!
Another reason we need that is because the colors of all custom ROMs till date is rather dull and there is no way to tweak them.
I really cannot wait for some XDA genius to port it for Marshmallow ROMs.
This is impossible .
ZenUI Services app is needed, so it's impossible.

Does Live Display change the colour saturation like Splendid custom settings?

Yep, the color saturation (also color temperature) could be customized on the same way as Splendid do, but a bit better...
I usually set LiveDisplay mode to automatic, with Day 6500K and Night 4500K.

Just install CM to try it and live display dont do what I asked.
Have you used the Splendid app from stock ROM?
It dont just color the screen (as cm live display). He can set contrast regardless of base-color matrix (or temperature).
Dont matter what temperature I set, the color still washed and boring.
Is there any reliable way to change display resolution to 720p?
Anybody?

you can change your dpi by manually editing your build.prop, or use an app like textdroider dpi.

The question is about screen size, not density.
OP: try this. You have to be rooted.

Tried it but did nothing, may be it doesn't support latest OS as it has not been updated for a while.

You can use SecondScreen for 720p.

This one is working, root required. Here you have some presets and you can edit the values as you like, too.
Both of these are interesting options. I am testing, there is a bit lagginess though.
