[Q] Strange Color rendering issue - Lock screen ONLY?!

Hi all,
I have a weird issue and am wondering if anyone else has this there is a fix or is it just me who has this issue?
I have a White N7000 Note and I LOVE IT but for some reason the color BLACK does not render properly on my LOCK SCREEN ONLY... Let me explain...
On my home screens, black is nice and black and is "solid" ie: no color banding, etc... In apps, the color black is "solid" ie: no color banding BUT... On my lock screen, I tried to set a full black wallpaper to make it nice and minimal but when you look at the lock screen there is major vertical banding and the color seems to be a mix of red and black. It also looks very patchy.
I cant upload a pic at the moment as I don't have a camera with me and I don't think the screenshot would show it.
I know that there have been other threads mentioning color issues (banding, etc) and I DO get color banding in certain apps and such (nothing quite like this) but I don't get why this specific issue with "full black backgrounds" ONLY seems to be giving me issues on the lock screen?!
Im a bit stumped. Can anyone advise on this?
Thanks,

Update to the latest firmware. LC1 and LC2 don't have this problem.

Ya... Im on Darky Note ROM v3.3 which is LA6 based so maybe I will have to consider upgrading to a newer ROM...

Hmmmm... Apparently this person is running LC1 Firmware and is having this issue among others as well and apparently he didnt have these issues till he updated to LC1 (which is a bit different)... Please see here...

So the "color banding" is gone with LC1 but the Black on the lock screen is still NOT showing as Black? What DOES it show as?
Also... Do you know if LC2 perhaps fixed the issue completely and WHY is this issue only happening on the lock screen? That is what Id REALLY like to know... Lol...

Maybe it is because of the Rom, or is it Stock.

[Q] Xperia Z Messaging Theme

Hi Everyone,
Does anyone know why Ciara's Xperia Z Conversation / Messaging Theme is black?
I'm from Australia, and my SMS Theme is totally White.
I've seen alot of modded Black/Dark themes here, though none are the same as this Vids -mostly the blue message box color differs slightly.

Is this like a standard for US version or something?

[Q] Don't like the white menu in Kitkat

Peeps,
Anyone know how i can change the menu from white to good old black. My puny eyes seem to hurt when using the menu screen on my Xperia Z 6603 :crying:

Try a different ROM.

maybe weare lucky and someone makes a module (or feature for an existing module) for the xposed framework, so we can change the background-color easily within every rom, even stock-(rooted)-rom.
Try the module "gravity box" which already has an option which changes the dithered background (standard: black to slight grey at the bottom) in the settings to pure black.

The new themes also have an effect on the backgrounds, Im using the craftsmanship theme and have a wooden theme background.
(scratch the above - didn't realize you specified kitkat)

Good fix for yellow screen tint on AOSP?

Hello everyone,
Ever since I got my Z1,its screen has had the yellow tint problem,but I didn't think much of it as my Z had the problem too.So I just opened up the white balance in settings,changed some settings and fixed it.
But ever since I have installed LiquidSmooth, my screen has returned to a beautiful shade of poopy-yellow .I tried many apps on the play store and the color control on the kernel but nothing produces satisfactory results.
Is there anyway to get the old white balance app on this rom or any other way to correct the yellow tint?
Plz give me help and suggestions
Thanks,

Bump
