Sounds like screen burn to me. Is it just the app icon? Can you see like the news feed very faintly?

It sounds like screen burn 100% and no it's hardware issue. Only way to fix it is to change the display

Yeah my note 4 had it bad also aswell as my s6 edge. Try to use a blue light filter app. It should equal out the colours so overall it should look a bit better

Amoled Sucks

I don't know if this is the place to ask but I have a problem, maybe someone knows something about this: the s6 sm-g925f edge that I have, had a option in the screen setting where the resolution of the screen could be changed and after a while that option disappeared. I tried a stock rom from smmobile for my country but the option is not back can anyone help me please
The option should be where the arrow is in the picture right ? https://forum.xda-developers.com/picture.php?albumid=14502&pictureid=56343
Please please help. Thank you.

Have you tried reinstalling/clearing the data? We haven't picked up anything like that on our side. Maybe contact the support team at [email protected], as they might have a solution.

Here, I extracted it from my system. You should be able to install it.
Edit : Please note I can only confirm this works for the Galaxy S8+ (G955U) as this is the device from which I've ripped it from.

Does this work screen off with 3rd party apps like hangouts? Initially it wouldn't glow the edge if the screen were off unless it was a text message.

Thanks for this!! Works great!!
Here's the update if anybody hasn't gotten it yet
https://www.apkmirror.com/apk/samsu...se/edge-screen-3-1-00-1-android-apk-download/
Great update, thanx for letting us know, I almost never remember to check Galaxy Apps updates
Outstanding. Works on my S8. . Thanks!!
Actually it doesn't seem to be working on my S8. It allows me to make the changes in settings but now the edge lighting doesn't come on with any of the apps I selected and even with messages/text.
I know this update is posted in the S8+ section so could that be the reason it's not working or does anyone know how to fix? thx
Just installed it and it only works while the screen is off unfortunately

Mines not working at all.
It's a step in the right direction, but I think they should give you the option to manually pick the color for individual apps. Because I use Light Flow and I would much prefer if the edge lighting matched the same color as my notification LED.
Only one app was updated that was Edge Screen on my device. I have a G955U, and I ripped the apk and uploaded it. I haven't checked, but between devices the libraries could have been slightly different and the update redirects to multiple unreferenced versions for different devices.
So, sorry but I can only vouch this working on my end for the Galaxy S8+. I will update my download to reflect this statement.
Can anyone tell me how to actually get the edge lighting to work?! I have it set it on for EVERY APP, yet, I have never actually witnessed it work!
After recent update it still works for me only in stock samsung messenger
and calendar apps. Nothing else, same as before.
If it works - it works in all possible combinations (face up/down, screen on/off).

Thanks for your effort.
Do I understand correctly that when screen is off it will just put it on and display notif. ?
Thx!

Is the notification bar only semi transparent?

Hi guys just wondering. Is the notif bar only semi transparent? I mean i see a light shadow if i put on a light wallpaper. The shadow is apparent. Can you give me a screenshot of your homescreen.
Thank you.
On some screens yeah it looks semi transparent... At some screens it does not. Example.. Check the screen shots it's all transperent here..

I was wondering how you set your notification bar smaller? Mine are way too big and changing display mode and text size does not do anything.

But in any case, could you share the steps on how to get that look? I'd like to study it first in advance. I just got my mate 10 and it would be a waste to root and void the warranty unless I can assess what Im getting in return.
