Dear All,
I recently bought my phone and i am trying to get used to its big screen but otherwise i am fan already.
I was playing a game and suddenly my screen turned purple, initially i thought it was the games graphic but after closing it the screen itself was purple. I restarted my phone and the screen became normal.
Is it something serious?
I am still under my seven days return period and i can cancel the contract.
Thanks

i too faced the similar problem. After restarting the screen became normal. Anyways this may help. Go to 'Display' > 'auto adjust screen power' and uncheck it. This should solve the problem.
So that means its not a hardware fault?

Do not fear, it is not a hardware fault. Its potentially a power saving glitch !!! Your device is not faulty. Relax !!!

Same thing happened to me and I ran to XDA to search and found this! I'm a bit relieved that it seems it is a software issue, but I don't have screen power saving on and I turned off all power saving options.
I started up Gameloft's GT Racing Academy and thought it was some weird game bug, but then after closing it my homescreen was also pink/purplish.
I have a similar problem but it doesn't turn purplish after playing a game. With mine, when ever I wake up my GNote after an hour or so, it will start off green but slowly fade away after a few seconds. One person suggest it could be a screen fault and to return it. But after I disable the auto screen brightness, it has improved (still getting a green coloring when I wake it up but take less than 1 second to get back to normal and I can live with that). But I never had to reboot to get the screen back to normal though. It could possibly be a bug with the game.
If it only happens with one game, it will more likely be the game that is causing it. But if it is happening with every game, I would be a bit more concern.
If you got a custom kernel or custom rom, try a different rom or re-flashing the kernel/rom. I read on a few other threads that by re-flashing, it fixes some problems.
It was happened to me yesterday when I am playing GT Racing game. I switched off and on again then no problem.

Same game it happened to me on. The screen was fine before I started the game, but once I got into the game everything was covered in a purple hue. I wonder if it is that specific game that might cause it, because I'll delete it and never go back.
This has just happened to me while using Google Talk ... Everything went purple ... When switching back to the home screen, icons that were orange are pink ... Not a good look ... A reboot solved it and I feel a tad reassured after reading these posts that it's nothing major ...
Pictures, pictures, pictures!!! Do a hand swipe when you see it to capture a picture!!!!! It happened to me too and I forgot to take a damn picture!

same problem after upgrading to ics
My screen works perfectly on GB rom but when i upgrade to ics it turns purple. you can actually see the moment it turns purple when turning on the phone and the samsung logo appears.. it is white for a few seconds and turns purple. i have tried all the suggestions i have found in forums or youtube but nothing solved the problem. i have also tried many different ics releases but same problem. only when going back to GB it becomes normal again.
anyone has a suggestion?
Last night I went to plug my one in and started getting a message that the power adapter is not compatible, have been using it forever.
Then when trying to search the issue the screen started becoming jumpy acting like I was selecting things or hitting enter when using both stock browser and chrome. Has anyone had this issue? I've been using android revolution HD with no issues for a while now. Has anyone had issues where the phone just started acting up? Any ideas?

is your phone unlocked and S-OFF?
which ROM are you using?
I just downloaded and flashed the latest Android Revolution HD. Still showing the same issues. I thought at first it had been fixed but I opened the browser, went to espn.com and it stared glitching again jumping back pages and selecting links etc that I hadn't touched. I've never had these issues since I've owned it. Think I should take it back to att?

this only happens while browsing??
try any other browser
Thread started for reporting what may be bugs and troubleshooting them. Searched forum for "bug" by title, so there must not be one dedicated to this.
Lock screen timeout: when I hit the power or home button to interact with the lock screen or check the notification window, the lock screen turns back off before I can do anything. It stays on no more than a second. Very weird since I haven't installed anything that would cause this.
Auto Brightness: my phone seems to only care if I'm in complete darkness or bright sunlight. It's not hitting the in-between brightness very well. I've found myself turning off auto several times the past couple weeks. Annoying because I don't like taking screen real estate to leave the brightness adjuster in the notification window.
Feel free to refute, commiserate, or solve as needed. Thanks.

I have ran into the auto brightness thing a couple times. Ironically my xda app will force close at random times.

This just happened. Anyone else? It's supposed to be a picture of my new lawn tractor, not a tan blob. Happened three times. Reboot and wiping cache didn't help.

I have the S6 Active (SM-G890A). I'm coming from a s4, both AT&T. Here is the issue. With the new phone I have a hard time getting back to the keyboard after using voice text. In the past I could quickly press X and get back to where you could edit the text with the keyboard but with the new S6A, it very sluggish and sometimes completely unresponsive. I have to tap it several times. I'll attach a screen shot. Anyone else noticed this? Or better yet found a fix? I installed a new keyboard and still had the issue.
I tried a few keyboards and didn't like any of them. I keep going back to the Google keyboard. I don't have any issues with it on the Active.

Switched from Sprint to T-Mobile and had to trade in my Sprint Note 4 for a T-Mobile Note 4. I noticed in the very beginning I would have these glitches with the system (other than the headphone plug in and S-Pen removed always shown on notifications bar). I have noticed some of my apps/folders would change to a black background (was green one time too), then just a few nights ago I turned on my Note 4 listened to music, then turned off the music. Noticed some of the background kept switching between the white background and color. After reformatting the phone 4 times, I have come to the conclusion it is not an app I have downloaded. Has anyone experienced same or similar issues?
Thanks in advance
