This is a solution to an annoying bug with an experimental feature in chrome that interfere with the night mode in OnePlus that plays with the color temperature if it detects media rich content on a page.

There are devices other than from OnePlus that has the same issue with the color temperature. This issue specifically occurs with the night mode turned on as the experimental feature is effectively trying to give the media a pop. But when the night mode is ON, it gets specifically turned off for a bit while media rich are is on screen.

This is an internal settings page that contain some of the hidden settings of chrome.

in the address bar. After that, you will reach the flags page.

Once you enter the flags page search for
