Can the moto x active notifications be ported to the G2? - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just wondering if this is even possible? The black and white notifications on the moto x look so sleek.

If I'm not mistaken it wouldn't work right because this is an ips display. The moto x is an oled display. Difference is that the x can turn on just those individual pixels needed for that notification while the rest remain completely off. With ours, the whole screen would have to be lit up (although in black) which would make it drain far more battery.

You could use Knock2 which does almost the same. Although impact on Battery will be higher for sure.
But you can try it at least https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.knock.knock.demo

Dynamic Notifications works pretty good.

Thanks for the replies. I'll have to try out active notify and the dynamic notifications for now until I root and can install a custom rom.

Question on display, please

Sorry, on a black background you can see the glow of the light bulb as to form a stain?
I would not be just my problemi

It looks the same as every IPS monitor ever.
Great color, great brightness, but mediocre blacks when viewed from the side
If you mean light bleeding or bad panel uniformity, yes most (if not all) have that.
R: Question on display, please
And so the infiltration of light from the top of display is normal?

Yes it's normal on IPS screens. The degree that it "infiltrates" varies between devices. my First Nexus 4 had backlight bleeding that was more obvious then the replacement device I have now. The replacement's back light bleeding is barely noticeable.
I've owned various devices with IPS screens
Asus Transformer TF101 (I've handled about 5 different devices)
Asus Transformer Prime (handled about 3 devices)
Asus Transformer Infinity(handled just the one I owned)
LG G2X (Had multiple replacments)
Nexus 4
Nexus 7(handled 3: 2 32gb HSPA+ and 1 16gb Wifi)
All had some light bleeding to a certain extent or another. Some being much worse than others.
I have a RMA for a 3rd Nexus 4 (The one I have now I love, hardly any backlight bleeding and everything is great except there is this one dark vertical line from top to bottom of the screen that you can see on white/gray backgrounds. My original Nexus 4 didn't have any of that)
If my 3rd has worse backlight bleeding than the one I currently have I might just deal with the dark line on the screen on white/gray backgrounds on my current device as that's the ONLY thing that bugs me about it.

Zero brightness.

Just got a Nexus 4, works perfectly except for when i slide brightness down to minimum the screen goes off. Like complete black. Is this supposed to happen or a hardware defect? I'm running rooted stock. The only way to fix it was to do a factory reset.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
How Black is black. If this screen is completely black ie you cant read anything, in a dark room, then its a hardware defect. However the nexus 4 can really get dim and coming fro a gnex like you, it struck me too at first.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2
It's dim, but you should still be able to read it in an entirely dark room.
Please provide a snapshot.
Plus, set auto brightness that to on the most minimal level and you are good to go.
Its pitch black. Ill show a picture soon.

Optimus G screen Better

Hey I have an Optimus G along side my Nexus 4 and haven't been able to match the Optimus G screen colors with the Nexus 4.
They run the same hardware yet the G has a much nicer picture. It is even nicer than the HTC One's!
I have Franco. Kernel updater installed and have tried a few calibrations but to no avail. Is there any hope?
Ps don't flame me going on about how the Nexus is best, it is not.

Ah come one! try to be nice hahahaha. Actually LG has several software display adjustments not implemented on Nexus 4 due to Google.
May be some day they port it to Nexus 4. Nothing so far.

The Nexus 4's color's are a little washed out IMO, but since you have the Franko.Kernel updater, I'm going to assume you are rooted and have a custom kernel like Franco's or Faux's kernel. In that case, increase your saturation values in small increments until you're comfortable with those colors. If you're on stock kernel, I don't think you can expect too much, unless you flash one of PA's calibrated kernels.
Short answer: Yes there is hope. And there have been solutions to tackle this for quite a while. Just look around the dev forums.
Actually haha hope is diminished. The Optimus G has a higher ppi than the nexus 4. My friend just told me and it makes perfect sense because the Optimus G has a sharper screen.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Nexus4 is the best and the screen is vibrant with most custom kernels! Get over it or sell it.
Pretty sure they are the same screens, same ppi.
With the FKU app there are a whole set of example colour profiles, but you have to hit a menu item to load them up. You will probably be able to find one that you like, and then you can tweak it a bit further if you want.
Sent from my Nexus 4
The two phones have identical screens (In fact, most of the hardware is identical). The only difference is that the LGOG has different calibration. I don't know the exact calibration, but I know that the faux kernel has an option to set it to the OG calibration (LG presets). I just use the halfbreed calibration that I tweaked a bit on my Nexus, and it looks great
I'm not questioning your opinion on the colours but the screens are definitely the same model so you thinking the OG has a sharper display is probably just a placebo effect due to the colours. Since have the same displays you should really be able to match the colours using franco's app. Aside from the iPhone 5's screen I haven't seen a screen that has better colour reproduction than my N4's. Then again, I haven't seen a One or a OG yet either.
My eyes dont lie. Ive been using both and the Optimus G is more of a pleasure to use.

That may well be true, but I can guarantee that the OG's screen isn't sharper. Better calibrated maybe, but definitely not sharper.

Well about Nexus 4 VS Optimus G maybe Optimus G is better but the HTC One (Not One X) should have a way better screen...

While you may like the image better, sadly the eyes are the ultimate liars lol. I do home theater and HDTV calibration for a living, 10 years going...and I there isn't enough time in the day for me to tell you how horrible most people have their HDTV set when I get there, or while I'm calibrating ask why it isn't brighter or why did it look so much better in the store Lmfao. I always give the customer what they want but with the advice that having your screen at 9000k is not giving you the most true representation of the intended image but to each their own. I assure the same thing is happening here with your phone

Moto active display

So I just found out that the reason why Moto active display is so amazing is because it doesn't consume hardly any battery due to the amoled display only waking a few pixels. Is there any way we will see this on our phones since they use an amoled or is it dependant on the Motorola framework?

I think it's also dependent on the low power cores designed specifically for that feature.
You will not get Moto X branded features on your Galaxy 4. Period.
The only way it will happen is if someone other than youself makes it happen, on AOSP.
Cheers
I like the Google now always on feature where you can just talk and it responds. Any app that's going to be like that for the s4?

[Q] Is there a way to adjust the color calibration

I'm rooted on the i9505g and I'm having no luck finding a way to adjust the rgb color calibration of the display. The display appears too warm to my eyes and I would like to match the cooler display of my nexus 4. It's especially noticeable when I have a white background like in Google plus. Whites appear more yellow than pure white and it's driving me nuts. Thanks in advance for any help

Thanks but I already tried that and it doesn't seem to actually adjust the colors but instead it applies overlay of color
