Capacitive buttons brightness? - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i noticed that in the s4(mine at least) the lights on the capactive buttons(menu, back) seem kind of dim
on my s3 they are superbright compared to those on my s4, i dont know if this is a hardware issue or if the black s4 has dimmer lights by default

This is how all black S4's are. The white ones are much much brighter. Not sure why this is but it is this way for everyone I've seen.

Bad tint

My screen has a tarnish yellow tint that is very visible when looking at Web pages but I can only really see the tint when I look straight on at the phone. Is there a way to fix that and to fix the ugly black blotches in the dark?

If very easy to see yellow tint, go to Samsung service center. About blotch in the dark, that's normal

So, nothing wrong here, if you can use it normally.

Oh it's definitely usable I'm just picky about that kind of stuff but I assume it's fixable bc some things look whiter so I'm assuming it's software

You mean change color when browsing? When browsing, go to menu button, setting and brightness. Try change from there.

Just the white looks a yellowish in general on the device not just on the browser but I'd like an explanation why I only notice the tint when looking straight on not from the side
I also have very slight banding of darker pixels when the screen is gray...grr more and more I look at screen more problems I see

can't see mine right now
I'll try later with sun light and correct angle

You either have the reddish black (only visible in near darkness) or the smear problem. I got mine swapped, and now I'm stuck with the smearing problem.......
My firmware is xuamdf

You can fix the smearing problem temporally

Can we dim the menu and back keys?

Hey guys I recently bought the Lux Auto Brightness app which dims your display according to your environment. I would like to dim my hardware keys because when I'm in a pitch black room the keys are still bright......Any ideas would be awesome. Thanks

Up to my knowledge you can only shorten the duration of the back lit keys or turn them off completely. Settings>Display>Touch key light duration. I have my keys to not lit up at all and i like it.
i dont see that option in display
