maybe we can get a monitor calibration app.....
There is a gamma check down the page here:
Monitor calibration and gamma
mine looks to be 2.6
This is a cool app:

I don't have any dead pixels!
On the gamma test there the vertical background is 2.6ish I guess but the horizontal background is way different.... Not sure if that can be adjusted somehow
Apparently adjustments have been made for other phones
I found this thread about the nexus one
[HACK] Calibration profile for Nexus One v5.1, now with 100% less Sith! - xda-developers
Is there anyway to bypass mDNIe on the Galaxy S4?
On the Galaxy Note II with Perseus kernel, one can use STweaks to "Enable master sequence", which will ignore Samsung's profiles and instead use a color scheme that closely calibrates the display to the sRBG color space.
My understanding is that a Note II display was measured with a colorimeter and values were obtained which allowed accurate color representation when the values were input into a mDNIe matrix.
In any case, is there any way to obtain accurate color on the GS4?
I noticed that Liquid Smooth ROM has advanced settings to set the color scheme (which didn't seem to do anything) and color temperature (didn't seem to do anything.)

Ive seen settings for mDNIe inside the KTweaker app that comes with the KTSGS4 Kernel. Not sure if its exactly what your looking for, but its the closest thing i could find. Might want to take a look at that kernel if you haven't already.
When you hand your phone to granny to take a photo of you, can she get the job done? Rate this thread to express how you deem the LG G6's camera software. A higher rating indicates that the software is easy to use, fast, uncluttered, and inclusive of advanced features for when you need them.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
This is some of the best software I have ever used with a camera. It can run in manual and it is very well fine-tuned. I also like that when you're in manual, you can "level" the phone as there is a graphic that appears to show you if you are tipping the phone in the shot.
The White balance (color temperature), ISO, shutter speed, EV(?), Manual Focus is possible in manual mode... HDR can also be turned on and off or left on "auto".
There are filters and lots of cool "modes" you can play with. There is also a "pop out" feature that uses both of the back cameras to create an inset image (which is customizeable with filters, different shapes, etc)
The selfie camera has lighting settings, filter and skin tone as well. Lighting adds more light to your face and skin tone basically adds a gaussian blur to your face if you want to give the appearance of faux smoother skin.
You can take advantage of the extra screen real estate and put a pop-up "camera roll" on the side to setup new shots based on past ones.
is it still the 5 min recording limit for 4K due to heating ? which LG v10 also has??

So what happens when you try to record again right after you just filmed? A warning too cool down/wait 5Min.?
Adequate, but difficult to use and over -difficult to use. Very difficult to navigate and understand within the application.
This phone has one of the best implementation of OEM skin over android. Its super light overlays and not trying to do too much in terms of animations and gimmicks. UX 6.0 has a consistent and proportional feeling throughout all the system apps with strict adherence to material design guidelines.
I highly recommend the following settings to take advantage of the insanely dense and crisp screen on this device and to best showcase the UX 6.0 UI themes.
# On Display settings
-- Set display size to smallest (makes the nav bar look apt-ly sized and frees up real estate)
-- Use LG's font instead of Roboto (this font is incredibly crisp on screen and uber readable)
-- Use bold settings for font (helps readability insanely, esp after setting the display size to small)
# On developer settings
-- Set animation speeds to 0.5x on all three animation types
-- Force GPU rendering for 2D
# Use a Dark Theme
-- Use a dark theme or black theme, default one is too bright to my taste.
I'm coming from a Oneplus3T who's OxygenOS had rave review for being a tastefully functional AOSP+ implementation of android. UX 6.0 takes it a notch up on the design side and is more refined than OOS. I wish they get to 7.1.2 soon to take advantage of the battery life improvements, otherwise this one's been mighty impressive so far compared to the experience i had on Oneplus3T.

using open camera
Coming from mi 5, this mobile is excellent in terms of hardware and software needs to improve more. Previously had g2 which was perfect in all aspects. My sincere suggestion is improve the rom like miui. It has better features and doesn't lagg or hang.
If anybody wonder how to enable volume bar (yes it's very hidden xD) here is instruction https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=75512773
Hello guys!!
For you what is the best KCAL settings t get close to AMOLED colors?
the best set is to set that fit your eye comfort.
i hope someone mod synapse UKM so we can choose profile
long time ago i've been using this for nexus 4 and yeah complete control.
I use Simcooler profile. It's pretty close to amoled for me.
There is a very detailed post with many different kcal configs: https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-2/general/kernel-adiutor-kcal-color-profiles-t3382086
Credits to the developers of the modified GCam project. Please donate to them if possible to keep the development going.
After using it daily on my Pixel 2 XL it is now confirmed working on the Pixel 6.
There are alot of custom options to take that perfect shot available for this modified version, as time passes there will be more releases on the main page on the same site.
Enjoy!

Detailed info I found on Google for the app:
What is the lib patcher?Libpatcher - is a custom setting where you can set all the settings to your liking
Radius Temporal changes the graininess of the image by affecting noise, the higher the image is more blurry and less noise, the lower the more noisy, but more detail
Tone Curve is where you can adjust dark points, white points, shadows, highlights. It is recommended to enable and leave the default values or tweak them (advanced users)
Sharpness allows you to control the sharpness of the image. Zoom in for low-light shots, and zoom out for selfies.
Luminance Noise Reduction is what controls the “graininess” in images caused by high ISO. Decrease it to get more detail at the expense of high noise, or increase it if the noise is unacceptable to you
Color Noise Reduction: Controls color spots. There is usually no need to adjust it as this will not improve the quality, but you can increase it slightly if you see colored spots in the dark. Too much chroma noise can cause a decrease in saturation. Also known as color noise. Be careful with this setting it can mess with the fine details of an image.
Contrast settings allow you to control the contrast of the image. Increase it if you want darker shadows, and decrease it to make it brighter is the general idea. This is again a personal preference
Saturation is what allows you to control the saturation of the image. Increase it if you want more saturated colors in your photos. Obviously decrease if your HDR is getting too saturated. This is again a personal preference
Now there are some advanced settings. These affect the morphological processing. Naturally thats a very basic overview. I took the course while finishing up my engineering degree. It was difficult stuff past the basic level. I wont get into what these settings do beyond a decent generalization.
Warning to all these settings can absolutely have a drastic negative effect on your images. A lot of testing would be necessary by the end userLuminance noise reduction levels
Level 1 (Detail) changes the photo very slightly, slightly smoothing out small elements in the image.
Level 2 (Rough Surfaces) seriously alters the image by smoothing grain
Level 3 (Edges) doesn’t change much. Smooths edges slightly
Level 4 (Smooth Surfaces) radically alters the image by making it posterized by smoothing out large areas of the same color. Avoid magnification over 1.0
Color noise reduction levels
Level 1 (Detail) fine textures, but the same applies to rough details
Level 2 (Rough surfaces) fine textures, but the same applies to rough details
Level 3 (Edges) Edges are mainly defined by the contrast between one object and another
Level 4 (Smooth Surfaces) Smooth surfaces are generally uniform areas of the image. Like wallpaper with few small details
Tips:If you notice a certain color of spots on your low light photos. Check its frequency spectrum. Look where its at in the photo and go to the specific wavelet reduction setting and tweak it. See if you can remove it. More often than not these settings are used to improve astrophotography, low light and high detail images.
My sensor has more higher frequency color noise than others. Ive seen some XDA users where they had to turn down denoise. It really all depends on a lot of stuff. Its fun to tweak and squeeze out what you can.
YMMVWill post occasional pics displaying some of the modded apps performance on occasionWhy didnt your wavelet settings work for me
Factors that affect settings
Your phone
When it was made
The chip itself
The silicon in your sensor
Ambient weather conditions
The image processing firmware on the Pixel Visual Core
Other properties of silicon unique and intrinsic to your device
FAQWhy are your colors listed as frequencies?
Light is an electromagnetic phenomenon and as an RF engineer its easier for me to refer to spectra as a frequency but one could easily refer to it in wavelengths or color (but color wont be accurate as thats up to perception)
What are wavelets?
A wavelet is how we define a center frequency and some deviation. We use wavelets because a color is not just one frequency its a range see here : Spectral color - Wikipedia 10 Its also an entire subset of mathematics used by anyone who works with the spectrum (i.e RF engineers, optical engineers (fiber stuff), biomedical engineers). They are helpful because we can take the average of a color spectrum (say blues) and convolve it with the signal to find the center frequency of blue or the blues in a subset (image). It basically the magic behind the IM processing math.

Just tried a sample of my night time “light bleed” mode and its okay. It still need more tweaking but heres an example of what tweaking your denoise settings can do. The image is far better than a stand night photograph (even with some longer exposure)
Keep in mind you wont remove all the noise. In fact it sometimes takes noise to remove or smooth noise (dithering). Dithering is a process where we add a bit of noise to a data set in an attempt to constructively perturb the signals we want to convolve, isolate and amplify over the average.
Really nice
Are the default settings after install already tweaked?

Any good xml?

I'm almost certain they are not tweaked but I enabled MWP - xHDR mode under Lib-Patcher and the results were incredible earlier today.

I don't seem to be able to associate gcam with the power button shortcut - it always opens the original camera app (or nothing if I disable that one) - what do I need to do?
This one does really improve my pics quality, really nice mod

Unfortunately that's the limitation of the phone, I'm unable to get the modified GCam to work with the power button shortcut either. See attachment there is a Nova Launcher Paid gesture to quickly bring up any app if on the home screen. It's not only this app it can be any one you choose.

All praise goes to the creator and those that put all the hard work on creating it for us. I'm glad you have enjoyed using it.
I forgot exactly where on here I read and applied these settings via lib patcher, but with these settings, detail is far greater preserved than stock cam. there is a bit of noise but the detail preserved is worth it to me. the over the top denoise and sharpening is really evident on pets. give these settings a shot and lemme know if you can figure out how to preserve the detail with less noise!
first pic stock. 2nd gcam w settings posted previous to this post.. heavy noise and detail loss on stock. lil bit more noise but much greater detail preservation.
Can someone explain to me how to restore a xml i saved earlier? Thanks

Stock looks better. Too much noise on other.
even in great lighting situations, the stock cam denoises so much and loses so much detail in post processing.. for me, the little extra noise in low light is well worth it. I'm trying to find some pics of another dog outside and it's really evident how much post processing stock gcam has regardless of available light, but I may take more later. you can always play with the lib patcher to increase/decrease post processing
I have tried to increase the details to the max, and the mod does exactly what it is supposed to do, increases details and increases noise
It is now time to look for the best compromise. But I think the Google denoising algorithm is not so bad, I have seen far worth on Huawei phones

Sorry it's completely my fault, I installed the wrong mod now it works except for the faces based autofocus which crash the app. Any workaround for this?
I got it to become the sorta default camera. I copied all the files from the new gcam into the original gcams app folder meaning install new gcam and then copy it's contents over. I
made a backup of the stock camera and opening stock apk now is the new gcam. I am trying to get self illumination working on the face unlock app lol haven't been able to get tnsg working yet. Edit I removed the gcam because face unlock app was messing up.

if you're taking photos of stationary objects, I find the best results paired w the mods I posted earlier, and changing the max amt of frames HDR Enhanced mode uses to 25. then use HDR enhanced as opposed to just HDR+. takes a second to capture won't work well with moving objects but takes a lot of noise out
I tried with Nyolsson's settings and it is a very nice compromise
