[Q] Strange Screen Colouring / Banding Since Update

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:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

Notification LED color

I'm pretty familiar with LightFlow and Light Manager, have used both on my 6P. They change the colors per app as they intend to. However I've been suspicious of battery drain with LightFlow and had some bugs with Light Manager that have led me to try without them.
Today I noticed that my Yahoo Fantasy app blinked purple without either app installed:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
(The pic kinda washed out but it was a nice bold purple color)
So.. Is this the app controlling its color? Or is this some Android feature that is making the LED color correspond to, perhaps, the app theme or icon? I swear I saw blue earlier today as well but was moving fast and not paying attention.

Home screen icons turning green

I am running stock CoS 12.1 on my ZUK Z1 and have been noticing that the icons on the home screen are getting corrupted and turning green (please see attachment).
I have noticed that this happens especially after the app receives an update. The green icons are still fully functional and load up the apps fine. Also these green icons do not show up on the app drawer, just the home screen.
It started with one app and now gradually more apps are following suit.
Please advise why this is happening and how to fix it.
Many 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.
