Gallery App - Galaxy Note II General

Hi all! Has anyone else noticed when viewing photos or videos through the Gallery App that there's a noticeable difference in colour? Much like using Composite over RGB Scart, the colours appear to be washed out. It even affects other apps in Multi-Window too.

Anyone?

Go into Gallery, select any album, look at all photos within that album to get an idea of how they look, then start a sideshow. You'll notice the colours are a lot more vibrant during the slideshow (like they are when using any other app) compared to when viewing photos manually. Why is this?

Auto adjust screen tone based on images turned on in settings?

It was on, but there's still a noticeable difference. I'm using an unrooted GT-N7100, running 4.1.1. It's only when viewing photos/videos in the Gallery app and videos in the Video Player app, not navigating.

When you tap 'Start Slideshow,' you can actually see the colours change for a split second before the screen goes black and starts the slideshow. You can also see this in 'Crop.'

Most of the rom araond here are castom and working with the new gallery 4.2

In the default video player goto settings, check outdoor visibility off..
Then everything would look normal..

Black preview screen for photos and videos?

Anyone else's preview screen when taking pictures or videos is black? Why doesn't it show the viewfinder?
Also, I posted this question 2 hours ago but the thread was removed? What gives? If a thread is deleted at least PM the poster and explain.
Thanks everyone, this has seriously been bugging me and I'm not sure if it's a problem with my Note only.

I am not sure what you mean. Do you mean that when you tap on the camera app, it opens the camera interface, but you only see black? But when you click a photo, it comes out fine?
If so, it seems to be an issue with the software.
Yeah that's exactly it! Anyone else!?

I was always under the impression that was actually the design of that background image.
Hello.
Try that...
It will fix your problem.
It will work to any rom you have.

It is a default ugly background that appears in some settings/apps. It is the wrong choice of background as it makes the amoled black look like lcd black if you don't know it is the background.

Are you sure this only happens on that specific page? For me, it happens on all pages with that background.

Those apps have their own power saving/brightness controls.
Check the settings menu when you are inside those apps. I know for sure the stock browser has its own display settings that are independent of the system settings.
Hey mate thanks for the reply, now I'm starting to get a bit worried because even before I tinkered around with anything the color changed back to its normal hue, not sure what exactly is going on

Hey guys to anyone out there that is interested in what was going on, I actually found out that the power saving option on the galaxy note 2 turns the background color of the stock browser and the email and possibly a few more apps from white to a blue hue, mystery solved.......

homescreen wallpaper sucks

Has anyone figured out how to set a picture as wallpaper without it being all zoomed in and crappy looking? This is really annoying and the phone doesn't seem to have many options for fixing this

Use a HIGHER res picture! This will solve the issue!
I use the app "Wallpaper Wizardrii" and it usually solves all of my wallpaper woes.

This worked perfect thanks! I didn't think a 5mp picture from my old phone was too low of a resolution but also the stock photo crop tool when setting wallpaper sucks!
Use Wallpapyrus

Help Weird Scrolling

Hi. Is it normal to have this weird effects when you scroll through a dark/black background? For example Titanium Backup. Go through the app list page and scroll. There is this pinkish blur effect thing going on. It's not present in all apps like settings, my files and etc. Just some apps like Themer and TB with dark backgrounds.
Please do respond so I can remedy my screen if it's broken or something lol. Thanks!
Yes, it's normal when on low brightness, S4 did the same thing.
