The stock app will only allow you to browse in portrait and stream in Landscape. This app is for those of us who do not want to be limited to only these two views. This app will now allow for the screen to automatically rotate when you rotate your phone. Now you can browse in landscape and stream in portrait [if you want...]
The attached files are modified versions of the stock market V1.4.1
I have edited some xml files to allow screen rotation while browsing or streaming.
I have also altered the loading screens to GREEN, ORANGE, PINK, BLACK, BLUE, and the original Netflix RED.
The icons are created by me and correspond to the color of the loading screens. Nothing else has been touched.

Greatest. Thing. Ever.
Ohhh, yeah... that's the ticket.
Greatest. Thing. Ever.
Yours was the first app to really work for me, and I tried about 4 different versions (none were yours, however). This afternoon, I was at a 245/768 min/max CPU setting, and would get audio but no video at all, with those earlier apps.
I guess I could retry a 'stock' one, but this is working, so why would I break it? Looks as great as one should expect on a 480x800 screen, too.
Nice, straightforward work from someone who knows his stuff. Awesome!
Now I just need to play with the CPU frequencies so I can get good video AND battery life...
lol thanks for the app, doesnt work on my iconia still but its always nice to see progress
btw, since the other thread got jacked to hell and back, any idea what error 12001 means ? andddd i like your "sorry we could not reach the Dblfstr service." love how you changed Netflix to you
Ok. Dumb question. What does rotation enabled do?
When I play something on the market app, it turns landscape when the show starts.
What does this do differently?

I need to get saltier with the CyanogenMod CPU settings. "POWERSAVE" governor and 768MHz gives an acceptable picture with some frameloss, so I need to just figure out what will still conserve power when I'm wearing the phone, but kick it up reasonably high when I'm Netflixing/Youtubing/DOSBOXing.
I also have yet to try it on 3/4G. Right now it's connected to cable through my WiFi (but I do plan to use WiFi most often so I don't run up a massive mobile data bill).

Oh, surprised that's a big deal to people.
Does the rotation work by your system auto rotate setting or does the app read the accelerometer itself?

Yes I did that for one reason only. Still the same error.
From what I can tell it has to do with the autmation.html, the text.js and the nrdp.js files. The automation is looking in the nrdp file for what the device is, and it is returning undefined. I have been looking around but nothing is staring me in the face as to how it can be resolved.
I run the script on my computer and get the same error. I will keep looking though.

The modification tells the app to read the accelerometer, opposed to being a hard-coded "landscape" and "portrait". It is a simple edit of some .xml files but it does the trick.
I believe IF the rotate settings are turned OFF in system settings the app will respond accordingly, I have not tested.
Edit: It is mainly for browsing in landscape (most useful on tablets), but I changed the streaming option too. I may enable rotation in browsing alone and leave streaming to fixed landscape. For those who are annoyed by the rotation.
Anyone getting service error .. using nexus 1
Love the Black! But I also get the 12001 error on my Thrive. The Keep up the great work man!

It allows you to rotate the app. I particularly enjoy the 270 degree rotation when I'm watching a movie with my phone charging.

So, this is my first attempt at programming for android. Well, my first attempt at java as well. Regardless, I am pleased with the outcome and though I would share. As a father of four, I always like keeping a photo of my kids handy. The gallery is nice, but not for a quick, "Have you seen my daughter recently" situation. So I went to the market... Surprisingly I didn't find much. At least not much that did what I wanted. So, here is what I wanted and what I currently have.
Application Website is http://deanstudios.net/dev/frameme
Features:
1x1, 1x2, 2x1, 2x2 Widgets
full screen image when clicked
multiple widgets supported
selectable picture frames
Crop image when selecting
Full widget preview on your background
Click on one widget - Fling to the others
Click on widget and fling through images in user selected directory
timed rotation of widget image in directory mode
Reconfigure existing widgets
Atrix external SDCard support
Frameless image

Issues:
Test it out and let me know if you find something else.
ToDo's:
Add additional frames
Add better support for hdpi devices. Need something to test with though.
As you can see it is pretty simple and straight forward. For me, it also does the job well. I have other ideas for it, feature wise as well as new frames. I am hoping to have time to implement them. However, I do have four kids so we will see. If there is interest, I might throw it into the market as well. For now, you can download it at the links below.
If you enjoy this app and want to support me it is available in the market for $0.99. It will always be available here free so don't worry. The QR Code below will take you directly to the market page. If you have bought it and enjoy it please consider rating it.
I would love to hear what you think and what device you are using it on if you have something other than a Hero. As it is, it was designed to support mdpi and android 2.1. Enjoy!
Updates:
FrameMe 1.3.5 - Several other memory related issues have been corrected. There is also the addition of a "No Frame" option when choosing your frame. An about screen was also added and available from the app drawer as well as the full screen image menu. Support for the Atrix's external sd card was also included.
FrameMe 1.3.3 - Added additional work-around's for the "out-of-memory" issues. Should most of the FCs due to bitmap creation and use. Hopefully you notice a difference.
FrameMe 1.3.1 - I am sorry 1.3.1 took so long to get here. There are some serious bugs in the Droid X gallery that I found in the last release. It took me a while to find a solution that didn't break all the other phones out there. Now 1.3.1 works on Droid X as well. (at least with my testers). I also added three new frames including one to go along with HTC Sense or similar design. Hope you enjoy.
FrameMe 1.3.0 - Okay, so a lot of you have been asking for a 2x2 widget and cycling of the image in the widget. Well, 1.3.0 brings all that and a little more. Not only was a 2x2 widget added, but a 1x2 and 2x1 as well. For those widgets using the directory option you can also have the displayed image cycle through images in the directory at a user set interval. Under the hood there has been several performance optimizations and that pesky Galaxy S bug is now dead as well. It should work on all the phones in the series. Also, landscape images are shows in landscape mode so you don't loose half the image. For now, that is about it. Again, I am sorry you have to redo all your widgets but it was necessary to support different widget sizes.
FrameMe 1.2.0 - Version 1.2.0 has had quite a bit of code rewritten. For starters the configuration screen now shows a full widget preview on your own wallpaper. The frame selection is now graphical and pressing menu when a widget is clicked provides an option to reconfigure that widget. There have also been some minor bugs squashed in the directory mode functionality.NOTES: Database has changed, please remove widgets before upgrading.
FrameMe 1.1.2 - Addition of several new frames. Directory mode was tweaked to allow the thumbnail image to be used as the first image when clicked.NOTES: For Directory enabled widgets, the thumbnail image will be in the rotation twice if it was selected from an image within the target directory.
FrameMe 1.1.1 - Corrected the memory issues in the directory option. It now can support unlimited images in a directory.NOTES: Images are loaded and scaled in real time. To improve fling speed size your images appropriate for your phone. It will work regardless though.
FrameMe 1.1.0 - Added the ever requested directory option. Now you can bind a widget to a directory on your sdcard and when clicked it will fling between the images in that directory. Thumbnail image is not required to be in that directory and still shows in the fling list for other non-directory widgets. NOTES: This modifies the database so you will need to re-add you current widgets. Also, it is easy to run out of memory when pointing to a directory with lots of images. It does resize though to help with this.
FrameMe 1.0.1 - Added the Rustic Edge frame & code cleanup.
FrameMe 1.0.0 - Corrected a few bugs with canceling out of the config screen without selecting an image. Removed the fling action if only one widget (image) is available. Code cleanup.
KidFrame 1.3 - Added a few more frames. Also made it so if you click on an widget to get a full size image you can now fling (swipe) and it will cycle through all widget images without having to close and click again. First image delays a little while it is processing and I am not completely sold on it yet. Also added my icon in the correct place for hdpi devices.
KidFrame 1.2 - Created resized thumbnails for display on the widget. This should help with memory resources and allow the number of widgets to be almost unlimited. Also added a third frame (was just playing with frames).
1.1 - Link above has been updated with the newest version: Code has been rewritten to us a database back-end. Configurations now are kept after a reboot. The selected image is now user cropped and resized so it should not limit the number of widgets you can add. Hopefully there will be more to come.
Great app. Thanks. I had an idea to fill a 4x4 screen with images of my family for easy viewing but using ADW the 6th+ widget fail to load. So I will go with 4-5. Cant wait to see what other frames you have in mind.

Looks like this may be a memory issue. If you resize your images manually to around 600 on the longest side you should be able to use as many as you want. I played around and had issues with camera images (5mp) not loading but smaller (640x480) images would just fine.
I will look into actually resizing the images for the thumbnails. This should help. Thanks for the feed back. I am glad you like it.
I'm glad I stumbled across this! Thanks much!

Any way you can make the crop box be the same dimensions as the screen so we can tell what will show up. with the current setup you have to center the image so it show when you open it.

I can, and I had actually tested it that way. The problem is that if you select an image based on the portrait view it never works correctly in landscape. With the 1:1 square, if you center what you want to focus on it works in both modes.
I realize that many people never use a landscape home (many devices don't support it) but many of us do. If enough people make the request, I can change it though.... or if you device doesn't support a landscape home screen then maybe I could make you a custom build... It might be a few days though.
Thank you, great job, working great on the evo.

Hey, on you EVO does it have a custom icon or the little green android stock thing? I think I need to make an hdpi icon...
It is the stock icon, Here are some screens from the evo:
The only thing I noticed & im not sure if it is because of the evo's screen size or not, but some of the pic gets cut off, well not the full size pic you know, I have to stretch & center it when cropping...

Clockr v1.5.1 is now available from the Android Market.
NOW UPDATED TO VERSION 1.5.1!!

}
What is Clockr?
Clockr is a simple home-screen widget that displays the current time in a readable text format.
While it is simple in design, it is packed full of customisation options to make it look just the way you want it to.
Why did I make Clockr?
I have always been a fan of minimalism. I like to have a clean home-screen. Since there was no other widgets available that presented the current time in a way that I wanted it, I decided to make my own widget.
Will it work on my device?
At the moment, Clockr is supported on all current devices running 2.1+. Soon I will have support for earlier versions of Android, but I haven't been able to test this yet. It was designed with a 480x800 screen in mind, but this isn't to say it wont work on other sizes (again, it is something I haven't tested).
Where can I get Clockr?
Clockr is again available as a free download from the Android Market. You can find it by searching for "clockr".
QR code, its click-able if you are on your phone (thanks to Wallla and excedio for helping me out):
I hope you enjoy my widget!
Thanks
- xaffron (One More Clock) for his help with services and his nifty notification trick.
- zappatilias (BattStatt) for the initial inspiration and for the Color picker suggestion!
- ralfoide (24 Clock) learnt a lot by studying his code.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: How do I use this widget? Every time I click the icon it just brings up a stupid information screen.
A: Scroll down to the next post, I have provided a simple guide to installing Clockr/Clockr Evolution on your Home screen.
Q: Why does a clock need permission to read phone state?
A: Apparently it doesn't, this has been removed in the latest versions available on the Android Market. If you are being asked for this permission by my app, you are using an older version, please update. - Thanks zappatilias
Q: Some other clocks don't use a service, why does yours?
A: Clockr will only use a service if you enable "Force Update". If you are having problems with the clock going out of sync, you might need to enable "Force Update" as most people suggest this is the best method. In fact I have tested Clockr against other similar clocks using Watchdog real-time profiling and I have found Clockr (With Force Update enable) to be one of the most efficient of all of them in regard to actual CPU usage. I encourage you to test this yourself, you will be surprised at how little this app uses.
Q: Why does it put an item in my notification bar if I select "Force Update"?
A: Since Android 2.0, there have been changes to how services are handled. To keep a service from not being killed by the Android OS, you need to set it to run in the foreground. Since a clock widget needs to be constantly updating itself every new minute that passes, we don't want the OS to kill it off at the wrong time. Now, by setting itself in the foreground, it doesn't mean it's actually working any harder, it just means that when the OS decides to kill off services, it will leave it alone.
In the old days (pre-2.0), it was possible to start a service and flag it as "foreground" and that was it. To do the same thing now, Android requires that a notification is shown to the user at all times. I've hidden it as much as possible (thanks to xaffron for his suggestions), but if you don't like the idea of a notification sitting there, you can switch "Force Update" off.
Q: When will you add this feature...
A: At the moment, I am working on including many features. If you have any suggestions, feel free to post them in this thread but I can only work on so many things at once, I am only human!
Q: Why don't you respond to my complaint in the market.
A: While I do read every comment on the market, if you have a bug/issue, it is best to write about it here or even email me via the email address on the Clockr Market page (which is: [email protected]). Please try to provide as much information as possible, I'm not psychic. If you can include what phone you have, which rom (official/custom) you are using, how did the bug occur, what were you doing, etc... it will help me greatly to find the problem.
Q: Will you be adding support for App2SD
A: No. Please stop asking, you're making yourself look silly. App2SD does not and never will work for widgets.

How to install the Clockr Widget on your homescreen
NOTE: This isn't the only way to add widgets to your Home screen, but it is one way that is easy to explain.
FIRST STEP
You need to start from your Home screen. This is what a basic Home screen looks like:
It has widgets and other things that you can move around.
You need to make sure that you have room for Clockr to be installed (It does take up a whole row of space).
SECOND STEP
Press the "Menu" button on your phone so that this pops up:
Now you need to select the "Add" option (the one I have highlighted).
THIRD STEP
Now this dialog box will pop up:
Select the option to add "Widgets" (highlighted in the image).
FOURTH STEP
Now a list of available widgets will appear:
Select the Clockr widget that you wish to install.
FIFTH STEP
If you followed these simple steps, Clockr will now be added to your Home screen:
If you tap on the widget, you can then change any of the custom options to make it look how you want it to look.
Hope this has helped you, if you are still having trouble, let me know!

Future version releases will have basic options to change text color, size, background and other necessary things. I just wanted to get this released so people can stop asking me about it. ^_^
Can't wait to see what you can make out of it!
Added some mods. Uploaded to here, and on my blog's downloads section
Zehro and Hollywooder thanks for all your efforts!!
looks like an awesome app, just now added to my screen its much better than tjam in my opinion!
Looks cool, I'll try it out later.
Oh, how about localised versions? One thing that always bugged me about Tajm is that it is only English and am/pm, I'd very much love a widget like that that reads e.g. "ZwölfSiebenundZwanzig"

I hope to be able to add this soon.
I'm still very new to Android Development, just learning my way around. At the moment, I am working to provide a configuration screen that allows you to change font size, font color and also add a background image (similar launcherpro dock). After this, I think localisation will be my next goal.
Man, I was totally lurk-stocking the Nexus boards waitin for this. Great work man, thank you!
Freakin' awesome! I use it on my EVO and it looks nasty! I love it!
You know what would go good w/ this? "Dater" "tuesdayNOVEMBERtwenty-fifth"

it would be cool if it were possible to install all three mods as separate widgets rather than having to replace one after the other when trying to switch between mods
Thanks for the comments everyone! I'm glad people are liking it, hopefully you will like it even more once I improve it!
The reason it updates a bit slowly is because I didn't want it to be a big drain on battery life. I can always change it so it updates more frequently, but for my first android app release, I didn't want people screaming at me because my app is killing their device. =P
Tonight I have been trying to workout how to get this configuration page to work properly. As soon as that clicks in place, you'll be able to switch font colors and all the other things easily.
I do plan to make other widgets in a similar style (I like the idea of dater, but the name... sounds a bit like a dating service! LOL). Right now, I'm just trying to focus on getting this configuration screen working and then it will be easy for me to apply my application to other ideas.
For now, I gotta sleep. Its after 2am here and I have to work tomorrow! >.<

Hi there. I can see, what you have made awesome thing. And i came with one question, can you make multilingual? Or you can post some files, where words of hours are saved, so i can manually translate them to my language. Lithuania.
Sweet job!
Great clock, this one is the one i've been looking for!!!
Just waiting for the tans background so i can have White on black background!
This theme is created specifically for CyanogenMOD 6.1.1 and FreeX10 users!!!
This will run on every single 2.2 AOSP ROM posted here including standard Froyo 2.2.1 and Cyanogen 6.1.1!!
I do not take credit for any of the graphics used in this theme!!! It is a hybrid of Sempiternal's X FX10 theme and a user named RoLa's theme from CyanogenMOD forum. Big thanks to both of them for all the hard work they have put into creating both these themes!!! I also owe a big thank you to mmarjan for testing Nexus One Cyanogen themes on the X10 to find out they work for us!!
****NOTE****
I have gotten several requests from users asking to use certain aspects of this theme in their theme, so I thought I should be more specific with who created what aspect of this theme so anyone interested can get permission from the correct people.
Created by Sempiternal:
All system graphics not contained in an app (icons, desktop, notification bar, etc)
Created by RoLa:
all apps included with the download, including system apps (dialer, clock, etc) with the exception of Pandora app
Created by Lightyear:
Pandora custom app, and I married the two themes by copying system graphics files over from Sempiternal's theme to RoLa's theme.
For anyone who is interested in the CM tweaks file I'm currently using I have attached it at the bottom of this post. This will complete the theme, including battery percentage, etc, just like shown in my screenshots. Extract the rar file directly to your SD card's root folder. The filepath should look like this:
SD card>CMtheme>Cyan_Extreme.xml
Open android settings and navigate to CM settings>user interface>tweaks extras>select a theme....select cyan_extreme

Hi lightyear420
Awsome theme my friend, i love the dialer, i have been testing roms and themes all day but i have to give this a try, thanks for sharing, i owe you a thanks button, i am up to my limit today.

lol...me too!! I'm overwhelmed with all the CM themes popping up all of a sudden!! As soon as word spread that Nexus One CM themes work it seems the forum has exploded with posts of ported themes lol
I'm working on another one right now....hopefully I'll have it posted tonight or tomorrow
BTW, I've found that if you edit a theme created for CM it will also work with basic froyo roms, as well!! You just need to leave the froyo images in tact and add the CM images, as well....some images like the notification bar may have two of the same image with different filenames, but this will make it compatible with both roms. Just thought I should share that since you are also working on CM themes. It's always nice to have the same download no matter what rom you use, IMHO. It leads to less confusion by noobs in the long run.
I wrote that in a very confusing way, but if you crack open my theme you will see what I mean lol Some images are in there twice but have two different names...one image will work with froyo and the other will work with CM This may seem pointless as it takes up extra space in the NAND, but it improves compatibility.

You explained very nicely and what a great idea, i am no themer or Dev, i just like good themes, we are going to be spoilt for choice by the weekend, i will pass on your idea to sicNside.
I look foreward to your next venture, going to play with extreme for abit-thanks mate.
the dailer phonebook was really laggy for me on beta3 tho. since it kind of overlaps your home screen.
and the notification pulldown had a big white space in it where it says at&t.
and the lock screen had a grey area with a plus sign at the top, im assuming u can add something there but who knows how ?
also the menu buttom was so ugly. it showed up grey with bright green text ?
i removed it because of these problems .

This may be because you are not using cyanogen tweak settings.
I would appreciate it if you wouldn't mind giving it another shot after installing the settings.apk
Please try installing this settings.apk file. Try playing with the skin colors in the user interface menu. This should solve your problems
The IC menu is something I am working on. I haven't figured out which image needs changing to get that corrected properly. Text color is also part of that issue
works great, beautiful icons, but i cant see notifications, because the text color is black, tried to change the color but donst work
good job!
Updated to v1.1. Those of you running FreeX10 roms or any rom without cyanogen settings may wish to update since the new version contains the Cyanogen settings apk's.
For those already running cyanogen roms this is simply a minor fix with a few images/icons I overlooked on the initial release....I'm a perfectionist, so please bear with me lol
Some may find the new custom pandora app a nice addition...see here for screenshots:

You are one of the users who would benefit from the CM tweaks included in the newest update Please give this a shot....notification text color can be changed with the CM settings in the android menu.
Well maybe a have some kind of bug because I got CM tools and I tried to change the color and donst work, the funny thing is I change the color in other themes and the color of the notifications work perfectly, anyway thx for help
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
I just tried again myself, just to be sure....are you positive you are changing the correct item??
menu>settings>cm settings>user interface>notifications colors>notifications ticker color
FYI:
you can also change the color of the notification bar if the text color will not change for you
I'm trying this theme and I must say its very nice but a couple of things which could do with being changed imo...
When you press menu on the home screen it comes up as white with bright green text, the you tube is also green and black and the xml file wont download properly, I can only get a unfinished download but overall very nice job
Sent from my Froyo'd x10i running Cyanogen Mod 6.1.1
yep, and the default set color is white (#ffffffff), i change the color and nothing change, but dont worry, u do a great job, and the bright green text in menu dosnt like to much, You might consider changing that
thx for ur attention !

I did not make the font green...I downloaded a Nexus One CM theme and edited it to get the one we have here. I have searched everywhere for a set of instructions on where to find the file to edit the system font, and I can't, for the life of me, figure it out lol
If anyone could please help me with this I would be VERY appreciative lol It's driving me nuts having green text in every single menu
Thanks for all the praise, guys!!
love it by far my favorite theme great great job

This works really well and I love the interface. My only gripe so far is that it's not obvious when the background is transparent. It would be great if it was checkerboard instead of white (like in the layer view).
Also, I'd like to see support for images of different sizes and zooming too if possible! I know this is likely to add to the complexity of the app, but really think these are features you need.
It is the best painting app for android so far imo. But I think it needs a landscape image size, a better paint fill, and an option to have the cursor slightly above your finger so that your finger isn't covering it. But the number one thing it needs is the fill. Filling an object makes little white outline of the color.
Btw I'm using HTC g2 and it doesn't lag or anything, runs very well.

You can pinch to zoom at the moment if that's what you mean. Different images sizes is definitely on my feature list, including landscape canvases.

Awesome, thanks for the feedback! Yes, landscape is a top priority feature. I'll be adding offset drawing too. You're right, the fill bucket does need some work.
oh man, i was looking for something like this for my evo and xoom! i'll try it out over the next couple of days and provide my thoughts

I just spent the last half hour playing with this on my EVO. Definitely something that the Android world is lacking!
As I use this app more and more in the hour, I realize how much I love it and I can give a bit more critisism. I now don't really care about the fill tool as painting it manually is a lot more fun and gives a nice texture.
I also think the eraser and brush should have seperate setting, so a big feather brush for erasing, and the normal brush for painting. There was more things I realized but can't think of them right now, I will edit this post when I remember.

OK, it's on my list of things to do next. Keep the critique coming if you think of anything else! I want to make this the best painting app on Android.
Great picture by the way. I like the shading. Have you tried playing with the filters? Emboss is quite fun for extra texture.
Gonna give it a test now
Great!! Used it on the Atrix, it works really well! Needs a bit more accurate drawing & erasing (as it was suggested a couple of posts earlier), your finger covers the line as it is now. Will post more ideas soon.
Great potential!!
thanks, awesome job mate!
i don't have to go back WinMo to get all nice drawing apps
works very fast and fluid on HD2, running MIUI 1.4.22.
size isn't an issue on 4.3 inches
maybe "menu" button features could be ipmlemented in bottom bar with "drag up" gesture much like music player on miui if you know what i'm saying.
anyways, excellent for beta, get it to market with final polish i'd shure be willing to pay couple of $$ for it. and offer free verion without layers forcasual users, with ads.
keep up with great work!

maybe "menu" button features could be ipmlemented in bottom bar with "drag up" gesture much like music player on miui if you know what i'm saying.

Thanks for the suggestion. I'd love to have an extra toolbar button for the menu because I know from app reviews that some users don't know where to look for extra options. I want to make sure all the features are easy to find.
anyways, excellent for beta, get it to market with final polish i'd shure be willing to pay couple of $$ for it. and offer free verion without layers forcasual users, with ads.

Thanks! That's roughly my plan. I think it'll be best to have layers in the free version though so people that haven't used layers before can get a feel for how useful they are.
Loving this
Super fast and accurate on my Vibrant. Love the gestures. Drawing tools are neat and the filters are fun. Options are all easily accessible.
Took a minute to figure out how to delete a layer (tried long pressing on the layer). Wanted to save the image with a name - not just save it generically. Also, duplicating an image could be nicer if I didn't have to open the image to "save a copy."
Very awesome drawing app! Can't wait to let my kids play with it, too.

I decided to avoid long pressing for layer options because my initial testers found this hard to discover.

I'll have a think about how names can be assigned to files without annoying users with pop-ups each time they export a file. What was the reason you wanted to name your file? I could add a menu option that lets you give your painting a title and exported files could be named after this. Would that help?

I'm planning to add a "copy image" operation to the gallery screen which should fix this.

Awesome, thanks for all the feedback! I'd be really interested to know how your younger users find it too.
Awesome app. Running perfectly on my Galaxy S
Awesome app,bro
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA Premium App
Works great on Xoom except Xoom is more of a landscape device and no landscape support yet, other then that its very nice
Works well on Acer iconia A500 on 3.0.1 - great paint app!
So im in the boat with the people that complain about the washed out colours, i come from a redmagic 7 pro and the colours are so much better out of the box than the pixel.
Looking around some people seemingly discovered that might be related to a HDR bug, as when playing hdr videos on YT the colours pop up nicely.
Well, i've been playing around and i think i discovered a bug that fixes this (at least i think).
You need CF.lumen (we are not going to use it as intended) and going to the accessibility colour options.
-First open CF.lumen and configure the timezone etc
-Open the master filter mode and select custom but dont change anything and save it.
-Without closing CF.lumen, go to Accessibility options > Color and motion > Color correction.
-Here, tap on Use color correction. You should imediatly notice that the actual color correction is not being applied but the colors now pop up more.

}
(Notice that the feature is enabled but the colours did not change)
Now the screen has a lot nicer colors and the weird dullness/yellow tint is gone.
I adjusted the RGB values a tiny bit to my likeness, but honestly i dont think its necessary.
This is clearly some weird interaction between CF.lumen and the color correction filters and i dont know how stable this is or if its going to cause any issues down the line.
Seeing how the color mode dissapears when a color correction filter is applied and that the screen looks the same as when a HDR YT video is played, I believe HDR is disabled for those corrections, having CF.lumen enabled does not allow the color hue to change but HDR is disabled anyway.
There might be a terminal command or something less finicky to disable HDR, but i did not find anything with such aparent improvement as this weird workaround.
Please let me know if you managed to make it work and if you know what might be really happening there.
(Those steps require root and im clearly exploiting a weird interaction between a root app and system settings, so this might be dangerous and i'm not responsible to any damage on your devices resulting of attempting this)
I would return it. You simply can't accurately calibrate it by eye even at one refresh rate frequency. Brightness and frequency variables make it completely impossible to do. If the color calibration is off even a little, gamma calibration is exponentially skewed.

For a software issue?
I have 3 more oled devices and with this bug and while playing HDR content the colours are extremely close across, so i dont see how replacing hardware would solve the HDR software issue...

Is it software or firmware? The color calibration needs to be accurate from the factory. If it's a 3rd party player that's the issue, than that's the problem if the calibration is otherwise accurate.
Either way you can't dial it in by eye even with excellent color perception to the degree of calibration it needs to be at.

I dont know, but if i cant see the difference with my naked eye thenwhy bother?
I'm happy how the display looks now, so im not going to return it, i see basically no difference with my other oled devices.
If you're rooted, you can use Color Changer Lite or Pro (from Omega Centauri Software in the Play Store) to adjust colors as you would like. It works great.

Hey, CF.lumen does the same, the thing is that no matter how much you try to adjust it it never looks good, unless you use this bug to disable(?) HDR.

Actually I think CF.lumen just applies a color filter overlay. Color Changer actually changes the RGB, Hue, and Saturation parameters. As far as the HDR goes, I wouldn't know. I don't own the P7P, but I'm considering getting it.

No, CF.lumen does not apply overlays. Also, if it only did that, i dont think the bug i found would work at all.

According to the Github page it does. Even the Play Store app page shows screenshots of overlayed images. That is also what "color correction" does.

That is what I sort of suspected, but I thought that at one time I had tried rooted CF and it didn't do much better. If I do get the P7P, I will definitely be checking out the rooted version of CF to confirm or deny that suspicion. Thanks.

Interesting, CF.lumen was crashing whenever I tried to enter Master Filter Mode. I will try Colour Changer

This happens becasue you did not set up the location, just above the color master mode.

Ohhhh, yup thanks so much!!
I have a P7pro and I notice when I tilt the display (vertically), that the whites become almost pink. Can this be corrected or is it just a problem of the poor quality of the display?
That sounds like a screen defect. It happens sometimes with OLED screens. P7P does not have the best screen, but mine didn't do that noticeably.
however I contacted assistance and they told me that it is normal for it to change color when the angle of the display changes (I replied that I haven't seen displays like this even in €300 cell phones...then he closed my call face chat )..
but I feel teased .. other than display top
