Jul 22, 2021

How to reproduce:
1. Open the user's attached "BugIMGUIlinearAndroid" project
2. Connect Android (or iOS) device
3. Open the Build Settings... (File->Build Settings...)
4. Switch to the Android Platform
5. Build and Run the "SampleScene"

Expected results: All the squares are the same color
Actual results: The IMGUI squares (on the left) are brighter than the middle ones

Reproducible with: 2019.4.29f1, 2020.3.15f1, 2021.1.16f1, 2021.2.0b5, 2022.1.0a4

Reproducible on:
VLNQA00286, Meizu Pro 5 (PRO 5), Android 7.0, CPU: Exynos 7 Octa 7420, GPU: Mali-T760
VLNQA00313, Huawei Y6 Ⅱ Compact (HUAWEI LYO-L01), Android 5.1, CPU: MediaTek MT6735, GPU: Mali-T720
VLNQA00294, Oppo OPPO Reno Z (PCDM10), Android 11, CPU: NOT FOUND, GPU: PowerVR Rogue GM9446

iPhone 12 Pro (iOS 14.2.1), iPhone 6S (iOS 13.3.1)

Notes:
- The issue has been reproduced on OpenGLES3 with Linear Color Space
- The issue is also reproducible with Vulkan and Linear Color Space but only if SRGB Write Mode is disabled in the Vulkan Settings

Resolution Note (2022.1.X):

IMGUI does not support Linear Color Space and it's not recommended for Player Runtime.
Please use a different UI system.

Currently I'm working around this issue by using:

GUI.color = theColor.linear;

The [ColorUsage] could probably also be used somehow, but I couldn't even find confirmation that the regular Color was always interpreted as sRGB.
