Love the video edition of Android Overload!
:D
It’s nice that the Paranoid Android is mentioned for fixing the colors on the Nexus 4 but the Faux123 kernel gives you controls for color and gamma that fixes the washed out colors on the Nexus 4 and it had this feature way before Paranoid Android implemented it into their kernel.
I give credit to the Paranoid Android team for calibrating the colors and gamma in the kernel so users don’t have to do calibrate it them selves but I think Faux123 also deserves credit for being the first to let Nexus 4 owners mess with the colors/gamma via sliders which let us fix the washed out screen on the Nexus 4 first.
great vid, funny seeing your dog messing about in the beginning.
Had to edit out the part where he started humping the blankets -_-
Most people probably can’t even pronounce Ubuntu.
