Has anybody has this problem where there's this slight yellow tint on the S9 after the pie update? I checked my settings to make sure the blue light filter is off.

Tried that on mySM T700 running 6.0.1 and no improvement , sadly. Any other ideas. The thing starts up just fine but after a few minutes develops a very yellow screen tint.

Did you turn off blue screen filter?

Try this, drag down the top menu, press and hold dark mode, brings up a new menu, there is a switch to turn off, apply to homesreen.

Hi. I now think the problem is physical rather than software. In frustration I have tried flexing the tablet and intermittently get the screen to flash up with the correct colour way , but it will not stay once unflexed. I removed the case back and tried flexing again , with the same result. However, with quite strong  flexing ( i was expecting something to give !) I now seem to have  the screen back to normal, I expect it will revert to yellowish soon , but imagine a faulty connection on a circuit board is to blame. Will keep you posted. I was just about to buy a second hand Tab S  to replace it , so that is on hold for the moment.

Another thing I noticed with the yellow screen  was a line of grey dots, about 5mm diameter down the left third of the screen, spaced about 20 mm apart vertically. No idea what that is either !!!

I have the same issue. My screen turns yellow and the quality of the screen greatly worsens. 

It happens especially when during call/audio message play back on WhatsApp and you cover the sensor on front of the screen, so the screen turns off and when the screen turns back on - the screen goes yellow... very an annoying!!!

Omg your solution is a life saver - that yellow tone light was on my A70 since the update a couple of weeks ago and hurt the eyes so much! Thanks a mill I would never have figured that out!!

I have done the steps but when I do a screenshot it still turns yellow. And I've checked that the blue light filter is turned off. My screenshot is much yellowish when blue light filter is turned on.
