I have noticed strange yellowish green when auto brightness on...Did anyone noticed it?
Not yet, can you make a photo or video?
I believe that it has got something to to do with the Adaptive Display instead. Try switching to other modes and see if the problem still persists (fixes that for me).

i have dat glitch too .. try up to MM and see result
I have the same problem on my a3 2016 when auto brightness on just on about 10 percent
I updated to marshmallow officially but still remains same..
Well it dosent show in the screenshot my bad but its there when view in person.
So it's a common problem then We can tell it to Samsung Customer care...
I've noticed that the Always On Display now lights up the entire screen, not just the pixels for the clock and date. As you can see in the pics, even the areas that are supposed to be black (i.e. unlit) are lit up in a dark black-ish kind of glow. This seems to be appearing after the most recent update. Is anyone else seeing this issue on their phones? Is this a software issue or a display problem? Would appreciate some insights on this. Thanks.
I dont have this problem

Technically speaking black color on AMOLED displays just turns off the pixels of the phone, it won't light up like what I saw from your picture.
If you are using a screen filter app such as twilight or night owl disable it and check, if not maybe try to reset your phone and I hope that is software related nothing more.

Not using those apps. I did a phone reset, but the problem persists.
Did You purchase Your phone from an official Samsung seller? Only phones with non AMOLED panel would light up the whole screen.
Edit: just checked my AOD, Your AOD looks slightly different than mine. On my AOD I can see a date and two small icons.
Can you post similar pictures with the default AOD clock widget?
I'm also experiencing the same issue with my S7 Edge. Problem started out of the blue two days ago; there might have been Play Store updates but I dont reckon any system updates that day. I've been using the night clock for weeks and it was working fine before now.
The problem seems to affect only AOD and night clock, since the edge feed (rubbing the side) works completely fine - only lights the used pixels. AOD and night clock light up the whole screen (not much, but clearly visible in a dark room, grayish background)
Tried resetting and flashing older firmwares via Odin but nothing changed. Hope we find an answer to this, it's shame I cant use the night clock nor the AOD since its killing battery now. :/
I remember S6 edge having the same issue with night clock?

Mine is working fine. You must have received an update to something in the last few days if it worked before. Either that or it's a hardware issue.
This seems like a LCD and not AMOLED.. Did you get your display changed due to any reason?
OP stated that the problem occured after an update, so I think it was working fine before that? So I wouldnt say he has S7 edge with LCD display (for whatever reason that's even possible). I can say this for sure about my situation anyway. No display changes or any other repairs, it just started malfunction for no apparent reason.
I tried a third party app for AOD and it worked flawlessy... so the built-in AOD (& night clock) lights the whole screen, while edge feed and 3rd party AOD don't. Confusing.
@vrblr2405 : did you try night clock or 3rd part aod? Is the problem still there?

No. This is not an LCD, it's an AMOLED. This is an S7 Edge that I bought two weeks ago. Haven't changed the display or anything like that.

This is the native AOD that comes preinstalled. Version 1.4.02. I've noticed that the edge clock also lights up the whole screen. Could you tell me which third party AOD app to use ? That way I can check and identify if it is a display problem or a software issue.
Try a fresh ODIN install of latest stock firmware
vrblr2405: I used (well, tried) Always on Screen by FayaX. Just make sure you disable the built-in AOD first and give the app the permissions it's asking for. Could you also check if the edge feed is working properly and doesn't lit up the screen? You know, the rubbin' thingy If those two work properly, I'm certain we are facing the same issue
@amritpal2489 : flashing stock didn't help on my situation, but of course it's always good to try.. I've been going through different (stock)firmwares now, just to see if something would change. No luck so far, downloading third one now.
Is there more to reset than the 4 files (AP, BL, CP, CSC)? How's the re-partition in Odin?
I'm unrooted, so I'll stick with stock fw's, but I'm wondering if there is something that's not "resetting" or if I can do something more to get to start every bit and piece from scratch.
Don't even think about re-partitioning in ODIN.. Its not required.
Moreover if you have already flashed stock firmware using ODIN then it is surely a hardware fault buddy. Get it checked at authorised service centre even if it is out of warranty. They will let you know the exact issue. Getting it repaired through them is your choice finally.
Yeah I guess that's what I need to do. Luckily there is a Samsung Service Center nearby.
I just can't understand why would the exactly same function work on a different app if it's hardware related. That's the reason I'm baffled with things to try to get it working.
@vrblr2405, let me know how it works out and share your thoughts, thanks!

So I downloaded the app you said. The AOD works fine with that app. I tried a couple of other third party AOD apps. The AOD works fine - only the pixels for the clock light up. So it seems to be a software issue with the Samsung AOD.
I tried the edge feeds and it works fine. No lighting up the entire screen. The entire screen being lit up happens only with the preinstalled aod apparently.
I don't intend to root my phone at least till the warranty is valid, so sticking with the original Samsung software. Will go to a service center get this checked.

Which is the default AOD clock?
Just a dumb thought. Wondering if the clock type might make difference. The default one is just a simple white one. Image attached.

I thought so too initially. Tried with all the different clock faces. Entire screen still lights up.
Weird. Have you ever rooted the device or is rooted right now?
I am currently using XPerience-11.1.2-20171004 with OpenGapps and Magisk installed.
After a while the symbols/colours which are shown in the statusbar, can be seen in the navigationbar.
This started a while ago (round about 1 month) and happens on every Rom for me.
Examples are attached under the post. If somebody has the same problem or has a solution i would be very grateful!
try caliberating your display there are a plenty of apps for that
or your display might have been damaged
or you can also try removing the display and again putting back this can fix the problem
I just calibrated my display with an app. But the pixel glitch still happens. How can this be a hardware issue?

check if the glitch exists while in recovery mode
i am also a newbie
Maybe the headache is from amoled flickering. I used two samsung amoleds before (s6 and a5) and had no issues with those. But after switching to mi 9T for 1 week i am getting headache.
I have seen some xiaomi phones have the options of dc dimming/ anti flickering mode under the display option. That might help but i cant find that on my phone. I am running MIUI Global 10.3.11
Same problem with my k20pro
Guys, I`m either with a sensitive sight.
I managed the problem by using OLED Saver app.
It is a bit tricky to setup with the settings, but once calibrated to your sense of light from the phone...
Recommend it.
In addition try to change the colour of the screen via phone menu by your sense, here is mine, a bit changed:
Hi!
Got myself OnePlus 8 Pro but blacks are not deep enough and there's weird green tint on low brightness..
Isn't it supposed to be the best display ever put on mobile?
Can anyone confirms that after RMA \ replacement the issue got resolved?

Does it happen when you're browsing internet with chrome or not ? Because I experienced a tinted screen too, but only when browsing. Turned out it was a chrome bug, but it wasn't really green, more yellow-ish.
I think there was a post on the OP8 forum, that asked the same thing as you (low light green tint). If it's not chrome, consider searching on the Q'n'A section of the OP8 forums (at XDA, not OP Forums)

Hey, I have been experiencing the same problem lately. While visiting some websites I experience a yellowish tint as well. Some things I observed were, it only happens when I scroll down past a certain limit, and the tint goes away when I scroll back up again. It mostly occurs in facebook and xda. It started like 3-4 days ago, and I updated to the latest firmware around 10 days ago so no major changes could trigger it. Rebooting or resetting does not help

Yep, that a chrome bug, they will iron it out eventually, don't worry, that's not coming from your device
Right, it's the Chrome bug...
Well it happens only when the brightness is low and it's happens when even not using the browser..
Update:
I had to fully factory reset my device + wiped caching from recovery mode on the setup it asked me to restore the settings i had before i declined and started from defaults, the green tint is fully gone!
