[Q]Fixing color balance for JB-based ROMs - HTC Incredible S

Hi guys,
I used three JB-based ROMs for IncS (CyanVivo X, Codename Android and JellyBean Evolution), and so far all of them shared the same feature: the screen tint was noticeable yellowish. I'm not a designer and I can't say whether it's a result of low red or surplus yellow, but it is difficult for me to read from the yellowish screen, while I read a lot.
I don't want to go back to 4.0, thus, I have a question: is there a way to somehow adjust the color balance? I tried the following ways:
- screen overlay apps, like Screen Adjuster -- yellow tint is recompensed, but the black color fades out and becomes brown or violet;
- calibration tool from this thread -- the app didn't even get installed.
Can anyone suggest a working color temperature calibration tool?
Maybe it is possible to repack the ROM itself to change the default color balance?
Or is there a custom kernel with color management feature?
Thanks in advance!

I'm on CyanVivo X now, and I'm not noticing any tint. Sure it's not your screen?

It's your screen. Otherwise every man and his dog would be complaining.

Dogs do not see the vast amount of 'colours' that we humans do. They probably won't be able to tell the difference between a HTC One X and a iPhone 2g
The dog probably wouldn't be complaining. Only the man.
Just sayin
Anyway I just flashed CM10 today and I don't have a problem with colors

i guess it's your display. i don't have any issues with any roms.

using CyanVivo X, no such issue . check ur screen with other roms

None of ICS-based ROMs has this issue. Virtuous Vivo, Blackout, Android Revolution, Bliss, stock - all ok.
I'm not sure that I know the true reason, but as HTC hasn't released 4.1 update for IncS, all JB ROMs now are ports from different devices with probably different screen. I guess that color balance can really vary between different phones to obtain nearly similar picture on the screens of different generations.

I was thinking of putting more options to let participants get the choice of all colours. It's just that i want to narrow down the choices i have already personally made. Feel free to post your own opinions of what colour you prefer out of the available colours on sale. Although please take a vote on your favourite of the 3.
i got myself the grey
grey
I'd say the darker the colour the better. Every time I buy something white I always regret it a week later when it has a dirty-looking stain which won't wash off.
ONE OF EACH OF COURSE .. Daaaaaa
GET One of each and you can be matched with your fav outfit..
Now i know why i have two closets full of cloths and 1 CLOSET with nothing but shoes and so accessories ..
Blue. The others will be nasty after extended usage.

I would have got black if they stuck to the design of a grey shell that clips onto the device. For some strange reason they changed it to black on the black version making it stand out from the original design of the other colours.
Voted for blue....Love it!
i just bought a blue one in china

[Q] Blue dots when recording video

Hi everyone, i might have a problem with my OB. WHen i use camera some blue dots are appearing in the videos :| as well in the pictures, most often in low light environment. Anyone has the same issues? Sorry for my english btw.
Yea I have the same exact problem
Same here. U find solution?
Sent from my LG-P970 using xda premium
Do you guys maybe have a screen problem? I mean, go to hidden menu and make a display test, or simply upload a black, a white, a green and maybe a red picture to your phone. If you also see the spots there, you got dead pixels, otherwise, maybe ur cam is dirty?
or maybe you see "camera noise"

No It's not dead pixels, just when taking pictures with the camera.
no, not dead pixels, its something with the camera. I've searched on the web and i found problems like this at many other phones. But just in low light environment, so i guess its hardware. I'm using zeus v6.39 but i dont think its software , or could i be wrong?
Here is an example

exactly the same . So hardware or software?

must be software because i get this with all lg based roms like zeus v7

Same here. But I think is software, I have the same problem with stock-based ROMs. Now I'm using CM7 and I don't have this issue.

[REAL FEEL] Fastest ROM out there?

Hey guys.
I'm always curious what's the fastest ROM out there.
I don't want to see benchmarks, just the "REAL EVERYDAY FEEL" of the ROM counts.
At the moment I'm switching between RasSaber, SaberMod and the AOKP PUB builds by Whitehawkx, bigxie or kecinzer.
Most of the time I pair it with the latest franco nightly.
Since I tasted the smoothness of these various set-ups, I'm always coming back since PA for example is just quiet a bit slower.
So enough said. Can someone point to a faster set-up in comparision to the above mentioned??
Greetz.

Threads like this are pointless.
Try them all out everyone has different opinion. Please don't make threads like this

I know that there's nothing like the "best" ROM, but there was huge progress in performance with the new gcc toolchains. Just wanted to know if there were other ROMs as fast. With the actual population of ROMs I cannot try them all
theres no right answer for real feel, as real feel will be different for everyone, and every setup. there isnt a way to measure real feel.
When you swipe and your finger sticks to the screen causing the phone to shoot off the table.. that's when you have the fastest ROM/Costly ROM

Which kernel gives the best accelleration in this circumstance
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
In developer options change everything from 1.0 to 0.5, get Nova Launcher, choose in settings Super Fast for animations and evrey rom will fly for you
These threads just turn into people posting the ROM theyre currently on. Just try them all until you find one that you think is fast, There Is No Other Way™

Yes, indeed. and much more noise on low light environment .
Honestly everything you linked are of totally different scenes taken at different points of the day it's very hard to do a comparison.

Yes, I confirm. Detailing has become better at night, but at other time...
I'm at 4.2.2 and have taken about 100 pics. I can't decide if they are better or worse. Outside pics seems to be even darker and in pics with both dark and light scenes there seems to be even more difficulties to choose the right spot to focus on, they tend to be either to dark or light.
I'll listening in in this thread before deciding this month Android version

I am also unsure. Have the impression that the 4.2.2. cause a lack of details in the pictures and I have problems with focus in the dark.

After viewing the samples, I got an impression that pictures are noticeably brighter on 4.2.2.
At the moment I'm glad that I was patient and didn't throw myself into updating.
Better to wait.
Maybe ROM 2.17... will have a different version radioROM (HBOOT) than 1.29.....???
You guys are crazy. They've turned down the crazy over sharpening over contrasting algorithm in the new update. Shots are so much more lifelike and less noisy.
Some seem like they have less 'pop', but they are much more accurate and realistic.

has anyone in here called HTC because of the faulty camera module and got its mobile phone exchanged to a new one with better camera quality?

I did, but I think it was for a different problem than what the OP si experiencing (I think). I had a problem with blue/red/purple noise in low light scenes. Took the phone into service and got a replacement. Here is the problem I had (and others as well) along with before and after photos:

Screen color temperature

Is there a mod or a kernel to flash that allows to change the color screen temperature? Mine is a little too warm and i'd like to became more cold.

With CyanogenMod 10.1.2 I could change the colour temperature, but with 10.2 I just can't find that setting anymore. Was it removed and is there a way?
If not, that app is good? I read Chainfire3D, but it's for older android versions.

Faux kernel, if you mean this

Is there a smaller and more specific app? Faux kernel does a load of things, which explains the price, not worth buying if all you need is to make your screen slightly colder in temperature.
Can't believe it is so hard to find this. Like I could not believe nobody ever seemed to have made a Galaxy S3 analogue clock widget.

I don't know mate.
Fauxclock is built for faux kernel in advance, but probably is compatible with a lot of kernel.
However, try to search on the play store or here on xda.
p.s. The kernel have to support this feature too
Latest ElementalX-Versions support changing colors, best is to read the last pages as some spotted this topic. Faux's Kernel Tuner was the only mentioned app though for changing the colours AFAIR..
