s-RGB mode is great, except for the white balance, it's a tad too warm/yellow.
Want to share my screen settings, I personally love AMOLED colors but I hate yellowish tint, so I tuned it up a bit to get cold white:
1. Install Kernel Adiutor.
2. Go to Screen section.
3. Red 205, Green 225, Blue 256 (default).
4. Save.
That's it. Keep in mind that this is completely personal choice.

sRGB is supposed to be like that, though. I also find the warmer screen easier on the eyes in bed.

Problem with that is really each screen is different, whereas the sRGB calibration is the same for every display, as far as I know.
I only use the sRGB mode as i hate oversaturated colours and always prefer colour accuracy in all circumstances. As mentioned above the colour temp is a bit off, but overall the sRGB mode is the lesser of all evils. Is it just me or do the colours pop a little more in sRGB since the Nougat update? Before the update i felt the colours were a little under-saturated but i'm happy with it now.
How people can live with the disgusting neon AMOLED colour space is beyond me.
Screen is a downgrade. Very strong yellowish tint. Not happy at all.
I use Official RR and there is option for screen color in %. What to do for it ? How to Calibrate it ? Thanks in andvance.

Thanks.
But Which kernel btw ? Official RR comes with custom kernel build in. So which one is supported ?
yes screen color saturation is a failure when we recognize it and also we saw some yellowish
SRGB is a bit yellow anyway.

For everyone using sRGB just modify rgb values and set green to 248 and red to 249. You'll love it
Would it be weird to say I like the saturation of the default colors
Me too. I like stock. One day when i will root the device maybe i will change but i like very much default colours
One of the best 1080p AMOLED displays that I've used. Of course, it isn't as impressive as the QHD Samsung panels though not really far off. The whites on my display seem good to my eyes. I can easily notice the yellowish warm whites on AMOLED screens but I don't seem to notice anything like that on my unit. My unit luckily has good whites (not too warm/cold) and no pink or green tint.
Though I've been an AMOLED fan for years, this my first phone with an AMOLED display. The colors do seem a bit too saturated at times but it is a gorgeous display. The sRGB mode is nice for when you need color accuracy but it is just too washed out for my taste.
Only real "defect" in this display is the purple ghosting effect which can be observed while scrolling grey elements on black backgrounds in low brightness but this issue is inherent to AMOLED and I've seen it on all AMOLED devices I've laid my eyes on.

Can the color be optimized to look accurate like an ips display with elemental or franco kernel ?

Both kernels supports color control and works the same so either can produce accurate colors, you just need to know the proper color values settings
here's the best profile by far:
saturation intensity = 33
screen value = 127
screen contrast = 121
let me know if it's good.
How to do that on default os?

you need bootloadr unlocked and root and a custom kernel like franco blu spark or boeffla for that. stock kernel does not support that

Excuse the n00bity, but could someone explain what the flashing the Perseus does as far as color calibration goes? It does say the color calibration is better than iPhone - so how does it work? Does it look more "natural" in natural mode? Would I notice much difference (barring resolution and brightness) when it comes to color reproduction compared to other LCD devices?

I don't understand nothing ...What do you mean?The screen is much better than iFail's
Flash perseus, and you get much true colors than saturated ones that comes with s-amoled. If you haven't noticed, there's a slight green-ish tint to the white, which you can get rid of. And obviously you can tweak the calibrations to set the screen to make adjustments that suits you. You'll lose the screen modes, though.
Lots of audio enhancements and stuff like that too. Really a must flash IMHO.

basically perseus rom comes with an app called 's tweaks.' under display settings within this app you can enable something called 'master sequence.' you can toggle it on and off instantly without rebooting. the effect of it is that you get more 'realistic' and natural colors and not the bright saturated colors you would get using amoled samsung phones normally.
i personally prefer the bright saturated colors but the only way you will know is by trying it out for yourself.
Something odd iv noticed , when i turn up the brightness.. it does not feel like the brightness is being turned up it feels like extreme contrast the colors get deeper and the whites are just painfull to see(too bright).. sure the colors look great but it seems wrong while playing games as if im lacking gamma.
Iv tried changing screen mode it doesnt help too much, everything seems too dark in games (compared too xpeira z ultra and ipad mini retina)with glaring white contrast and unnaturally deep colors. (iv used amoled on the s4 so its not the saturation thats bothering me)

im experenceing the same, if i turn up the brightness it starts look look washed out. it is as you said, its like its playing with the contrast. its more noticable when playing a video that has dark scenes in it, blacks start to look dark grey
more users on a thread in the general section have noticed this, as some have pointed its an issue with the gamma not being calibrated properly and samsung using a non traditional method of back lighting as per anandtechs review.

I read that the screen has a white pixel next to the rgb pixels. Could it be be the white pixel is used for brightness and now results in a black screen looking grey? Haven't noticed it being a problem as I set it on auto.

yes that could be it, i only notice it in a dark environment, however its not an ideal way to do brightness. Auto does not work for me at all its always too dim.
I hate the yellow tint of the Moto X Force, and I try to fix this.
floepie said:
Wow. Good find! This is the ONLY app I have found that actually *decrease* RGB channel levels with respect to base levels. All other apps only increase levels. By increasing channels, you wind up removing those inky black on AMOLED screens. So, when your brightness levels increase, the blackness takes on the color of the increased color channel, which of course is bad.
I do question your method of removing the yellowish whites of the Moto X. The color temp adjuster slid all the way to the right at 6500 is essentially no filter at all, as its the default color temp. Moving it to the left warms up the white balance, but doesn't result in whiter whites. What I found to improve whiteness was to keep the white balance at 6500, but in the color channels, reduce both RED and GREEN channels to 0.949 and 0.937, respectively. I just keep these settings around the clock and don't make use of all the other filters.
So, this is the only app that I've found where you can maintain your inky blacks while actually *raising* the color temp, or at least raise BLUE levels with respect to the other 2 channels.

Thanks to @floepie I discovered the CF.Lumen app (by @Chainfire) and it works really well, however, I find (it can be is only an impression) that my battery quickly empty since I have apply his tweak.
I also find the screen a little bit to much blue, I think a softer adjustment would be better (but its better than the ugly stock yellow tint).
The question is simple how to modified the setting without unbalanced the screen and without loss the "AMOLED inky black" ?
Modified this will increase battery drain of the screen ? (I feel that it increases but I'm not sure)
I hope with your answers I will be able to modified this thread and create a tuto !
Thanks you guys !
Use screen balance instead. Works great on my 6p and Moto X Force.

i can clearly see that the white of this phone is much much more warm and yellowish respecting others phones with lcf, but also a galaxy note 4 ( amoled) of one of my friends.
i can't understand why lenovo made this calibration. Of course maybe using it as primary phone you will not notice it after some days, but at the moment it is my secondary phone and every time i switch from lcd to p2's amoled i can clearly see that the white ruins all the colors....into an image.
ps: maybe OVER 50% of brightness the white starts to be "ok..." but under 50... 40% it is not a nice white

but does it interfere with the PURE BLACK? i noticed that there are apps that can "fix" the temperature of the color by adding a LAYER on the screen....
but this layer corrupts the true black.... no more really black but with a tint of blue or yellow ( blue if you try to make colder, yellof if warmer)
i hope you made a real test about it, use the app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gombosdev.displaytester and visualize the BLACK color.
if it is not 100% off the display..... the live display option of your rom is not acceptable

Nup,,black are true blacks(pure black pixels get off),,almoled display does not have pure white they are warm(yellowish)i had set it to cool color (blue)which makes the screen look little white than yellow,,i will compare display with samsung device and check,,buh black are still pure black no yellowish or white tint on black
Sorry for bad English

but did u test? because some tricks to change the temperature of the displays.... are to add a "layer" of color.... and this makes NO MORE TRUE BLACKS on amoled diplays....
Yes,there is noticable difference in white the stock ROM now looks a little yellow but the stock deodexed version has the cool white colour which looks far more beeter that yellowish tint
I have not so idea for the reason behind that may be Lenovo has recalibrated the screen if you want to change the tint you can try various apps that requires root to calibrate screen Colors manually
i found the problem !!!
go in the live display and at the colour calibration menu.
JUST set the green color to 92% and the white will be PERFECT
i noticed tha tis ONLY THE GREEN that destroys the white.... just lowering it to 95 gives a normal warmish white... setting to 90 it is like a normal lcd cold white ... at 92 it is perfect between a warm and cold yellow, the perfect sweet spot.
now i am FINALLY HAPPY with my screen.... and the white written on all the app themed with black substratum, are finally well constrasted with the black..... being pure white
i don't know why i seem to be the only one, i always wanted a note because it's been praised as the best display of all time i finally got a note 10+ and the display disappoints me to no end, first off the colors are dull, my xperia xz1 on super vivid mode has more vibrant colors, second off the brightness it's not amazing if i compare my note 10+ to my huawei mate 10 pro the huawei appears more vibrant and bright, the huawei is running a custom rom, my note 10 + has custom white balance settings with green and red turned down to 0 and it's still too yellow for my taste the screen mode is itensive and yes bluelight filter is off, when i use the note 10+ on it's own i get used too it and i see no issues with the display but then i start up my mate 10 pro and get a much whiter better white and overall brighter image, my note 10+ is set to +10 brightness and high performance mode all auto brightness off and max brightness, white still appears dull colors appear dull, why am i the only one who feels this way?
Was gonna ask if your blue light filter thing was on. The white seers into my brain unless I have the filter on. This seems to be the best display I've ever used. And you're saying other phones are brighter? I haven't found a single phone brighter than this one. Maybe a defective screen?

my tweaks are the following
max performance with brightness 10+ enabled and brightness slider to the highest possible settingm, intensive with the temp slider to the far left as in coldest as it gets then advanced white balance both red and green turned down to 0 blue turned to max meaning the screen should have an extreme blue tint it doesn't, i tried the google books method and blue light is always off when i launch the app so it's not that, i even tried calibrating colors under accessability where you have to rearrange colored balls result are almost identical to what i had with a slight yellow tint to the white so worse than before i turned that off again
i had this issue with the original display and now the replacement one when i havenothing to compare to white looks great colors pop screen looks good white feels slightly dull but it's hard to tell, but then i go back to my xperia xz1 or mate 10 pro and feel a huge difference in white and overall color performance, both displays pop a lot more than the note 10+
might i add i am ultra sensitive to warm displays so what looks great to someone else might look like a yellow mess to me i always increase blue on all displays i have my sony af9 is set to cold with all color enhancers to max i need colors that pop with no yellow tint what so ever, i am not a fan of accurate colors at all
Being the most accurate display of colors doesn't mean it'll be your favorite. Maybe you prefer less accurate (seriously, no snark here). But brightness should be pretty clear cut... No idea why yours wouldn't be as bright.

well i already know i hate accurate colors i want bright vibrant cold colors anything accurate to me looks dull and yellow the surface pro i have which is known for it's accurate calibration almost looked black and white to me until i got it decent by forcing intel control panel and increasing color intensity but the screen was so terrible on it i stopped using it i just couldn't deal with that display so it's been collecting dust ever since, my xperia xz1 is using super vivid mode with blue turned up to 171 the screen becomes complete trash without super vivid mode and it becomes the best display i have ever seen with super vivid mode turned on, i wasn't a huge fan of the display on the xperia 1 either that phone has no super vivid mode and the display was rather dull to me but the brightness and white was miles better than the note 10+ especially when it forced the brightness to max on apps like youtube (it dimmed outside of certain apps which i could not handle so i sent it back but on youtube the brightness was just mindblowing the white was so perfect and clear then it wen't gray as soon as it would dim when i exited the youtube app)

I believe that the Note interface is more greyish than white. This is why even without the blue filter, if you do not increase backlight alot, it is not quite white.
It can be seen on the Home screen, when you group-up some apps icons in a folder, have a look at the white of the icons and compare it to the white of the folder itself. Not same white. The surrounding white of the folder is grey, not white.
Same goes for the google search on home screen, it is not white compared to the the white of say, the Google Apps icon.
Maybe try another theme if you do not like it ?
