I am assuming that this is something to do with the Sense 5.5 update, it probably is an UI Change.
Technically its the same camera or at least the same video module and the only change is in the software.

Hi guys -
I just upgraded from the Cappy to the Galaxy S2 on AT&T. The phone looks and feels great, but I noticed the colors on the screen are not realistic in some apps. The wallpaper on the homescreen & lock screen looks amazing, but the pictures I take with the camera, and the colors in some of the game apps (i.e. Hanging with Friends) look very different. The colors are over-saturated and dark. I've never had this issue on the Cappy, and was wondering if anyone else had similar problems? I searched online and found the international version has a display mode option setting, which is non-existent on the i777. I tried using the Screen Adjuster app, but it didn't help an awful lot.
Took a screen capture with the phone, but the colors look normal there. Would need to borrow another phone or camera to take a picture...and then will post pics as a side by side comparison on what the screen captures.
Anyone else have this problem and/or know how to fix it?

I assume you are running a stock ROM - if so, I believe Samsung defaults the screen mode to "dynamic" and got rid of the option to select other modes (normal and movie) in their ROMs. Most (possibly all) of the custom ROMs on this forum add that selection option back. menu>display>screen mode.

Thanks for the quick response! Yea, I'm still on stock ROM...was thinking of rooting and flashing to a custom one soon. Will report back results of the display after. Thanks again!
Hi.
Yes, i have, I9300, i bought multimedia stand for note II and it works like charm. One small problem. Screen resolution of my monitor is 1200x1600, and what resolution S3 has - you know. Is there any way or program that will change screen resolution after connection S3 with monitor to the 1200x1600? It looks not good when S3 give me his native resolution, all blurry and crappy view on the monitor.
Stand has 3x USB, 1xHDMI, 1x3.5jack, and place to connect charger that has 5V 2A. For curious ones i have bought that device here that is Polish shop but pictures you can see there.
Anybody know is there any way to make that phone use 1200x1600 screen resolution after connection to that base?
Oh, one more question, that base make phone to use landscape mode, but when i use skype, or camera, it works in normal mode, and screen is blinking till my camera is running. When i turn my camera off - phone is using FULL SCREEN MODE!! The same situation is in youtube app and when i am watching movies. It uses screen resolution that my monitor has.
Anybody can help me with that?
Nope, there's nothing you can do with hdmi resolution -plenty of similar posts but none I've read found a solution. Can't make any sense of your second question.
Oh, sorry, it`s hard to me to translate that straight from polish ok i try again: Camera. For example: When my cellphone is connected to that base, and i`m using skype, when i turn on my front or back camera, person who i talking to view me on side, like 90 degrees to left. Cellphone is forced to use landscape mode on that base and only camera is working normally (neutron music player too ;P )
Another fact that normal screen is not on full screen, on top and bottom there is black stripe - i understand why. And skype, youtube or other movies is using fullscreen mode.
Other soft for s3 supporting that connection to base?
Hey guys,
I've noticed that any kind of blur in my phone makes it very laggy and slow. I tried for example having notification area blurred with one of those big xposed mods, don't remember the name now, and it was super slow.Going into the camera and changing modes, where there is blur, makes everything too not very nice.
Could you guys check if it's also slow for you in the camera or is it just my phone?

Yeah, happened to me when I blurred the notifications area with an xposed mod. When I swiped down to open it, it was very laggy and the frame rate was very low.

Just reboot the phone after you apply it. It should be alright after that.
And how about camera guys? Does blur give you low framerate?
EDIT: And offtopic question about camera. When you tap to focus, do you hear a sound and the sights turn blue? They only do for me after I touch to focus and click on screen camera button to take a shot or when I click the hardware camera button halfway.
On the TV advert for the mate 20 Pro it shows the camera with a full screen and the menus shown over the camera image .. on the note 9 you can basically show a full screen picture and with the advert showing it I presume you can do the same on the mate had anyone been able to do this ??
Go into settings and change resolution to 18.8:9 and it is full screen with menu over screen

Brilliant thank you ? shame it's only 6mp but decent for some shots
Hello all,
This has been an issue since I got the pixel 6 at launch. When playing videos, the shadows appear washed out. It appears to be some sort of gamma shift or HDR tone mapping issue. This happens when in google photos, chrome browser, imgur, even other apps. (youtube is fine).
I've confirmed in person this happens to other pixels one of which was pixel 6 pro.
The issue is recorded here:
I tried changing the color setup under display options in system settings, turning off H265 in camera settings, booting into safe mode, forcing 60hz refresh rate, but it still washes out the videos.
This does not happen with videos shot by other phones, for example my wife's iPhone shot video then sent it over to me and the gamma shift does not happen...
Strange thing is, in Chrome while playing the video, as soon as I swipe up from the bottom to open the recent apps, the video jumps back to normal as seen here:
https://imgur.com/a/Va3l5fQ
I reported this to google, and their chat support to me to fully nuke my phone to factory....
Does anyone have any idea why this is happening, and could other Pixel 6 users verify it's happening on their devices as well ?
Thank you

I seldom shoot video with phones and usually don't like to reference reviews. But from what you described Dxomark's summary about video performance is looking to be spot-on.
Google Pixel 6 Camera review: An outstanding performer in its segment - DXOMARK
The Google Pixel 6 camera displayed an outstanding performanc and is currently the best option for photographers who prefer smaller devices.
www.dxomark.com
My experience with dark objects in still photos has been somewhat similar. Recently I couldn't get enough detail photographing black camera bodies I'm selling online. Even with direct light from a daylight LED lamp I ended up using night mode. Every speck of dust showed up which wasn't ideal either.
Over all, though, I like the Pixel 6 camera.

Did you ever find an answer to this? I'm having the same issue... though it's not for every video, just in certain programs/websites.
Cheers.
I've been able to remedy this in chrome by turning off HW Overlays in Developer Options.
It's still an issue in Google Photos.

Sorry if I didin't understand it at first, the toggle to disable HW Overlays in the developer options will always turn off again, at least in Pixel 6, so that's what confused me

Huh it stays on on note 10 . In that case i am not shure how u can keep it on. Can u elaborate on when it turn itself off back again?
Weird, after I turn it on, I can go to any other screen on the phone, if I come back the toggle it´s off again, maybe it´s a bug on my end, here´s the example
