Display and company behind it - Xperia Z1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello XDA community.
Me and my best friend have Xperia Z1 for a month now.
We saw some difrence betwen our phones (He have yellowish screen comparing to my White, and also under sunlight i have almost completly black screen, while he have more red color screen).
I did know the name of aplication which can check Who manufacture our display but cant remember.
Can anyone tell me if knows.
Thank you XDA. All the best.

Not too sure on the manufacturer, you could try the service menu.

As for the tint, if youve unlocked the boot loader (read up about it if you haven't) you can install doom kernel then modify your white balance and then install pimp my xperia from play store and mod it again. You can strike a decent balance using the two of them and you can nearly eliminate the yellow tint. Worth a try.
Just don't forget to research first if the boot loader is still locked.

Unfortunately we got carrier locked bootloaders, so that is not option for us.
That diference dosent bother us at all, we are just curious which company made our LCD panels.
We had similar stuff on Xperia S, where you can actually read who made it, but cant remember the app name :/
Anyway, thank you for your effort

You have to be Rooted and Terminal Emulator.
Here is the Original thread which explain how to do it.

This is mine, Sharp Renesas 1080p video, the other once can be JDC Renesas 1080p video.
Which one is the better one?
BTW, with Terminal Emulator you can check the ID panel even without Root, just type this code
Code:
cd /sys/devices/mdss_dsi_panel
cat panel_id

Hi, thank you for reply.
I tryed with this Un rooted method and it gives me message "access is denied".
Maybe i need to root it after all.

I have a yellowish screen too, I'm using these white balance settings, yellow tint is almost entirely gone and it also adds saturation, tell your friend to give it a try.

Whats your kernel?

Lookout for anti theft and location and root with the bin4ry root, the others cause random reboots.

+1, especially if you need to ask such a question on a development forum.
Well, i will be putting custom roms and mods into the phone anyway. i want to use the phone to its full potential.
Anyway, what is the best thief tracking, or securing program, that guarantees that i can trace him? Since i just lost my phone, i want to secure this one properly.
Thanks for replys, i will look into it in the evning.

[App] screen filter

Many may have different opinion , personally felt good
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...ch_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5oYXhvciJd
set your display brightness to 75% with adapt to light and set screen filter 48% and see you viewing angles, i felt it has improved for two reasons from .253 the screen calibration has been better and deeper colors along with this layer of filter dulls your screen to give you better colors ( darker / saturated ) try it for yourself and post your best setting for the filter..
Hit thanks if this app helped you

Wooow. For me, colors look better when you tilt your phone for 80 degrees. I'm on .434.

I think the app basically reduces the back light rather than the brigtness
Great application. I m on .307 and set brightness at 50% adapt to light and screen filter at 69%,looking great on my phone,it does improve colors making it dark and saturated.

[Q] How to disable DLS?

Is there a way to disable DLS on .257? I hate they removed an option to disable it from regular display settings. I don't want darker images to appear even darker on my display. I hated DLS on Xperia T I had, and I definitely hate it even more now.

I am reflashing back to the original .534 firmware just to uncheck that stupid box and then upgrade to see if it stays un checked.
If it isnt, then ill flash back and use the old firmware until they fix it.
That won't solve this crap. Don't bother.

damn it, jus tried flashing the .534 and .531 for some reason i could turn that **** off, but after a few reboots the thing just stayed blank after passing the Sony screen. gonna just updated to current and return this ****.
THe xperia Z was old but still better, at least i could disable it.
This **** is nice, feels nice, almost everything works. I just need this option disabled and a proper panoramic.
