blue tint with night mode on? - Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers

As the title says !)

Yep. Blue tint will always be there if your screen has it. Almost brings it back to normal color at an angle.

I personally don't notice the blue tint when night mode is active, and I keep night mode active 24/7

On mine, with night mode on, it shifts color at an angle, same as with night mode off. I am returning it - the screen should not do this - defect.

Cool LED Light Charging Tidbit Stock JB

I discovered some interesting behavior by the LED notification light on our phone since the JB update. This isn't a bug since I can confirm it is repeatable and seems to have a purpose.
Okay so while your phone is on the charger you know how the LED light comes on if the screen is off? Hold the phone in your hand and make sure the screen is on. Turn the screen off with your power button and notice the brightly lit LED light (red or green, depending on your charge state). Now, turn the screen back on and set the phone down on a flat surface. Turn the screen off again now and notice the LED is much dimmer.
Another thing to try is to turn off the screen while the phone is in your hand to get the bright LED and then set it down. The LED will set itself to a dimmer state after some time goes by. Cool, huh? Seems to be designed that way to more efficiently sip the juice while charging.
Class dismissed!
EDIT: poit correctly determined the reason behind the intensity of the LED light is directly related to the ambient light in the phone's immediate environment. Kudos to poit!
Cool.

The LED brightness seems keyed to the ambient light sensor. It's it's in a dim environment (or you have the sensor blocked) when you turn off the screen, the LED will be dim. If it's in a bright environment when you turn off the screen the LED will be bright.
Mine didn't change at all stayed dim. Got me thinking though, could it be adjusting for how bright it is?
It sure does if I go to a bright room my indicator is bright. Dim room and a dim indicator. While charging if you set the phone down if and while bright it will go dim.

I believe you are correct. I thought it had something to do with gyroscope sensor(hence why it was dim on a flat surface). But I just tried it somewhere with more light and your assessment is correct. Bright environment equals bright LED. Dim environment equals dim LED. Still cool!
:good:
P.S. - this is best tested in a dim room with a lamp you can shut on or off. Lamp on = bright LED, etc. The LED will go back and forth while you play with the lighting.

Or you could just cover the light sensor like I just did and then remove your hand.

The Zenwatch uses low bit depth ambient display. This reduces the colors available to black, white, blue, red, magenta, green, cyan, and yellow. It will turn whatever color your ambient mode watch face's colors are to the closes match out of that list. It's incredibly frustrating but it does contribute to our above average battery life.

true ambient mode not working correctly !!

i am having a weird problem with watch faces and ambient mode..
earlier when ambient mode was on whatever watch background color was like black or white...it would display only that color in ambient mode ..for eg. if watch background color is white then in ambient mode it would display white but now since last two days ...whatever watch face be or background ..it would always display black background in ambient mode
someone help me please !!

Questions about night mode

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.
