ROMs and screen sunlight visibility - Nexus One General

I noticed that when using Desire ROM the screen was more readable under direct sunlight, I am using now Enom 1.8.1 with full brightness and it's 20% less readable...
I am crazy or not?

It might be due to the color scheme they use. You can see vivid colors better than darker ones.

I notice the difference too when I was running Desire rom.

galaxy s II display contrast

Hello.
Anyone else noticed that the display is lower quality than sgs ?
I mean in terms of gamma.
I am a photographer and I was amazed how good the contrast and brightness f the first galaxy was, however this one seems to have way too big contrast, making everythig that is dark much darker, giving a fake and strange appearence.
Also the auto brightness in general is lower than sgs.
Does somebody know if it can be tweaked through a kernel recompile, like sharpness and color in voodoo ?
Go to options-->display-->uncheck automatical screen power adjustme(don't know the exact english term, got it in dutch). I bet it is this again...
Let me know... you're not the first one.
No, it's not that but thanks
It's the actual gamma of the driver I think
However I did notice there is now a "background effects" that can adjust saturation and hue so there is access to the drivers. Maybe a bunch of new effects added there like "classic gamma, normal saturation..."
I came from the captivate, and ran just about every rom that was out there. One of the ubiquitous mods was the color fix. I noticed when I first booted the SGS2 up, the color was off (in relation to my expectations) sure enough in display settings there was an option to change it. Without looking I believe it's called "cinema", which perfectly returned that color richness I loved.

there is something wrong with auto brightness , it doesnt work very well , but its not true that SGS 2 has a lower quality display than sgs , Super AMOLED Plus displays are an upgrade to Super AMOLED. They use a real-stripe subpixel matrix and not pentile - and so has 50% more sub-pixels. The PPI is a bit larger but Samsung will soon make them at much higher resolutions. Super AMOLED Plus displays are also thinner, brighter and use 18% less energy than the older Super AMOLED displays.

Display Brightness Auto Levels - What do you use?

I always thought the auto levels on my phone (galaxy nexus) were too low at night or in the dark in general.
I changed mine to the following...Anyone have any tips on better levels? I find this leaves the screen brighter at night, and increments more evenly vs stock and hopefully saves some battery being its not at full brightness until its in super bright sunlight.
0=60
6=60
9=60
14=60
20=60
30=60
46=100
68=100
103=100
154=100
231=130
346=130
519=130
778=130
1168=175
1752=175
2627=210
3941=210
5912=225
8867+=225

I have definitely had to adjust them on all my devices. On my N4(mako)* I turned them way down at low levels and way up at high levels. On my N7(flo) I had to lower them across the board.
There are so many variables: personal preference, the environment in which you use your device, the hardware of your screen, the age of your device (some screens get dimmer as they get older), and the response curve of the lux sensor in your device. Thank science we can customise it.

sRGB vs. RGB

It's a new feature in N and from what I can tell it noticeably lowers the saturation levels of the OLED to more of an LCD style. I've always preferred LCDs over AMOLEDs simply because they look more natural in color accuracy. What do you guys think and has anyone settled on one specific mode or are u switching based on the screen content?

Its not a new feature on the 6p. We've had an srgb option forever.
I personally use ex kernel and tweak saturation to around 22. The srgb mode is too desaturated on my screen.

Which screen calibration setting are you using?

I'm curious to see what most people are using for the screen calibration setting on their OP5, I'm currently using DCI-P3.
I'm using the Default. Whites are a lot whiter and colours seem to be more vibrant than DCI-P3.
Default here aw well. sRGB looked a bit washed out and DCI-P3 too warm.
DCI-P3 here. Stock is too cool (whites appear blue) and over-saturated. I tend to prefer more accurate colors.

I don't prefer any if them, after every 2 or 3 days I switch the preset.
sRGB has more real like colour. Default is most saturated of them, DCI-P3 warmer and less saturation compared to default.
After owning a pixel 2 xl, i had to switch all my devices to srgb everything else looks insane. Like colours were taken out of a teenage girls wardrobe. Waaaay too bright, waaaay too loud

Solution for bright screen on Pixel Experience ROM

When viewing the screen in the dark with brightness at minimum and night light on, the brightness is still too high and causes me eye strain, I wish the 'smart pixels' feature was included in this rom as it would be the perfect solution.
Anyway can anyone point me towards a good app or module to lower the brightness to a more tolerable level?
Thanks
