Hi, is there any way through ABD to change the settings on the FireTV to disable HDR? You can set it to HDR always on and ADAPTIVE HDR, but no way to actually disable it within the standard settings/menu's.
On many TV's the FireTV enables HDR and it looks DIRE, all washed out etc. It's a big problem that no one can get a reply ion from Amazon.
Anyone?
thanks
Tess
I've used ABD before to change screensaver settings

I cannot seem to find the answer to what i have a question on, i see so many cool wallpapers and i dont know how to get them to run on my HD whilst TF is active. Seems I can only get my today screen to reflect the photo i select if i turn OFF touch flo, no good. Support? Thanks
Set the wallpaper via the setting menu on TouchFlo3D rather than the settings for the Today screen.
yes, bt doing so yeilds a low quality picture. any idea how we can set a high resolution pic (800x480) as the background to actually use the screen's full potential?

it is possible but the only way of doing it is a complex hack which is rather time consuming and the results are not perfect. if you would like me to write up the instructions i will do so when i get back on my pc. (browsing on my phone atm) the hack involves inserting pngs into system files and hex edits.
I've created a theme with a high quality wallpaper which you can find here
Hi all, i seem to be having a problem with some apps (meetme and twc tv apps) switching to Portrait/landscape mode and making the screen resolution wrong (too stretched out) this has only started happening since the 5.2.6.0 Update. My question is, was that some new setting added to change this or disable it some how?
try using this free app from playstore it will stop anything rotating

Hi everyone,
for the last days i´ve been trying to set my Fire TV Stick Gen. 2 (Root) Orientation to portrait mode.
The things i´ve tried:
- Set Orientation App
- Orientation Manager App
- Build.prop: ro.sf.hwrotation
I am out of ideas how to change it.....
We want to use the Fire TV Stick as a lyrics sheet for our live band.
Would be great if someone has a idea how to set it to portrait mode.
Thank you very much! Have a great day

We do indeed have HDR support, but it may be disabled by default and can only run on select apps.
1. Install a custom launcher like Nova or activities shortcut creator
2. Create an activities widget or gesture shortcut
3. Go to Settings
4. Find and select ’Video Enhancer’
5. Launch it and it will reveal the hidden setting
Alternatively, use the Magisk module HiddenSettings and modify the setting: hdr_effect 1
How to test if HDR is real:
Download an hdr video from 4kmedia.org. Change to full brightness and set screen mode to Adaptive. Hide navigation bar (use the quick shortcut). Play the video in the native video player. You'll then slowly swipe up on the Recents button, but without taking your finger off.
You should notice UI and graphics appear vivid. This indicates presence of gamma being applied. When you release your finger HDR is switched off. Saturation is a hue value, while gamma is brightness (how light or dark a pixel is). The real test would be to know if they are doing real-time processing, which is how actual HDR on TV works.
Hy is it possible doing this without using magisk ? or should we root the phone

Hello! I have the Ugoos UT8 Pro, android box. HDR only activates when watching an HDR video, but when the video is off, the screen goes back to SDR. This method you speak of, can it be done on my device to force enable HDR?

Is there a way to do it on sony xz2?
Sorry to post here. Couldn't find a sharp section.
I can't find accessibility settings on my sharp Android tv. Is the settings an app that can be installed? Or is it hidden or anything?
Any ideas?
Thanks
I have a sharp android tv and have had to use adb to enable secure settings for certain apps (button mapper for instance)
