Just because the values are close it doesn't mean the colors are balanced. Our sight is just like our hearing, we are less sensitive to high and low frequencies than mids. Try cranking up the middle frquenciee on an equalizer for one of your favorite songs to equal levels as the highs/lows and it'll be anything but balanced.

I'm well aware of that. I'm just thinking out loud.

With the help of a professional photographer who has a very good eye for color, we came up with the following settings:

Red: 261...
Green: 224...
Blue: 245...

Gamma:
Red: -12
Green: -14
Blue: -15

This looks spectacular on my screen. To these eyes, white looks white at any brightness and the colors are crisp and vivid. This is a very balanced color temp...on my screen anyway.

You'll also notice that these settings do not jack the blue way up like so many of the settings posted in this thread. If you have to crank any one color way higher than another, you wont get anything resembling balanced color.

Try these and let me know what you think!

Thanks for all the love of those settings. I'm glad most of you agree that they're nice and balanced. Now that I've been using them for a while my eyes have adjusted to them. I just recently went back and looked at the pre-2.3.3 color profile and not until getting used to these settings did I realize how unbelievable green that profile is. Even though the colors are vivid and the darker grays have that purplish tint to them, the overall color temp is very green.

I find it interesting that oldblue's settings look excellent on other users display. They looked terrible on mine, and I am not discrediting him whatsoever. I wonder if it would be possible to create a calibration app similar to the videos for HDTV's

Having held my phone side by side my friends today. His stock and mine CM7 with these voodoo settings. The stock phone seems to blow mine away color wise. But Even after restoring my stock nandroid I still felt his just seemed more rich and vivid.

I've done the same and agree with you. My brothers nexus is on 2.3.2, and his colors look far more vivid than mine even with a kernel that implements the 2.3.2 color drivers. I wonder if its a placebo affect or if the voodoo colors have worn on my display.

i just change my settings to your settings and so far they look pretty good when my brightness is up about half way or more. but when its dimmer, it seems a little dark and gray... but again every phone is different
