Its still there right out of the box. $800+ for a gorgeous Midnight black T-Mobile Galaxy S8. I swipe down the notification shade to mess with settings and I can't help, but notice the subtle, but very existent, yellowish tint on the top right 1/3rd of my display compared to the slightly reddish bottom 2/3rds.

The white background on the notification is not all white. Any solid color white or grey background and you can notice that there is a yellowish and pinkish hue in certain areas of the display. This is extremely distracting and almost nauseating when reading an article and as you read the white background starts shifting color from yellowish white to a pinkish white.

We had same issues with GS6 and GS7. PANEL LOTTERY! I had to exchange my S7 about 4-5 times in order to get a unit without Screen defects. its 2017 and the S8 has the same damn issue that we've been reporting to Samsung, they don't care because some average consumers don't notice it or assume thats just how the phone is. Well I don't take lightly to defects and anomalies when I'm paying this much. Its very annoying that this SUPER AMOLED display attached to a near $1k price tag lacks the quality assurance it should have. it can't even display a full even white or grey screen.

Time to exchange and make a youtube video about it I suppose. I'll post pictures when I get home from work.

As frustrating as it is its still a very new device to the market all different manufacturers be it a mobile device or something else the first run will always have a 50/50 chance of issues its bound to happen. By no means am I be littling your post all im saying is things as annoying as this is bound to happen. I read somewhere that Samsung will be possibly issuing a software fix for this display issues but I cannot confirm for sure. Today is the official release of the device I did hear that stores are not issuing replacements just yet.

Samsung offers software update to fix red display issue

http://www.zdnet.com/video/samsung-offers-software-update-to-fix-red-display-issue/
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Johno_Jan:
This isn't a software issue trust me. It is a fault in the production of the OLED panels. This has been going on for nearly 3 years! They just don't care.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] olivierdo:
yes and the forthcoming software update fix ,the red color will be on zero exactly like if you do it yourself in the menu.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] demonwind:
If the screen is uniformly red then it can be masked with a green filter applied to the entire screen. There are 3rd party apps that can do this such as ScreenEqualizer.

Non-uniformity is a different issue altogether and can't be fixed or masked. I have it on both my S6E and my S8. The S6 release dubbed the issue "pink-gate" and it attracted much more attention but ultimately nothing was done about it.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] Levus:
I thought that after the Note 7 flop they won't risk anything like this but i can confirm that my mighty black S8+ has this defect too. Frustrating because i was unlucky with the S4 and S5 although the replaced the screen for a great on each device and after several unsuccessfull attempt but last year the S7E was absolutely flawless so i was optimistic for the S8, especially regarding the note 7, that is MUST be a flafless, highest quality product but it failed miserably.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion] dermotti:
I had these issues on my S6, N5, and N7. You cant correct a screen if the color issue is not uniform. I had to return every single phone multiple times to get an acceptable screen.

What i find is weird is, my Pixel Xl was absolutly perfect, and im pretty sure they source their screens from samsung.

[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] BarryH_GEG:
I've seen about a dozen U.S. phones and they've all been fine including mine. Obviously some folks have had a display issue. No one here knows how many out of how many phones are affected.

It's a little early for the "gate" word but it certainly does add dramatic affect.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ewokuk:
There are thousands, probably tens if not hundreds of thousands. One guy looked at about 30 display models and noted only TWO that were not affected. So far in the UK nobody I know is not affected.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] BarryH_GEG:
There were over 2M pre-orders. My sample set of 12 is as meaningless as your sample set of 100. Hope your YouTube video makes you lots of money.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] ewokuk:
What sample set of 100? And I don't even use youtube.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] maidguitar:
They're not literally saying that you have seen 100 phones, they're just saying that people's personal anecdotes of having seen even up to hundreds of phones (thirty, in the case of the other xda member in the red tint thread) is meaningless because the sample size is too small relative to millions of GS8's worldwide.

[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] Ericthedog2:
Since getting the B383 update on my EVA-L09, which runs smoothly and quickly with pretty decent battery life, something peculiar is happening and not all the time. My notification sounds, mainly my twitter notifications, pretty much work but every now and again it will not sound, I get the vibration to notify me, or only make half a sound. Does anyone else have this issue?
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] SideSkroll:
No, but I get something SIMILAR but even stranger. Sometimes, if I'm say, replying to a message and another one from a different conversations comes in, or an alarm goes off or SOMETHING that is supposed to play a different tone happens my ringtone starts playing. And there's no way to stop it so I either have to wait for it to finish, or reboot the phone.
[Huawei P9 Questions & Answers] Ericthedog2:
Very strange indeed. Contemplating a factory reset to be honest.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crimsonchain:
So here is the thing, i flashed LineageOS and rooted my device. When i tried to uninstall a substratum theme and i rebooted, the phone is stuck in the boot screen. I can get into bootloader mode. When i try to get into Custom Recovery mode, the Google logo comes up, and again it is stuck in the boot screen. I just need to get into recovery mode somehow ,so i can restore using the backup i have. Help Me.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ChromeJob:
Which recovery were you using? If it's not booting at all, I'd flash TWRP to the recovery partition with whatever tool you use.

If using SDK tools, 'fastboot flash recovery [custom recovery image file]' will do it from the command line.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Crimsonchain:
OK i got inside twrp using adb and then restored my device. Its working fine. The problem now is i cant boot into recovery mode via bootloader mode. If i click the recovery mode it boots into OS.

So now im little scared to flash again to Lineage OS using bootloader mode. So what should i do to solve this problem and get into recovery mode without using ADB.

[OnePlus 3T Themes, Apps, and Mods] Anova's Origin:
OnePlus seems to have enabled aptX codecs in the new OB5/14 for the OnePlus 3/T.

For those of you who don't want to wait until the stable release and also would rather not flash the open beta, [MENTION=3440322]Chaosgod27[/MENTION] has extracted the related files for use in the stable release. These files can be placed within OOS 4.1.X to enable aptX mode. These files are different from the old aptX-enabling files that were broken in OOS since updating to 7.1.1.

Edit: It seems there's some issues with the stacks. Playback does use aptX, but music is playing at a slightly higher pitch and faster than it should be.

I've dug around through the files in the new open beta and found the files myself. It seems there were a few missing before. The issue with the raised pitch and fast playback should be gone now.

Flashable Zip (through custom recovery, does not require Magisk): View attachment 4121507

[OnePlus 3T Themes, Apps, and Mods] Anova's Origin:
There was an issue before with some missing files that caused playback to run too fast and with a higher pitch. That has been fixed now. If anyone flashed the old Magisk module, I would advise you to download the new one in the OP and flash over it. I've also included a flashable zip for those of you who aren't using Magisk.

[OnePlus 3T Themes, Apps, and Mods] xclub_101:
Thank you, I have installed it but it seems to have a lot more problems (noise/cracking as in packets lost or something) than the previous version that I was using and which I got from here:

https://xdaforums.com/oneplus-3/themes/mod-aptx-codec-t3521228

Is there any way to uninstall this version and return to "old default" (from where I can get back to the aptx version from above)?
[OnePlus 3T Themes, Apps, and Mods] Anova's Origin:
If you used the Magisk module, simply delete the module and reboot.

If you flashed the regular zip, you'll have to dirty flash your ROM to restore to default.

Hi [MENTION=8043063]Anova's Origin[/MENTION], how do i know if this mod is working or not?
[OnePlus 3T Themes, Apps, and Mods] Sam Nakamura:
Use a logcat app (Catlog / Matlog) and search for an aptx entry in the recorded logs after you connected your aptx capable device via Bluetooth to your aptx enabled phone...

You should be able to find something if it's working, otherwise it wouldn't show any aptx entry

Edit 2: Nevermind, it's working now. Idk what the problem was.

Didn't work for me on OOS 4.1.6 on Oneplus 3T :( I can't turn on Bluetooth. Anyone else having this problem? Also, have the drivers been updated in a newer OB?

[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] Zarou:
Hey everyone ! :)

I have a rooted Honor 5C NEM-L51 (European variant) with TWRP custom recovery and, as some of you may know, Nougat update is now available to download using Huawei Firware Finder.

However, a stock recovery is needed in order to get OTA updates and since I couldn't find a stock recovery image by browsing the web, I decided to go back to a full stock ROM.

So I tried to do this the usual way : creating a dload folder, placing the update.app file in it, powering off the phone and back on by pressing simultaneously the volume up, down and power button... but this always lead me right to TWRP, no matter how many times I tried. I restored my phone from soft brick using this method about two months ago with no issue, but now I can't get it to work, even if I release the power button once the phone boots or do any other shady manipulation. Could this have anything to do with the latest TWRP update ?

I also tried to do the "Power on method" by dialing " *#*#2846579#*#*" to go to the project menu and flash the file from here, but it rebooted to TWRP...

I'm at a complete loss here. Can anyone please help me with this ?
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] thelous:
just install recovery img and other needed image files from stock firmware thru adb....
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] Zarou:
Thank you for answering. The problem is, I don't know where to find stock recovery image, all I can find with Huawei Firmware Finder is the full stock ROM. Browsing the web didn't help so far.

Can I flash the whole ROM through ADB ?
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] Shubho20:
Extract the update.app of full stock rom using huawei update extractor. There u will find recovery.img. Extract it and flash using fastboot.
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] Zarou:
I did that and then tried to install the update through the dialer. It rebooted and I'm stuck on "Your device is booting now..." screen. Can't even turn it off, it reboot automatically to this screen. Seems like there is no recovery at all and it tried to do the update through this inexistant recovery no matter how many times it reboot...

What can I do now ?
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] Shubho20:
Don't do it through the dialer. After flashing the stock recovery, just restart and then try the three button configuration(volume up + volume down + power)
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] Zarou:
I can't. I am stuck on the "Your device is booting now..." screen. If I turn it off, it automatically turns on again to this screen.

Edit : Nevermind, looks like I didn't press the button correctly. Only the recovery was missing, I finally could boot to system by pressing the power button. Then I reinstalled TWRP with ADB and restored my nandroid backup. Back to the start...

I may have a hint about what went wrong. Extracting the Nougat UPDATE.APP file gave me two recovery files : recovery.img and recovery2.img. I only flashed the first. Any idea why there were two of them ? I am going to try with the FULLOTA-MF file (tried with the FULLOTA-MF-PV file before), or maybe should I try to extract files from the previous update ?

EDIT 2 : Still stuck with TWRP. I extracted several UPDATE.APP files and all have two RECOVERY.IMG files. I tried flashing them both, one after another and then reboot to erecovery, but TWRP is still here. How can I get rid of it and get back to stock recovery please ?
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] Shubho20:
I have flashed several times Twrp recovery on my honor 5c, and i didn't even had to flash the stock recovery to get back to stock rom. I had placed the dload folder with full update in it, and used the 3 button method to flash the full rom. And i was once again in full stock including recovery. Try this. If it doesn't help, just flash the stock recovery. Then type fastboot reboot, let it boot. Then power it off. Now press volume up + power button. Just see which recovery it boots.
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] Zarou:
As I said, the three buttons method is not working and boot right into TWRP.

Which stock recovery ? There are two of them. Anyway, I tried this again, it led me back to the endless "Your device is booting now..." screen.
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] Zarou:
Okay, trouble's gone real now. I tried to flash the boot image from the update using fastboot. Now I'm stuck in "Your device is booting now..." no matter what I do...
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] Shubho20:
Try the volume up + power button. Just see it's booting into recovery or not
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] Zarou:
Worked. But guess what ? In TWRP. ><

But at least I can restore my system... Still, I don't understand this whole situation, why is TWRP always coming back ? I'd really like to get to flash this OTA update...
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] Shubho20:
Tell me the whole process what u r doing.
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] Zarou:
Well, I tried with or without uninstalling SuperSU which has an option to try to restore stuck boot and recovery images (which didn't work in my case).

I used adb to reboot into bootloader, from where I flashed either RECOVERY.IMG or RECOVERY.IMG and then RECOVERY2.IMG which I got from Huawei Update Extractor and reboot from fastboot. Then I tried to power off and back on my device by pressing volumes up and power button which led me to TWRP or endless booting screen. Flashing boot image from Update file gave me the same result.
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] Shubho20:
Okay. What rom u r in now? And which twrp r u using?
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] Zarou:
Official stock ROM with TWRP 3.1.0.0.
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] Shubho20:
Emui version?
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] Zarou:
4.1.2.
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] Shubho20:
Flash the meticulus twrp. Then repeat the dload process. See if that helps.
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] Zarou:
Did that. I even flashed the previous version of the official TWRP beforehand. Still nothing. I even wiped everything from TWRP except internal storage and external SD card and still, the three buttons method led me right back to Meticulus TWRP.

However, I did notice something very strange. If I boot normally by pressing the power button and then, on the "Your device has been unlocked and can't be trusted" screen, press the volume up button to "boot into erecovery to restore my device", it boots into... official TWRP 3.1.0.0 !!! What the hell ?!

Do you have any idea ? This whole situation is so weird...

EDIT : This is just complete nonsense. I even wiped the internal storage and this abomination of TWRP 3.1.0.0 was still there. I really am at a complete loss here. ><
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] Rhumaddict:
Power cord

Hi

Just a hint I remembered from a past experience with my Honor 5C : recovery process was different if Power Cord was connected or not.

Maybe it's worth a try....
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] Zarou:
Thanks for trying to help. Unfortunately, I just tried to fo the three buttons process with the power cord plugged, but with no luck.

What's really weird is that it seems I have two TWRP installed. One has my settings and the language set and the other still has default settings. I boot into the first one by using TWRP app or Titanium Backup to reboot into recovery and into the second one by doing the three buttons process or pressing up to "enter erecovery" after the phone booted.

It is like I have a second TWRP which overwrited the custom recovery and stay here, I don't know how to get rid of it...
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] SkaldfraNorden:
I had similar problem yesterday...

Extract both recovery.img and recovery2.img from your CURRENT rom (B132, I presume) and flash BOTH with fastboot

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

fastboot flash recovery2 recovery2.img

Then you'll get rid of TWRP and you should be able to update to B350/351 through Updater of Firmware Finder
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] Zarou:
Thank you ! That did it ! It was so simple ! I never thought I could flash two recovery files. Now I'm on 5.0. Thanks again !
[Honor 5C Questions & Answers] SkaldfraNorden:
Glad I could help :)
