[Settings] In search of a White Screen - ZenFone 2 General

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.

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?

Tweaked Voodoo Color Settings

I have decided to post these voodoo color settings that I felt is closest to stock Samsung color settings with a little extra pop and better black. I never messed with voodoo color until I realized that all the good OC/UV kernels for CM7.1 have voodoo color enabled with voodoo color settings way too warm for my liking. I am sure most of you prefer to have white whites and not orange whites. Here are my voodoo color settings and please let me know if you like them. Please feel free to post your tweaked settings here.
Color profiles:
Original
Screen RGB multipliers:
Red = 3507556800
Green = 3507556800
Blue = 3855244480
Screen v1 gamma hack:
-35 red
-38 green
-35 blue
I have been tweaking colors all week and I just posted my updated settings.

Looks great when brightness is not minimum or auto. It gets a nasty green overlay. But other than that looks good on MIUI to me

Looks awesome on MIUI. Thanksss!!
EDIT: whats with this nasty green when screen turns off?!
This thread should be in the general section...
Best results are gamma all the way down to have to bright whites and darkest darks while the RGB multipliers should be all the way up for a brighter richer display.
Those settings go hand and hand with no ugly green screen..
Rensorek you are right. These settings only look good with full brightness which is the only way I roll.

These can't be applied in froyo 2.2.1? I have the bali 1.8.8 kernel and a JVJPM modded arabic rom by jelette. I have the voodoo control app but I don't get color settings options in them.

only work on CM7 based roms using a custom kernel that supports voodoo color.
how do you do this on miui?
nevermind i found it, I had to reflash the kernel.
Thanks for the color suggestions. Tried a few that made colors very vibrant, but I find the gamma settings a bit dark when viewing pictures.
Here's my tweaked version:
RGB:
Red = 2300875360
Green = "
Blue = 2791728640
Gamma:
Red = -18
Green = -11
Blue = -12 or -11

I dont mean to sound like an ass, but that is one of Glitch kernel's biggest downfalls to me. The colors are WAY off, whites are so off its not even funny. I spent 2 days trying to get the whites to look white and the colors to look right and it just doesnt look right. That was partly the reason why i went back to stock/TW stuff.

HABEEB IT!
turn the gamma settings down low to get good contrast and better blacks and whites. then tweak them to your screen and do the rgb multipliers however you want. every phone is different but the gamma down low with your own rgb settings will probably make things much more vivid.

It's true that the colors in Glitch kernel are not at best, but tweaking them like sageDieu said really improve them. Every phone is different, but every user too..!
how would i go about changing these settings?

You need to be on the Glitch kernel and install the Voodoo Control application from the market. Then scroll down in the app near the bottom and play with the color settings.
I found these are the best for my phone

Screen Colours

Upgraded to the One Plus X from my 3 year old Samsung Galaxy S3 (you have served me well) and the first thing I noticed is that the colours on my S3 are more vibrant the One Plus X -_-
It's because color temperature in OPX is set to high. It's probably over 8000K instead of 6300K, which results in blue tint, more vibrant blue and green color and washed out reds, oranges and other warm colors.

Can IT BE Fixed
Sure.
Either OP fixes color temperature with next update or they implement color temperature slider in Oxygen OS, which will allow you to set it by yourself.
If not, then there are and will be custom kernels that will allow color calibration (I'm not sure if blu_spark kernel supports it, but I think so).
Simple solution to all of this, is to flash a custom kernel and use kcal to tweak the screen the way you want it to be.

Google or srgb?

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.
