Recolor screen on Galaxy S2, S3 (some) and Note 1 phones.

Features & Capabilities

Galactic Night is an experimental night mode Chrome extension designed specifically for rooted Samsung Galaxy S2, S3, and Note 1 devices. It allows users to recolor their screens with various color modes such as red, green, blue, no-blue, sepia, black and white, reverse, and outdoor to improve visibility in the dark, save battery life, and facilitate tasks like astronomy and ebook reading. Leveraging the device's mDNIe system, Galactic Night maintains performance without impacting graphics speed.

While offering useful features like battery savings with monochromatic color modes and enhanced readability for ebooks, Galactic Night is discontinued and only compatible with certain devices. Users with Android 4.4 or newer are recommended to try the Color Changer Free app instead. The extension requires rooted devices and carries risks like potential AMOLED screen burn-in with prolonged usage.

However, many report limited device support, especially on newer Samsung models and non-Samsung devices. Issues include failure to detect root permissions correctly, app crashes on some devices, and general incompatibility beyond the supported phone list. Overall, while the app concept is well-liked, its restricted compatibility and stability problems limit its usefulness.
