[Nexus 4 General] namurt:
why is it that i can't set the halfbreed colors using fku? i understand that some of the other profiles on the spreadsheet are using outdated values that are no longer supported by newer franco kernel revisions, but shouldn't i be able to set halfbreed colors given that PA comes with a franco kernel baked in?

i'm running the latest pa (3.60) and the latest franco nightly (r154). when i go into fku and try to set colors, some values (such as saturation for example) don't go up high enough, or even more frustrating, the sliders don't have single digit increments so i can't zero in on the values in the spreadsheet.

am i just an idiot and missing something obvious? i thought maybe i could tap on the value itself and manually input, but no dice. for now i'm using trickster to set my color and gamma values, but i'd like to just have a one-stop-shop with fku if possible.
[Nexus 4 General] snak3ater:
Why are you going for the sliders. Just select the halfbreed profile from the fku and you are good to go.. but keep in mind that the values of grey and white are kinds switched in the profile that comes with the fku.. check out the spread sheet as well
[Nexus 4 General] namurt:
but i'm not crazy (and/or stupid :p) right? the sliders have weird increments?

[Nexus 4 General] Anrikus:

[Nexus 4 General] jdrials:

Either go for the Profiles provided in the Fku..Or just go with Trickster Mod

[Nexus 4 General] Raza Qadri:
Don't use auto brightness
[Nexus 4 General] sirxdroid:
Or use a ROM or app such as Lux that lets you set the brightness based on the lux level.
[Nexus 4 General] snak3ater:
Auto brightness is good . you can adjust it according to your needs.. I've set 10% brightness for 0-10 lux and so on.. Looks fine even if there is no light at all
[Nexus 4 General] namurt:
i noticed a discrepancy between the halfbreed values on the spreadsheet versus the halfbreed values included in the profile within fku.

greys and whites values are reversed between the two. in the spreadsheet they are 64 and 32, respectively. in the fku profile they are 32 and 64. so which is correct for true halfbreed colors?
[Nexus 4 General] sirxdroid:
Try them both ways and see which one you like best, if you can tell the difference. I'm not sure anyone really knows if these values should be labeled "greys" or "whites", they are just some numbers, the labels don't really matter. At some point Franco suggested that the values should be swapped. Quoting from this post:

I use the bundi22 profiles that use 0 for both values, so I'm lucky. But I'm equally confused about the 2 values. In the end it's not a big deal, it just means you have 2 ways to try it and pick one that looks best to you. If the values are close, it's probably not even noticeable.
[Nexus 4 General] snak3ater:
Yeah . the values are swapped but you won't feel any difference if you try both..

[Nexus 4 General] ultrapirate:
Those are my 2 favorite profiles.
[Nexus 4 General] sirxdroid:
bundi22 is great on stock auto-brightness. Halfbreed looks very good if you are willing to manually set brightness to around 50% (and probably pay some price in terms of battery life) but then the whites are so bright they are hurting my eyes :)
[Nexus 4 General] funcrusher:
I used pa - contrasty before switching to the S3 profile. I use Lux for auto-brightness. Always disliked how low stock is.
[Nexus 4 General] Mr.Vain:

is it right, that Trickster starts every boot and shows a notification?

Is there any possible way to translate Mr.Philio's iPhone 5 settings for franco kernel?
[Nexus 4 General] sirxdroid:
I assume you are talking about the Basic sheet row 29. If so, those are just some basic settings. From the Gamma sheet try rows 43 and 44 instead, by bundi22. I've turned a few people to using them :)

But if you must ... I think this is how they translate to Franco:

Greys: 114

Mids: 21

Blacks: 118

Whites: 48

Contrast: 15

Brightness: 0

Saturation: 80

(You may need to swap greys and whites, it's unclear which way they should really be - try it both ways, see which one you like more, then use bundi22 :) )

[Nexus 4 General] hospital349:
I spent a while updating my original color profile (listed as 38_HOSPITAL349 in franco.Kernel Updater).

I always enjoyed these values, although with the summer breaking through, I found it difficult to view my screen with such deep blacks + low brightness + high contrasts, mids and saturation. That being said, I feel that I have found values that work well together, without massively effecting screen visibility in direct sunlight. Thus, the following values are hospital349's Summertime Profile :cyclops:

R: 250

G: 250

B: 255

Red:

Grays= 0

Mids= 119

Blacks= 119

Whites= 2

Green:

Grays= 0

Mids= 119

Blacks= 119

Whites= 2

Blue:

Grays= 0

Mids= 119

Blacks= 119

Whites= 2

Contrast: 7

Brightness: 7

Saturation: 7

As always, these are values that I tweaked over several days whilst being out and about in my city. I didn't scientifically or mathematically test gamma readings or calibrate the way others do. They're just pleasing to my eyes and hopefully yours. Enjoy! :good:

How do you save the color settings in trickster when you flash an updated kernel?

Sent from my Nexus 4
[Nexus 4 General] sirxdroid:
You can save a color profile if you have the paid version of Trickster. Even though I do, I prefer to use a script to set colors and then enable "set on boot" in Trickster.
[Nexus 4 General] anshumandash:
Would you mind sharing such a script? And do I just put the script under init.d folder?

Sent from my Nexus 4
[Nexus 4 General] sirxdroid:
The script depends on the kernel you are using and what color interface it supports. Which kernel are you using?

If you put the script in init.d then it runs at boot and sets your color profile. It's a valid way to do it, but then if you also have something like Trickster or another kernel app set to apply on boot it may override the settings. What I do is run the script by hand from the command line once (I do not put it in init.d) and then reload Trickster to read the colors I just set, apply the settings in Trickster and set it to apply them on boot. The script is basically a quick way for me to set the color profile so I don't have to keep entering the same numbers in the Trickster UI.

Whats the best/preferred/recommended brightness level for ip5 color profile?

If by ip5 color profile you mean the bundi22 profile, yes, at least to my eyes.

[Nexus 4 General] Noiseboy1176:
Hi guys (and girls),

So today I pulled out my old beat up X-Rite colorimeter and spent about 4 hours analysing and tweaking the gamma curve of my N4. I've got plenty of experience calibrating LCD TV's and monitors for work, but never done a phone before. It took a long time to work out what each of the gamma controls actually did since to me the names are quite cryptic, and very different to what I'm used to with TV's. But with the help of some pics and posts in this thread I managed to get my head around it.

The colorimeter I have is about five years old and these days its pretty much only good for simple light level measurements. Cheap colorimeters, like the one I have, drift out of calibration quite substantially over time, and mine provides some pretty wacky colour measurements. It is, however, still quite accurate for simple gamma adjustments, just not for proper greyscale or gamut measurement. All I did was treat all three RGB sliders on each gamma control as a single value, so whatever colour errors were present are still there, just with much better gamma. Hopefully soon I can get my hands on a newer colorimeter and do a proper greyscale calibration, it makes a huge difference and is pretty much impossible to do by eye.

Anyway, long story short, I managed to get a pretty flat gamma curve at ~2.2, screenshot attached. I'm still tweaking the colours gradually by eye but I'm really happy with the results so far,. Contrast ended up at about 850:1, stock "LG preset" was about 1000:1 but with accurate gamma tracking I think it looks way better despite the reduced contrast ratio.

Settings are below if you wanna try them out. I have no idea what they will look like on your phone since all screens are different, but please let me know if you like them. :)
