Hello,

My phone just updated couple days ago, I think on 4/16, and since then I've been having issues with the screen giving a weird dull black when it goes into a dim mode or when the screen is switching between apps.

I noticed it heavily while watching a movie, at times the screen would be nice and crisp, but then it would go into this dull washed out mode.  

I've messed with all the brightness settings, adaptive brightness, motion smoothness, resetting cache, and a few other things.  I found these based off some searches about a green tint to the screen.

It does it in safe mode and also while the phone is booting up as its switching between the differnt logos that pop up(Samsung, ATT, back to Samsung, etc).

 

Love to hear if anyone has any other ideas to try.  I don't think there is hardware issue since it's too coincidental that it started happening right after this latest update.

Thanks for any input anyone may have

Yeah, I have a small crack in mine, but it's been there for about a year. I started thinking it may have started to be the problem, but it was right after the update so it's just much of a coincidence. I also started getting the green line that some people have been reporting.

I'm sorry to hear it's happening to you too, but at least it helps us knowing it may be a software issue.

I ended up giving up and trading in my phone. It got gradually worse and I couldn't deal with it any longer.

Same thing!
When the display is dimmed the black pixels turn hazy greenish-gray making the screen very uncontrasty and hard to read.
even on always on display of the clock.
