So im having this weird issue where everyday after 11pm until 7am the screen goes from white(vivid) to a very warm color, I looked up in the display setting and the blue filter is deactivated, and I cannot find any other setting to stop this from happening, any thoughts?
It sounds like blue light filter, if it's timed can't think of anything else. You done a restart when it happens? Do you have developer options on?
The blue filter is off, and this warm color change is stronger than the blue filter, I do have developer options on, but no option there about this
Even though the blue light filter is off, have you tried toggling it on then back off? It could just be a bug. I've had issues with the filter not coming on on my Note or my Tab S4 before.

Go to Settings - Display - Blue Light Filter.
Don't just click the toggle, click on the words "Blue Light Filter." That will open another menu. You will see there that your custom schedule is turned on.
I did that, I turned off all the options, but every day after 11 pm the color scheme change to warm colors, if active the blue filter after 11 pm the difference is ever stronger

When I have seen people complain about this issue it was the Google Ebooks App. Check and see if you have it.

They Posted ( Thank you community. This issue has been driving me nuts for several days as well but I can confirm that this fix to disable the "Night Light" setting in the google ebook works 101%. You can find it by clicking on the "Aa" and then the "Night Light" option will be displayed. Relief then ensues.
No need to do everything "automatically" for me. I can turn on the "Blue Light Filter" just fine by myself.)
I finally solved the problem, i had to download nova launcher / activities/ settings/ night light, I created the icon in the home screen and disabled the option somehow was activated and cannot be accessed via the settings

Hey,
I've searched around, haven't found a very good answer for this. I like to read ebooks at night, but the backlight on the screen remains on even if brightness is dimmed as low as possible, and it's way too much for me to be able to fall asleep. On my old phone (windows mobile), I could disable the backlight completely. I did find the setting where the backlight turns off after X seconds, but I can't find a way to manually tell the phone to always keep the backlight off.
Anyone know of an app or setting I can use to do this?
Thanks!

Use the "Screen Filter" app from the market or google play store whichever version you have. It is just what you are looking for I use it all the time.
Tried out the screen filter app last night - it's better than nothing, but it seems to work by adjusting the color temperature of the screen, so the backlight remains on. (I can tell because the 30 second backlight turn off with no activity still happens). Thanks for the suggestion. Any other ideas?
Since our screen is led there technically is no backlight I believe. So color tuning is the closest thing to dimming it. I like voodoo filter a bit more, doesn't distort colors as much to me.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA
Settings > Display > Sleep (Mine is set to 30 seconds). Before it goes to full-on sleep, you can clearly see that the backlight turns off for a few seconds, but the LEDs remain on.
Yea screen filter app is your best bet. Works well for reading/saving battery at night in emergency situation.

Screen filter app is going to be your best option. The samsung Vibrant has an OLED screen so it actually has no back light. The pixels display the color and produce the light.
I've noticed at night that my screen is redder than during the day. I've checked all my setting and the blue light filter is not on and there is no schedule set. Anyone else notice this? When I turn on my screen it will often be normal colors and then quickly shift to a red hue. If I turn on the blue light filter, it gets even redder.
I've noticed the same thing on mine. Looks like a double filter. First one maybe from native android and second one from Samsung. Can't find the setting for the former one though.
I found these settings to work well and looks great where I set them. You can try that and change to your liking in reference to your eyes.
Did you upgrade from a phone with night mode, while night mode was turned on? I saw a thread somewhere than said even though the S9 doesn't have a night mode setting, if you imported settings from a phone that had it enabled, the S9 will still trigger night mode., with no obvious way to turn it off. IIRC, he had to use ADB to change the night mode setting.
Let me see if I can find that thread again.
Edit: Here it is:

That was it. Thank you very much for that. I didn't even consider that native android night light was different from the Samsung blue light filter. Excellent work. I appreciate it.
Funny thing was I would use nightlight/blue light filter, it was just the fact that I couldn't turn it off if I wanted to.
Listing some bugs and improvements
Bugs:
1. Screenshot does not cover entire screen area
2. No smooth transition for notifications
3. Auto brightness calibration is unstable
.
.
Improvements:
1. Enable hide notch option
2. Battery percentage in status bar
.
.
headsup notification lost animation compared to third party roms like RR,AICP,OMNI.
and the statusbar icons are too crowded
Swiping down the notification bar once doesn't have a smooth animation it really bugs me!

I would rather say it is more advantage than shortcoming.
Battery percentage would be very pleasant. It's pretty much my only gripe about the phone so far.
when power button is pressed to lock the screen it first flashes red then turns off
similarly when brightness is reduced too quickly, screen has red tint and then brightness gets lowered
That must be your device. Mine has no such issues.

It's supposed to be a turn off effect/animation, the screen goes off with that 3D-movie effect. It's not a bug.

If its supposed to be a feature, then why does it only shows red tint where the screen is white?
My uncle also has the same phone, i didn't notice this happening to his phone. Does it happen to you too?

Can you share a screenshot? We might be talking about totally different things.. And about the effect I'm talking about, i can't like intentionally notice it if i look at screen going off very carefully but only notice it sometimes (like an offguard thing), it barely lasts 0.1 second before screen goes off!

I think we're talking about the same thing if you say it lasts only a split second before screen going black, So i cant post a screenshot.
And the red flash only comes where the screen is on White UI, like when im in settings or google app. Where ever the the lcd is white, it flashes red just a fraction of a second before going off.

Oh that looks bad.. That's not the thing that happens with me, it's goes like the black shadows of fonts and icons go briefly red before going off, it's probably a bug in that feature for u..

just noticed another bug.
the option to switch off ambient display is greyed off for me, everytime the phone is on table its always on the ambient display without any movement.
I lock the phone and it comes to ambient display within 2 seconds.
Has anybody had any issues connecting Bluetooth devices? I have an Anker Soundbuds Slim+ BT headset - and the X6 just doesn't see them. I can pair them with my Fitbit Ionic in 3 seconds, but when I try to pair them with the phone, they're simply not detected?! I have connected different headsets without issue. These buds work on BT 4.1, so they should work with this phone, right?!
D'oh. Just noticed that it had previously paired - so was hiding in "previously connected devices". Never mind...

Hi everyone ,
I've got the chinese Find X 256Gb (PAHM00) and there are issues with the 'curved panoramic light'.
If somebody is calling me, the screen lights up, showing the number and the 'curved panoramic light' lights up too.
But the main problems are the messages and notifications. If my phone lays down for a while (standby) and i recieve a message, the screen lights up showing the message on a banner and turns off after a few seconds, no 'curved panoramic light'. I tried several different settings/options, but there are always only two results: 1. as mentioned above, 2. the screen stays black and the phone just rings, no 'curved panoramic light'.
One time, the phone was in my pocket and i recieved a message, I immediately pulled it out, the screen was black and the 'curved panoramic light' lit up, but only two times. I can't reproduce this.
What's wrong with my phone? I even did a factory-reset, but without positive results.
Does anybody have the same problems or a solution?
Thanks.
@Oppo-newbie
Settings --> Smart & Convenient --> Gesture & Motion --> Turn off "Screen-off Gestures"
This option is already turned off. The 'Raise to Turn On Screen' is off too.

Panoramic ligth does work here, but only 2 times. I believe that's normal. So don't expect it to keep flashing, it's just 2 times and that's it.. (Probably would kill the battery if it kept flashing.
No, Oppo says: 'When someone is calling or there are new notifications that just came in, the curved edges will light up, continuously.' ( I can't put in the Oppo link ) . On the website, they also say, that the curved light doesn't work if 'Turn On Screen Notifications' is enabled and I think that this is my problem, but I don't have this setting in my menu.
Same question i want to ask.
Any idea how to keep the light flashing until i read the message?
hope they fix Light Options...
I’ve only ever seen 2x for notifications and infinite for calls. I think you’re experiencing the feature exactly as designed
Same here. Could you fix it? I mean, if this is how it's supposed to work , it's pointless.

As for now, this feature is ridiculous. I couldn't find a solution. Hopping Oppo will fix it with an update.
By the way: can anyone tell, if it is the same for the 'global' version?
The Edge panoramic light is working like i had hoped it would. I receive the same problem as well. If anyone know which exact method to have the settings too, that would help greatly as I'm about to loose my mind with this phone and its mysterious operational system.

are you saying if you have lock screen magazine on it will work more effectively, please clarify thanks .
Mine works completely fine. Have global version CPH1871EX.
I have the screen clock on standby active and also the lockscreen magazine.
Also please check if the Turn on Screen for Notifications in set to OFF in the Notifications & Status Bar settings. Might be the reason why your display switches on instead of showcasing the panaromic notification light. BTW the notification light comes only twice over the edges and not more.
Here, I got it working after hours of try and error. Actually, it was a theme issue for me. First of all I turned off "Turn on screen for notifications" option in "Notification and statusbar" menu. This is what I did next:
0. Set lockscreen from the default theme
1. Turn on Lockscreen Magazine
2. Click on a like button, read a story
3. Turn off Lockscreen Magazine
4. Open Themes -> me -> my wallpapers
5. Set any wallpaper as lockscreen one
Hi, im coming from an iPhone...and im really struggling to enjoy the screen of the Galaxy S9+
the screen is sooooo saturated, even when i adjust to less red in: "Configuration > Screen
Plase, can you help me to make the screen less coloured or less saturated??
i think those colors are not real....
Thanks
If you're still on Oreo...
Go to Settings / Display / Screen Mode and try one of the settings other than Adaptive display.
Also, if the blue light filter is turned on, try turning it off. That will make the screen seem less red.
If you're on Pie, you should be able to do the same thing, but I don't know where in settings it might be.

It's possible you have a defective screen. If you can, take it to a phone store and compare yours to another one on display. Mine does not seem reddish to me, unless the blue light filter is turned on.
i believe the most accurate display mode is basic, so maybe try that one?
