As the title states.

The v2 switch out now has a screen with warmer calibration. Could it be possible to set calibration screen temp via HB app or any other method?

And how exactly would you intend to use that homebrew app on the v2 switch :P?? Or do you mean achieving this on the older switches? If so, the new switch has a hardware upgrade that allows the difference, otherwise nintendo would have just released an update. Either way you look at things, the answer is going to be no.

Afaik it can't be hard to be able to change the color temperature of your screen, it's a software thing not a hardware thing

Again if nintendos upgrade is purely based on software, why is it not in an update? It makes absolutely zero sense. The new model has a screen upgrade afaik which relies on both the new software and hardware. Even calling it an “upgrade” is a little far fetched, considering it was done to make the screen more visible in sunlight outdoors.

If you'd want something like flux then that should be quite doable, as it's just software dependend...

Just the same as you could adjust the hue/colours on your TV to have less blue or more red/yellow...

It's a bit of both. If the screen just naturally tends to produce warmer or colder colors and isn't capable of producing a pure white there's not much you can do.
I'm gonna assume that the screens in the new units are different. I don't think they do any sort of factory calibration.

    I think that's why I focus on just enjoying single player experiences that aren't too competitive

    @Maximumbeans, Indeed. I've been working on getting this Infecutus chip to work on my PS2. But after soldering, I realised that a plastic piece was missing from the power ribbon cable to the power and eject buttons.
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Now I could go with soldering the contacts from the cable to the connector on the mobo, but doesn't sound like a good permanent solution.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Man, that's beyond my brain :rofl: I'm no good with hardware for now. I'd like to get into hardmods in future though
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Maybe start practice soldering. Get a cheap-ass soldering iron and follow some good YouTube tutorials.

  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    Least my experience has gotten better than over a decade ago. My iron would constantly bump into components and break them.
  • Maximumbeans @ Maximumbeans:
    Sounds good. I actually did soldering but like 16 years ago for school so uuuuh probably rusty haha
  • SylverReZ @ SylverReZ:
    @Maximumbeans, Same here. I did soldering at school from a teacher who I honestly liked since he had plenty of good electronics experience.
