After switching from ktoonesz kernel to agats kernel when I rebooted the colors of the screen look washed out and much less vibrant than usual? Ive tryed changing screen modes and it still looks weird any suggestions?

Probably something with the kernel colors. May be different. You can try using an app that'll let you fine tune them how you like. Such as trinity or voodoo.

Ktoonsez Kernel has Trinity Colours built in. That is why. By switching off of that kernel your new one either doesnt support it, or doesnt have it set to on by default.
Yeah I just switched to fauxs kernel and the colors are back to what I believe is normal lol.

Does anyone know of any kernel that supports reduced brightness anymore? Voodoo used to before it went all audiophile on us.
The screen brightness is raping my eyes and screen filter makes colours look horrid.
Even typing this is giving me a headache

Totally agree.... I am gonna try hardcore kernel soon
When I compare my GF's Epic's screen to my year plus old Vibrant, her screen definitely looks brighter and the colors just pop a little more. Both have the same settings. It's the same screen. The only difference is the amount of hours that the screen has been on. Do these screens just wear out over time?
It all depends on voodoo color can make it look better an if your on CM Gama really affects it a lot and yea I could just be your screen is dying do to it being oled

Find a rom that use the latest voodoo10 enhanced kernel. It truly is like night and day.

will check it out. Been on Asgard GB original version since it came out
Im using pa 2.55 utacka and when i flashed maxfu hydracore 7.5 I've changed the mdnie into natural mode and brightness level to 30%.thats it when i checked the gamma detection using display tester its 98% k.then there is no sign of black curse anymore.

Can you write a guide and some ss
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
Yeah, not entirely clear on what you did here. Do you have to be running hydracore to do this?
Effectively creating a filter or shifting the values outside the grey areas where the clipping occurs. To bad not all screens are the same
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk 2
What to do then? I installed the MaxFu 7.5 hydracore kernel and I noticed a heavier black clipping presence.
I'm on Asylum Phoenix with hydra 7.5.
This black clipping, is not related to gpu driver (I saw the new hydra kernel use new gpu drivers)? I was going to change the kernel with the CM original kernel.....
its hardware issue that can be remmedied eith software tweaks.
bit of a chicken and egg story, you can argue software issue as software tweaks arent prevailing there. However without the hardware issue to woukdnt need software tweaking
chicken egg etc

Was watching a review of 4.3 and the reviewer stated this version of Android seemed to really improve the colors/calibration of the N4 screen...
Anyone else notice this as well?...
°N4°
Yes its a known change that happened in 4.3 where they adjusted the colors.
I still prefer custom colors but it is definitely a improvement from 4.2.
Yeah I feel it's ok in my eye and I dont calibrate it

Same, they look mostly the same to me. Not great anyway, even if there is an improvement.
Look somewhat better...
I was taking some pictures yesterday and then held up my phone showing the picture I just took side by side with the real scene, the colours were very close.
I'm guessing a new thread is required for every single detail about 4.3 then?
I mean, it's not like there is a DISCUSSION thread for 4.3 out there already.
Oh, wait, there is? Hehe, silly me, right?
Looks better for me, screen is brighter also.

Wouldnt matter to me as i always flash franco anyway
Colors are the same for me as they were on 4.2.2, I don't see any difference.
N4, stock 4.3 + franco
I counted 7!! 7 threads about the same topic= OS 4.3!! Just, why would you do that?
same colors for me. no difference.
Placebo??
It's like a common syndrome in the iOS/Apple community. Every time after an update, people will tell you that "safari feels snappier"
I compared cloros on a device with 4.3 and 4.2.2 side by side. With same pictures displayed. I didn't notice any changes. The only changes I've noticed was by update from 4.2.1 to 4.2.2.
I don't know of its because I'm using to using franco.Kernel with custom colour settings, but when I briefly used 4.3 I couldn't see any difference.

I loaded up the new N7 wallpaper on my phone (4.3) and my wife's phone (4.2.2), both N4's, brightness at full and at auto. Findings were... They were EXACTLY THE SAME...
So, yeah, no difference... At least to my eyes.

ok, so try going to 0 percent brightness in a dark room and start like moving around the menus, or using Tapatalk.. do you notice it randomly gets more dim, or more bright, on its own correlating to how much stuff is on the screen? like, I was in the touch buttons display menu and as I moved up and down I noticed sometimes it's brighter, and sometimes it's darker. I think the dna kind of did this too but not as harshly as this.
it's not on auto brightness. I'm on 0, but i think I've noticed this at other levels as well. yeah confirmed i notice it ever so slightly on 40 percent. hard to notice since it's brighter, have to look close. easiest to see on 0.
care to give it a try and let me know?
Sent from my VS980 4G using Tapatalk 4
it seems like it gets brighter when there's more white on the screen. when there's more gray or darker colors, it gets dimmer. seems to do it consistently on Tapatalk when going from like a thread full of white background and then going back to my subscribed which is only like 3 things, so 3 little white backgrounds and the rest is gray.. so it's dimmer there.
Sent from my VS980 4G using Tapatalk 4
and when I pull the keyboard up to reply, I'm using a gray keyboard... so it gets dim bc the screen has more dark color on it.. when I drop it down, it's gone and the screen has more white so it's brighter haha
Sent from my VS980 4G using Tapatalk 4
I haven't noticed any dimness or brightness. I have noticed a flickering of sorts on my call icon and home screen wallpaper. Maybe I'm going nuts or maybe its my eyes...doesn't bother me if its happening. Interesting though.
Sent from my VS980 4G using Tapatalk 2
Maybe it has to do with that graphic ram thats on the display. They said its suppose to save battery. Honestly i thought ive seen this happening on a couple of review videos.
oh yeah? I'm wondering the same. at 0 brightness my dna would change brightness levels around and I noticed it often.. wasn't as hard of a change as the g2 though but perhaps you're correct with the gram!

It's called dynamic contrast and is present in all modern TVs and smartphones
Your TV set is probably CRT, hah?
I would think the constant change in brightness would mean sensors are constantly running and chewing up battery. But then again, I have no idea what I'm talking about

Lol u sound like me, then again i have no idea what im talking about. Yeah i was just guessing on the graphic ram. But i coulda swore on one of the vids i saw the phone was really bright and then it changed and was noticeably dimmer, let me see if i can find it, could have been auto brightness but in the same lighted area it was a huge change if it was. Do u have auto brightness on?
Mine almost flickers if I have auto brightness on,its very subtle but it's there

this. Maybe once its rooted we can find where that is defined... hopefully it is not something supper deep within the code and is something simple like a variable.

do you know the explanation as to why it does it? I'm glad it's not just my phone lol. what's the point? save battery?

My G Pro have same problem too.
But i notice when only watching movies, and not always. weird
Here is how it is disabled on Tegra 3 devices. I'm sure there is just an easy of a way for qualcomms chip... we just have to find it after we get rooted
can't wait for root!
btw, there was a secret menu for the att version where you could turn off the dimming when the phone got hot. if we could get that menu maybe we could turn that

I'm not sure if it's the same thing as dynamic contrast, but it also sounds similar to some content-aware brightness settings included in some ROMs.
Does auto brightness even work on this phone? I will pull down the notification shade, uncheck auto brightness, put the brightness all the way down, check the auto brightness box and it does absolutely nothing. Anyone else notice this?
Upon further review, if I go to settings and display settings and check the box from there, it seems to work. Maybe it's just broken in the pulldown notification shade?

Yes I felt the same. There is absolutely no change i noticed when i set the auto brightness. I just set it to 30% manually. Not sure if there is a issue with the sensor or just the software..
