Hi All, You may have seen this problem already in 

community forum by many other Note9 Users.
 
I'm also facing this issue from past 10 days.
 

1)Initially, when I unlock phone by pressing power button the display was changed to dim colour(mostly yellowish) and with horizontal lines displayed when the brightness is below 50%. After tried with multiple times pressing on power button the display came back to normal.

 

2) Next stage, it's not solved with power button. I have to keep my phone aside for some time to get back to normal display. It's been 15 to 20 min then.

 

3) Now, I would get normal display only in morning. Else, I need to keep my phone idle without touching for at least 4 to 5 hours. I've also changed screen power off time from 30 Sec to 10 Minutes. So that my screen wont turn off and I can keep the normal display. If I forgot to use or kept aside more than 10 min then my screen would go off and display would gone again and irritation starts with that discoloration problem..

 

4) If display changes to yellowish to reduce the horizontal lines problem I need to increase the brightness to 80 or 85% but this causing my phone with another problem "heating issue"

 
Initially I thought this was my device problem and I felt like i'm in worst situation in this hard time. After searching in community and google I have got to know that Many other users also facing the same issue.
 
@Samsung need to respond on this issue and they must answer these questions to their customers.
 
If problem persists in one or two devices randomly we can accept that.
 
But this problem could be seen on many devices( that too at a same time frame. Its not common problem which can be seen on one or two devices..
 
Its already reported in many websites like #PhoneArena, #AndroidAuthority, #9to5Google and #SamMobile However, we didn't here any word from our company #Samsung about this issue.
 
1)Are they going to fix this through next software update?
 
2)Would they help their customers to repair if problem not solved by software update?
 
3) Why it is happening in many devices at same time ? What is the main cause ?
 
4)How could this can be solved ? (Apart from same stereotype answer "Go to nearest service center")
 
We all know, without any specific guidelines from Samsung officially service center guys would surely say its display problem and you need to replace the display which will cost about 19 or 20K for each individual.
 
Please respond every one here who are facing the issue.
 
Self Declaration: using best case for protection and it was not fallen till now. Using very carefully and I don't have any problem till now expect this.

I am also facing the issue from yesterday. But there was a software update notification. So I installed the update. However the problem is still not gone. 

 

[Edit] I tried reducing the brightness. The discoloration is gone. But the phone is difficult to use with low brightness.

I have this problem twice in Galaxy S9 in Indonesia
1. I bought new on March 2018. Screen turned yellow on April 2019.
2. I paid ~$140 for screen replacement on November 2020 at Samsung authorized service center. Screen turns yellow on March 2021.

I complained to Samsung Indonesia online but their answer is basically I have to go to service center again that means I have to pay that $140 again for screen replacement.
This S9 is never dropped. The S9 quality is indeed inferior to my Galaxy S7 which still has good screen though accidentally dropped several times.
Moreover, S9's NFC no longer works since Pie update in January 2019.
We need users in EU or USA to file class action againts Samsung.
