My phone display has always had a yellowish tint but it's tolerable. Lately though, display turns really yellow and the colors which were pretty vivid before, become washed out. After a couple of hours, display goes back to being okay. Then becomes problematic again. This has become a cycle and it's driving me crazy! Can anyone please help me? Adaptive brightness and blue light filter are turned off.
There's also a display setting called "Display Mode", or "Color Mode", check it too.
Check accessibility settings as well.
You may want to boot into safe mode to check if problem is caused by a user app.

i tried as above but not solved plz help..
I am also suffering this issue (S4 I9505 screen flickering - half screen).
This issue happens for using the low brightness and the power saving option. If you don't have the warranty from Samsung, at the moment these are the options (no solutions) that you can do to avoid the screen flickering:
- Brightness Level (maximum)
- Auto brightness (unchecked)
- Auto adjust screen tone (unchecked)
- Don't use the power saving
- Install "Screen Filter" module in Xposed
I have noticed that the low temperatures affect to this issue, and also the vibrations (after using the bike the first timeS the screen is flickering)
I don't know what causes this issue, if... it is a HW error or a bug after to install something, no idea
If someone knows another solution, please share here! Thanks
What's up guys! I've been having a problem with my phone that turns all red colors a little brighter, to a pinkish color. It's REALLY weird because I know it's not the hardware. When I restart, the colors all go normal and red for about 15 seconds after boot. After about 15 seconds, the color resets back to pink. This change from red to pink happens everywhere. On the home screen, inside apps, and in videos.
I have check all the settings like brightness and adapt display and nothing is out of place.
I will probably factory reset my phone if I can't find a solution but then I'll root to use titanium back up.
Anyone have any ideas?

Are you saying your screen mode is set to adapt display? I have my device set to movie and I can see the change in colors when my S4 switches from the normal screen profile to the movie profile shortly after boot. Although, if you have screen mode set to adapt display you shouldn't notice any change in the colors.

Adapt display was checked. But I found the problem, it was actually the Color Adjustment setting in the "Accessibility" section.
Thanks for the reply!

Hey guys,
so far I’m really happy with my new 6T. But I’ve found one bug which I’d like to see fixed.
I like to use either the sRGB or the DCI-P3 color profile as the standard color profile is just too saturated and contrasty for my liking. And at night, I’d like to use the display night mode, to reduce blue light. Unfortunately, if the screen is off and I wake up the phone, (doesn’t matter if it’s via face unlock or screen unlock) the screen changes itself to Standard color profile and you can slowly see the night mode take effect – but on top of the standard color profile which is, as mentioned above, not my cup of tea. It happens with both sRGB and DCI-P3 profiles and night mode enabled.
Only if you then turn night mode off again, you can literally see the colors jump back to your original set profile. Which obviously cannot and should not be the intended way night mode works, as night mode also reduces contrast and saturation. This can be seen if you have set the color profile to Standard in the first place and then turn on night mode, which basically shifts the colors to sRGB. Curiously enough, if you then lock the phone and wake it up, everything is as it should be and as I'd like it to be when sRGB is the set profile, meaning the color profile stays sRGB like and night mode is in effect.
I’m running completely stock Oxygen OS 9.0.5., no root, didn’t unlock bootloader or anything.
Does anyone else experience this behavior? Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
I've been trying to find an answer to this issue since I got the phone. It is appalling that both ambient display and the lock screen are not affected by night mode. It is completely counteractive to how night mode should work.
And I have no idea why they disable color profiles when in night mode. In the settings menu, once you enable night mode, the screen calibration option is greyed out. But it is clearly not a technical limitation because enabling sRGB and then night mode produces the proper effect of a night-shifted sRGB color space. Waking the phone at night turns night mode off on the lock screen, and puts it in standard profile, then shifts to night-shifted standard profile after unlocking. I hate it.
If you come across an answer, please post it back here so others (and I) can find it.
Also, small technical note: night mode does not affect saturation or contrast or color space, only color temperature. sRGB is an entirely different color space with different saturation and gamma curves.

Thanks for your reply. Glad I'm at least not the only one noticing this issue.
As to your last statement, I would've thought so too. But this does not seem to be the case here. If you set the color profile to standard and then turn on night mode, the color space gets changed to sRGB, at least from what I can see. It looks completely different than the falsely activated night shifted standard profile, and looks exactly like the night mode in top of the sRGB mode, so less saturation and contrast (gamma). I don't know if this is intentional but makes it all the more confusing, because it retains the combination of sRGB + night mode even after locking and unlocking.

Wow, you are exactly right. I never thought to try that method, but I agree with your assessment. In standard calibration, night mode also toggles sRGB on and off. This is not affected by lock.
In both sRGB and DCI-P3, toggling night mode does not change calibration, but waking from lock leaves it stuck in standard calibration until you toggle night mode again.
And in all scenarios, the lock screen is never in night mode. Also, the add fingerprint page disables night mode and sticks you back into standard calibration with night mode, no matter which calibration you had selected. So the add fingerprint page acts exactly like the lock screen. This leads me to believe that the fingerprint sensor needs a very specific color of light to operate. But that doesn't excuse the fact that calibration keeps switching and getting stuck. I would think they can override that though.
I just made a post about this on reddit. Maybe up vote it to help increase visibility as this is the first mention I've seen about this issue other than this reddit post.

The whole night mode issues and ambient display going max brightness are super frustrating. This is my first non Nexus/pixel since the oneplus 1, and these small issues are making me question if leaving for a less stable manufacturer was a good idea
After doing some more testing, I've determined this whole ordeal is tied to the fingerprint sensor. Deleting all my fingerprints (disabling it entirely) has resolved all the issues of switching calibrations an night mode toggling. Everything works as it should, except ambient display never is night mode. But the lock screen is in night mode.
I'm personally ok with this for now. Face unlock is very quick, and smart lock keeps my phone unlocked at home at night. Hopefully this gets fixed for real in a future update.

Exactly what i discover. Night mode not works when fingerprint senor is active which means on screen lock and app lock.Don't know weather they do it intentionally(to work fp sensor fine) on not but this is seriously irritating and painful to eyes.
Does anyone else has a problem with ambient always on display not working? Most of the time it is there, but even if I turn off the Scheduler, sometimes off for hours, just the black screen. 10.3.10 MIUI
Yes, the same issue for me. Little annoying, but I hope it will be fixed in the next update. Maybe I will for now just turn off the always-on display.
You should read the description
Could you be more specific please?
"To reduce power consumption, items won't be displayed in the following situations:
1. When your device lies in dark for a long time.
2. When DND mode is on"
Haha, didn't saw that, but still, my room wasn't dark at all and it still went off. For now I have just disabled that option, and if that is only big bug I will be super happy.
I also was disappointing with the screen washed out compared to my Note 9 side by side. I notice, that this bug only happens on the home screen, (setting wallpaper), and the washed out bug doesn't happen in the gallery app. So I knew this had to be a software issue and not the screen.
Seeing as it only happened on the homescreen, it got me wondering if dark mode could be broken causing the screen to wash out.. So after turning it back to light mode in display settings......it worked!
This was bugging me for the last month. Now its looking just as good if not better then my Note 9 side by side. Chime in if it works for you.
Will have to wait on a fix for dark mode, but i'm fine with that.
Update: I stand corrected. User megatooth suggested disabling the "Apply Dark Mode to Wallpaper " in dark mode settings, and that worked. Washed out still gone, and still have dark mode. I didn't even know about that setting. :laugh: Everyone bow to megatooth.
Did you try disabling the "Apply Dark Mode to Wallpaper" setting that can be found by long pressing on the home screen and then selecting Wallpaper?
Wow, Megatooth, you're the man. I didn't even know about that, and yes, that also fixed the problem, so I guess the culprit to the washed out screen is that setting.
