[Nexus 4 General] daglesj:
I just switched to the Franco Kernel, activated the Recommended Values and pulled the saturation down to 23 in the Misc Gamma section.

At the 'Recommended' saturation setting everyone looked like they were suffering radiation burns. A tad too vivid methinks.

Happy with that for the time being, though stock looked fine though a tad more neutral. Will probably go back to stock in a month or so, I usually do.

What are the recommended base values guys? Please post them cause were all on different kernels here and not everyone is sure when Franco changes them.
[Nexus 4 General] thesebastian:
This is the best i found so far:

B: 255

Grays: 0

Mids: 119

Blacks: 119

Contrast: 0

Whites: 7

Why? Because it's clearly good even at low brightness. (Google Stock AUTO brightness).

Now i find my screen much better than my old Galaxy S3.

P.S.: But remember that AMOLED screens are not calibrated. But most calibrated templates needs 50% brightness, can't use AUTO brightness.
[Nexus 4 General] 3dawg:
What kernel do you use?

Having different standards for colour/gamma settings is just retarded :/

I'm using the franco kernel and I'm using Trinity to change values but there are no gradient scale levels or whatever. I'm content with Franco.kernel and the settings from Obsanity are great so thanks to him and to you for posting it here.
[Nexus 4 General] thesebastian:

[Nexus 4 General] copi:
Sorry, it can't be done :( u see,, successful convertion is from franco to faux, not the other way, because on faux's gamma is more complete value than franco's.

and btw, even on franco's load color profile in his app, when it comes to moles gamma setting, he's also uses old value.. like this :
[Nexus 4 General] sirxdroid:
[MENTION=490798]copi[/MENTION] - thanks. But can we get current Franco profiles that are very similar to the 4 molesarecoming profiles? I'm more interested in the outcome to be "close enough" than in accurate translation between the two.
[Nexus 4 General] copi:
the word 'close enough' is more of subjective no.. hehe,, I dont play the moles gamma setting, because I rarely use it. my favorite thus far is

1. faux accurate color

2. visceralpsyche on franco but all 255

3. bundi

u can see that my preferable choice of gamma color are more toward not to saturated, low mid, to have brightest white without greenish, pure black without purpleish. I use xperia Z theme engine theme to see a good white.

1. maybe u can experiment by switching contrast and brightness first. using franco gamma is more easy. contrast 25 brightness 4, or 18 - 6, etc, u will see the most different by just playing the 2 of that.

2. then u play with saturation that will eliminate the washout color, higher is more likely amoled screen though.

3. black max, white min, grey min, mid is like darker or grey'er

so hope u'll find the best setting to ur liking and would share it with us here, me myself have tried to seek the best setting but so far the few color setting that this guys are posting are already best for my liking.

If u still haven't find it yet, the best way is just using moles init.d file then

:good: hope this help ( eventhough I don't have the setting u ask for :angel: :))

Do you see anything called Amp0, Amp1? What about under the TOOL tab at the bottom, are there any color profiles you can pick from? Trickster may not support AirKernel - you can write to the Trickster dev [MENTION=4141999]bigeyes0x0[/MENTION], he might be able to add support or tell you what's going on if it's already supported.
[Nexus 4 General] bigeyes0x0:
You can match the column of faux's interface and franco's interface using these two posts

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=34825979&postcount=2 (what is brightness, contrast,...)
[Nexus 4 General] sirxdroid:
Easy :) The kernel devs should get together, check their egos at the door and just agree on a common interface even though it might be complicated. That's fine at the kernel level, expose as much as you can in raw form and let apps such as Trickster present an easier to use UI.
[Nexus 4 General] bigeyes0x0:
That is unfortunate... impossible for some, as we tried and failed.

In any case, after pushing the next update out the door, I will unify the interface to use faux's for franco's too. IOW some control won't work as he doesn't expose it but at least the way everyone looks at the control will be the same. This also means the whole screen tab will be available for everyone donated or not regardless of interface used.
[Nexus 4 General] faux123:
my open source implementation exposed all possible controls and was used by pretty much everyone else except 2. There's nothing to prevent the others to use a common interface. Fragmentation isn't started by me since I was the first one to come out with the standard interface :angel:

How did you get along to translating these from the old values?

You'd need to post all of your values if you want them added to the spreadsheet :confused:
[Nexus 4 General] sirxdroid:
Indeed, the molesarecoming colors posted in the spreadsheet for Franco use some invalid values that cannot be set either via the Franco app or Trickster. What happens if you just set those values via the Semaphore app or just echo them to the sysfs?

I've been wondering for a while what the correct values are and I think [MENTION=490798]copi[/MENTION] said the Faux colors could not be directly translated to Franco, only the other way around works. I'd be OK with 'close enough' values for Franco though that simulate PA Brighter profile.
[Nexus 4 General] ksdubya:
stupid question

I have a stupid question probably answered somewhere in here already...but I suck at searching...

If I have PA and Franco, do I need to make any adjustments? I believe I read somewhere that PA has its own adjustments already built in.

Sorry for the stupid question, but different set ups and 100+ page threads can be a little overwhelming.
[Nexus 4 General] nbeebe24:
Franco kernel replaces the PA kernel which does have its own adjustments. So flashing Franco's kernel will allow you to tweak color and gamma to your own preference.

[Nexus 4 General] hamad138:
Do u mean the protector from google?
[Nexus 4 General] sirxdroid:
Yes, this is new in Trickster. It looks like there is now only 1 gamma UI, Faux-like, and it supports other gamma interfaces too, the app internally converts from Faux to Franco for example.

It is interesting because that means one can set the 3 molesarecoming profiles (brighter, contrasty, halfbreed) on a Franco color interface and then read the values via the sysfs and update the spreadsheet with the new numbers.

Here's what I get when doing the above:

PA Brighter:

RGB: 245 244 240

Grays: 49

Mids: 21

Blacks: 118

Whites: 48

Contrast: 31

Brightness: 9

PA Contrasty:

RGB: 245 244 240

Grays: 64

Mids: 68

Blacks: 118

Grays: 64

Mids: 68

Blacks: 118

Hey Shankermk

Are you asking how to change/tweak the colour setting in Franco Kernel? It's easy! Open up the app, choose colour control, then choose screen colour tuning and add the values you want from the spreadsheet (eg 255 R, 255 B, 255 G), then go back and choose Screen Gamma settings and choose the colour you want to change (e.g Red and then tweak the grays, mids etc for it). do that for the other colours and then save! :fingers-crossed: your colours should be good now.

Divesh
[Nexus 4 General] resynx:
Of course I will be. Just been a little busy lately. Will update tonight or tomorrow.
[Nexus 4 General] superstrongboy:
Total noob questions.

I'm using motley's kernel, so if i just purchase the franco/faux's color app, will it still work? and, if yes, which of the two apps would you recommend?
[Nexus 4 General] sirxdroid:
Why don't you start with Trickster free, see how you like it and maybe then you can upgrade to the paid Trickster. The nice thing about Trickster is that it supports many kernels, should you want to play with other kernels. Franco or Faux apps will lock you into one or the other color interface. And if you like the PA color profiles Trickster even has presets for those.
[Nexus 4 General] superstrongboy:
Yeah i actually was playing around with trickster, thats why i thought maybe i should invest into a paid app. So i guess trickster paid would be the way to go then?

Also, i'm not the biggest fan of the PA colors. i feel like they're too dark, but the contrast is quite nice.

Edit: plus most of the color numbers in the spreadsheet are based on franco/faux's app so idk? :S
[Nexus 4 General] sirxdroid:
You may not even need the paid trickster I think the new free version unlocks all color settings. Trickster only uses the faux interface now but it can set colors on kernels that use Franco and others too.

You can start with PA Brighter and adjust from there. But any brighter and you might as well use stock :)

You may also need to turn off auto brightness and make your display brighter the colors will look much better at 50% brightness.
[Nexus 4 General] superstrongboy:
hmm it does look better at 50% brightness instead of auto, thanks :)

also, in the free trickster i can change the RGB values, and amp0 and amp1. but nothing more than that. So would you recommend that i buy the paid app or do i not really need to tinker with the other minor settings?

Thanks again :)
[Nexus 4 General] sirxdroid:
The paid version will open up a bunch of settings, careful what you wish for, it may be overwhelming. But then again it's under $3 for more features, you can save profiles, etc. It's worth the cost to me. If you play with kernels then I'd get the app, if you just use 1 kernel, set it and forget it, then stay with the free version, use one of the presets and forget about it, you'll get used to the colors in a couple of days.

I believe Amp0 = Contrast and Amp1 = Brightness. If you start with one of the presets and tweak Amp0 and Amp1 I'm sure you will find something you like.

And you can try someone else's favorite from this spreadshee (the Basic sheet):

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AoDp2qRui0u0dGE4T2gtSDBTRHVFSldPS2RrX1Rya0E#gid=0

Pay attention to column E, the profile, which you will need to select first in the Tools section of Trickster and then set RGB, Amp0, Amp1.

I hope this helps.
