Roon colour/saturation issue after Android One UI 6 Update [Investigating]

Hi everyone,

We’re hoping for a set of ADB logs on an affected device encountering this saturation issue. Developers will use this to verify our in-house reproductions are valid and increase the efficacy of the proposed fix.

Please see the instructions linked in the post above. Thank you!

Hi @connor ,

I did it already, back in December 23.
Does the team have those logs?

Thanks.

Hi @nimitz,

We have your logs - thank you for providing! The team was hoping for a second instance to A/B test from @JANG_MIN_HO or @Hrvoje_Hudo. However, the ticket is in the pipeline and proceeding in the meantime. I’ll post an update here once we have a realistic estimation for when we will release a fix.

Hi @JANG_MIN_HO,

Are you still experiencing this issue? Please see my post above to provide logs if so.

Hi everyone,

Development is asking for a pulse check on the pool of users affected by this potential regression. We can’t reproduce color handling issues in-house on the more recent OneUI releases, but there is a ticket in existence to proceed if necessary. If there’s work to do here, we’ll proceed as soon as we hear from you. Otherwise, this thread will auto-close.

Hi @connor

I opened the topic.
I already sent the logs and everything the team asked.
I still have the issue.
Both Roon and Android are up to date on my Samsung S22.

PS: It’s a bummer to be a Roon lifetime user and having these issues and all this time waiting for a solution.

Yes, still an issue on my S22 Ultra. Didn’t change any phone settings, except set the dark theme.

Hi @nimitz, @Hrvoje_Hudo,

While running the most recent Roon build, do you have Night Shift enabled in this phone’s settings?

Hi @connor

Hi don’t.
Everything on accessibility off.

I just run it permanently on Dark Mode.
Issue remains on Light Mode (and colour vivid or natural has no influence either).

Thanks.

Don’t know what Night Shift is, don’t have it in Settings. There’s Eye Comfort mode, but its off. Color mode is Vivid, thats default, but on Natural mode Roon looks the same.

Issue is present on S24+ too. Blacks are crushed, colors too intense. I bought it yesterday and was shocked how bad Roon remote looks compared to my other phone Xiaomi.

My friend with S24 Ultra doesn’t have a problem. Possible reason is that Ultra uses Snapdragon SoC. S24+ on this market is Exynos SoC. S22 was too… So maybe you can’t reproduce the problem with phones for US market (they all have Snapdragons) but you need a global version with Exynos.

Hope this help with finding why is this happening.

Hi everyone,

Thank you for the updates. There’s a ticket in with development at this point - I’ll post here as soon as I have additional information.

Just updating that I got new phone (S24+) and I also have the problem that blacks are crushed. Everything is white text on black background which is really bad for eyes. Even the album cover pics look like they went through some darkening filter. Old phone (S21 FE) looks just fine.

I’d guess that the urgency of this is going to grow near future as more and more people migrate to newer phones that have this problem.

Oh, and I’m from Europe, so also Exynos. Make sure you try Exynos based Galaxy as suggested previously in case you can’t reproduce otherwise. Something may be different in how One UI is optimized for these.

The color is Dark,
How to fix the dark color issue of the app?

does anyone else have this problem?

You can change the theme from dark to light in settings:setup.
