[CM12/12.1-UPDATED] S4 Display Color Profiles for CyanogenMod 11, 12, 12.1

### CM12(.1) UPDATE ### (see bottom)
Hey Folks,
are you also tired of the oversaturated colors of the S4 amoled display??
I found out that the S4minisettings.apk, that was originally developed for the S4 Mini by @F4k to regulate the saturation and other colour concerning features, does the job for the S4 aswell! It works very similar to the colour profiles built into samsung stock roms.
After installation you can find a new settings option "advanced settings" in systemsettings/display just like they're are built in into the carbon roms.
Installation:
Download the apk from the link below.
Then you have to manually put the s4minisettings.apk to /system/app and after that it's very important to set ownership and permissions as follows:
Owner: root, root
Permissions: rw,r,r (644)
reboot!
The main option to reduce the saturation is called "Mode - Set the mDNIe mode". I choose "natural" and the oversaturation of the display is gone!
Some other options don't apply until you switch screen off an on once.

all thanks go to @F4k for creating this nice apk!
###CM12(.1)-Instructions###
So, f4k made a new lollipop version of this tool S4MiniSettings and built it into his S4 Mini cm12 rom. I extracted it and offer it to you for download.
Instructions:
- extract zip
- copy the folder "S4Minisettings" to /system/app folder
- set permissions of the folder to rwxr-xr-x (755), the apk to rw-r--r-- (644)
- reboot
- after reboot there is a new icon in the app drawer
- if you prefered the setting "natural" from the kitkat version, now choose "movie"
Notes:
- Important: SELinux level higher than "strikt"/"enforcing" is needed to write to system folder and/or set permissions, and the apk to be loaded at boot. Custom kernels like Alucard mostly got SELinux set to "moderat".
- Don't be confused about the app name - it does work with the S4 - definitely!

Doesn't S4 4.4.2 have this by default? I can do same changes through my Display settings - no need for additional apk.

I use kernel perseus to better experience with real colors.

The "S4" has this by default in the Touchwiz ROM it ships with, but this thread is about CyanogenMod.
Speaking of which, it possible to adjust color cast in CM11 on my Note 8.0 under Display/Display Advanced. Maybe this feature will also come to CM11 on the i9500.

When i reboot nothing happends :/ i have everything like you said, bit it doestn appear. I have cm 11 snapshot m3, help?

Or does this only work on nightlies build?? :crying:

Did you set the permissions and owner correctly? Otherwise it can't work.

the permissions are exactly like you have it, but still its not working. It doesnt scan my apps when I reboot :/. Also worth noting, every time i go to see the permissions or change it it says in a square. "The current file system is read-only. Do you want to remount as read-write and continue the operation?" I click yes, then i change it rw--r--r and reboot and nothing happends. When I go check it againg is the same prosses all over againg.
Edit: Also, in my settings I have Display & lights instead of "Display" as the video shows. I know nothing and I understand this may be a dumb question, but it may had to do with the problem? sorry.

Over-saturated colours of S4? Oh Dear Lord :|

Which file manager do you use? "root explorer" i.e. has sometimes problems and sais it's write protected. I use "root browser" which does a good job, mostly.

This apk requires way too many permissions for the task it performs... Suspicious...
There is another option: KTweaker tool which comes with Ktoonsez kernels also allows to modify this setting (works with CM11 kernel, not only with Ktoonsez) .
After all this setting can be set via kernel "/sys" filesystem. From terminal emulator execute command:
Code:
echo 2 > /sys/class/mdnie/mdnie/mode
To make this change permanent (survive reboots and ROM updates) one may use init.d supplied with CM11, and create additional script in /data/local/ (in this location script will survive CM update).
Seems like init.d in CM11-M10 doesn't start scripts in /data/local/userinit.d/ directory, so the only option is to place script code to /data/local/userinit.sh
Permissions of this script must be set to 0755 (-rwxr-xr-x).
For anyone who interested in adopting this method I've prepared template script (also it sets some other available screen options, not only mode):
Code:
#!/system/bin/sh
# For SGS4 screen mode can be chosen from:
# 0 - STANDARD
# 1 - DYNAMIC
# 2 - MOVIE
# 3 - NATURAL
echo 3 > /sys/class/mdnie/mdnie/mode
# For SGS4 screen scenario can be chosen from:
# 0 - UI_MODE
# 1 - VIDEO_MODE
# 2 - VIDEO_WARM_MODE
# 3 - VIDEO_COLD_MODE
# 4 - CAMERA_MODE
# 5 - NAVI
# 6 - GALLERY_MODE
# 7 - VT_MODE
# 8 - BROWSER
# 9 - eBOOK
echo 0 > /sys/class/mdnie/mdnie/scenario
# Other parameters are boolean: 0 - Disabled, 1 - Enabled
echo 0 > /sys/class/mdnie/mdnie/negative
echo 0 > /sys/class/mdnie/mdnie/outdoor
Additionally I've prepared TWRP (CWM should work also, but I've not tested) installable version of this script (see attachment).
In that case if you dislike my default setting you'll need to unpack it, edit "data/local/userinit.sh" and pack it back using zip.
PS
This MAY work with other Samsung AMOLED devices. I can confirm that it works with galaxy tab 7.7 (p6800).

It's not suspicious in any way! The developer f4k who wrote this little apk is a very honorable guy, just have a look at his profile and all of the work he does...
This apk does the job perfectly and doesn't do any harm to nothing.
Your remark/comment is very unnessessary here. So why don't you go start a thread your own instead of lousing this one up?

I'm not trying to blame anyone in anything.
I'm not a pro in android programming and maybe such permissions are implied to all apk's that manage system settings.
However I can't see any reason for app that manages screen settings to require permissions to make calls, access user contacts etc. and it seems suspicious to me. That's all.

When I was searching how to setup screen settings in CM11 on SGS4 I've found only this thread. And when I've managed to solve this problem with alternative method I've decided that other users maybe interested in this information. I've posted to Your thread because I thought that it is a good idea to post all possible solutions for 'S4 amoled display colour profiles with cyanogenmod 11' in one thread to help other people find them quickly and in one place.
Sorry if I was wrong and violated something.

Mostly when there are high ranking permissions for an app requested, it isn't because of maliciousness of the author, it's often just carelessness of the creator not deactivating them in the building tool's presets he uses.
And after all, just don't be so mistrustful about things coming from senior xda developers......
This method I announced here is very simple to install, safe and works perfectly even with the latest nightlies so far.

[Custom tar] Convert Galaxy Note 5 to S6 Edge+ w/o Play Movies breaking

Hello, before I begin I just want to state I thought of this idea to try and do something like this WITHOUT breaking Google Play Movies or rooting I was never able to figure out how to do it though after the 5.1.1 on the Galaxy S6 and when the Note 5 came out however I just thought of a different way to do it and I am bringing you my custom tar file that essentially "converts" the T-Mobile Galaxy Note 5 into a Galaxy S6 Edge+. Of course it doesn't do anything to the device physically. However this should give you all the S6 Edge+ features, by that I mean the edge screen features.
Thank you @durpflip for all your help!
I am NOT responsible for anything that happens to your device you are choosing to make these modifications to your device!
Bugs:
Saved WiFi networks are forgotten after every reboot.
Tell me if you find another one!
Once again this does NOT break Google Play Movies and is based off of the T-Mobile S6 edge+ and should only be flashed on the T-Mobile Galaxy Note 5. I understand you could just flash a ROM that does this already but have you tried watching something on google play movies with those? It doesn't work and it hasn't worked since the 5.1.1 update on the Galaxy S6 and when the Note 5 came out. This is a solution to that, with this Google Play Movies works no problem.
Step 1: Download the custom tar file from HERE
Step 2: Open Odin (I attached Odin to the thread see the bottom)
Step 3: Turn off your Note 5 and hold Volume down plus power and home at the same time.
Step 4: Press volume up when you get to the light blue screen to continue.
Step 5: Plug your phone into the computer and select "AP", in Odin and then find the custom .tar file you downloaded.
Step 6: Click start and make sure re-partition is not selected.
Step 7: Your phone should reboot when it is done.

Can someone please test if this trips KNOX I am not sure because I already had tripped KNOX when I tested it. It shouldn't trip KNOX but that is just me assuming things, I am not sure at ALL.
Don't blame me if it does trip KNOX if it doesn't trip KNOX that's awesome please tell me if so.

Is there a file to download? And I assume you have tried this yourself and it works right? What exactly is being flashed? is it the full S6+ Rom? If so - this is very dangerous as it would also include the MODEM right? If the modem is included in the file you flash in ODIN, it sounds like it would be an extremely dangerous thing to do - but hey - I don't know everything -
So is there a file to down load and please let me know if this includes the full rom for the S6+ including the modem, kernel - etc.
Thanks

What about s-pen features? Are they there?

as far as i know,s-pen features are stored in one APK file. thus you could back up s-pen features via root privileges on a stock TW note and install them on the S6+ based ROM ethanscooter provides.
this is confirmed to work on my daily driver note 3,however i only owned the note 5 for a limited amount of time as i didn't find it to my tastes and therefore sold it.

This is what you can do to fix the WiFi passwords being forgotten after every reboot, a little bit useless because rooting breaks google play movies which is what the whole point of this is.

Sure, if you find correct gapps for it (use odexed ones), but most of the apps probably will fail to open. I'm working on the SElinux denials, but I'm not good at fixing denials... What I think, most of the SELinux rules should be made from scratch....
NFC and Bluetooth seems to be fworking now. :good:
But no sound, probably because of lib_Samsung_Resampler.so gets denied by audioserver, but in permissive SELinux mode audio should work (at least it worked and I am lazy to read my dumped logs)?
Now, also camera works (at least worked before witching to video recording and re-opening camera) and typo in hex-edited libwvn.so is fixed (symbol error).
Help from other more skilled/experienced users would be great.

Great! I am not really skilled all that I've done is ported a lot of MTK ROMs and modified boot images,and ported recovery images,I tried maybe grabbing some libs from a Marshmallow ROM for S2 Plus and putting them in a flashable zip,but that ended up being a fail,the only thing that changed was it said that Wi-Fi is disabled,usually it would be blank lol

Btw did you add those lines for RIL to work to build.prop?

Yes, I did. I had screwed up one of my commits, that's why those lines didn't get included in my previous build.

Just feedback for the OP.
I understand that this thread is not posted in the S6 forum, but the title says "any Samsung device and any Stock ROM rooted running Android 7.0+".
I am running a deodex stock base rooted 7.0 build and get contast fc for Samsung keyboard.
It's all good, I simply reverted back to my original files and all is well.
OP you may consider renaming the thread because some users may get their expectations up only to be disappointed if it doesn't work for the devices described in the title.

So in the end I would assume that this may work for any Samsung any rom running a "S8/N8 PORT"?

Just feedback for the OP.
I understand that this thread is not posted in the S6 forum, but the title says "any Samsung device and any Stock ROM rooted running Android 7.0+".
I am running a deodex stock base rooted 7.0 build and get contast fc for Samsung keyboard.
It's all good, I simply reverted back to my original files and all is well.
OP you may consider renaming the thread because some users may get their expectations up only to be disappointed if it doesn't work for the devices described in the title.
For debugging purposes the following is the portion referencing the keyboard crash pulled from the logcat

Add flagship features to any ROOTED OneUI phone!

In this tutorial I will show you how to add more features to any ROOTED OneUI phone!
Note: I assume you know how to edit system files via a root explorer and know the permissions for files and folders.
So let's get started!
1- DailyBoard:
This is a feature exclusive on Galaxy Tab series that we are going to get on our device, what is does it shows some info when the phone is charging:
First put the permission file: http://www.mediafire.com/file/8t57c...issions-com.samsung.android.homemode.xml/file to /system/etc/permissions
and then put latest apk https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsung-electronics-co-ltd/samsung-daily-board/ to /system/app/DailyBoard (a folder you should create in /system/app) and finally add line <SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_COMMON_CONFIG_DAILYBOARD>TA</SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_COMMON_CONFIG_DAILYBOARD> to /system/etc/floating_feature.xml.
2- Japan "Galaxy" boot animation:
This is a Exclusive Samsung boot animation that is very clean... it shows only the word Galaxy with a nice animation:
To do it simply install https://drive.google.com/file/d/1tuvG2CQ4a6TwQm8Va3tPb8QMI9DnJCPy/view?usp=drivesdk unpack then copy the three files to /system/media.
3- AirCommad:
The SPen feature we all know about, note: you will need launch it first from a root app also called AirCommand found on your app drawer and wait for the magic to happen:
Simply download https://drive.google.com/file/d/1n3QWteEWMOG_YgT3w444cIUW8Oe7LnWE/view?usp=drivesdk and unpack each folder to its location from the folder given (priv-app to priv-app and etc/permissions to etc/permissions).
Update: To fix SPen settings crash add this https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Nt2EZti2HSuoOHnQPD2zvG9UxD-qA6uX/view?usp=share_link to /system/etc/permissions.
4- Wifi Security Detection:
What it does is that it detects the security of the connected wifi network:
Download this apk https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CCmjfrwYEIuzLW0-ss2RUgg91Xmt7fZV/view?usp=drivesdk then paste it to /system/priv-app/TencentWifiSecurity (a folder you should create in /system/priv-app).
5- S22 ringtones and wallpapers (video wallpapers included)
If you have pre-2022 Samsung phone you can try out the new ringtones, also you can enjoy S22 wallpapers
Just replace the apk file https://drive.google.com/file/d/1o6IpSmyWoZa9VMAT-0x3zd6rtM7-ZsEx/view?usp=drivesdk found in /system/priv-app/wallpaper-res/wallpaper-res.apk and for the ringtone replace /system/media/audio/ringtones/SoundThemes/Galaxy/Over_the_Horizon.ogg with the new one https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-7FTSV91syHS8NydXbLtgt3joOruk5Bd/view?usp=drivesdk
6- Unlock all single take modes:
Single take mode has many features that Samsung hides from us A series users:
open /system/cameradata/camera-feature.xml and file the lines under <!-- Single take lite features-->
and change any that has false value to true for example change <local name="SUPPORT_SINGLE_TAKE_REWIND_VIDEOS" value="false" /> to <local name="SUPPORT_SINGLE_TAKE_REWIND_VIDEOS" value="true" />.
7- Bixby Touch
A weird Bixby App I found, I don't know if it even works 100%, but if you want to give it try go ahead:
First add download the latest apk from https://www.apkmirror.com/uploads/?appcategory=bixby-touch and add it to /system/priv-app/BixbyTouch (a folder you should create) then add https://drive.google.com/file/d/17q9FwpVpb_IQOl0yyubeSkoJmtJPnjs2/view?usp=drivesdk to /system/etc/permissions, also add this https://drive.google.com/file/d/1jJGbN2P2ySK2W_VKYarGZZrqzAj3i2kh/view to /system/etc/sysconfig after that add this line <SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_COMMON_SUPPORT_BIXBY_TOUCH>TRUE</SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_COMMON_SUPPORT_BIXBY_TOUCH> to /system/etc/floating_features.xml.
8- Samsung Dex on phone screen
If you have ROM with Dex support you can use Dex on your device screen locally without need of external screen just like in Galaxy Tab S series:
Add "standalone" to the line in /system/etc/floating_features.xml <SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_COMMON_CONFIG_DEX_MODE>dual,wireless,dexforpc</SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_COMMON_CONFIG_DEX_MODE> so it becomes <SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_COMMON_CONFIG_DEX_MODE>dual,wireless,dexforpc,standalone</SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_COMMON_CONFIG_DEX_MODE> and then after applying change go to dex you will see extra option in three dot menu click it and toggle Dex and BOOM! Samsung Dex powering on in your phone's screen.
9- Taskbar (from tablets and foldables)
You can get the Taskbar feature from fold and tablet devices on your regular phone running OneUI 5 beta by adding this: <SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_LAUNCHER_SUPPORT_TASKBAR>TRUE</SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_LAUNCHER_SUPPORT_TASKBAR> your floating_features.xml.
10- Object Eraser Features
You can get Object Eraser with its features on your phone by adding https://drive.google.com/file/d/100CzKPLja-2p-aCYTcMGmSA6O1_dUWyX/view?usp=drivesdk to /system/app/GalleryShadowEraser, https://drive.google.com/file/d/101ZqyRnD5zbV1e5ce6nOwurjRTxgNu7L/view?usp=drivesdk to /system/app/GalleryReflectionEraser and https://drive.google.com/file/d/10-FNFkYnWiJz29Gy7hR72LfztBaWJc0e/view?usp=drivesdk to /system/app/GalleryObjectEraser, then replace your /system/priv-app/PhotoEdtor_Mid/PhotoEdtor_Mid.apk with this: https://drive.google.com/file/d/10H-LNBgpjrwgg8UyYlr62WthWlRe_A-G/view?usp=drivesdk, and then you will get Object Eraser in your photo editor as you would get on a flagship.
11- Open Secure Folder from side key (power button)
This unlocks more features for secure folder that I will look into that need more apk files, but for now it adds option by double pressing the power button in side key settings under advanced features, to enable just add these lines to your cscfeatures.xml:
<CscFeature_Common_SupportPrivateMode>TRUE</CscFeature_Common_SupportPrivateMode>
<CscFeature_Gallery_SupportAliveZoom>TRUE</CscFeature_Gallery_SupportAliveZoom>
<CscFeature_Sip_ConfigAlivePrediction>multilingual</CscFeature_Sip_ConfigAlivePrediction>
12- China Smart Manager
It is an exclusive version of Samsung's device care for Chinese Samsung phones, it has more features and nicer UI to do it,
First delete original device care (smart manager) folder: /system/priv-app/SmartManager_v5 and then download china device care apk https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsu...china/smart-manager-china-14-0-01-13-release/ and create a new folder called SmartManagerCN in /system/priv-app and add the apk in it and also rename it SmartManagerCN, after that is a very important step to make it work: open your floating_feature.xml file and find the line with SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_SMARTMANAGER_CONFIG_PACKAGE_NAME add replace com.samsung.android.lool with com.samsung.android.sm_cn so that the line looks like this: <SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_SMARTMANAGER_CONFIG_PACKAGE_NAME>com.samsung.android.sm_cn</SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_SMARTMANAGER_CONFIG_PACKAGE_NAME> now the new smart manager should work!
13- Expert RAW
[This may not work on all devices due to missing hardware capability] It is a Samsung app for flagship samsung devices that extends the capabilities of the Samsung Camera app, it is only available to flagship Samsung devices if you want to enable it:
First spoof your device as a flagship device that is supported by expert raw using a Magisk module (there are many magisk modules that do that such as this one: https://t.me/OneUi_Mods/9945) and then in your floating_feature.xml file add this line: <SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_CAMERA_CONFIG_GALAXYRAW_PLATFORM_VERSION>13.02.01</SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_CAMERA_CONFIG_GALAXYRAW_PLATFORM_VERSION> and after applying these modifications install the expert raw app and see if it works.
This is not it... I will add more features to this guide when I have the time and discover new features so keep and eye on this thread, I keep it updated.
I hope you find this guide useful and enjoy these features and mods!

If anyone is having any problem adding these features please let me know, also if anyone knows more features let me know so that I can add them and give you credits.

Good work Keep going

This issue is probably related to me being stupid or my device being annoying but I'm getting this when I try to copy the wallpaper-res.apk file to where I'm supposed to copy it. I'm using NcX and SixTeen kernel both latest versions. I deleted the original apk but for some reason ZArchiver cant delete or copy files to anywhere in /system eventho its got root permissions and I remounted the filesystem. But it works on termux but when I use the command it tell me this. Also ive got 60 gigs of space.

yeah I noticed that and I couldnt find a way to resize the partition but I just got rid of some unnecessary files on it such as AR stickers. However I had a backup of the stock wallpaper-res.apk which was around 60 mbs but copying that to /system/priv-app/wallpaper-res and then restarting caused the wallpapers to be gone and the "Featured" tab was empty(which probably meant that the app isn't working). Also after I got rid of the unnecessary files I tried copying the apk that you provided and copying was successful but I also got the same results. Here's a screenshot of what happens after I copy the apk and restart. Also for anyone else having the same issue, if you're using NcX or a OneUI based from just reflash it and you'll get the stock wallpapers back.

a very important step to make it work: open your floating_feature.xml file and find the line with SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_SMARTMANAGER_CONFIG_PACKAGE_NAME add replace com.samsung.android.lool with com.samsung.android.sm_cn so that the line looks like this: <SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_SMARTMANAGER_CONFIG_PACKAGE_NAME>com.samsung.android.sm_cn</SEC_FLOATING_FEATURE_SMARTMANAGER_CONFIG_PACKAGE_NAME> now the new smart manager should work!
