I am bit of a junkie when it comes to screen calibration and have spent most of my days researching about the technology on that part, so i am in the need for something to help me calibrate the screen on the sensation as there are a few things that are inaccurate which i would like to correct.
Is there any app or mod that i can do to adjust this on the sensation.... any help would be appreciated.
It's called screen adjuster in the market

Does this app run in the background to modify the screen or does it physically change it perminantly??
Still no gamma adjustment which is probably the most important feature needed.
I would really want this to.

I think it runs in the background

Yes it does run in the background but does no offer values that are required to fully calibrate the display properly, contrast and white balance values are not quite enough... Need to source a type of hack to modify values manually or mod etc etc.
I love to have this app as well because my screen shows it's over saturated. To much red

That would be great to have ability to use ICC profiles with Sensation and generate them with color calibration software and iOne.

Is there any way to change these values in the kernel directly? Using this app slows down my Gallery for example. If I switch between different images by sliding them I can clearly see a delay on the screen.
I need this app too!
Do you think with an app like de desidered one would have also better black?

Better black is a hard one to achieve as the deepness of the black is mainly down to the screen, led screens black are a lot better compared to the LCD screens in sensations. My girlfriend has a galaxy s2 and I envy the LED screen on it, the colours compared to the sensations LCD screen are amazing.

Why do people change the pixel density on phones? never really understood? Is it for aesthetic purposes or dev purposes?
It mimics a display with a higher resolution in the aspect of outing more content on the display but it does nothing to the clarity of text. The text clarity is still crisper on a higher resolution display and if you ask me, raising the pixel density actually makes text more blurry.

Thanks, but i mean how can it mimic a higher resolution?
EDIT: here's a video, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nqs8j13Mk8k
What's the point of doing this?
More pixels on the screen means more content without changing the physical size of the LCD.

OOOOOOOH. Ok i think I gotcha. But it just makes everything smaller, not higher resolution right?

Interesting. I thought you prefer Sensation screen over G2x screen because it has higher density.

Because it actually has more pixels. The g2x doesn't, so you are just making it seem like it does.
You can't magically put more pixels on a screen that has a set resolution.
I always change my pixel density. I use 5 columns and 6 rows on my home screens. At the stock density widgets and icons overlap. I like 190 with my G2X, now overlapping. I used 167 LCD density on my HD2. The most common drawback is that it can make some apps look odd or make your keyboard small. 190 works fine though and I have only noticed a few games in which the menu screen was scaled oddly.

I do prefer the Sensations display over the G2X display because not only does it have a higher density but also a higher resolution so text appears clearer and crisper. That's exactly what I said in the post you quoted in more words or less.

Ha. 190 works best. I haven't had any problems except Wifi Calling force closes, but if you enable it before, it will continue to activate with wifi.
I use 9x10 rows/columns on my homescreen!

Damn, that's crazy...8x9!
I thought I was using a lot of rows on my phones. I do 6x7 in my G2X @190 and 7x8 on my Sensation @stock density.

I tried changing it once on my G1.
I did not like it.
I just like it the way it is just fine. On this phone.

Ok i just started to notice this, tried a few different ROMS and it all is the same.
Its coming around the holidays and i really dont want my pictures to come out violet red like they are now. Can someone help me?
I know this sounds funny but i dont think im color blinded.. think my camera is
Looks like u have set Saturation hig in Camera settings.. try taking pics with default settigns with all to Zero..
And little bit of saturation is present even with Normal settings but not that much...
If u thing ur pics are not taking contrast pics then change settings..
ive tried that buddy, nothing works.. think its a defect
Didn't read thread properly, but that does look weird :S
that doesn't look natural, i think its a defect as well. Mine does not show red like that.
mine is same way
the car and valve cover supposed to be red.
valve cover is freshly painted so its as clean as it can get but came out pink.

I have got exactly the same problem. Initially I thought it could be fixed with some white balance or saturation settings but it is simply unfixable!! I'm color blind but even I feel insulted by the way red looks on pictures. (It must be the camera because the same object captured with my Panasonic camera and sent to the sensation looks perfect).
I wonder if any of the camera ports/mods that the developers are doing will fix this.
I didn't knew about this until now that I was reading this post. I went and took some pictures of anything red I saw and it's true, red colors change to something like pink or a little less red. I hope this can be fixed. :/
I have tied to take photo with red object. It look fine on my device.

The problem is the configuration of the self-illumination .. if you play with white balance, red will not look pink.
It's simple, Red + White = Pink
Pink on, stock camera, red on HDR+ camera.

all of these looked pink/cherry red to me instead of pure red..
this is what the valve cover should look like (color)
this is how it comes out on every picture regardless of lighting
heres the photos ive been looking for:
nottice also the quality is horrible on sensation even compared to less megapixeled HD2 camera.
first picture is taken with HD2 android
second picture is HTC sensation
a big difference
I compared the screen of my Sensation (rooted, virtous Inquisition) to the one of a friend (original) and saw, that the sceen is a little bit more green.
Is that normal or is my screen somehow damaged?
In addition to that my speaker sounds really bad, sometimes i cant understand what the other one says (i've alrady removed all the dust)... the one of my friend sound a lot better..
Is there any possibility to fix both of this or should i send my sensation in? Actually i dont want to give i away for a month or two.

here is a picture of both screens
There are several screen manufactorers for Sensation. Try to search the forum for instructions how to find out your screen manufacturer. And check if you and your friend have the same one.
Hey, since upgrading I've noticed that some apps font and such is blown up and not crisp anymore. Also the screen in general seems like its dropped a bit in resolution, almost like changing the resolution on a computer. Is this a known issue or is it just my mind paying tricks on me?
The rom is great by the way, thanks!

I feel that anything on the default LCD density of 240 is blown up. i always drop LCD density to 210 or 220.
Some apps are not compatible with ICS because its still a beta version

I have been having some issues with the autofocus either focusing too much or not enough as well as some of the photos not coming out as good as they should be. I read somewhere that a lot of that could be fixed by adjusting the settings. So what settings do you guys have your HTC One X camera settings set to for best all around pic n shoot?
I turn off face detection. Seems more responsive that way.
Everything else I leave the same
^ this
but I also have sharpness set to -1.
saturation -1 seems to give more realistic colors on mine
I knock down exposure to -1 when outside, seems to overexpose a little in hard light.

I have noticed that too. In bright sunlight, sometimes faces get blown out (overexposed).
