Adaptive Display changing white points in different light.

Hey guys, I was using my phone browsing the web when suddenly the white point changed! The screen turned slightly purple and I think it is due to Samsung's adaptive display and my purple LIFX bulbs.
Here is a video link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ujVIFA5LESQ

Screen problem ? Need help

Hello. I would like to share my problem with you. I own a galaxy s8 +, like many of you)
And I was faced with this fact. When I put a dark or black background on the main screen of my smartphone, I get a visible light at the top of the screen. It can be seen clearly in a dark room. Below I will attach a screenshot. But that's the thing, this light is only visible on the main home screen. In the screen verification app, on a black background, I do not observe this problem.
I want to say that the light at the top of the screen is only observed on the main screen of the phone. When viewing images or elsewhere this is not observed
What can be wrong ??

grey lines at top of the screen with pure black wallpaper

So recently i started to notice that in my home screen (touchwiz or other launchers) at the top of the screen there is some grey lines it is best visible if i use a black wallpaper and set the brightness to the maximum. This doesn't show anywhere except on the home screen. I tried other wallpapers, and if i look at it in the gallery or turn on ultra power saving mode there is no grey lines.(my device is galaxy s6)
Does anyone know what it is? Or how to fix it?
(i hope you guys can understand me sry for my english)
So, if you switch to your pictures and images gallery, the lines disappear?
Did you drop your device on the floor or did it incurred any damages lately?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
It's a common issue. It's stupid Touchwiz/Samsung system which creates a small overlay at the top of Homescreens (any launchers) & lockscreens. In gallery etc, it's perfectly black since no overlay.
I don't think there is a fix. U can use a slightly greyish instead of full black wallpaper. It's not a big problem though
Oh i understand. Thank you for help. I was thought my phone has a problem.
Sometimes the grey lines can appear in Samsung mobiles if you use a bad launcher or a theme which is not compatible with the phone. You can try updating to a new version and see if fixes the problem, or use a light gray wallpaper as already suggested. Another couple of things to try... take a screenshot of your phone and test it on your laptop to see if the lines are still there. If not then it could be a problem with the screen itself. It's also worth restarting your phone in Safe Mode as this mode only runs with pre-installed apps. If you don't see the lines then an app could be your culprit

Pixel 3 Screen issue

Hello guys, I have the pixel 3 since 3 days now and I noticed a day later that my screen isn't showing off the same colors from the top to the bottom. On top it's more vibrant and more warmish but on the bottom at the half of the screen it's turning in some red and it's persistent on every brightness. The best I can show it to you when I turn nightlight on and turn the brightness down to maybe 10-20% then u see it clearly. Did anyone else noticed it? Or is it just on me? thanks in advance
Hi - did you check to see if the app is perhaps transparent and reflecting your wallpaper? What app are we looking at in your example? Do you experience the same look in Chrome?

Question about possible screen issue

Guys, I have a LG Velvet and I think I might have a screen issue. At least I haven't noticed it before so I hope any of you guys with a Velvet can help me figure it out.
I know Velvet has a really bright screen, way more than my previous G8x.
But is it me or blacks aren't that black? I think I get more grey or a slight black than a real dark images.
I know Velvet has a translucent notification bar too, but have anyone noticed getting a greyish/greenish kind of stain when having a black content behind the notification bar?
It's something that really bothers me.
It happens when I pull the notification bar while watching a movie, or while in Settings and even with a dark black wallpaper.
I don't know anyone here in my country that has a Velvet, so I thought about asking here.
I might record the screen so I can show it better.
Thanks in advance!
