    Hi everyone I was trying to calibrate my screen and I did some test and I found that colors with this moded AUO B173HW01 v4 screen color profile was way better than the stock one.

    you can see the colors are way richer and natural.

    you can notice the colors are kinda bleached well thats my own opinion and wanted to share :)

    this may make the 1600 x 900 BB screens look better.

    sorry for the poor pics quality its taken from my galaxy s

    Every panel (yes each individual one even of the same model) will be different, so what is better for you may be worse for others.

    MegaX05 has not posted recently , I sent him a Private message asking that he check out this thread.
    If you have the G73 have you tried using the profiles in the SPlendid Utility?
