hi,
1)I've updated to Oreo (weekly updates, not stable from xiaomi.eu) and I usually fixed my ghosting problems with "color changer pro" setting rgb to 215 (255 max) but now I m not able to run it in background, when I turn on the device again I need to set color changer again. is there any similar software or way to mod screen colors?
2) i have deleted software thermal control on 7.0 but on 8.0 I don't know how to delete software thermal control because Oreo don't use the same files as 7.0 and those are missing

In my opinion, the screen on the Moto G4 Play is pretty decent for a budget device -- aside from the bluish/cool hue of the color reproduction. This is due to the white point of the display being set to 8653K, far from the ideal of 6500K (Velasco, 2016). It could possibly be fixed with a software-based recalibration from Moto/Lenovo (I'm not holding my breath), but there are a couple of things that we can do to make it a little better.
If you are using CyanogenMod you have the ability to adjust the colors under display settings to take some of the blue and green out. This is probably the easiest method.
If you are running a stock ROM the options are more limited, especially for anybody with a variant that does not support unlocking the bootloader and rooting. You might be out of luck. The following steps are for anybody running the stock ROM with root. If you have not rooted or modified your phone yet please read the warnings on the respective threads.
1. The Kernel
You will need a custom kernel that supports color correction, specifically what you want to look for is KCAL MDP5 color control. The squid2 kernel supports this feature, and there may be others as well. http://forum.xda-developers.com/g4-play/development/kernel-squid-kernel-moto-g4-play-t3496641 Remember to make a nandroid backup of your boot partition before installing any kernel or superuser software.
2. The Apps
As far as I know you need root access to use any of the software that allows you to do color correction. To install SuperSu it currently needs to be told to use systemless root on our phone. This can be forced by creating a hidden file called .supersu in /data with contents "SYSTEMLESS=true" (SuperSU Beta, 2016). You can do this in TWRP / Advanced / Terminal by entering the command "echo SYSTEMLESS=true>>/data/.supersu" There is also a flashable zip here in the forums that can do this. Just flash the SuperSU installer after this. There are many programs that can make the actual color corrections. An easy to use one is available from xda developer savoca here http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software-hacking/dev-kcal-advanced-color-control-t3032080 Kernel Adiutor available on the Play Store can also be used https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.grarak.kerneladiutor&hl=en
3. The Settings
In Settings / Display / Color Mode I set the color profile to Standard. In the Color Control app from savoca I left all settings at their default values except for setting green to 248 and blue to 237. This results in a more natural white point in my opinion. If anybody else finds settings that work well please share them in this thread.

If using LiveDisplay change the day color temperature to 5800k, otherwise in color correction set R, G, B to 100, 98, and 90.
So my Mi5 has a severe screen burn-in (image retention, ghosting, or whatever you wanna call it) and I've been looking for solutions for sometime, for all the ROMs.
So I suppose this thread will be useful to you guys too.
** The permanent solution is to replace the display **
** I will be not responsible for any damages caused to your handset by flashing custom ROMs and/or custom kernels or by any other means. I didn't develop any of these nor I have any affiliation with them. This is just a guide. Try these at your own risk. **
Solution 1 - Live display feature in LineageOS
This is the easiest and hassle free solution. Just flash LineageOS and use the Live display feature and adjust the RGB values to 90.
LOS 14.1
LOS 15.1
Solution 2 - KCAL
This is a free colour correction tool developed by @savoca.
To use this you must have a supported kernel & root. This supports AOSP ROMs (but didn't try it on every ROM though ...)
Just install the apk grant access , turn on 'colour service' & 'set on boot' options. Then adjust the RGB values to 220-230 (more or less depending on the severity of your burn-in) and save the changes.
KCAL official XDA thread
Solution 3 - Colour Changer Pro
This is a paid app. but it's the only app that I found which supports MIUI with stock kernel. It also requires root.
select a custom profile and adjust the RGB values to 220-230 (more or less depending on the severity of your burn-in) and turn on the profile.
Only problem that I found is that if you install a new app it resets the values to default so you have to activate it again.
The free version give you pro features for a few days so you can try it before you buy it.(adjusting RGB requires pro version)
Get it on google play
** I didn't test the effect on battery life when using KCAL and Colour Changer Pro but according to my experience they are very insignificant **
I hope this will be helpful to you guys as burn-ins are a widespread feature ( ugh ! .. sorry, problem) in mi5 devices.

My settings: fingerprint > screen off unlock > hide
Pick up phone to show indicator > off
Tap screen to show > off
After update to the new FW, I can unlock the phone with my right thumb, but not with the left one. This worked before the update. I tried adding a new fingerprint, but it did not help.

That's not exactly what I mean, you can see video below that pretty much explains my issue:
What I noticed, that delay is about halfed if I use standard Asus launcher, but it's still too slow. With Nova launcher it is as in the video.

I don't like solid color for control center background.in MIUI 11 it used to have blury effect & in MIUI 12 it is gone.
Is there any way to make it blury in MIUI 12 (Android 11)?
Not possible unless someone develops a tweak for that customization that doesn't break the ROM.
There is a apk in play store named MI controller. You can download it and tweak it. But you have to enable it again and again cause miui optimization disable it whenever you clear your recent apps
ASUS has officially released Android 13. Maybe it's good for the owners to share the experience.
This is what I read from the ASUS' support website:

17. Some 3rd party apps are not compatible with Android 13 yet
18. Upgrade system modes to the latest version, including "High performance", "Dynamic", "Durable" and "Ultra durable." Game Genie is also upgraded to the latest version, to allow quick switching of system modes in games.
Im on beta at Version WW-33.0210.0210.180 and if they don't broke anythink i can recommend upgrade to A13. It works much better
Good to hear. Just want do double-check, the upgrade won't erase anything, right? I understand it's always recommended to perform a backup first.
The upgrade won't erase anything, don't worry
Yea, A13 work perflecty
Confirmed working on the EU variant.
Of this update, what I like most is the possibility to shrink the enormous quick tiles to smaller icons. But the first time you boot Android 13 it's hard to tell the difference from the previous version.
I also updated to this firmware. It's great. Much smoother and less bugs (so far). Also, the small quick setting tiles are back!
Does it have the edge tool / sidebar which we see in Zenfone 9?

No, it REC button shows the same as on A12.
No need to activate it differently.
Thanks. I had to downgrade because it doesn't show for me. I tried googling it, but Google has kinda sucked for about two years now. Are there any troubleshooting guides for this?
