sharpness tweaks... how to revert / get rid of it? - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

nearly every dev uses this tweak now, which makes the screen just too blurry.
is there a way to set the sharpness to factory defaults?
hopefully someone would help me, tried to ask that in several topics now, but nobody cared.

What are you talking about exactly?
Sent by Galaxy S III

about the 'hardcore sharpness tweaks'.
flash a stock rom and compare it ie. with siyah kernel. the screen/image quality is blurry compared to the stock rom.

2 solution:
-use a kernel without this tweak
-recompile the kernel yourself with this tweak removed

Any way to lower saturation?

I'm watching a video and it looks so unnatural. I read that 9100 allowed for changing saturation. Ours doesn't? Is there an app for that?

Already been asked. Too tired to find the link, pain medication + benedryl)
Most if not all roms in the dev section will enable it.

Get unnamedrom and look in display settings... I think the options are dynamic being the most saturated, normal being medium, and movie being the least

So I have to flash a custom rom? OK thanks.

You could flash a custom ROM. Or just use supercurio's "voodoo screen tuner" from the market. Does wonders for video as well as the screen in general. Not that its necessarily adjusting saturation only.

Voltages

Well chaps, I did some searching, can't find the answer.
A while ago, I undervolted my phone, all was well, I was happy. However I've just installed the SE cosmic flow LWP and when I open up certain things from the home screen, there is a noticeable lag.
Anyway, point is, I wanna test this LWP with original voltages, which I neglected to write down, so would anyone be able to let me know.
LA4 rom, siyah 2.6.13 kernel incidentally.

There are several newish UV threads.
Try a search for magicconfig by geko95gek.

Here you go.
Splendid, thanks. Best set the GPU back to stock too, don't suppose anyone knows them settings?

160/267 from memory (not 100% sure tho) but you might want to search to confirm (do a Google search with XDA appended to your search terms rather than using the search function on XDA).
You might have a bit of reading to do to find the answer.
Thanks. Set everything back to stock, but it seems the cosmic flow LWP is inherently laggy. Still, as its been ported from Sony Ericsson its acceptable. Kind of reminds me of my old Hero.

[Q] samsung stock camera on an aosp rom(root box)

Ho everyone, I've been having a great time with root box. I was a bit discouraged about using an aosp rom(because of all the extra features that Samsung roms have (ultima rom ) but the multitasking lag that I suffer from it was gone the moment i changed to an aosp rom. I miss some things about samsung roms, but otherwise I quite happy I did the change. But the only thing that I think is the best for me is the Samsung camera app. It has far superior quality and functions over the aosp one even though its faster in opening. But it lack the low light conditions that the Samsung one has(and don't tell that they has the same quality because it doesn't)
So to sum it up I wannna know if i can have the Samsung camera app over my rom( root box for the ones who skipped my intro) or something that I could do to use that camera. I know that there are some persons out there that could have the same question so i hope this can help them and that somebody gives any idea, thanks.

Not possible.
Samsung camera will only work on TW ROM.

So it's practically impossible. Anybody has any kind of suggestion?

No matter what camera you install, all will act roughly the same. Completely the same regarding lowlight conditions.
If you need a better camera, go back to Crapwiz.

Well by seeing the suggestion you are giving i will try to do dual boot with siyah kernel with a tw rom. Any suggestions about a light one, just to use the camera.

Well you could compile the camera apk with all the dependencies built into it (harder than it sounds). We did it back in the S1 days.

i can understand that it annoys a lot when phone lags....
also creating a thread in wrong place/section annoys a lot of people around here..
so next time ask question in q&a section
anyways for your problem of lagging..
- disable all animation from display settings (will help in restoring few fps)
- make sure u are using correct cpu settings..
- make sure that max frequency set is 832mhz..
- for speed, preffered governers are, smartassv2, performance, scary, lagfree and set i/o shedualer to bfq or noop..
i use those settings..!!
- even if that doesn't help much then reboot ur phone.
- or flash cosmic mods by areebjamal
hope it works

I agree with srt99... I just flashed Cosmic Mods and my phone is now a flash. I recommend this a lot.

Or worst case scenario flash a different rom that intrigues you.

OK I'm rooted but kinda don't want to put a rom any other suggestions?

I'm scared to mess up my player somehow when I put a room on it. So any alternate things I can do to improve it with out a rom??
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Improve in what way? You can install a custom kernel on it to boost performance a bit. You can also get some root apps from the play store like no frils cpu tuner. If talking about look of the UI you can also get another launcher. Adw, launcher pro, and holo launcher seem to work the best on stock rom.

I already have a launcher on it more so looking for as to improve it. Will a kernel make a big difference??

Not unless you put a custom rom on it...why are you afraid of putting a rom on it? Best thing you can do for your phone..

In my opinion it does. I was like you and didn't want to install a custom rom at all. I installed just the kernel and it did increase my battery life by a good margin. Most kernels increase your max clock speed to 1.2ghz, and give you the option to set a governor that manages your clock speeds better than stock, which also helps with performance. Also you sometimes get the option to undervolt, and that does help with battery life. I forgot to mention that when you use a custom kernel you get the ability to make nandroid backups with CWM (and it's the easiest way to get CWM on our players)
But just like Unhived__Mind said adding a custom rom vastly increase the abilities our galaxy player has lol.
