Last night, I was doing some reading on my phone, and I followed Google Play Books recommendation to turn on the blue light filter.
I finished reading, and immediately turned off my phone. This morning I turned the phone back and and saw the blue light filter still active, which I expected. I went into settings and turned it off.
In settings it says the blue light filter is off, however it definitely isn't. I tried turning it back on again and it applied another filter over the preexisting one. I tried restarting the phone but it's still the same.
I am running stock Android 8.0.0.
Any help is appreciated.
Solution: It was caused by Google Play Books night light setting. Apparently it effects your entire phone. Go into a book, and tap on formatting settings. Then click nightlight and turn it off.

Hey there,
I just got my N5 a few days ago and I have noticed that when the screen is off, it actually is not. It's not off like in I turned the phone off, but off as in it's black but there seems to be some light still coming through. Pretty much like having a all black picture being displayed or when the Google bootlogo comes on, that kinda black. I am running Purity and Franco Kernel but I don't think that would have any cause into it.
I have tried rebooting multiple times, turned off hot word detection but still seems to be present.
I'm sure this isn't normal but if someone could suggest any solution, that would be great.
EDIT: OK, actually I figured it out just mere moments after posting this. It was an option in Lightflow to control the backlight while screen off. It was checked on.... derp. Also, there was an option in trickster for led control and I toggled that and saved and it turned the screen completely off now. Leaving this up for a helpful hint if anyone else experiences this type of issue
I have this problem: I use AcDisplay as lockscreen since I bought my M2 (like 2 week ago), and I have activated the option of "Active lockscreen" (automatically turn on the screen when I take my cell of my pocket). Everything was fine until last night, when I took my cellphone out of my pocket while the screen was off and I discover that it was some kind of red light next to the LED notification light of the phone. I tried rebooting the cell twice but the problem persisted. The only way I found to solve it was to turn off the option of "Active lockscreen" of AcDisplay, but I think it was something very useful and I want to have it back (without the red light of course).
Do you know how to solve this?
The red light you saw was proximity sensor. AcDisplay use proximity to make active lock screen works. So, it's normal.
Help! I have a D800 and I woke up in the middle of the night to a blinding light coming from the phone's LED. It's fading to blue from green and then back and its not stopping. There was a amber alert which I've since deleted but the light is not stopping. I've turned off notifications for amber alerts and turned off the LED entirely but it's still not stopping. I have rebooted the phone 3 times. There are no notifications whatsoever now but regardless if the screen is off or not the light is constantly flashing. I called att and of course they have no clue.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Seems like the LED is bothering you. Could be some firmware app update ? Try powering it off ? Or let the battery completely drain and see if it fixes. Never came across anything like it so i am just giving you some things you could try.
I’ve turned on developer options and turned night mode to “always on”, but have found every time I turn back to it, it’s switched to “always off”. Seems rebooting the phone flips it to off. Anyone else run into this? Thoughts on a fix? I have display on dark theme and messages on dark theme.
Side note, I also can’t get discover to go to dark theme.
Quite frustrating...
Hey,
So my first pixel 3 got rmad due to the bottom speaker dieing and i received a new one. But this pixels automatic brightness keeps doing weird stuff turning dark sometimes out of its own. So I turned it off, but the phone keeps turning it back on again. Causing the screen to go automatically go dark again.
Any help?
