Hi, so I have had my NP5165 with the 95% NTSC color gamut screen for about half a year now. When I originally got it mythlogic calibrated the screen for me, but the profile added a green layer ontop of the screen. It also lowered the brightness a lot and made white look more green than white. So I went ahead and got a huey pro and calibrated all my screens, all looked great except for the 95% color gamut one. After that I just gave up and stuck with the stock profile.
Now, half a year later, I picked up the spyder4express. I calibrated all my screens, and the 95% color gamut one still looks really bad after calibration. The other screens look great. I have desktop monitors with 95% and 110% NTSC color gamut aswell, they look really good after calibration, but I just don't understand why the 95% color gamut laptop screen looks so bad after calibration. I'm thinking it is the screen by now.
Anyone with the 95% NTSC screen that get good results from calibrating the screen?
Anything I can do to improve the calibration process on the laptop? Brightness to max?
Also noticed something different from the profile made by the spyder4express. When I tilt the laptop screen forward I soon see the display going red. When I tilt the screen backwards the screen goes green in color. With the stock screen profile it just gets a bit greyer tilting the screen backwards and forwards. The viewing angles gets much more limited with the spyder4 profile, with a green filter over the screen, does not look good. I found other profiles made for this excact screen on the internet and on those profiles tilting the laptop screen bakwards and forwards I dont see it going red or green, just greyer.
I can return the spyder4express and buy another screen for the laptop for the same price, because I already got a huey pro calibrator. but I want to make sure it is the laptop screen that is the problem, or if all screens of this model have this problem.
Edit: I watched the calibration closely now, and at about 75% in, when it is about to adjust the white value, the whole screen just goes into that green mode.

You'd think the calibrating software did that for you, but my Spyder4Express certainly doesn't. -

never had that problem. my screen hasnt changed since i recieved it from mythlogic. Hit up the tech support they are the best, as a matter of fact i just wrote a review on their tech/customer support.

I calibrated my W150HR 95% matte display with ColorEyesDisplay Pro and a Spyder3. My screen looks great and when a white backround is displayed no matter how I tilt it the display stays white.
My W150HR is 8 months old.
Calibrating 95% NTSC color gamut screen, bad results
