Screenshots never show hardware issues (i.e dead pixels, red screen issue, etc), as they are generated by software. You should take a shot of your screen with an external camera instead a screenshot.

Hi! This particular and weird behavior has been happening on my phone for a while now.
Whenever I put my screen brightness on the lowest level, a yellow, flickering, transparent bar appears overlaid on the dock area. No matter where I navigate on my phone its present on the screen. I think it has to do with the screen hardware because I cant take a screenshot of it. Maybe something to do with a screen controller. The yellow tint is simply present at low brightness.
When I raise the brightness again it simply disappears. I have no idea why this could happen. Anyone else had this happen to them before?

Try changing kernels. Example. Going back to pure stock. If the problem persists just put it to full brightness, watch a long video and put the brightness at low again. And see if that works. If not then it is probably a hardware problem.

Hello
My S5 randomly began flickering with a green screen to the point where I was unable to use my screen. It seems to happen a lot especially when I have the "Auto Brightness" feature on and when it's in a low light environment
I didn't drop the phone , and i tried many solutions , wipe data partition , change the ROM ( to official )
but no solution solve it
PS: I can't make a link from youtube explain my problem by video , but you can search on youtube " Samsung S5 Green flickering screen " to know what exactly the problem is !
cause of this error

yes that's happened often and the phone unlock without any problem, but sometimes the green flickering won't let me unlock the phone
This is a common problem with AMOLED displays. At a certain point when auto brightness or you manually turn the brightness down, the low power involved makes the screen flicker. Try turning off auto brightness and adjusting the sloder until it stops flickering, then you can use apps like Pixel Filter and/or the xposed module Screen Filter to further darken the screen to save battery.

This is a hardware failure. The fix is change screen which can cost as much as a new phone. There are several youtube videos showing that applying hot guns can fix the problem
DEAR ALL
still facing red tint issue even after fix update what to do?
please guide me.
There's no other solution if you've moved the red-tint slider down to minimal and you still have too much red tint. Either you exchange it or try to live with it. Cmiiw
You're one of few, like me, and have to live with it yes.
My adaptive is reasonable, bit strange with such an expensive device to call it that. But my amoled modes are as pink as they were on day 1.
I don't find any other news about any more fixes either. So samsung probably thinks everybody is enjoying their fantastic looking s8 and + versions.
Ps. You could bring it to samsung repair and let them recalibrate or repair your screen.
did you try???
Sent from my Samsung SM-G950F using XDA Labs
yes bro tried everything but still there
The red is so annoying I agree, when I bought my S8 earlier this month the display was fine up until last week when it suddenly started turning red after sunset and the red lasts until sunrise!! I have tried all the possible adjustments with no result in all display modes and modifications. The red is so annoying to live with. At night when I change the phone time to am, it goes back to the regular display and all is well until sunset. I tried it in different timezones, it also adapts the black timing to the local sunset time! I haven't read/heard/seen anyone face this problem., am I the only one?
That thing is what you call night mode or Blue light filter you can turn it off
Mine looks pretty good on adaptive, but on other modes it's a bit reddish. I really wish Samsung released the sliders on the other modes too.

Hey thanks but I forgot to mention that:
- the red screen comes up even if the blue light filter is switched off
- the red screen shows up in all displays (Adaptive -even if the red is reduced to a minimum in the Advanced options , AMOLED cinema, AMOLED photo and basic modes)
- the red from the red screen is different from the nightmode's yellow-ish colour.
I am not sure if the warranty covers it. but I will speak to Samsung customer service and see if anyone has faced this before
after adjusting the RGBs and the display edge adjuster, the top of my display still appears slightly red..as though there is a reddish band at the top.. anyone?
My OnePlus 5 has a slight red tint on the bottom half of the screen which is especially noticeable on white background at high brightness.
What's weird is though when I watch a video on YouTube even for just 30 seconds or so the tint disappears.
It comes back after 5-10 seconds though like color settings get changed or something.
Does that mean if I use an app like kcal to calibrate the display and make the tint go away?
I only ask because I know next to nothing about rooting and I don't wanna screw anything up.
I think you turned night mode on then the screen gets an red tint.

No. Night mode is off.
Contact Oneplus Support. Take a picture and Open a ticket
Hi there did you manage to fix it?

Not yet. I'll root after the 8.0 ota.
Strange that happens only on few users did you place a ticket on OnePlus Support?

No because it's a defective AMOLED issue I guess. I would have just returned it if I had noticed it before. Hopefully I can make it less annoying using kcal.
Hi, I moved from OG pixel to pixel 4 and noticed that screen has problem. On 100% on brightness when opening totally black picture screen is not totally turned off and when touching it screen greys out a bit. Is it bug or hardware issue?
Can anyone check it on own device?

I have noticed the following: When screen brightness is 50% or less and I touch the screen such as typing on keyboard, the screen flashes very slightly on every tap. It feels like the screen draws too much power and battery is low. I went to Verizon store to check display unit and it did the same thing. Maybe your issue is similar

I didn't contact Google because the store model had the same thing. I just tried to troubleshoot what could be causing it and seems that when I disable "smooth display" in settings>display and then tried to reproduce the issue by typing on the keyboard and the screen doesn't seem to flicker anymore.
Try to disable the setting on your phone and see. This might be a software issue then.
I found similar thread(you are probably on it too) on Google community site and replied to that thread: https://support.google.com/pixelphone/thread/22331033?hl=en

You are right I disabled smooth display and it stopped flickering but there is one more thing when brightness is on 100% and opening totally black picture I can notice little lightning of the screen in corners it means that pixels are not going off like it should be on oled screens. Could you please check it also?
It could be checked only in the dark daytime it's not noticable

Alright, I found a black image with only a small moon in the middle. Did the test on 100% full brightness but don't see any pixels on the screen. Check my image(attached) and compare.

Yes, of course. I turned off the lights. I have seen issues where some phones had some light seeping through(light bleed) at some edges. Is that what you see?

Picture was taken from og pixel with night sight mode, It's not such noticable from eye

It is difficult to understand anything from the picture. Try some display test apps. Check to see if you have something installed such as 3rd party theme or an app that interferes with the display of your phone. Also if you can compare your phone with the one from the store.

If it is in the corner(s) then it is light bleed. The screen is good and it is just some screen backlight being seen through the frame. At least this is how I understand your situation from my previous experience.
