Re: [Kernel][26/02][N7100 N7105 R950] Perseus

If you actually did what you said in regards to the controls there, then you are the king of placebo, because you turned calibration off.

I clearly stated this in the change log. All you need to do is to tick master sequence. That's all.

People need to look up the definition of toggle, it does exactly that, it toggles the state of the control, or in other words, it negates its value.

People having CS and SCR checkboxes ticked on the master profile are actually turning off the effects. You don't need to touch those in normal circumstances.

These are NOT absolute on/off switches. This is done so that the default states of Samsung's profiles are retained and users don't have to change the effect masters to regain stock settings.

i still can't get them work :(
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Slimer777:
Original but this is not recommended because;

1. how do you get your printer calibrated? If you have the right equipment to calibrate a printer, you might as well use it on the phone directly.

2. calibrating printer uses a different read mode on the equipment then measuring lights coming off a screen. using one to calibrate the other will be nearly impossible.

3. never trust your eyes in colour calibration! you can get close but nearly always wrong on a professional level.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] darkinners:
I love the new screen color tweaks.

I see many people report the screen turned reddish after master sequence on?

Weird, I don't have reddish problem, instead I have green tilt problem.

Now red look orange. Everything is sooooooo green. (compare to my calibrated Dell U3011 monitor)

aside from that. I really love the new tweak, the color look much more natural and not saturated.

In my test, the red and blue level is about right on my screen after master sequence.

Only the green channel is too prominent ..
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] agent_so:
the master has spoken.. :good: :laugh: :highfive:
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Slimer777:
You are the third kind. There is not much room to increase in the white balance, so try to decrease first.

You should turn up red in white balance and if it still looks green, then turn down the green. Lastly adjust blue.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] agent_so:
ahahhaa. exactly my point.. because if your eyes are not trained for the correct/calibrated profile, it will just look ugly..

now if you cannot print it, or doesnt know how to print with right calibration..

then just buy a color reference card or color reference chart.. just google it.. it will cost you.. but will surely give you peace of mind! :silly::silly:
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Slimer777:
Did you try the reset and reflash then turn on 'master sequence' ONLY.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] agent_so:
i suggest, to reset the settings on your STweaks Under Extras.. then just go directly to SCREEN and just tick the "enable master sequence" and thats it!

it will look weird at first. but train your eyes with the CALIBRATED profile..

do not tick other else or adjust other else. because you are just going to mess with the color corrected calibration..

Re: [Kernel][26/02][N7100 N7105 R950] Perseus

I've enabled only master sequence and register hook. And unchecked the rest so only master sequence is working. Is register hook OK to have enabled or will it negate something in master sequence.

For the first time in my life I followed the instructions and it paid off xD btw can you have a look at the edge enhancement?? Turning it off/on screws the screen to hell
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] agent_so:
NO NO NO....

i believe it is already cleared from many of US to say that you check "enable master sequence" ONLY

As master Andrei SAID, it will NEGATE the CALIBRATION....

Congratz, it does look weirdly superb now (to my untrained eyes). I also played with HDR in video and movies look kinda... Ummm dunno how to define it except nice and a lot more detail in the shadows, like more light... Yes of course... It's HDR xD

Cranked the screen up to max and the white does seem very white to me, no pink or green, as far as my eyes and I can tell...

Again you have created something brutally amazing, and I humbly thank you both with my deep gratitude, for the insane amount of hours and passion that you poured into this breakthrough! BRAVO!

[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] agent_so:
if you are not keen with color calibrated profile.. at first you will see reddish/pinkish because you were used to un-calibrated colors..

i suggest to let the new calibrated profile sit.. and eventually you will get used to it.

at first it seems reddish/pinkish when i applied the calibration.. but then again.. i compared it with my color corrected photos.. and eventually instead of seeing reddish/pinkish color.. it turned out to be a true white!

again your EYES ARE DECEIVING YOU

Re: [Kernel][26/02][N7100 N7105 R950] Perseus

Super confused as slimer is saying he's is enabled by default where's mine wasn't and I had to check it. Andre shall I enable it or not, it doesn't seem to make a difference if its enabled or not though.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] AndreiLux:
Re: [Kernel][26/02][N7100 N7105 R950] Perseus

There is no reason to re-flash, he probably doesn't have the hook enabled to make the controls work.

It's fine to enable the hook, it just enables all of the controls below. If you leave the values at 0 the hook won't have any effect.

Please attentively read the change log and descriptions!
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] agent_so:
again there is an effect... The problem is with your eyes!! Its not trained or used with calibrated colors..

Again there is no problem with this release.. Only your eyes.. ;);)
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] Slimer777:
As a last resort, I would even try the other kernal file. If you were using odin, try CWM and vice versa. Or better yet, try to uninstall Stweaks then reflash the kernel.

I forgot to ask, do you not even get the calibrated effects by enabling 'master sequence' or just not able to tweak?
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] nintendolinky:
Re: [Kernel][26/02][N7100 N7105 R950] Perseus

All sorted and looks amazing. I just have master sequence enabled. It kinda doesn't look like an amoled screen any more as the colours aren't saturated at all. Kinda looks like a One X screen :)
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] agent_so:
They saturate the colors so that it will look eye candy.. but who needs bright saturated/vivid colors if you will not get accurate/calibrated colors..

so congrats! you finally did it!! :cyclops::cyclops::cyclops:

[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] AndreiLux:
We do not have RGB control on Samsung devices, they use their own image processing mechanism called mDNIe which can control a massive amount of configurables as saturation, gamma curves, sharpness, blur, and several other things. The problem is that these settings are very complicated and one would have to reverse-engineer them. Supercurio has promised this but hasn't delivered in over a year.

The only way we really can achieve this is through crowd-sourcing the effort. We can make an interface to these settings, but as you said, only somebody with a meter and measuring device will be able to achieve anything with it.

I'm pretty sure I will support the US variations of the Note as they are Exynos based and the configurations are almost identical. I have to mention again that I don't even own the Note 2, I'm just barely working through proxy via the S3 and asking testers for Note 2 specific stuff. The only Note 2 specific thing left is the sound modifications/ Voodoo port as the sound platform has changed from the S3, but I haven't had time to look into it yet.

Here's a snapshot of what a mDNIe scenario profile looks like:

It is just basically pumping some values sequentially into several registers of the mDNIe engine. We currently just know what a handful of these do.

Lmao ok thanks
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] garyd9:
AndreiLux -

Using the 15/10 GNote kernel with no changes to the governor settings, I'm noticing that the processor cores that are brought online aren't going back offline as long as the device screen is on - at least as reported by the "perfmon" app released by Chainfire.

Steps to repeat:

1. Load up perfmon (free XDA version here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1933284) and set it to show "CPU." You'll see stats on each of the CPU cores.

2. Run something that will stress all 4 cores (bringing them online) such as antutu benchmark. (Personally, I prefer stressing by dropping to a shell and running "cat /dev/urandom > /dev/null &" 4 times..)

3. Once you see all 4 cores going at full speed, let the benchmark finish (or kill whatever is being used to ensure all the cores are going.)

4. At this point, you'll see the speed for each of the cores drops to 200Mhz (or whatever your min is at.) However, none of them goes 'offline' again. (Expected: after a moment, 1 or 2 of the cores go back to 'offline' status.)

5. If you put the device into standby (screen off) for a minute and then turn the display back on again, you'll probably see perfmon showing that 1 to 2 cores are now offline.

Oddly, I noticed the exact same thing occur with the last ICS kernel you released on the i9300. In that particular case, out of curiousity, I flashed the last i9300/ICS siyah kernel to compare - and that kernel does allow the cores to go back offline while the screen is turned on.

I'm not sure if this is an issue with how your kernel reports the CPU online/offline status, or if the governor tweaks you set up are causing this. I will admit that I'm NOT up to speed on the various 'pegasusq' settings (which means I won't mess with them on my own.)

The fact that it occurs with your i9300 ICS kernel and your n7100 JB kernel seems to imply that it'll also occur with the i9300 JB kernels (however I don't have JB on my i9300 so can not confirm that.)

Take care

[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] AndreiLux:
I can't reproduce this, and I haven't touched the hotplug settings in over 3 months now.

Enable dvfs_debug in the governor configurables and monitor in a terminal the ram console via cat /proc/kmsg ; run Stability Test to load the cores and see the cores go online, turn it off and I'll turn off down up to 3 cores. We're usually running with 3 cores on on idle or 2 cores if nothing ever brought it up. I know it's not terribly efficient but this is already even worse with the stock kernel as I raised the runqueue thresholds for the hotplugging decisions.

We can't have the cores going in and out too often because the current hotplug architecture in the 3.0 kernel is a gigantic mountain of feces. Every time you plug in or out a CPU it causes the whole machine to freeze for a couple of dozen of milliseconds, and the kernel is doing a lot of unnecessary shít in the background during the process. This causes lags and people complain about lags and stutters. Siyah maybe had some slightly more aggressive settings, but there is no difference in the logic between the two.

The runqueue logic isn't either quite the best in terms of hotplugging decisions, but it's the best we have right now.

To resolve all these issues involves a lot of work... I want to maybe achieve it in the following months, but it's complicated stuff so it might not happen at all.
[Galaxy Note II Original Android Development] dachness:
Thank you for the detailed explanation. While what you mentioned is doable and I would love to see it happen. I don't anticipate many will be stepping up to the plate to make countless adjustments and a multitude of measurements after each adjustment. How much work would it take to build the interface you mentioned? Would making adjustments be as easy as moving a slider or typing in a value between 0 and 1024?

I would like to thank you for your time and effort to make a kernel for the Note 2 despite not having a device to test. This truly is a testament of your commitment to the community. I look forward to running your kernel on an AT&T Note 2 and will be sure to provide feedback.

Force gpu rendering’ and ‘Disable Hardware Overlays’

Ok Android experts I need some help please!

On my Note II Ive re-flashed the stock ROM, Gallery works fine, flashed Perseus again and now Gallery is painfully slow, it stutters, freezes and is pretty much unusable but why and is there a fix?

Ive read about 'Force gpu rendering’ and ‘Disable Hardware Overlays’ in development options which i tried and both worked a treat but I also read that battery life will be worse using either options, some apps wont work, and gpu could be burned out faster!

Im not expert with Androids, and I don't want to kill my Beast early, plus being a battery freak don't want to use more battery!

What do you guys think? has anybody else got this problem? any help would be massively appreciated!

Re: [Kernel][26/02][N7100 N7105 R950] Perseus

They don't saturate anything, it's just that raw OLED colour gamut is insanely large, you have light on the pure spectrum and intensity you want to display, red is only displayed by a red source of light in exactly that wavelength, while on LCD displays red light is achieved by filtering out green and blue out of the white which comes from the backlight.
