hi all, looking for a rom for my N7 that can change the display to only display red for when i use sky safari on it while out stargazing. (red helps protect night vision) on my nexus one with CM7 it has render effects settings screen where you can change the color of the whole os to basic colors etc. any roms out for the N7 that can do this globally as well? and before you say it yes sky safari has this feature inside, problem is unlock screen does not as well as say accidentally hitting home etc. one bright flash of white light and you loose dark adaptation for 5-10 even 20 min so its kind of important and most people go the easy simple route of putting red cellophane on their screens, but if i can get around that and i know its possible to i would like to.

google skymap has a night view mode built in.

apparently sky safari has a night view mode built in also, look for it in the settings.

yeah sky safari has it, and it also has a setting to keep the device from sleeping because the problem is the lock screen and any other screen you might accidentally pull up will not be a dim red light and will instantly damage night vision if pulled up. anyways i rooted my N7 and took at look at a few roms and so far have not found one with this feature. looks like it was put into CM7 for the potential power savings due to the screen on the nexus one as well as many other phones being AMOLED. on tablets with LCD's theres no savings to be had so nobody's implemented it into a JB rom so far.
Tasker might do what you need. You make a profile to do things like dim screen brightness, change wallpapers, dim/kill LED notifications, etc. Set it to trigger when you open your Skymap app & your light sensor senses that it is dark (I don't know what that setting looks like).
This app has astronomers moder for the red tint.

Hoping to get feedback on user experience with the Mediapad M3. I have not seen a post for this and just purchased US m3 64GB - waiting on delivery.
It would be great to hear from you on the following:
- Are you pleased with the purchase?
- Country
- 32 or 64GB, LTE
- Stock or custom ROM
- Expanded storage size
- What you like most about the device.
- In reading through threads here, seems most everyone loves the hardware and build quality.
- Firmware updates have corrected issues seen early. Settings adjustments and launchers help too.
- 5ghz works if device is rooted and file tweaked
- Unlocking and rooting are possible but not as clean as we've seen with other devices. Untrusted screen popup on boot is annoying.
I will likely use stock and be hawkish for updates and would appreciate your insight.
Thanks in advance.
John
Just recently bought this and had it for an hour.
Compared to a couple of other tablets I own, I'm blown away by the sound quality so far (Its really loud..)
Located in USA 64GB on Stock rom latest update.
The main feature I look for in tablets is the expanded storage so it's a plus.
I like the size, weight wise it's not so bad, screen is bright indoors (Some people say it's not enough)
I'm saddened that this device isn't really popular, it doesn't have custom roms or kernels but I can make do with it with what ever it has. Besides that I have a OP3 power horse for anything else.
As the name suggest for this tablet it'll literally be only for media like books, manga, videos, and music(?).
You won't be disappointed and will be more eager to use it when it hits EMUI 5.0 and it's Nougat update :]

Thanks for the response! Great insight.
Did you get the firmware update when booted up or did you have to check for updates? I agree on Nougat and EM5. Come quick. ?
I have had Nexus devices since GNexus. Nexus 5, 7, 10, 6, 9 and 6p. Of these, the Nexus 9 had been the most disappointing by far performance wise. The sound is decent for movies and videos. However, been waiting for the right replacement and do hope this is it.
Thanks again.

It already had the update when I got it. Bought it used (like new) on Amazon. It's really snappy and kinda big for my small hands but a better keyboard fixed that right up. Using thumb keyboard and the layout fits very nicely when typing in either horizontal or vertically.
Performance wise you just need to switch it over to performance mode and you can forget about it being sluggish.
Have been looking at this as a replacement for my Samsung Galaxy Tab Pro 8.4 whose battery is slowly failing. The specs look great but the lack of development is kind of concerning, I love trying new roms on my android devices.
I've looked at the root and twrp threads and it looks like things have progressed to the point I can be confident of having a rooted device I can take nandroid backups of. As long as I can have root and put Action Launcher 3, TB, and the other basics on it I should be happy.
Now I just have to debate whether an extra $50 for the 64gb version is worth it considering I'm coming from a device with 16gb.

1. Yes. Very little traction on development. Would love to see this pick up.
2. Good progress on rooting. Wonder what the unlocked warning page looks like...but only want to see it once.
3. Action Launcher 3 is great & I will install even before rooting. I run Action 3 on my 6P.
4. Spend the $50 - you get a headset and twice the storage.
Mine arrives today. I will post feedback once I give it a spin. If the IMUI 5/Nougat beta program is open, I will register.
Too loud

It is loud indeed, unfortunately too loud for me. The lowest volume is the same as 50% on my Galaxy S6.
I've tried Fine Volume Control V2, which works great on my phone. But on the M3 you have to open the app itself to adjust the volume. Using the volume rockers resets the volume level.
Is there any other apps I can try? Thinking about returning it and wait for WMC.
Hi,
I'm also interested in buying this tablet, but I have some concerns:
1. I will be using the tablet 100% in landscape mode. Can I lock the rotation to landscape (*without* third party apps)?
2. In landscape mode, is the navbar to the right instead of bottom? Can it be changed to bottom in the settings?
3. I saw that it supports gestures on the fingerprint reader. Can the navbar be disabled in the settings, so only the gestures can be used? Can *both* be disabled (since the fingerprint reader is right where you hold it in landscape and it will get accidentally pressed) so I can use a third party pie control?
4. Is the lowest brightness low enough so you can use it at night without any problems (and *without* software filters)?
5. At the lowest brightness, does it flicker? Using a white background / picture, when you wave your hand / finger, is it continuous or "framed"? See https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ru474L8N15w
6. Can all versions be rooted & TWRP installed, or only the US version? I will buy it in Europe. Can Xposed be installed?
Thanks.

This might not be the tablet for you if not rooted with ROM. Others may know differently but this is what I have found.
1. Landscape locking: if you use a launcher like Action 3, you can lock in landscape. However, this does not lock stock settings menu.
2. Landscape horizontal nav bar: no but you could turn them off. This is a phone OS with little thought of limiting phone centric features.
3. Disabling nav bar and finger print gestures: you can turn each off independently but not at the same time.
4. Brightness or dimming are fine. Low setting is low.
5. No flicker at lowest setting.
6. See the post of rooting devices. I think all can be rooted. Unsure about Xposed.
There's also a built in pie type control.
I pulled the trigger on the 64gb version today. It's $20 off at newegg this weekend and my son had given me a newegg gift card for xmas. Bought what looks like an ok case on amazon - will be looking to see if seidio/trident/otterbox come out with one in the future.
Now just have to wait for my new toy to arrive .

You are probably talking about the home screen orientation, which for most launchers is by default locked to portrait.
But are you saying that, if you hold it in landscape, the Android settings is still in portrait?

Correction: Actually, system settings display in landscape. I had the portrait screen orientation setting locked.
If you don't have security enabled, does touching the fingerprint sensor when the screen is off turn it on?

But can you lock the orientation to landscape? Or it behaves like a (giant) phone: either auto-rotate, or just portrait?

You can turn off the fingerprint ID so that it does not unlock and wake. However, the fingerprint touch pad continues to allow gestures once unlocked. I have not found a way to turn off security. I think I read you need to root before you can do this.

I'm not talking about the home screen (which is launcher dependent), but the "global" orientation.
For example, you're holding it in landscape with auto rotate on. Open Chrome. Swipe the notification shade, go to toggles, then toggle auto rotate off. Does Chrome remain in landscape, or it switches to portrait?

The button in the only has two options, auto rotate or portrait. So it locks both the homescreen and apps to portrait like lots of phones do.
Had the same problem with my old Galaxy Tab 7.7 and had to use an app to fix it.

@finduz answered this as I understand it.
I don't know if it's just me, but I was previously using the app midnight to dim my phone at night & had no issues.
It appears with Oreo, that the status bar & when you pull down the status bar don't change with the screen.
So while the screen is only set to say 30%, the status bar & nav bar are full brightness. Again, I don't recall this issue
with 7.1.2
Is anyone successfully using an app that actually dims everything with Oreo, & if not, is this an issue with Oreo?
Thanks!
I am having this issue with my device and it's driving me crazy. I did not have the issue with Nougat, but in Oreo none of the apps work on the status bar and notification shade. This is exacerbated by the fact that the notification shade is blinding white now instead of dark gray so it lights up the room when I pull it down at night in the dark.
I normally use the app "Darker Pro," but I tried about five different screen dimming apps last night and they all have the exact same issue so I think it's an Oreo thing. I also used to use the app Snap Swipe Drawer and noticed that I can no longer activate it from swiping on the notification bar. I think Oreo is not allowing anything to draw over the status bar or notification shade area.

Exactly! The notification bar is extremely white which just furthers the issue. The white was a poor choice in my opinion and is hideous.
I've tried 2 other apps & no luck. Plus many don't get updated.
I emailed the developer of Midnight & he said it would be a priority, so that's good.
I'm glad someone else uses these apps. I was beginning to think everyone enjoyed being blinded by their phone at night.

I don't understand the issue... Just dim your display normally using the brightness slider. Everything gets dim that way.
If you want a working night mode too (blue light filter), flash the o pixel mod in the themes section and use that too.
Or even f.lux would work if you have root.
This is a complete non-issue because dimming the display works 100% without any 3rd party apps.

The issue isn't the fact you can't dim the display as we all know you can move the slider.
It's night mode apps only dimming the screen itself & not the notification bar. You may have your brightness in night mode to really dark, but pull down the status bar & it's 100% bright. This issue didn't exist on 7.1.2 with these apps. I was specifically using Midnight with 0 issues.
I'm not rooted, so no flashing. Also there was no need before O as these issues didn't exist.

Well it sounds like the app needs to be updated to work on Oreo properly.
One of the reasons there are dev preview is for developers to test their apps on the new Android update and it would seem that this dev didn't do that.
Can I ask why you don't just use the brightness slider? It's one of the simplest things to do if you want your screen dim.

Because it isn't dark enough at night and early in the morning when I like my eyes to adjust. If it went darker as part of stock Android, it would eliminate the need for these apps.
Personal preference. My wife can't see crap & has to have the brightness on her phone up even at night. Drives me nuts & blinds the crap out of me.

Okay gotcha, makes sense.
Hopefully they update that app soon then.
If I come across any other app similar to that, I'll mention it in this thread then
I've been using f.lux and that seems to be working OK with Oreo.
I used Twilight Pro when I was on DP4 and while it worked, it did have the persistent blinding overlay notification. You can manually mute that for 2 hours tops at a time or there is a way to keep it muted with Tasker. https://www.xda-developers.com/hide-app-running-background-notification-android-oreo/
Does your app provide administration rights capability? There would be an entry in device administrators for your app [name]. For example, I use Bluelight Filter and if I want to use full dimming capability, including overlay, I have to give admin permission. The trade off being that some Android security lock features are disabled - such as locking Android pre-boot with a password.
It's been posted in another topic, but as far as "muting" the messages about background notifications in Oreo, this is a new Android security feature with no workaround yet and you can only set it to a low priority for notifications. At least that way it will minimize to one line when there are other app notifications, and remove the icon from the status bar.

Where are you finding device admin for bluelight? I had it installed, didn't work, but reinstalled trying to find what you stated, but no luck.
I've got a device admin apps settings, but it isn't listed.
Sent from my Nexus 6P using Tapatalk
Sorry it's not device admin, it's accessibility. My bad. This is the permission that's required for notifications and screen overlay being dimmed. It's a trade-off. So far I don't use it because I prefer enhanced encryption.
What I loved about my screen dimming app is that it did so automatically at set times and precisely to the right level. The brightness is now at daytime strength the first time I turn it on at bedtime and too dark when i first need it in the morning, not to mention fiddling with the slider to get it just right. Is there another way to schedule the brightness levels?
Still no one with luck with this?
Once it's a cross-device problem, why not move the thread to a general forum?

Did you find a fix for your problem?
Personally I am rooted ONLY for the night mode included on the pixel 2 mod. Furthermore, I was looking for a way to only have the night mode w/o any other pixel feature but couldn't find a way.
I know you said you aren't rooted and I can guess your unwillingness to do so, but honestly that's the best way to get a properly working night mode.
Take into acct. that I've tried a lot of apps and none were satisfactory. As I said before, this is the only reason I'm rooted.
Anyways, I hope you found a way to get a night mode working on your phone.
Any success? Really would like 100% overlay coverage including notifications, everything.
If you web browse at night you can invert the screen colours, which helps a bit until you hit a 'dark' image
I use Darker Pro and yes I can confirm that the status bar and notifications/qs panel does not get darker on oreo.
I used the same app all the time with nougat and it worked flawless.
It is a android oreo issue. Google has disabled apps to draw over system ui elements in oreo, that's what the darker pro playstore description says. I initially thought we need root to enable it. I've been trying to search for root apps that would let me do it but no luck there either.
Alright. I got a bit of a Work around. You will need root. Install Kernel Adiutor and go to Screen option. Now lower the Red, Green and Blue values equally. The screen will get dimmer.
I know this isn't as convenient as using a simple app, but atleast it's something.
Oh, and if you're running a lineage OS based rom you won't need root or the kernel Adiutor. Just go to Live Display in setting and you'll find the same Red, Green and Blue adjustment there.
This one works over both bars, but needs xposed:

I came from an S7 EDGE and I just got my OP5 and there's something I hate about my new phone. Every photos videos on YouTube, Reddit , internet in general looks washed out. The colors are good but when you pay attention, you can see the same artefacts you see on a highly compressed video/photo. In other words, the screen looks like it's not even a 8 bit color panel. Do you guys know a solution about this? I never saw this problem on any phone ( I'm a cellphone seller in Canada ), not even on my S7 EDGE, Alcatel IDOL 3, Nexus 5
Maybe it's because it's pentile or something
You might want to change the screen calibration method under settings / display and see if that helps at all.
Unfortunately the problem is still existent. Look at the uploaded screenshot with your phone The colors on the dialer supposed to be gradient but it's not. That my problem .

The dialer looks lighter at the top and darker at the bottom--are you saying there isn't enough transition between the two or that the colors in the screenshot are inaccurate? You might want to do a search for gradient android dialers (which should have screenshots) to verify the problem is with the phone rather than with the specific app you are using. All of the gradient screenshots I pulled up looked fine on my phone but the color changes were a lot more subtle than the one you provided. It's possible you have a bad display or that it's calibrated incorrectly for some reason. I've never noticed any problems with the colors on my OP5 and never read a complaint similar to yours.
You might want to make sure Night Mode or Reading Mode aren't on in settings because both would affect the colors.
Also make sure ambient display is off to verify that isn't doing anything screwy.
Have you rooted your phone or installed a custom kernel or anything like that? Do the colors look exactly the same when you boot into safe mode?
I see the banding in the dialer (the background where the dialpad is). Given that it's a screenshot though, that part is likely to be how OnePlus designed the dialer app (screen issues wouldn't show up in a screenshot).

Maybe it's just me and getting used to the larger screen - this is my first device with a screen larger than 5".
I find that when swiping away notifications, when swiping up to unlock the lockscreen, and when swiping down to expand the statusbar/quick settings, I often have to swipe multiple times because my initial swipe(s) are not quite long enough. I have found this to be true on OOS, and all custom ROMs that I've tried, so it's not ROM related - maybe hardware related, or it's just me?
Anyway, does anyone else share this struggle?
Any idea where the code/values can be found that control the distance required for a swipe gesture to be recognized? I would like to experiment with it.
Also, I wonder if it is DPI related? I run at 400 dpi (smallest width set to 432).
Definitely having the same "issue", just coming off a nexus 5 that never needed multiple swipes to get off the lockscreen or notifications
Give yourself a few weeks to see if you get used to it, that way you'll know for sure if it's just you or a hardware/software issue

After a few months I'm still having occasional issues swiping away notifications and pulling down the quick settings.
Notification pull down is 2 pulls for full quick settings in OOS.. I've set it as shortcut to double tap back button or you can use nova gestures .. I use fingerprint sensor so never swiped up from lock screen..
