Has anyone noticed their screen occasionally looking slightly warmer (more yellow) than usual? Not sure if it's after the recent update or if its always been there..i think its the update.

Display mode - Adaptive. But I'm comparing just the notification shade.

That is probably a result of the blue light filter. It turns on automatically at 7 pm. You can change its settings in display

Thanks for your reply but its not that. I checked.
Do you notice it in certain apps? There's also a "video enhancer" feature under "Advanced features" - try turning that off to see if it changes anything.
The one other way I notice the screen temperature change is in bright light - under Brightness, you can control the "screen mode" - adaptive is default, which means it automatically switches between cool and warm depending on what you're doing and where you are (in the sun, for example). Take a look at the settings there, because you can customize it a lot.
Edit: I see you said you are on adaptive, so you probably already looked at these. Have you tried making it a set setting rather than adaptive?
Try turning off auto brightness.

So the Lumia 900 dims the screen based on white pixel percentage (for battery) like the Focus and Focus S. Is there an extra settings option to disable this like on the Focus S?
What I'm asking is if there is an 'Extra Settings' category in the settings menu with a field called auto display intensity (like on the Focus S). Thanks.
I'm not seeing it. Today starts my 30-day trial to see if it can pull me away from my investment into Android and my HTC Desire..
I think you can just turn off the Auto brightness. There are no other display settings like on the Samsung WP7's

Yeah, the screen looks a little dim on the auto setting. Someone said that is the way AMOLED screens are. When you disable the auto and change the setting to high, it looks great. I just wonder what the effect on the battery life will be.
I recommend disabling auto-brightness and setting to medium. I personally use low indoors and medium outside. Auto-brightness should be off to save power.
The original poster is correct. Even on Bright with auto turned off, the message area is grey'ish, but white everywhere else seems fine. I went and tested it with the Focus Flash, and it had the same behavior, except when you turn off the "auto display intensity" (or words to that effect) it goes white. I think the Nokia has the exact same behavior, except that we don't have a control to turn it off. I'm keeping my screen on bright to alleviate this, and I know it's hurting the battery to do so.

Auto brightness = dims based only on the ambient light sensor. Auto display intensity = dims based on % of white pixels on the screen.

Do you know of a way to switch the Auto Display Intensity?
Is there a fix to this? I got my Lumia today and when I opened the browser and loaded Google it seemed very dim. Even if you change the background of the phone to white instead of black, it looks almost grey and dimmer than some of the other whites on the phone. Is it a bug? Should I replace the phone for another one, or are they all like this?

"Feature" not a bug. Samsung presumably provides Nokia the AMOLED panel which has it programmed into the firmware. Samsung modified WP7 on the Focus S to let you disable it.
My Xperia ZL keeps dimming its screen automatically every time when the phone gets warm, it's very annoying since it happens on my previous Xperia S as well, I can't find "Auto Adjust Screen Tone" setting or check box in display settings.
How can or can I disable the Auto Adjust Screen Tone on my ZL?
As far I'm aware, It's in the Display>Brightness setting, and turn off "Adapt to lightning conditions".

There should be two different settings on android, Adapt to lightning conditions n Auto adjust screen tone.

Did anyone see this new bug with new update ??the screen turns off before 30sec of inactivity

There are two factors that automatically adjust screen brightness.
First is based on ambient light. It will set backlight brighter if you are in brighter place, and dim it if you move to dark. It could be controlled or even disabled in "display" settings menu.
Second one is "dynamic contrast". It sets brightness of backlight based on currently displayed image. For example "dull", low contrast image will have backlight reduced to save power, while image with more contrast will have brighter backlight. This can't be switched off or controlled by any apps, from what I know even custom ROMs still have it on, probably it's hardware-controlled.
Updated to 8.0.0, it was fine, some apps (like Waze) got forced close quite often so I did a cache clear (in Recovery Mode). Now the display color is totally washed out, especially starting from 50% brightness. Any idea the reason could be? THanks
Oh, and I notice that if I go to Display Setting - Screen Mode - Adaptive Display - Advance options, what ever I do with the 3 channels (Red, Green, Blue), the display color doesn't change a bit
On Nougat there is a Display setting called "Screen mode". Does it still exist on 8.0, and if so, maybe it has changed due to the cache clearing?
Edit: Did not read post properly, sorry. Although, have you tried to change between the different screen modes?
Clock... etc... on AOD I see wrong. There is little brightness. Both when. Sometimes small brightness, sometimes more brightness. Why? My Adaptive Brightness is Off ...
On YouTube video, I can see (Galaxy S9) settings (brightness) by tapping the clock. It doesn't work for me. I have a new "A50" and I don't like this.
Do you know an application that solves this (brightness, font size)?
Thanks a lot...
(Samsung Galaxy A50, SM-A505FN/DS, A505FNXXU1ASBG/A505FNOXM1ASBG/A505FXXU1ASBB)
I am not sure but you understand it in the wrong way.
AOD may be set in 2 modes:
-always on
-on upon screen tap ( so maybe this is what you saw on S9 video)
There is no setting how bright it is - just factory default
BTW if you could set the brightness up it will eat battery like hell
Yes-I have the "show always " mode turned on. On YT video I see "Brightness adjustment". I do not see this function on "A50"... Apparently I have a different version of "AOD ".
EDIT: + The clock color sometimes changes spontaneously. And the brightness is sometimes smaller, at other times the brightness is larger...
EDIT2: I Found that in daylight AOD shines a lot. There is little light In the darkness. This dependency cannot be manually set. Never mind. That's O.K.
I just got the A50 and have the same issues. The always on display - when set to "show always" is bright enough when in a well lit area, but when theres not enough light its too dim. It changes brightness level automatically. I have the adaptive brightness turned off. I have tried various setting and still the same result. I have the S10e and there is a setting to adjust the brightness level on the AOD, but it appears to be absent on my A50. I have also noted that the latest version on my A50 (AOD) is 4.2.51.3 and on my s10e it is 5.1.38.3. Should it be the same on both devices ? Any advice would be appreciated.
AOD uses adaptive brightness but its frequency is a lot less than normal usage.

I'm quite sure that is the intended behaviour for the AOD (automatic color and brightness changes throughout the day) to avoid burning the AMOLED panel.
In fact, even though modern OLED displays have improved its durability a lot, it's still not recommended to keep the screen on at all times in the same spot, especially under the sun.
Can anyone tell me the latest version of their AOD on the A50 - it is under settings under AOD - About Always On Display - that will tell you the latest version installed.

5.1.39.6 - Android 10 Indian version
So this morning I got my oneplus 9pro, and things were all fine until evening. i didnt enable, reading mode, comfort vision, nightlight etc but the display started to look warmer with whites having a reddish tint. I tried to use Advanced mode in color calibration and turned down the tone to cool and green. but the always on display AOD still shows the white text with reddish tint and as soon as I unlock the device I can see the display changing back to my cooler settings from warm. I took screenshot of a white blank page from DOCs app and it was yellow in my device but as soon as I sent it to my friend in whatsapp it was all white. Searched the internet for everything and still cant seem to figure out the solution. iF its a hardware or software issue. I tried color inversion, wipe cache, color correction, reset device everything. PLEASE HELP
it is most likely the comfort tone. deactivate the slide
Yup definitely comfort tone

I mentioned it fellas. No comfort tone nothing the screen is totally warm. Even if I set it to coolest settings I can see the yellowish white when scrolling. Especially in AOD it gets worse. Is this hardware or a software problem?
