I'm wondering if it's possible and/or if anyone has a way of changing the colour of the LED's under the touch keys on the Galaxy S4.

Notification LED is multicolor
Touchkey could be colored different by changing the hardware --> what means NO :crying:

As LS.xD said, changing the colour of touch keys is not possible
If you want to change led's color use Light flow light, get it from play store for free
This is your best bet!
I just got my phone back from the repair shop, they were replacing my front glass. When getting my phone back the man told me he made some 'goofs', one of which was actually a wire pleasant surprise! He forgot to take some sort of film off the back of the button portion of the glass, and it ended up turning my buttons blue! Although dimmer, this setup may be what you're looking for. Get your glass replaced and ask them to leave the film intact on the back of the button section (get the top one removed so it won't interfere with the notification light). Good luck!
I've got to the conclusion that my S6 have some screen glass 'problems'. Whenever i tilt it the colors change a little, from that yellowish white it goes to some blue accent; and also the botton of the screen is more white then the top. This is very noticeable indoor with brightness on auto, at the outside i don't really notice some of these 'problems'... I know that all of these things are specific to the amoled category but sometime it's irritating.
I've send an email to the carrier from i bought the phone and they told that the phone will be send in service; and replacement its not possible(i have bought the phone online).
My question to you, should i send the phone to the service ? I mean, it is two weeks old.. will it be the same after a screen replacement ?
I'm knox tripped also but i think this it's not gonna be a problem since it's a hardware issue.
Thanks for your time.

If you're knox tripped, then good luck. You still have warranty (in EU at least) but got to fight for it.
I got pink dots all over my front camera (getting worse and worse) and Samsung say the reason of the pink dots is cause of root, even tho there is documentation for it being a hardware issue on SG6.
So well, if Samsung can get you to pay for the repair in any way, they will.
I wouldn't bother. A repair will come back the same or worse.
Colour shift is normal but still one hundred million times better than any LCD. The white balance is AMOLED all the way and they ALL do it (on S6 and note 4).
I would learn to live with it.
Good day fellow mates,i have s6 G920L 1month old,stock firmware rooted,and arter kernel,that is my info for phone,yesterday i go out then i open my phone and browsing to it and the sun is very bright so the sensor will be its highest brightness peak,i notice a gray lines in my s6 screen,not to much visible unless you look closely and when the light from the sun is very bright you notice it when you have white wallpaper or background, it is actually a squared shape near the side and near the top of the screen,i notice also the brightness in auto when in strong sunlight the brightness is very very bright so my concern is is this a defective lcd s6? I repeat to clear the situation,it its slightly noticeable only when outside and the strong sunlight is infront of s6 sensor or s6 lcd screen and when its in auto brightness,forgive me guys i dont have a camera to show some samples,thanks just needed advice or comment,and by the way i dont have warranty anymore

This is probably a defect LCD. I advice you to check your KNOX counter. If this is still on 0 you should try your warranty even though you think you don't have warranty anymore. Otherwise you should let it be repaired at a samsung store or send it back for repair. This is the only solution to this kind of problems
Hmm

I bought this phone 2ndhand and no warranty and also i already triggered knox,my issue is not much visible,unless you look closely and in direct strong sunlight,maybe i will.have to look for other cellphone shop because in samsung it will cost more
I did a search but, didn't find my EXACT problem.
I have a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S6, Everything seems to work but, there is a black screen. You can hear the touch screen working and all the buttons seem to respond to touch (hearing things happen). The phone is in perfect shape and looks brand new so It was not dropped or anything.
Is there a "software" way to recover this phone, or should I just sell it off for parts ?
Thanks in advance !
Hey. Do u also have problem with sgs8/8+ and their red screen or even pink ??
On the internet i can see that many clients has this problem and samsung says that "this must be like it is"... so ?
Do we have #PinkGate??
My samsung have also redish whole screen.
Nothing ? No one ?
Yeah, i returned mine. Top half of screen was red. Bottom half was green. Any screen mode other than adaptive just made it worse.
Dud u get new one without this crap ? Or u just wanna cash back ??
I've exchanged 4 with my cell provider before getting a perfect one
Was just about to post a similar topic, think I'm going to be taking this one back today, my first one had a red hue down the sides and this one appears to have a pink lower half that I am trying to live with but cannot...
My first one was perfect but it had broken speaker. Then had to try another two to finally get acceptable one. Not perfect, it goes pink-ish on specific angle, but it's not that bad. I really suggest to buy those phones in store so you can check it and save yourself some time.
this problem was addressed and fixed by an update as far as i know...

It's a hardware problem, so it can't be fixed by software. All the update did was allow you to mess with the RGB sliders and it's only available in the "Adaptive Display" mode. This option doesn't help if your display has multiple different hues such as a top reddish hue and a bottom greenish hue. It also is in "Adaptive Display" mode which is the least colour accurate mode.
This is a well-documented issue, like anything AMOLED, there can be a lot of variation from panel to panel. You should be able to go to the retailer and swap it out.

So it was just another"marketing stunt" by samsung.mine doesn't have it but reading about it when I first got my s8+,thought it was a software problem.thanks for the clarification
On my third S8+ due to pink hues on the display. My fourth should be delivered on Monday. Fingers crossed that it has a good screen and won't have to be exchanged.

In my opinion, this is ridiculus - cuz this phone costs really a lot of money and samsung dont give a **** about customers and samsungs problem with screen. Samsung is mocking to telling us that "update" will solve "your" Problem.
Im from Poland and here samsung store says "its a advantage of this PRODUCT"...... crapy telling
My device has a pretty messed up display, to the point where the software controls that Samsung has added are just enough to solve the problem. I have the cool / warm slider all the way to the right (warm), because this cancels out the green tint a bit. From advanced settings I have the green slider at about 20%, the red slider at about 80%, and the blue slider at 100%.
And because this wasn't enough, the display has a warm glow at the edges. Thankfully, Samsung has a software solution for this, and it works by adding a cool tint at the edges to counter-act the warm tint. But this solution isn't perfect, as the warm tint disappears when the display is looked at in an angle, and the blue software-added tint becomes visible.
I haven't returned my device because the problem is fully solvable through software, although I am a bit disappointed that a phone that cost over $900 has problems that the user has to put effort in to solve.
Had to go through 4 phones from my carrier before getting a perfect screen even tilting the phone I have no red and in any display mode no red or pink at all... there should not be a bandaid fix for a 900$ phone... having to adjust settings is gonna hurt resale value also

It's not "fully" solvable through software. The appearance of the display changes when tilted, just as you said. I'm really hopeful that the replacement I receive via UPS tomorrow has a quality display. Even after playing with the advanced display settings on and off for days, I cannot get rid of the heavy pink tint at the bottom of my current (3rd) phone's display. It's a real shame.
Well, my fourth device arrived today and it's basically as bad as all of the others. This time it has an even pink tint along every edge of the display. This is getting old. I really hope that this issue doesn't carry over to the Note 8.
I went through 4 Nexus 6Ps to find one that had an even screen tone. This is a problem faced by all AMOLED screen. My S8+ isnt the best but it's not that bad either.

I've had the Galaxy SIII, two S4's, S5, Note 4, two Note Edges, two Note 5's, S7, two S7 Edge's, three Note 7's, three Gear Fit2's, two Gear S3's and four S8+'s. All AMOLED displays.
The ONLY one with which I've had problems is the S8+. This is NOT a problem with ALL AMOLED displays. This is clearly a manufacturing defect with the S8, as can be evidenced by Samsung's OTA that adds "corrective" features to the advanced display settings. Please don't try to make excuses for them.

I agree it's bad and shouldn't be happening and my S8 screen isn't entirely uniform but as I said, the 6Ps I had and Nexus 6 was terrible for it too.

Mine had a slight pinkish tint to the bottom of it, but i dialed *#15987# on the phone and then pressed 3 to set it to -9 overall... this appears to do the trick for me.
