J7 Pro AOD problem - Samsung Galaxy J7 (2017) Questions & Answers

Hi everybody. Recently I bought a J7 pro for several reasons, one of which was Always on Display, a.k.a AOD. However from the first night I used it as a night clock I could apparently see that the background of the clock and notifications is not black and has a faint light. The funny part is that the preview of AOD is fine with all the black pixels off, but when you actually use it, all the pixels are on. I asked several J730F owners and they had the same problem, however my device is J730G. Please test and report. Just remember the environment must be completely dark.

Hey
I have the same problem
I have a j730f/D's
It's really frustrating and I guess it drains the battery a lot
I also noticed the that the preview of the aod is perfect on all brightness levels
Maybe thats because the display panel uses different settings when real aod is on ( like udervoltage and lower refresh rate things like this but I am not an expert )
Also visible on 3rd party apps from the PlayStore
I guess Samsung is using some hardware tweaks there to optimise battery life
What I also noticed is when the real aod is set to full brightness because of the sunlight the screen really gets black ( you can try this with a flashlight or so )
But on the lowest brightness the screen gets grey .
Would love to know if this is just software related or hardware
Because if it is hardware I give it a try and send it back

I have no problem on 3rd party apps, yet battery drain is not acceptable.

That's exactly my situation as well. On low brightness the screen is unbearably gray, otherwise it seems to be completely black. I guess you can try sending it back, unfortunately I don't have that option.

3rd party apps sucks because they can't use this special display mode Samsung uses
Maybe I will send it back
But I am not sure about that I wanted to wait until an update is coming, maybe it's software related so they can fix it .
I also send an email to Samsung but I saw your post on the Samsung forum so I don't expect too much
With how many ppl did you talk about that problem that have the j730f ? I mean it doesn't make sense to send it back and get a new one if it is a problem for every device

I got the same issue on my J730G/DS. When on low brightness aod, i can notice the whole screen lighting up a little bit. But on high brightness it is completely black. I think all j7 pro have this issue. At least we could try to send it back to samsung and see if they will fix or even do something about this issue.

Unfortunately we don't have a robust Samsung representative here and I believe we cannot convince them about this issue. I believe you guys should go for the guarantee. This way at least you raise the issue to their awareness in practice.

I have the same issue too.
I've chatted with samsung and ask them to try this but they keep saying "All of our units are fine".

In fact, as I check the problem with several users of the 16 and 32 GB variants of both Chinese and Philippines models, it seems ALL their units are faulty.

I found several threads out there talking about this problem. Generally the problem was with S7 and other Samsung flagship devices. In all the circumstances there, the problem only was fixed by changing the AMOLED panel. However here in J7 pro it seems that when the screen is well lit, the black is truly black and when the ambient sensor reduces the light the problem shows its ugly face. This problem was not mentioned anywhere in those threads I mentioned.

I don't wanna waste any more money on my phone. So yeah let see what will Samsung do. It's impossible that this is the AMOLED panel fault. Looks like the version of our AOD is a bit old. Try compare it with the A 2017 Nougat AOD.

i tried atleast 3 different third party aod apps and all worked fine but only fault was battery consumption. so maybe it is not hardware problem. its just software related. we can only hope that samsung fixes it soon by update

Although I hope so and believe that j7 problem is different from previous problems seen on other faulty aods, but the way aod works is different from the way other aod apps work.

Hey guys
I've borrowed my friend's J7 Pro to see if she had this AOD problem. After I bring it to a very dark place, the AOD works like it should (No grayish AOD background). Guess it's a hardware problem. I will try to send it back to Samsung if I have time.

Have u tried it when the screen light adjusts to the dark environment? If so please do send it back to make sure what the source of the problem is.

The AOD uses the ambient light sensor to decide what brightness should be used ( I think AOD only recognize Dark and Bright situation, just like most of the proximity sensors )
So because it's dark, the screen also adjust itself to dark situation. No grayish background is seen. I compare mine with her side by side and I can see the difference.
Another thing to proof that this is a hardware problem is that when you put your finger on the fingerprint sensor and it unlocks, between the unlocking process, you can see the screen flicker before it unlocks the phone. Same as when you boot up the phone. Right after when you press the power button and it vibrate, you can see a flicker before "Samsung Galaxy J7 Pro" is shown.

Please do us all a huge favor and take some time and send the device to Samsung (I would if my phone was under warranty) so we can make sure what the root of the problem is and don't raise our hopes. :good:

I will find some time to send it back to Samsung. The distance from My home to the nearest Samsung Service Center is very far, took me about half an hour with usual traffic. But they are usually traffic jammed, so I predict an hour trip to the SSC. Not an easy job though I'm very busy all day.

Hey folks.
This Community works largely with US based devices so it's hard for us to speak on what may or may not have been in that update to cause this. You are welcome to see if the Community can assist, but as many may not have the same device as you it might also be worth reaching out to your region specifically for more in depth assistance!

I have this issue ever since I bough the phone in early August. Not 1 but 2 unit, model SM-J730G/DS. Both show the same symptom. Do Samsung selling phone with defect amoled panel or poor software implementation? What the hell!
If you all notice, the official samsung's AOD app for our J7 pro is not available anymore in Play Store. Why they remove support for our device? Why? From the feedback there, a lot of j7 pro owner report about this aod problem...

[DISCUSS] Screen brightness sensor a joke!!

Sending this straight back, I cannot believe there is no option to disable auto brightness settings on this heap of ++++.
It has got a mind of its own and is extremely annoying to suddenly see the screen get dim and bright every 5 seconds without any change in actual lighting condition...it makes the phone almost unusable.
Hope someone can make a hack for this soon.

Yes, totally a reason to send it back, software bug on a phone with a unlockable bootloader. Hope your next one doesn't have any real issues
Maybe this was the software bug vodafone was saying?

sure you can't find a solution? It must be somewhere in the settings (I'm no android expert though).
It's not a "software bug", it's SE dictating to us that in order for the paltry battery to last a day, we need to use it in the dark, or disco mode!

... unless the sensor it's self is dicked, then it can be fixed in software, even if it is dicked, it can be completely disabled.... just cool your jets.
well i report no such shinanigans happening on my phone! i can see the light sensor in action when i cover it with my thumb, it works really well and the gradient of fading and lighting up is the best i've seen on any phone so far! i dont notice it when using it normally.
you must have a faulty one....

They have to stop the complaints some how, at least the speakers are not gimped
Thought I'd mention that I have no such problem with my device.
I'm very happy with the screen. Especially good as I moved from a nexus one.

Can't you install brightness level from the market to controll the auto brightness ?
Wanna control your brightness levels quick and easy? I use a very slick widget called Dazzle. It has every option you can think of to control just about everything on your phone. Give it a try.

I don't seem to have auto-brightness, do have a slide in the settings to ste brightness though, on highest I can easely see in the sun and it hurts in the dark, on the lowest settings it's hard to read at night.
A Dutch review actually mentioned a lack of auto-brightness as one of the downsides to this device.

It does have Auto Brightness as if you put a finger over the light sensor the phone screens dim.
The phone had an update pending the day I purchased it so most of the reviews I have seen are out of date. This phone is excellent at playing games.

I hear that. In love with my Xperia Play.
Guys can someone tell me. A lot of reviews say that the screen is very dim even on max setting and a lot of reviews say the exact opposite. So what is it?
Mine is perfect in the sun. I'm starting to think there are 2 types of screens involved, anyway to check what screen you have without opening the device up?
Screen brightness is ok for me, but just remarked the display have some ghosting issues. Slide beetween programs screens and observe carrefully the icons.... with red "Adresse" one this is very visible. i can't belive sony use a high response time display on a gamer device.

SNote sucks

First the brightness issue,
Now that I actually tried to use it for a extended period, I'm finding my palm always hits the edge and moves the scrollbars
I had a tablet pc many years ago that provides a much better note taking experience
Cool Story Bro
Mine is awesome.

Poor Samsung. First, everyone *****ed about the panning box they used to allow you to move through a note you're working on. Then, they changed it and replaced it with a scroll bar and people are *****ing about that too. I don't know which version of S-Note you're on but in the version included in JB with "only recognize the S-Pen" enabled it's really really hard to inadvertantly hit the scroll bars so maybe that'll solve your problem. As for the brightness being ramped up in S-Note I get the logic and it shows how much they think about how people use their devices and apps. If you think about, since the Note's a drawing device, people could be using it at any angle and in any position. Disabling auto-brightness kind of makes sense so that the screen doesn't fade in and out if someone's hand is over the ambient light sensor. Oh well, you can't please all the people all the time.
"version included in JB"
Jelly Bean? I thought the US Note 10.1 were still in ICS

Doesn't mean that you can't flash another rom...
I don't use autobrightness so it changing the levels drives me absolutely nuts. E.g. I'm working in a dark room so have the level turned down to what suits me best. I open snoteb and up it goes. I turn it back down manually, jump to another app for a moment for whatever reason, say to read some info in a pdf, switch back to snote and, bam, blinded again.
There's a reason why autobrightness can be toggled on and off, and one app ignoring that convention is infuriating.
actually if you use autobrightness, the brightness levels still change
"Disabling auto-brightness kind of makes sense so that the screen doesn't fade in and out if someone's hand is over the ambient light sensor. Oh well, you can't please all the people all the time."
If this is the case, then there are definitely better solutions than the one Samsung implemented. For example, putting a timer on the ambient light sensor so it doesn't react to accidentally being covered up. If it's only briefly covered up, the brightness won't change. If it's really in a dark room and sensing low light with no interruption for say 1 minute, then change the brightness.
So, it's hard to believe that Samsung would make SNote change the brightness autmoatically as a "feature". Samsung makes great products, but we dont have to idolize them the way that iOS Sheep idolize Apple.

If you're referring to me I chose the Teg3 One X over the SGS3 and am very happy with my choice. Here's a demonstration of my lack of idolization. In JB, putting the multiview selector to the right of the more important and more often used "settings" selector wasn't very well thought out from a usability perspective.
S-Note turning up the brightness works fine for me and I kind of like it since auto-brightness tends to be on the dim side normally. I'd probably like it less if I frequently took notes in a dark room which I don't. I don't assume everyone uses their device like I do so I certainly wouldn't invoke my opinion of a feature on others.
This is why I use lecture notes.
There is no brightness ISSUE.
They increase brightness on purpose to make drawing more precise.

You can't upgrade or downgrade S-Note with just the single APK. There are supporting files that have to be changed along with it. When PDF import was borked on some versions of S-Note folks tried to update it with a newer version of the APK alone and it failed.
Actualy, I did the backup with titaniun but when I tried to restore now I am getting FC. Any idea how can I fix it then?

Yes they can, they can let us make up our own mind as to what level of brightness we want, the same as we do with every other app. Why bother having a brightness setting at all if that's the case, just get rid of it entirely as they know better.

Auto brightness is off but screen still changes brightness

Im using a att s6 edge+. seems with auto brightness off the phone still changes brightness in a dark room. im coming from a note 4 and this never happened. i did read alot of issues like this on the smaller s6 edge. some people said to download lux or other brightness control apps but none of these have helped. I have also changed to each different display option to no avail. i tried with my flashlight while in a room and the phone did change brightness. also to note.... even the light coming off my tv was enough to change the intensity of the phones brightness. did i get a defective phone. there hasn't been a fix and searching online for this new phone has been pretty difficult. any advice would be great. my personal preference has always been to have the screen on max brightness but that's a personal choice.

Would also love a way to fix this, it's incredibly annoying, i cant stand it... I've also tried several "fixes" none have helped.
sucks because the only time i ever get full brightness is when im in a room with ALOT of light. only then will the screen go to full brightness.
Same Issue
Has there ever been any type of resolution to this? My phone does this as well. Don't want to return it for a refurbished Verizon phone that has a high change of also having the same problem. Don't want to root and lose Samsung capabilities and void the warranty. Just had a software update TODAY, this very morning and it didn't fix it. Call Samsung and they play stupid and act like they've never heard of it. This isn't a big deal in the grand scheme of things but at the end of the day when I'm trying to read at night or just browse the web and I have my bedroom lights off, I want my screen to be vivid and bright, but I get dull and dim.
---------- Post added at 12:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:29 PM ----------
What discourages me the most is that I just got this phone about 2 weeks ago and noticed this within the first few days. I google this problem and I see threads being posted about this mostly starting in April of 2015. We're now in late October and this is still going on, which leads me to believe Samsung is just not acknowledging the issue at all. I'm tempted to root just to fix this, but don't want to void the warranty and lose Samsung features like the edge notifications and clock.

Have you tried going into settings > Display > Screen Mode and switching off/changing from Adaptive display? Adaptive display is the default setting and this also messes with your brightness and colors dependent on your ambient lighting.
This is a well known bug on most S6's - Looks like a Firmware update should fix this issue.
Turn auto brightness off and set to max brightness ,then hold the phone to a bright light you will see the brightness dim after a few seconds, +BUG+

I didn't understand a dam word of it. Do you have to be rooted to do that? I'm hoping they fix it for the edge + soon, very annoying bug....

Black Crush S10 Plus ?

I bought a galaxy S10 Plus recently and I already noticed the same problem of display as my old galaxy s9 plus, the dark parts are pixelated, the famous black crush, I am well stressed, I sold my s9 plus and bought the s10 plus only because of this problem, is there any way to resolve this without application? the screen balance spoils the image more than it improves.

I've done it until the hard reset did not solve it, I restored the original software from Brazil's sammobile site and it also did not change anything ... what can I do?

If it's a problem getting worse each day either return the device or contact Samsung for a warranty. I have zero problems with mine .

I bought mine at a clear call operator in Brazil, the deadline for the default return is 7 days, I bought day 5 I think it's gone, will the technical assistance solve this without further problems?
That sucks. My S10+ doesn't have this problem. I hated that **** on my S9+.

ambient display brightness adjustment

ambient display is, for me, in many situations, too dim, or it turns off in dark as it says - is it possible to disable this i noticed samsung and huawei phones don't have this issue and their always on displays are nice and bright always

Me to, in dark situations, too dim, or it turns off when you go from light to dark, think that adaptive brightness have problem on all xiaomi phones, don't know is this problem with MIUI 10, MIUI 11 or something wrong with android 9, we will see what will be with android 10.
Well i bought mi to have at least some notifications as oneplus does to have any, but i think, i would be better of with oneplus as nothing when it is not supposed to work is better then nothing when there should be aod, but it is mostly to dark it is impossible to see or just plain off.
Well to be honest, only Samsung was where I was AOD to be really working, not even pixel or huawei was without issues. So I wonder where to go next time - I guess apple, as in EU samsungs have weird power hungry chips.
Tough I wanted full display without holes and I got it and it look really nice, shame that other functionality of the phone after update to miui11 is gone.
I have created a work around fix for this little annoying problem.
I used Tasker and made 5 profiles that reads Display Light values and adjust the Display Brightness .
I have set Auto Brightness OFF
Check it and give feedback if you find it useful.
I attach the tasker file to import it
So is there a solution for this nonsense issue already? Googling around and can't find a fix for over a year now.
I did not notice this issue on any other xiaomi phone, including mi6, mi8pro, mi9se.
This is so annoying, I want to throw this phone in to a wall at times. But then I remwmber how much time it takes to fully set up a new one.
