Screen color calibration

This is something I wanted to bring up for quite some time. Comparing the TF's IPS display to that of a GTab 10.1 or an iPad, the colors on the TF display clearly seem washed out. Since we have the kernel source right now, is it possible for developers to include an option to calibrate the color saturation on the display ?
I see many such color calibration apps for other Android phones, but was just wondering if the kernel source itself is enough to do this for the TF ?
Appreciate other comments on this issue.

tried to use the universal one here but it just forceclosed

I recall supercurio's voodoo kernels incorporated some kind of color fix for galaxy s phones. Maybe we will see something similar coming to the transformer soon?

Is this just an issue with random tf's? I ask cause my screen is beautiful. Watching futurama in HD on my Tf is beautiful. I can't even imagine a better display.

mine is fine as well, i just wanted to mess around with the color calibration, but since my screen is pretty much alright im not that worried about getting the app to work. The tab 10.1 over saturates the color to unrealistic levels. The TF is actually very well calibrated as far as color accuracy, being a photographer i appreciate the TF's more realistic color.

I fully agree with you. I had the 10.1 and the Transfomer together for a couple days. The colors are more natural on the Transformer. At ~90% brightness the TF is a better looking display to me.

my asus transformer prime has a yellowish tint screen
Hi,
I have craved for an asus transformer prime tablet since it was released, i had to save a lot just to finally buy it.
But i feel very disappointed becuase from the day i bought it, i realised its screen has a more yellowish tint, which doesnot match up all the reviews on the TFP i read on major sites like CNET and Engadget.
Please help me out ( what can i do to adjust the hue or is there a software update that can fix it), so that i can enjoy the prime as many others do.
I was surprised mine came already packed with ICS V 9.4.2.21-20120323

Post in the prime forum, they may be able to help you there: http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1465
As far as the OG transformer, I'll look into it, but I don't know how it'd be done.

Display Qualität

Fresh owner of a TF300T coming from an Ipad, since both are IPS Panels im kind of disappointed with the Transformers.
The colours are pretty much washed out and the white is dominating the contrast, its quite a difference to the Ipad.
Can anybody confirm that this is by design, or is it just my personal perception?! Or maybe I've got a faulty device?

I don't notice this issue my angry birds looks as good as the ipad or iPhone. I have a fairly subdued color scheme otherwise though.

I'll need some more time with the device to be able to say something thoughtful about it, though perhaps I can hook up a colorimeter and give you a scientific measurement..

I have noticed a "washed out" effect on mine as well, but only in two circumstances:
1) When setting the tab to "Power Saving" mode
2) When using Splashtop, either the built-in version or THD

I own both a TF300 and a TF101 and the display on the TF300 does appear a little washed out compared to my TF101.

Totally agree, display quality seems below tf101 and way below the new ipad. highly noticeable. While is not terrible, it's pretty disappointing specially coming from a $400 device($550 total spent w/ dock plus taxes), same as tf101 when was released. tf101 blows away the tf300t regarding quality construction, including the "IPS" screen.
add those cons to the tf300t browser issues, some game compatibility issues with tegra 3 SoC, unexpected app and games shutdowns, occasional flickering on some games and what you got?

Exactly ...the display color on mine is very washed out as well...You Tube Videos and CNN Videos which I just tried today are dismal...Im very dissapointed...I wanted to compare to the 201...but none in the Best Buy...or anywhere else for that matter...Im goin back to compare to other tablets to see the difference...Might go for the 201...I can do an exchange in 30 days...Unless there is a way to adjust these colors...I luv basically everything else about it...Only had it for two days...So we'll see...

Some of the Primes also have washed out colors, especially if you get a warm tone one. The last one I had was cool tone and had excellent colors.

Oh...so theres cool tone ones...Somthin I didn't know ...Back to the BB and have them open a few to see the difference...I definitley want the 300...just not one with colors that suck...Thats why I wanted to compare it to a 201...Saw the videos on You Tube...with side by side comparison ...But you can't really tell much when watchin it on a PC...

Yep very noticeable...Like I said my CNN and You Tube Videos...Are blurred and washed out...
I didn't catch this in the Store...Picked it up Monday ...started playin around with it yesterday and today...Never had a Tablet before...Just Smartphones and of course Laptops and PC's...But the colors on my Samsung Epic 4g Touch pop...That screen is amazin...So far very let down with this screen...as far as Color Display...
Takin it back on the weekend and have them show me a few more to see if this is just a bad one or not...I don't want the Ipad or Acer...But I watched Smackdowns on YT between the 300,201 and the Acer 500 and there wasn't a real bad complaint from anyone about the color on the 300 just the brightness...Im satisfied with the brightness on this one but color ...Forgetabout it...
Im hopin its a bad one...the 700 won't be out to June...Didn't really want to wait...This looked like a good deal...Ill just have to wait and see what happens on the weekend...Their (BB) return policy is great

This thread and other comments about the TF300's display piqued my curiosity, so I stopped in at Best Buy to check it out. This BB had a TF300 and a TF101 side by side, so it was easy to do a comparison to the 101, which I already own and am familiar with.
I set the brightness to max on both tablets and loaded the same websites on each, showing a mix of text and color graphics. The display on the 101 looked exactly as I would expect. The difference was that the 101 was notably brighter than the 300, and probably for that same reason the white background to the text was whiter and the colors a bit more pronounced. I'm not sure how much of an issue that would be if I were looking only at the TF300, since it's still a nice screen, but seeing them side by side I would personally prefer the screen on the 101.

Reds aren't really red, kind of washed out orangey red, blues are pale. It's especially noticable with Asus tree wallpaper, the clouds kind of blend into the sky. It's almost like water colors but not quite that bad.
The 300 i'm on now has very nice colors, almost perfect to real life, took some pictures and held my 300 next to the object and it was pretty close to what I saw in real life.
My panel is also cool in color tone, so all the ones I've seen with warm screens are kind of washed out, the ones with the cool tone panels have better color IMO.

All seems good on my end...

Thanx for the replies...Went back to BB yesterday...Finally got to see the 201 in the flesh...when compared to the 300 that was next to it, It blew it away for pic quality and video quality...I definitley saw the difference...I like the 300 don't get me wrong...But my 300 had a problem with display in my opinion...Now the 300 I saw there looked better than mine but not better than the 201...Just my opinion...So I returned mine forked over the $127 more countin tax...and Im a Happy Camper...

Nexus 7 IPS screen

I don't know if its me, the device or just the screen. Cause my IPS screen on my nexus 7 is just not beating my Samsung galaxy s2,3 and my galaxy nexus's super amoled screen. The colors on the IPS just looks so washed out and plain if you compare it to a screen that has super amoled. Anyone done this yet? Compare the colors? Cause the screen just makes a huge difference lol. Unless my nexus 7 is defected.... I think it would have been a lot better if it was made by Samsung instead of Asus. Samsung super amoled just kills any other screens

No you wouldn't. If the N7 was sub 500....I wouldn't touch it I doubt the swarm thats attacking it would either. That's what sets it apart its price.
Its too barebones IMO to be that much. Plus build quality isn't up to par. (Glass isn't scratch resistant, Crap speakers, Flickering, At least a option for a Cell radio ect) all my opinion.
I even noticed a slight burn in too....

It's higher resolution, but low brightness. Consider yourself a Best Buy salesman's dream customer.

Its ok for me bu not the best, but it can be fjxed with a future kernel(s). On the nexus there is franco and trinity kernel. With them i cn adjust colour
Red

There is gamma adjustment
And contrast adjustment.
With all of these you can get your personal setting. It wont be long before we start to see ths kind of stuff for the n7.

These kinds of adjustments are only possible on AMOLED screens.

Super amoled screens are not the best.

Tegra 3 has some battery saving feature called PRISIM/DIDIM which boosts colors/contrast in order to reduce backlight consumption. There doesn't appear to be a way to disable it. When I watch a movie for 30 secs or so and return to the home screen I notice that the boosted colors/contrast still remains until I power off the screen. I hope Nvidia and Google make the feature optional by way of a firmware update. Other than that the tablet is quite decent.

Am I the only one who isn't keen on the superamoledplusomgwtfbbq screens?
After using my N7 and going back to my GS2 I think it looks way too over saturated and just a little bit ridiculous. I much prefer the screen on this, amoled screens to me look like when you're photoshopping a picture and accidentally slip while adjusting the saturation and set it to max.

The Nexus 7 uses the same beautiful, amazing screen as the 3rd generation iPad. The N7 has a lower native resolution obviously, but the underlying technology is identical between both devices.

Not at all. If you compare colour contrast and saturation between the two, you'll notice that the Nexus 7 looks much less vibrant than the new iPad.

This should simply be because the new iPad has a higher pixel density than the Nexus 7. Higher pixel densities lead to higher color saturation since there's less empty space between the pixels and more colorful pixels to fill that space. The underlying screen technology should still be the same (IPS).

I really don't like the amoled screens. Their colour accuracy is just horrible. Cracking the saturation to 11 does not make a screen good. The amoleds on S2s that I've seen have all kinds of horrible colour casting. White is a sort of blueish colour. Give me a decent IPS panel any day of the week.
I've always been a bit fussy about colour accuracy. Calibrize is a good little programme for the PC that lets you get the colours roughly right.

This thing is competing with the Kindle Fire and whatever they bring out. It's a "Play Store" device, pushing magazines and books. It's perfect for it's purpose.
Open up a book on this thing and it looks great. Crisp and sharp text, even if the home screen does look a little under saturated.

Agreed, Home screen is is not well saturated. Netflix and several other apps look very well saturated. I would say its pretty typical for IPS.
Nothing beats amoled for contrast/blacks though.

App for color calibration?

Hi!
im going to get the N10 in the next week and the first thing i will do because im a color junkie is a calibration test so se how close/far it is from
reference.
i have been into hardware calibration for displays for some years so i see myself as a pro.
i have X-Rite Display 3 Colorimeter and Chroma Pure calibration program.
http://www.chromapure.com/
the test patterns i use is from AVSHD709
http://www.avsforum.com/t/948496/avs-hd-709-blu-ray-mp4-calibration
i have already calibrated my LG Infinia LED TV to reference quality,so if only the right (ISF/CMS) settings is there i can calibrate any display to near reference quality.
but its all about the settings how much you can change.
so the question is:
is there a App that i can change the RGB values and saturation/hue also gamma settings?
or do i need to get a custom rom?
i know some custom roms for the SG2 has some screen/gamma adjustments in EX tweaks.
if its not i will still post the results from the calibration so you can check it out to see how good/bad calibrated the Nexus 10 is
Edit: i just found one
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=745248
but i need this for the N10

Theres an app in the play store called Screen Adjuster that allows to change RGB, contrast, brightness but requires root. Been wanting to try it but I cant root my tablet as my pc wont recognize my tablet in fastboot.

Apps on the market only apply a filter on top of the screen. You're going to want a kernel with proper color calibration support to prevent performance loss.

thanks for the link
interesting
damn the Nexus 10 is WAY off in the Gamut Chart!
how the hell can they release a screen thats is so off?
surley needs some calibration there
fix a kernel with RGB adjustments and i will fix a calibration that is better than on the iPad4.
after that you can just copy the settings and BOOM you have a reference display.
(that is if the screens dont differ to much)
i have the tools and the Knowlegde to calibrate displays but zippo knowlegde in hacking kernels
so Kernel Experts
MAKE IT HAPPEND!
Edit: first thing you will start with is the grayscale
when the grayscale is right (whites is white and not blue) then automatic you have your 6500k color temp (6500kelvin is messured from daylight in california if someone wants to know)
Also the Gamut is adjusted in position.
so its easy
with a correct grayscale everything (almost) else becomes right on spot.
one setting that they dont test there is Gamma
gamma at 2.2 is important if you want to see all details in darker parts of movies or photos.
gamma is adjusted with all three sliders Red/Green/Blue locked
So what i need is RGB adjustments and Saturation/HUE adjustments if its possible
comon hackers
we must beat the iPad!

If you want to have ICC support in kernel you've to ask a kernel dev. But I don't think that someone will implement this feature. Because the majority of users doesn't know or care about correct colors.
As the test results of your linked page show the N10 reaches a "good" neutral in white, gray and black. But the contrast is very low and by calibrating and profiling it you'll reduce it more. You've to calibrate D65 at 120 - 140 cd and after this to write a correction profile especially for blue and violet tones.
Apple does such things because their customers want to have and need good colors. But I don't see a market for android users. Photoshop touch is crap and there is no other "real" graphics suite / app. Given gamut is okay for daily use, e.g. viewing movies and surfing around the web.
So, don't be disappointed if your wish to cailbrate and profile the N10 won't be possible at all. An google seems not to have plans for ICC support in android, see https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!topic/android-developers/Ifnsdbkqxqo

The only thing that really seems off is that it has very washed out purples. Its fine other than that. It strange as it can display blue and red just fine.

Fortunately a lot of devs seems to think different seeing the amount of stuff they've coded that average Joe doesn't know or care about.
I for one would love to see the OP succeed as i see nothing wrong with getting better colour accuracy on my N10.

I personally really hope that a color calibration app/kernel becomes available.....devs PLEASE make it happen!! I like the punchy (albeit 'ficticious') colors of the amoLED display on my Galaxy Note....Please devs, give us the option to control/enhance the color of the Nexus 10's screen!

Another shout for some calibration tools on the nexus 10. All my main displays are calibrated & it's quite a shock to pick up my nexus 10 & the see the washed out colours

Indeed, the guy who mentioned the fact that the average Joe doesn't care about color reproduction is forgetting the fact that not a single one of us here is an average consumer, I also own an iPad 3 and I really loathe the washed out look on our display, the iPad looks very similar to the calibration I have on my Sony TV while the nexus looks almost like a color less gray when its put beside them, they all look like crap when you put them besides my SGS 2 though, all I really need to be completely happy with my Nexus would be a way to calibrate our screens, I have already pretty much given the iPad to my little sister but I hate to admit that the colors there look much much better than on the Nexus.
And by loathe I mean that I completely hate and despise it, such a great display ruined by the damn color calibration, the option should be built into Android for ****s sake.
PLEASE devs make it happen, color calibration seems to be an issue shared between all of the recent Nexus devices, for example, the screen on the Nexus 4 doesn't look as good as the one on the LG Optimus G (Or so I've read)

It's a shame Google are apathetic on this issue. Users that want do photo work are forced to go to Apple. Small OT aside: It's the same deal with audio creation apps/interfaces, Google doesn't care. I'd rather set my sites on Ubuntu.

Another vote for getting some kind of good calibration tool for the N10. I can put up with a lot, but the black levels are killing me. I would even put up with some loss of detail if I could get better black levels.

So... Guys, how can we contact Google to ask them to fix this themselves or do something so we can fix it ourselves?

Nah, the screen on the Nexus 4 doesn't look as good as the one in the Optimus G and the screen on the 7 is kind of washed out from what I've read, and from past experience I've seen that Samsung tends to calibrate their screens pretty nice, (albeit a bit saturated) on factory settings across all devices.

Hope someone can sort out the black levels, watching movies the blacks look grey specially with Dark Knight! Tried all sorts of things but nowt helping!

It's a shame for Google not calibrating any of their screens. Nexus 4 has those ugly washed colors, same with the nexus 10. And black levels, despite as many synthetic tests you will post (anandtech etc) are quite bad.
I'm so sure this is software... and 0 upgrades from Google. Its ok they will push next version of android as soon as avaliable, but nothing else, no OTAs for bug fixing. Any other brand would have already pushed several upgrades to new devices, bugs appear and samsung, htc etc gives you solutions (not always, but...)

Color Saturation & Accuracy.

Excuse my ignorance, but how great of a screen is the N7 supposed to be in comparison to some of the higher end smartphones out there in terms of color reproduction and saturation?
I have the HTC One, and side by side comparisons of the same image makes the N7 look washed out and bland.

That remains to be seen until LaptopMag or Displaymate or someone with the tools can accurately measure it, but reviews so far point out that both brightness and colors are very good on the device.

It's pretty good on par with iPad 4 according to Anandtech and Apple is known for having good calibration. But then again, just a matter of time when we can calibrate it ourselve like the Nexus 4.

I agree with you completely. I have an HTC One X and immediately thought the 2013 N7 looked pale in comparison. Hopefully there's some resolution in the future.

I have a Note 8 and a Nexus 7.
On colors with green elements displayed on the Nexus 7, the entire photo takes on a distinct greenish hue. The black level on the N7 is not very dark, either.
I set up both tablets on the floor, mounted a camera on a tripod over them and took photos.
Attached are some detail shots of flowers and our dog showing the green wash and the bright blacks. I certainly hope that this is something which can be addressed in software.

I would definitely want to look at the N7 side by side with something else at the shop before buying one, or else be ready to return it if you have trouble with the color accuracy once you get one home.
Not everyone will care, of course.
But what I've seen in reviews is that brightness is good but color is not very accurate, not that both are good.

roustabout,
thank you for that.
that proves my point from other threads, the N7 screen is not properly calibrated yet again.

Overall, it seems pretty good to me. I compared it to my Spyder calibrated IPS monitor and the colors were fairly close.

They managed to bake it because LG left some display colors related things in the kernel. That said I would like to see if asus made the same thing for this device. (hopefully)

The view angles and color are excellent on it. Much better than the first nexus 7 and a million times better than the nexus 4.

That's what I've found: it looks a lot better than my Nexus 7 2012. I think it gets slammed a lot for being "bland" since most of the smartphones like to oversaturate their displays (I'm looking at you, Samsung). I have a really good IPS monitor for my computer, and it seems to fit in quite well with it, and it makes my Galaxy S4 screen look like a colorful kid's toy.

Pretty sure the issue with the first generation nexus 7 was that nvidia didn't provide a way to set these things. Qualcomm I believe does so the odds are pretty good. I personally like the stock calibration though. The first time I think its been good on a nexus device. The panel itself is much better than the nexus 10 and nexus 4 as well. Much wider view angles.
