Google or srgb? - Nexus 6P Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey People, i was wondering what all of us are using as screen settings and why.
For me srgb looks certainly more accurate but White are yelloish, they look better on Google's calibration settings but then colors are too saturated... So for now i still haven't made my choice. How about you? What do you use?

Well I'm running DU ROM which comes with a custom kernel. To me, stock colors don't pop enough. I left the RGB values alone and simply bumped my saturation to 35. Display looks great at this setting for me. I've tried a hundred different display settings and for me this one looks the best. I use kernel adiutor to adjust my display settings

Thanks mate, still haven't made up my mind as to routine n6p should i need assistance for it.... Take YouTube screens for instance, that red punches Soo much to me

Running custom kernel and I use the same profiles that I used on my N6 to get 6500k.

I'm using screen adjuster +8 on blue
Gives better whites... Anyone tried color screen filter from play store? Might give some more options I think

I use 100% stock screen settings. I like the way Amoled looks. SRGB looks washed out and boring, even if I compare it with my Nexus 5 (2013) screen.

Awesome Color Calibrator from the Nexus Forum!

This allows you to adjust the RGB Screen Colors. Check it out. Works on my EVO:

What are your settings?
I only got Force Closes when trying it out...
This has been around forever, I also got Fc's trying to use it.
I have CM6 RC 2, works fine
just was wondering the setting people with EVO's are changing them to
This is built in Cyanogen Mod too.
Settings/user interface/render effect.
Can also be applied as a widget.
It helps a good bit, if you compare non-calibrated and calibrated, without calibration the colors look too washed out and not as dark and deep.

i want dark and deep, what are the settings to get it like that?
Well, this adjusts RBG but it doesn't adjust contrast for blacker blacks or color saturation. Basically what it will do is make your colors either warmer or cooler. Just play with it till you find one you like. If you want a more 3d effect, choose wallpapers in soft focus (or do it yourself using Photoshop) and icons will appear to "float" above the background.

That **** sure says a lot....
Sorry, I had to. lol. Neat app!
thats pretty cool
I just tried the built in app in CM6.1 and it really gives my EVO a different look. Im using the N1 Low setting.
I find just N1 Calibrated (not cool or red) works best. It really does make a good bit of difference too, try watching a video with it off and it on. The colors feel a bit richer and more natural with the calibration.
I couldn't go back to keeping the default settings anymore
I agree that N1 is best on my EVO. Seems to make the blacks blacker which always makes the screen appear to "pop" more.
However, these are pre-settings. Wit the tweak I mentioned in the OP it is completely customizable. Anyway, whatever works for you.
Posted this in the other thread, but does anyone else get a green hue when scrolling (it's easiest to see in something like the "settings" menu when you scroll).
Any idea if this is correctable?

(Request) Dimmer screen setting

Now that's I'm rooted and running a custom kernel I am hoping somebody includes a dimmer screen setting, specifically because I still feel the lowest current setting is too bright when reading it night. I know past rooted devices I've owned have had this feature and it worked well. Thanks!
There is an app called Screen Filter which puts an adjustable shade over the screen to reduce brightness. IMO the whites on the samsung are alittle too white for my taste even at the lowest brightness setting. I use Screen Filter every time I read PDFs. You will love it, its free also.

Thanks. Looks like a good app so far. The dev claims that it will affect battery life but I noticed the soft keys stay the sam brightness which tells me the screen brightness isn't actually being changed. Hopefully something will be baked in to a future ROM.

It will only increase battery life for tablets and phones with AMOLED screens. The tab 10 has an LCD screen so battery life will remain the same.
I second that Screen Filter app. I use it on my DroidX and now the GT10.1. The fact that you can setup a widget for a specific brightness then tab the widget again to go back to the prior setting.
Bump. Any devs working on this for a rom feature?

Quick question I hope you all can help with

I have had my Samsung Nexus since day 1 and I have just got the N7. I have always rooted and had custom roms on my devices. On my Gnex I have been running the Franco app and kernel. One of the best things I love is the ability to adjust my RGB colors to my liking. Does anyone know of a rom, kernel or way to be able to adjust or tweak the RGB colors on the N7?? Loving the N7 and it would be great to get my display colors tweaked better for my eyes. Being a diabetic causes me eye issues at times. Thanks in advance for the help...
This type of adjustment is only possible with AMOLED screens, which the Nexus 7 doesn't have.

I hate to hear that, I didn't know that was the reason. Thanks for the info

Long time Android phone user, new N7 owner. Couple questions.

1. Is there currently any custom ROM or app that can tweak the color saturation system-wide? Back when I had a Captivate, most of the AOSP roms had voodoo color that allowed you to tweak color temp, saturation, and RGB values of the AMOLED screen, because it really needed it. The oob saturation of the N7 screen seems like it could use a boost when held next to my One X. I've already applied the PRISM patch but it's not washout that I have a problem with, it is system-wide saturation.
2. Is there a way, probably with a custom ROM, to get the nav bar (I think that's the name, home, back, recents bar) to stay on one side in landscape mode instead of taking up precious vertical screen real estate at the bottom of the screen?
Thanks in advance, and sorry if these have already been answered. It's tough to search in the XDA app.

[Settings] In search of a White Screen

Hey guys, as you may have noticed, Zenfone 2 (or at least the ZE551ML) has a warm-ish tint on it's screen colors. On CM13, I think I might've found the settings to get as close to pure white as possible. Here are my current settings:
[CM13 4/22 Nightly]
RED - 92%
GREEN - 89%
BLUE - 100%
If you have a different setting and feel that it's a lot closer to pure white, please share it with us!
Stock rom or stock-based rom users should be able to adjust the screen color as well via Splendid app. I'm not sure though how to get into detail about that since it's only a single color slider unlike CM13's RGB settings.
I just set the color temperature on splendid to minimum. it's not a perfect white, but it's better than 95% of the other phones I compared to

Yeah, I remember doing that as well on splendid. I believe that it gives a more cooler color temperature. I tried to compare that to an iPhone 5s and Zenfone 5, about 2-3 steps higher from your settings might do the trick.
