Does anyone know what I need to do on my phone screen sudden change on the yellowish screen but my blue light filter is off. It's happened to me the last couple of months sudden yellowish screen, I just waited for a few hours it will turn back to normal color but now it's been 2days my screen has not turned back to normal colored and flickered sometimes. I just already changed the brightness even the screen mode colored there is nothing changed.

It's a Software issue ... , don't worry abt it, they might fix it in the next update. what u can do is turn on Always On Display and tap once to view Always on display after that unlock ur mob it will be a normal display but the thing is you have to repeat this step every time.

This worked! I was convinced this was a hardware problem. (well, it could still be a coincidence but...)

I did just what you said:

1. Turn on Always On Display

- mine was already on so I toggled it off and back on again

2. Lock phone

3. Tap once on the screen to bring up the clock

Instantly the screen looked blue now - I got so used to the yellow green tint that it took a few seconds to realize it was actually back to normal.

4. Unlock phone as usual.

One other thing to note - this happens almost exclusively when I lock and then immediately unlock the device. Sometimes it goes away by itself after locking it again, waiting a few seconds and unlocking it.

This time it didn't go away so I went looking for solutions like yours. I hope this wasn't a coincidence and that it was indeed your recommendation that fixed it.

Thanks for your input regardless.

Same as my Note9. It seems a known issue with all AMOLED displays of higher end Galaxy Series mobile phones. It's not due to software updates or application interference. It's all hardware issue.

Overtime, due to excessive usage, or long exposure to heat, Samsung's AMOLED components degrades and returns with a tinted display. Eventually, the display will black out and dies, and you're out of warranty.

And repair costs almost 50% to 100% of the value of your phone in the 2nd hand market.

So, say your thanks to Samsung!

Hey. In case anyone is looking for a workaround a user in these comments figured it out. Here is their solution:

1. Toggle "Always On Display" off and then back on. Or just turn it on.

2. Lock your Note 10

3. Tap ONLY ONCE on the screen to bring up the "always on display." If you tap twice or use the fingerprint scanner it will have the green/yellow tint, but ONLY TAP ONCE and it will go back to normal.

I tried this many times and whenever I tap twice or use the fingerprint scanner it ends up being yellow/green, but tap once before fully unlocking and it went back to normal every time!

SAMSUNG PLEASE FIX THIS BUG :)
