Just noticed, the blue light filter takes a few seconds or more to engage after screen is brought back from standby mode. Pretty irritating.
Example viewing a page within Samsung browser, screen times out ( has to time out )then I press the home button to turn screen back on, blue light filter is off now for a good few seconds or unless I go into the settings screen.

No mines not like that, mines instant and on all the time.. I turned off animations in developer option, doubt that has anything to do with it tho lol

Mines instant also, just not instant when waking the screen with the home button after it times out.

I thought it was just me. I looked around to see if anyone else was having it in other threads but I'm glad I'm not the only one having this issue. Mine is really delayed that I need to turn it off and turn it back on. Sometimes I wait over a minute til it activates so I just end up having to toggle it off and on since it's faster... Unfortunately

I have this issue. Also, even with blue light filter turned completely off, it still engages at dark. Anyone else?

What you have could be Google books issue that you have , it's been discussed on here in the past. It's complete different to what my issue is

Hey on my Xperia Z stock rom nothing flashed, when it is in standby (screen off) randomly the screen glows and does not stop, like the screen is still off but it's like the back light has come on? is this normal? seems to be a power wasting thing to me. unless i look at it from a slight angel (during the day) i can not actually tell it's on, i'm assuming this is why my screen is using 60+% of my battery is there a fix for this?
Are you using any power saving mode?

Stamina mode.
I have the exact same thing happen, and it is definitely a pain as like you say you can only notice it when looking at an angle, and as I have a flip case on mine I only notice while charging. It is just a case of pressing the power button twice to turn off but that is obviously only when you notice it's doing it! lol
I use stamina mode on mine (which is great) but not sure if this is anything to do with the backlight being left on as it only does it sometimes?
I had this issue when i first got my phone ,and not anymore.Not sure how it solved cause i did lot of factory reset and flashing firmwares.
Are you using light flow or any third party apps?
Sent from my C6602 using xda premium
I get this too. I get it when it's locked and it comes back on. Also when I unlock the screen sometimes this happens and I have to turn the screen off and on again to fix it.
Happening here also but not often. I thought it was low battery mode but happens when it's disabled as well.

No i'm not using any third party light apps, seems like this may be an actual bug if multiple people are experiencing it
I have only done one reset/repair to fix the LED notification light bug.
Hope this helps
I know how to fix this. I have an xperia z1 so im not sure if my problem is the same but i use my phone as an alarm so i notice at night the screen is glowing while its standby. If you go to settings or maybe you have it in quick settings go to brightness and deactivate "adapt to lighting conditions" then it should be a black screen woth no glow in standby mode
Are the hardware navigation buttons not supposed to light up? I get that you could potentially use them by feel in the dark but i never even considered they wouldn't be back lit when i purchased it. If they can light up, where is the option to turn them on?

They do not light up. They also do not move or change. Menu, home, back. Took me a few years but I finally have that memorized, sometimes I can even remember in the terror of the inky black of night.
Edit: Wow just reread this post sorry for the unnecessary sarcasm, been a rough day. But no they don't light up, there is no way to make them light up, but it's never given me a problem and I've never heard anyone else have issues with it

Thank you. Guess I'll just have to learn. I guess I could just use on screen nav if it bothers me that much.

Hey so my night clock is set but doesn't activate unless I reach over and swipe the edge. Which defeats the purpose. Then it turns on and stays on but will not just turn on at the set time by itself. Am I missing something or is it just a random glitch?
Thanks ya'll

I have not had that problem, so it does sound like a random glitch. It should just be coming on. Are you completely stock?

Yes it is.
I'm going to try turning it off and turning it back on tonight before the set time and seeing if that works but not hopeful on that

OK. The only other thing I would mention, is the clock won't show automatically unless you swipe, when the battery is low - I believe at 15%. Do you have any power saving modes on by chance?
Sent from my SM-G925V using XDA Free mobile app
I believe so
I can't remember my settings on that. I'll have to double check but my battery is never that low when I'm sleeping. In fact, a lot of the time it's plugged in.
Title,
Is this a thing w/ OLED screen?
It loses colors just before the screen goes off for a brief second. Something that doesn't really bother me, but enough to annoy me.
I was able to turn this off in developers option by turning the animation to none or zero whatever that option was.

You are absolutely right, that does the trick.
I was thinking that would solve the problem, but didn't actually think it was it.
Thanks ?
Screen turns grey just before it actually turns off
Im having the same grey screen issue on my new Note 8. Can you explain where and how I can change this? Thanks a lot.
That is really odd, I have animations to 0.5 and the screen just goes off, no color changing to gray scale, 950F 128 GB
All three of thr notes ive come across go monochrome , normal.

Mine dosnt its full color the whole time and even if i change anim.
Unlocked on Verizon, Smart Stay not working properly even in a well lit room. If I am staring at the phone before it goes dim it seems to work (must be a well lit room) but if the screen goes dim Smart Stay will not work and the screen turns off. This wasn't the issue with previous Note devices, I remember trying to trick my device and have the phone looking away from me and waiting for the screen to go dim then quickly looking at the phone and it would keep the device on. I also recall previous Note devices had an eyeball icon that would appear to let you know Smart Stay is working and this is not the case on the Note8.
Anyone else having issues?

Mine did that when I had the display set to go off in 30 seconds, changed it to two minutes and it works flawlessly now.
Once it dims it goes out. I see what the OP is saying now.
However, the screen stays on when I'm looking at it. Screen time out on mine is set to 15s.
