OnePlus display color temperature/white balance - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I want to get more cold color temperature. Also overall white balance - everything seems to be too warm and yellow. I can't change this using CM color Hue setting, because it doesn't change white balance, it only makes all colors to be weird. Also I found display when using revovery (for example , twrp), screen seems to be more cold color, no warm no yellow and they say Color OS has colder display too.
So it this some kernel related setting, etc? Some kind of hidden system configuration (build.prop or similar files)? How can I force colors to be colder, how can I change white balance. This is because that yellow colors are very annoying for me. Did you experienced the same?

[Q] Low image quality?

I've suspected for a while that my phone has issues with it's colors, because I can't seem to use any background without it pixelating (text mostly) or shows very unsmooth color transitions from black to white.
Whenever I select an image for wallpaper, the part outside the orange area has a browning overlay on the colors that just looks wrong.
Images full of colors look very good, it's the black and white ones with fading from dark to bright that looks horrible.
Could someone do me a favor and download this image, set it as background, and tell me if it looks clear and good on your screen, and the text looks good.

It seems like I keep running into problems with this phone
Thanks in advance.

Adaptive Display changing white points in different light.

Hey guys, I was using my phone browsing the web when suddenly the white point changed! The screen turned slightly purple and I think it is due to Samsung's adaptive display and my purple LIFX bulbs.
Here is a video link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujVIFA5LESQ
Any one notice this with their S6? Its running Marshmallow if you guys were wondering.
After seen your video , i tested , and with the purple color in the background , the white colour get a little bit darker , when u look in recent apps it becomes again white. tried with other colors and white didn`t changed.

Temporary fix for incorrect display of color saturation

Just a heads up to everyone who has an S10e The color saturation of the screen even when Vivid is enabled doesn't display the saturation correctly... To fix this "enable blue light filter" and set it at the lowest possible then go back and look at a picture, you will see how it is no longer washed out.
You can see the correct color saturation with "blue light filter" off while in the recent apps screen but once you return to the image it washes out. I figured out applying "blue light filter" corrects it for now!
I hope this helps!!!
I assume they are going to fix this in a future update. Cheers! ?

Seleting vivid to me doesn't do what it should be doing.
I have found that applying "blue light filter" and setting it's effect to minimum fixes the color saturation and reverses the washed out look on images. Another way is to go into visibility enhancements -> color adjustment -> then either apply a filter there like "Tritan" or "personalize color" and follow the steps. To me I cannot see any difference between the above steps or just simply applying "blue light filter" set to minimum. To me both look to correct the color saturation about the same.

Hey is this happening after the latest update or its happening right out of the box
Out of the box. Having it too
We should write to Samsung about this so they could release an update guys !
Good catch!
Now I know the reason why my Motorola Z3 Play displays beautiful colors when browsing my pictures and the S10e looks dull.
I thought Motorola's AMOLED display is oversaturated. It turns out that there is a bug in the display of the S10e.
Thanks for this. I just applied blue light filter and now it's fixed.
I don't notice a huge difference
Can someone tell me how to see how Natural & Vivid are washed out?
It makes quite a bit of difference on natural. By default white looks kind of yellowish. By enabling the blue light filter on minimal it looks like theres actually more blue added to the color balance. Like the default has a blue light filter applied that's stronger and it gets unset by the filter.
May be that it's by design though. They did make a point that the s10's displays have 30% or so less blue light because it's better for health.
Before I had the screen set to vivid, temp centered and then the green slider all the way to the left and the red slider almost all the way to the left. And the blue slider all the way to the right. This seems like a much better color balance than the default as well. Offcourse you do get the oversatured old style 'Samsung' colors this way. It makes the whites seem a lot whiter.
I also noticed this when I compared the displays of my S8 side by side my new S10e. I used the same content and the colour saturation on the s10e was noticeably duller. The blue light filter trick on lowest seems to have resolved it for me also.
I'll have to tinker with the vivid colour channel settings for fun to see if that does the same.
Good catch
have you Tried using the use sRGB option in developer options?

Grey Color Issue with 90hz

Does anyone notice that the dark colors especially grey get significantly brighter when using 90hz compared to 60 hz. It's very annoying and can be seen when using the dark mode on WhatsApp or the dark mode of the phone and pulling down the notification shade. The greys become way too bright and the display seems washed out:crying:
Grey looks normal to me, Oxygen 11 has more grey element which i personally like

Question Colored "G" logo at boot

So the normal G logo that appears during boot up is black and white. There's a color version showing up for a second before that.
Sometimes though the color one persists for several seconds while booting my device. What's the significance of this?
I´m not too sure, but I think it has something to do with Material colors. Are your colors black & white?
Material colors before boot? Weird. But no they're not
I find this is the case when you boot following a Security update or Google Play system update.
Normal boot ups the 'G' will be matched to whatever your material colours are set to (usually based on wallpaper).
Following an update I usually observe the official Google colours 'G' (red, yellow, green, blue) displayed for a period of time - likely while applying the changes in the update as these boots take slightly longer.
Ah, the update part makes sense. I think there was a Play services update these days so it matches.
Strange thing is though, my wallpaper is all deep purple and some red, not really the b&w of the boot logo I have... I'll try changing wallpaper and observe, but I think it was always b&w for me!
How do you change the material colors? I really don't like the washed out pastel colors.
