Mura fix with swapped screen
Have a steam deck oled. On latest main that applies the mura compensation. Had a question, since my screen was replaced due to a defect, the mura map for the old screen and not the new one is on the device. Am i out of luck with my hsrdwarr on having mura compensation. Kinda feels pretty bad that my steam deck had a screen defect out of my control and now a fix for an inherent issue cant be corrected because of it. How exactly does the 3.6 main version apply the mura compensation, are there plans for fixes for people in my shoes
It makes the brighter scenes have less mura. But on dark scenes it raises the blacks even more and makes it look even more lcd like.
Sadly not even a fix. The only way to get decent oled like black levels is 45 refresh rate and sub 50% brightness with no hdr.
Anything? Would love to get an understanding on valves idea to fix
Try using the "mura re-arm" setting under the developer options

And, no, swapping the screen won't change it, it's not a hardware defect even though it really looks like it! But it's deceptive, it's just the mura compensation of 3.6 that destroys true blacks.

Well for me the issue is that since the screen was swapped. The old mura map is being placed onto this new screen which has its own unique mura and because of that it sort of doubles the issue. Here is an example. You can see with it enabled you actually almost get a 3d like effect. It makes it worse( mura compensation disabled on the left and enabled on the right )
No fix dude. You had to buy the limited edition.
Same shot/settings. This is the difference between people who bought the LE and the regular Oled.
Valve used the same garbage panels that all these new "Cheap" oled devices have. It's a shame because it ruins 80% of the oled experience not having any color in near black and having broken black levels and incorrect gamma in hdr unless you go to 45% brightness or lower and then force 45 refresh on the samsung panels.
You think if I buy the 1tb screen from ifixit it would be the BOE screen? Is there a way to tell. Couldn't I theoretically just swap them and bam if it is a BOE I'd be golden. Though I might have to fight with dead pixels so who knows
