Just got my GNote today. I've had a Thinkpad Tablet for almost a year, and let's just say the GNote is already making me much happier.
I opened it and applied the firmware update. I've been playing around, and have found one annoying bug: Whenever I open or select S-Note the screen changes to maximum brightness. It doesn't matter whether I am opening the app from initial, or just switching back to an open S-Note through the open task selector. The screen goes to full brightness.
But, the settings bar for brightness does not change. When I pull up the menu by tapping the clock, the brightness bar will still say it is at the lowest brightness setting. When I touch the stylus to the slider at the lowest brightness setting, the screen immediately dims.
I've tried turning "Auto" brightness on and off, and have also looked for some obscure setting in S-Note. No luck.
Anyone else having this issue, or have a solution? It sounds minor, but when working in a dim room its a real shock to the eyes every single time I open S-Note.
Thanks,
JCHP
I'm not seeing that issue running S Note here and did the update earlier today but it was through Kies with a 1GB+ file instead of over-the-air ~50MB or so file.
Update: Ok, I see the issue now when you open a note within S Note.
I noticed this also. Like if i have browser on. Then do multiscreen and choose s note, the brightness will increase dramatically. Nothing major. Just noticed that also.

Weird. This is not happening to me either. Try going into Applications and clearing S Note data and cache then reboot.

The brightness I creases after you go into s note and choose a note. If i close the note or multiscreen, the brightness goes back to how I set it. You won't see the slider change. The brightness just increases on its own at that time.
I do have the latest update Installed.
I tried it and I also got the same result. Although, the brightness change occurs only when opening a note. In the S-Note "homescreen", where you choose which note you want, the brightness is the same as the requested setting I put.

Yes-- this is my issue exactly.
The slider is what makes me think this is a bug and not a feature: It doesn't change, although the brightness does. But, if I tap the slider at the point where it is, then the screen will dim to my preferred level, and I can work in the note at that dimmed brightness... until I switch to another app and come back, at which point the brightness again changes.
Its only an issue in dim lighting. I can see me making notes in my bed at night and swearing every time the screen suddenly brightens...
I've encountered the same thing. The update must have screwed something up.

There is no change in brightness on mine when I open or close S Note.
Having the same issue
I am having the same issue as well. Has anyone called Samsung customer service or reported this issue? This is extremely annoying. It started after the update. It was working just fine before.
I am having a similar issues with my S3. I will unlock my phone and sometimes I find the screen is really bright. I go into my settings and look at the brightness slider and it's set at 60%. As soon as I tap the brightness slider and my screen re dims back to the correct brightness. Had me thinking weather or not this is a hardware or software issue.
I am 90% sure it's software in my case Still annoying.
have the same issue. In meetings it turns up and I have to waste my battery, no time to change the slider.
This issue reminds of my problems with the my Lenovo TPT when in "always on" mode.
They fixed it, but i took until the 3th update...
Tell Samsung early enough so they may fix it soon, I know how annoying and painful it can get at night, I really disliked this issue.
Same issue. Any solution.?

same issue here , i have N8000 and when I bought it comes with Germany rom but without this bug, when i Change it to the Offical United Arab Emarits i have this bug I tried to find any soulation but no way it really annoying ...... so anybody !!!!!
really annoying
Just bought the tablet today and noticed the exact issue. I also noticed the same issue and what I did to fix the problem was to select the system tray (bottom right) and remove the auto checkbox and keep the brightness to full.
Hope that helps!
same thing. s note goes to maximum brightness (same with the camera app. too). a bit annoying but still in alive =) hopefully they fix both of them.
Reported it to samsung and...
Well I complained to Samsung about this and they told me it sounded like a bad installation of the firmware, which i dont really think its the case because I've had this bug since I bought it and because many people have it too. Anyways they told me to reset to factory settings and if the problem was still there to send the tablet to some address... but I dont really want to reset factory settings because i would lose all my app data and Im not rooted as to just make a backup with Titanium...
anyway just putting out there if someone is brave enough to reset to factory settings (maybe someone who just bought it) and tell us what happens I would be grateful
Note Pro
Same issue here on note pro 12.2. Really annoying. Anybody solve this problem?
Hello everyone, much like a lot of you after updating my Edge to 5.1.1 the edge screen notifications appeared to stop working (calls still came in on the edge screen). After some trouble shooting and trial and error, I fixed my particular issue and hopefully my experience might help someone else.
All of my settings were correct, edge panel > Notifications was enabled
Under the default messaging app, Notifications > Edge Screen was enabled
I backed up all of my phone data and preformed a factory reset (much to my dismay). I also cleared the cache. After the initial setup of my phone, I started setting it up as I had it: re-installed apps, setup fingerprint lock screen, and got all of my settings back to how I liked them...and still...no notifications on the edge screen. After preforming five factory resets, I used the process of elimination and come to find out, registering a fingerprint and using the fingerprint scanner to unlock my phone caused my notifications to not show up on my edge screen. Not sure if there is some bug associated with 5.1.1, fingerprint scanner, and the edge screen, but this fixed my particular issue.
So you can't use the fingerprint scanner as well as have edge notifications?

It appears so, I can set up a pattern to unlock my phone and it works fine, but fingerprints are a no go.
That is really strange. I updated to 5.1.1 via AT&T's OTA. Everything works as it has been. However, I noticed that when clicking the home button at times, my screen remains blank or there is a delay.
I also got the update via AT&T ota.
After my trouble shooting it appeared to work just fine for a while, until my phone was rebooted again and after the reboot the edge notifications are no longer working. RIP
I stand corrected... It appears that mine isn't working either...
My edge screen now has a thin white line along the outer border after the update, also seen what seems to be some screen lag as well (Main screen black for a second or selected background image not showing behind the screen elements) done the normal troubleshooting, Reboot, battery pull, factory reset. no change.
Same issue with the notifications stopping after a reboot here. Weird how some people's phones were improved greatly by 5.1.1 and others were ruined. I didn't have any bugs in 5.0.1, so I guess im paying for it now.
For me, 5.1.1 improved my battery life a lot, but then, it broke the edge notification...

I have a bug that I can't fix on my redmi note 6 pro.
Pixels remain dead for long periods of time. For example, if I am reading a pdf and return to the home screen, transparent parts of the pdf still appear on the screen, usually at the top. These overlays change frequently, and there may occasionally be none. The darker the screen that I have open the less I notice them.
-I detected the error right after changing some settings in nova launcher, so I tried changing settings, resetting the app, trying other launchers, but the problem persists.
-Of course I tried to restart the device several times.
-If I take screenshot the overlays do not appear.
I have the Havoc ROM. I don't know if it's a problem with the ROM, the launcher or something else. Can anybody help me?

What you are experiencing is normal for Redmi phones with Tianma displays (its called screen burn-in). Even I have that problem. Well there is a fix. If your kernel supports configuring RGB like mine or say your ROM has option for RGB controls. What you can do is set RGB to 95, 95, 95 from live display option in settings.

Maybe something wrong with your display?
Are you using a custom ROM, or do you have any Magisk Modules?
If no, then it is probably a display issue.
You could try to flash the stock firmware, or factory reset.

There is definitely something wrong with your display, and I don't think you can fix it without a replacement. Sorry, but I really don't think there is anything you can do other than replacing it.
Its normal!
I thought of its normal on all device!
When i applied my custom wallpaper on lockscreen i slightly noticed its color is different from original pic so i changed pic and applied some dark wallpaper and now its fully green , it can be noticed easily!
You can remove fingerprint sensor (which i do)
Or
Use perfect wallpaper or use samsung wallpapers!
Ah okay, I never noticed that. Thanks for telling me about it!
There's nothing wrong with your display. Its a bug and a lot of ppl have it, including me. It happens with the lockscreen with inscreen fingerprint. In my case, if i rise the brightness it fixs but only for a while. Probably the next update will fix it
Hallo i think this is problem with oneui in lower Brigthness sceen show green tint on lockscreen with fingerprint and screen has buggy when call or alarm start
Hey all! I recently updated from Android 10 to Android 11 OOS 11.0.2.2 and I have a strange issue I didn't have before. On grey/blue backgrounds, the screen dims and changes color a little bit after not touching it for 4-5 seconds. I already submitted a bug report but I just wanted to see if others are having this issue. I do have a T Mobile device that's been converted to global, but again this issue wasn't present before. I can't report as to whether the issue happened on OOS updates previous because I just updated and got 11.0.2.2. I've also linked a short video here showing the issue. If you guys have any input at all, it's appreciated!
I may be having a similar issue. I am trying to view your video to see if it is the same problem. I have noticed that my color turns warm, as if the blue light filter was activated. It normally happens when I am trying to type in a field. In most situations, it happens when there is a lot of white being displayed.
I did not pay attention to the browser that I was using. It may be a Chrome issue, but that is only if we are experiencing the same thing.
Ok, so we are talking about two different things. But, your dim is very subtle, at lease as far as the camera is concerned. Does mine do the same thing? No idea. I probably never noticed.
However, are you using Adaptive Brightness or manual brightness? In my experience, OOS 11 came with a LOT of bugs. I've been getting screen orientation problems as of late, and it would lock my screen sideways depending on what I am doing. I do not use auto rotate, and I am certain that I didn't press the rotation button in the bottom right corner. Even if it showed up, it shouldn't have, as I was using my phone in portrait mode every time that bug showed up.
TL;DR: OOS 11 - YMMV.

So I have the same thing with the screen going super warm on white backgrounds too, primarily on web browsers. With the other issue it only happens with the brightness between 30-70% or so and the screen gets darker and the gamut seems to get a tad cooler but I've chalked these up to separate issues. No phone is without faults but it seems like Oneplus releases software without testing it at all.
Edit: I noticed the yellowing on Chrome, and nowhere else on the phone. Samsung internet does have the same issue
Yes, I have a slew of issues with Android 11. My problem is the fact that I like it a lot more than A10 w/OOS, sooo....I have no option but to tolerate them for the moment.
