Colors changing on s4, not adapt display

So yeah does anyone else have this issue? My s4 colors tend to get warmer and like have a green tint when the keyboard is pulled up any keyboard for that matter in any app with adapt display on or off and auto brightness off or on. Like the status bar turns greenish too. It's so strange.

Yes. But only when the keyboard is up. The color of the whole phone gets warmer

Maybe power saving mode?

Nope. It like changes the
Saturation a little when the keyboard tray is displayed.

interesting.

I want to see if someone else can test this. Open up or even reply and look at the status bar and tell me if the black becomes like a greenish tint as well as the whole screen. Then close the keyboard and watch it change back to normal.

I see it change a slight bit, but my face has to be pressed up against the glass when opening the keyboard to even notice. Is this really an issue?

No but I was just curious as to why it did it

I have exactly the same problem on Verizon S4. It really bothers my eyes as it seems to be changing the white balance / tint simply based on what's on the screen all the time. I have of course turned off all options that have anything to do with automatically adjusting the display.

I have the exact same problem with my GS4 international version. The problem gets even worst when playing a youtube video. The colour of the youtube video and the whole screen changes when the status bar is present and when it is not. The whole screen becomes reddish when the status bar is present and greenish when the status bar is not present. Any help on how to disable or fix this?

No but people seem to not realize it's even there. It's built into touchwiz. Only goes away in like cyanogenmod or something. But I'm sure it can be fixed if a dev wants to help so let's all keep this rolling. Anyone else notice it?

I noticed all the Hues are screwed up, even with out a keyboard being displayed. Internet surfing, playing games, Navigation.
I miss my Galaxy S2 because it didnt have this issue.
Edit:
Compared my s4 with Note2, and note 2 cilors and hues are so much better.

I don't see a change. ..

I have the same issue but mine happens very rarely. It's super annoying. Has anyone tried deleting colorblind.apk?

After I noticed it a few days ago, I think it is ok now, at least not as bad as the first time i saw it. Youtube video seems to be ok now with very very tiny bit of change in colours and contrast compared to yesterday with the same video. I think it might just be some bugs in the software. I did try restarting it many times yesterday and also disabling auto brightness, auto adjust screen tone and adapt display and that didn't help at all but now it's just kind of fixed itself

I just realised that this only happen when the brightness is set at a very low level. The effect is less noticeable when the brightness is high.

Yes so it's throttling the display to save battery and such

Does flashing cm10.1 fix the issue?

Wrong Notification LED Color Mapping

This is super frustrating. International SM-N900. I first noticed this problem when setting my whatsapp blink LED colors and noticed that the colors was wrong. Turns out some the mapping is incorrect for the phone.
Can you guys test this along with me?
Download LED tester from google play.
I think the colors white and orange are broken

Damn that sucks - at least mine has a couple different colors.
I ran more test - even though the white looks green, it is actually a different shade than the actual green HEX color .. Don't know if I should be happy or not.

Tested with light manager 900T USA TMO works fine. Much better than the S3 which was like 4 colors.

Does your white has a green/yellow tinge?

The white is actual pretty white. Again coming from a TMO s3 that was never a pure color maybe my vision is skewed.

tested out one app already and the color wouldn't change from blue...i could only get it to show blue when i hit test no matter what color i selected... i'll try this other app some time, but i'm on the SM-N900W8 for what it's worth

First thing I noticed about mine N900T and wifes N900A. LED colors are all mashed up and mixed up.
I also just now ran the LED tester app, any color I chose results in the LED flashing green with a bit of red in it LOL

[Q] Is there a way to adjust the color calibration

I'm rooted on the i9505g and I'm having no luck finding a way to adjust the rgb color calibration of the display. The display appears too warm to my eyes and I would like to match the cooler display of my nexus 4. It's especially noticeable when I have a white background like in Google plus. Whites appear more yellow than pure white and it's driving me nuts. Thanks in advance for any help

Thanks but I already tried that and it doesn't seem to actually adjust the colors but instead it applies overlay of color

I'm not sure exactly what you mean. If you have auto brightness unchecked your screen will won't automatically change based on your surrounding illumination. If you do check it-it should brighten when in direct light and dim in the dark. So are you're saying it isn't changing brightness based on surrounding light correctly (when checked) or you're expecting it to change brightness not checked?

If you have the screen mode to adaptive display , that might be the cause of it. Go to settings/display/screen mode.

Hello,
I have noticed flickering of the always on screen, but prior to the update and just when it is really really bright outside (on a sunny day) so the brigthness goes up but the clock flickered a little bit. I do not know if that is normal or not ....

For me it's the opposit. I can only see the flickering in a dark enviroment, when the brightness is on a low level.

so did anyone find a solution yet?

I did a factory reset a few days ago. Problem still there.
Maybe the September update will fix the bug.
