Hello!
I am using a SAMSUNG GALAXY NOTE 8 Exynos Version 64 gb SM-N950F running on 1 JULY 2020 update.
I am waiting for a fix but nothing seems to be fixed.
To explain Black crush in few words: Area with Black pixel where it should show shadow gradient.
Colour Banding:
Gradient colour are not transforming smoothly into another one.

My phone's screen is ridiculously bad to even look at after this. Because let me get straight i bought this to see beautiful AMOLED screen; not to see this bloched screen.
Anyone facing this issue please comment below as it will be helpful.

 
UPDATE: FLASHING THE PHONE TO AUGUST PATCH (AS ADVISED BY SAMSUNG REPRESENTATIVE) DID NOT WORK.

i believe so. The Samsung executive said that we have instructed service centers to not register any formal complain in the system so that this issue is fixed without any cost.

Maybe. the guy on the phone said they'll install some updates. I'm not sure if he meant flashing it or something else.

I guess service center has no idea about this issue.. they would ask u to replace the display without even looking into the phone ..I had this experience last month...its literally waste of time and money
