Anyone else experiencing color distortion when playing netflix? The color just looks very odd, not smooth. I'm on stock rom 2.2.2.
So i have been trying to get a black background that is truly black.
everything i have tried has left a slight hue on the background. back 2 black is not supported or i would have tried that.
is there any way to get background to remain off completely and only light the pixels for the icons, clock, notification etc etc. i notice the info bar at the top is darker than my black background and no matter what i cant get the background to go completely black.
my reasoning is if i make the icons into line art, and keep as much of the screen off wherever i can i can stretch battery life even further. it worked wonders on my gs2. But having a slightly glowing background ruins all that.
I'm not sure whether it's supported, but you can try making a monochrome bitmap-file (.bmp) in MsPaint. At least you are sure this way that the black is truly black.
Have you tried using different launchers? Are you sure the hue is not just your icons giving some 'bleeding'?
thanks, i will give that a try.
its the same with go launcher and touchwiz. its actually magnified on the lockscreen showing lots of banding.
Try this pic. I use it on mine and looks black

My first Note did this so I sent it back. My new one does not do it.
still no luck, apps with black backgrounds look fine.
i tried an all black bitmap and that didnt work either.
is there any way to turn background off and just leave it blank? would that give me a pure black background?
like i said i dont think its a hardware problem since the app backgrounds look deep black unlike the wallpaper. i did see something about the note only being 16 bit and that was causing weird display issues due to scaling or something, blah blah.
its using 24bits
thats right, the note is 24 bit and the os operates in 16 bit currently, right? either way i need to find a way to fix it.
I used a plain black GIF. Works fine for the home screen background, but on lock screen it has barely noticeable dark gray lines in it until you touch it and the unlock symbol appears.
here is the one i made
this black is one color 24 bit png on my note it is completely black at any brightness. let me know if it works. 800 x 1280 black correct dpi blackground

or download "no wallpaper" from the market - simple app that just adds a wallpaper that is totally black. Works a treat.
Try an app called COLOURS by Tim Clark
Unfortunately I lost my galaxy note a week ago so had to buy a new one, have rooted it and put on a new rom but I now have banding issue on the home screen. On the old note I downloaded an app called voodoo screen tuning r&d and it completely fixed the banding issue on the lock screen, unfortunately on my new note, has this ever been addressed? I'd like to put a nice black lockscreen on my phone without it looking like complete ass
It has been fixed. It's banding due to low quality image.. 99% of the banding issues come from that. It's like watching analog tv on a hd screen, you finally see the crap quality.
Download multipicture wallpaper, set lockcreen on random image of choice, make it transparent and put background black. BOOM! FIXED

Hello, I noticed that on black videos or pics my black not mixing with grey color very well. I add screenshots to explain about my situation.
I just noticed that pics on PC looks fine. I try to take pics with camera.
It could be Screen BUG? Or ROM? But I had this on SlimBean and JellyBam.
it is there on most of the Note Screens. Could be because how the color is rendered.. there has been talks of resolving this issue but nothing as of now
I read that some apps can help, I tried Filter Your Screen. added new filter with custom colors and it dissapiers. Now pictures and videos looks good, but Black color is not so much BLACK like before. and I need to turn it on that app :/ Its annoying.
Hi,so i have been having issues with my Google Chrome app on my phone. I have enabled the system-wide dark mode and it was working fine with Chrome at first. But for the last few updates of Chrome,eventhough i have system-wide dark mode enabled,my Chrome home page is displaying in a very light,almost white shade of grey and not dark. It only seems to be affecting my home page though and my search result pages. The websites are all still dark,is anyone else having the same issue? My old Android 6 phone is showing a dark theme in Chrome so it seems to be a problem in Android 10. Does anyone maybe have a fix for this?
