Screen Turning Yellow

[dkspeaks]

Very recently I noticed that the screen of my phone (Note 9) turns Yellow with black horizontal lines.

This seems to have started after a recent update. Is anybody else facing a similar issue?

I saw some similar complaints on searching on Google but no real solution. 

Any update or, help.

Will u please tell me if the phone got wet, fell down or... any physical damage

Solution
1. Download app oled saver from playstore and tune settings in it as u like
2.try factory reset but be sure to backup all your data before doing it

I hope 2nd one works 99% sir

I just completed a factory reset yesterday night. But no use.. the OLED SAVER is something I saw a few people recommending online. Let me try that one now..

[PRANAV4417]

I think Its due to adaptive brightness sir.
Go outdoors in full sunlight and check for the tint.
if its gone then turn off the adaptive brightness settings.

I switched off adaptive brightness as well but the issue still recurred. I installed the OLED SAVER and it seems to be working. Not sure how long. Will monitor for a day and see..

You guys seem to be giving the same advice to everybody in spite of the fact that this isn't a one off case. There are numerous people reporting the same issue and yet no fix.
Based on responses that others facing similar issue has reported and knowing how the service center works, they are going to ask me to get the screen replaced which isn't really something that is a real solution..
I am currently on business travel and would only be able to visit a service center once I am back.
