[Q] Strange Screen Colouring / Banding Since Update - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've had my S4 for nearly 2 weeks, yesterday I got an update, no updates were available when I checked last week but it decided to tell me there was one yesterday, so I updated and since then on black screens (Mostly Messaging & Setting Menu's) I'm getting a strange colour banding, on the left hand side the black has a slight lighter bluey/greeny tint, tho it's not there if I look at a black wallpaper and also goes away if I change the screen mode to Dynamic, all the other settings and Adapt display it is visible, most noticeable at night tho, I'm sure it wasn't there before the update, Anyone had this strange problem?
I'll photoshop a picture to explain how I mean, screenshots don't seem to capture it, but it kinda looked similar to this.

[Q] Yellow tint?

Hi I've just got a Note 3 and immediately noticed that there was a yellowish tint to the screen compared to my LG G2. Is it normal?
I've got my Note3 for some time now and haven't noticed anything. You should probably replace it.
How bad is it? As far as I know, the G2 has a pretty cool colour temperature. The Note 3's is closer to the standard 6500k.
Small variations in color temperature and screen brightness are the norm. I think you'll find most prefer a warm screen tone (yellow-whites) to cold (blue-whites).
If you want to change it, I use this app:
Lux

Here's some screens:

Weird display problem - Artifacts but only on some apps

Hello,
Some people, me included, are having a problem with the display showing little white pixels dots, moving around (so they'r not stuck in the same place), only on some apps and menus.
As you can see in this thread, that has some screenshots: https://forums.oneplus.net/threads/oneplus-2-display-artifacts.365445/
The artifacts show up on screenshots, so it makes me thinking that it is not a hardware problem. Unfortunately, after factory reset and trying Cyanogen, the problem persists exactly the same.
For me, the problem only occurs in Android floating menus (like screenshot 1), some videos from apps (instagram, reddit sync), and camera (screenshot 2). Higher brightness accentuates the problem.
As I said, the dots move around, they'r not stuck, and only appear in some apps and menus

Does anybody have the same issue?
Maybe it's a graphics chipset problem?
Thanks

low contrast

Have you noticed the very low contrast that makes hard to play low light games, there are very few levels of black
Check lagom website.
Do you know any way to fix this without any app running in background?

Check this image with your Axon 7. I was able to fix it with screen balance, but the paid version.
Also to test and check you black levels go here:
http://www.lagom.nl/lcd-test/black.php
There is like 10% to 15% need of increased contrast just before it turns the black in grey.
I also search build prop but I have found nothing.
It is a shame to run always a background program just to fix this. The sound is great! Don't know what were they thinking when choose this dark setting for the screen.

Green tint with certain apps after last update? SOLVED.

Hello everyone, I would like to show you how I solved my green tint problem..
You can see on the images the clear problem with this...
The issue that cause that green spot its oneplus display feature "Vibrant Colour Effect Pro" on display settings.

VIBRANT COLOUR EFFECT OFF
That's interesting. Does it work in, for example Discord where the grey background looks greenish?
