Is it normal for the night mode screen filters to lose its colour when entering vr mode?
Tried stock and few 3rd party blue light filters and they all seem to do the same thing when in vr, (show as active but lose the red colour.)
Cheers

I'm surprised Night Mode is even working with Daydream?
I'd have thought it counter-productive.
Like watching 3D movies on a dim Television.
Sorry I'm no help to your thread.

the camera on the phone sucks at night does anybody know if there is a registry edit to enable a night mode or can it even be done maybe even a low light mode thanks for any and all help in advance
Night Mode
In the camera settings, there is a night option in the Whit Balance settings
I concur with nickf123654's suggestion of adjusting the white balance setting. But don't expect to be able to take photos outdoors at night all of a sudden.
I experience a very anoying bug since I own this phone, I prefer to use the Movie screen mode because it's less flashy and more readable.
But randomly my phone switch to optimize mode and the only way to make it fall back to the movie mode is to change settings like luminosity and aiuto rotation, and after some try it sometime fallback to Movie mode.
Does anybody else face that $$$$ bug ?
Hello, I don't have this phone but would like to understand something about the included night mode from those that do:
1. Is there a way to automate night mode so that it turns on at certain times of day or when the sun sets depending on time zone, including changing intensity as it gets darker/later?
2. When night mode is enabled, is the color filter applied to all pixels, including black ones? I'm currently using twilight in my N6P and it applies the warm filter to the entire screen, even the black pixels, which don't need it, which has the opposite effect of what's desired.
Thanks!

1. No. Maybe you can do this with Tasker though.
2. Black stays black.
Have anyone else got a Daydream (2017) model for their Pixel 2 XL?
I have both of these, and I'm disappointed and annoyed with the setup.
Overall, it is a good setup and could work well; however I have a few issues.
- Blacks on the VR screen 'bleed/smudge' when you move. This is most noticeable when viewing a Game or Movie and it shows a large video screen (such as Netflix VR, although Netflix VR isn't work at the moment - the Virtual TV is still displayed.) When you move your head, the black smudges across the display, like it does when you're scrolling your phone in normal use under low brightness.
- The Pixel 2 XL seems to go into low brightness when connecting to the VR. This is when it's set to 'reduce blurring' in display settings. If I set it to 'reduce flicker' then the brightness is nice and bright, but the picture quality blurs when you move your head.
I've been playing around with the brightness setting, and for me, it's way too low in VR - which is causing the black bleeding/smudging issue.
I can adjust the brightness in VR mode, but it then keeps that brightness when I go back to normal use - which is annoying (it should switch back).
Has anyone else noticed this - I don't think I had this issue when I first got the phone and the VR - so not sure if I've messed too much, or one of the app updates/phone updates has changed something.
I've tried clearing the CACHE/DATA on Daydream app but that doesn't seem to make a difference.
Hi everybody! I'll start by saying that this forum has been really useful in the last few years, so thank you to all users that keep it alive!
I just bought a new Galaxy S20, coming from a S8, and on my old phone, when I watched a HDR video (for example, on Prime Video), the blue light filter would automatically turn off and brightness would go to the max (only while playing). Now, on S20 it is no longer the case. Even if I turn off the blue light filter, brightness can be changed with no issue. That goes beyond the purpose of HDR, which needs brightness to be all the way up. In fact, I believe HDR itself is not working. I checked with my S8 side by side and the difference is pretty clear.
Why is that? Was it the same for S9 and S10, also?
I read somewhere that screen should be set to natural (or that it automatically uses natural when viewing HDR videos), but I see no difference at all. I guess that the brightness not going up is the main cue to see if HDR playback is working or not, and - in my case - it is not. Tried also Netflix, to no avail.
May you help me with this?
Thank you!
