A green tint on your vivo X300 Pro display can be worrying. It may appear when the screen brightness is low, after a software update, or even when using dark mode. While it can look like a hardware defect, it’s often just a software or calibration issue that can be corrected.
If your screen shows uneven colors or a greenish hue, try the following solutions before considering a repair.
Why Your vivo X300 Pro Display Has a Green Tint
- Software or firmware bug after an update.
- Display color mode set incorrectly.
- Adaptive brightness or eye protection feature interfering with colors.
- Overheating affecting the display calibration.
- Physical screen damage or defective OLED panel.
Adjust Screen Color Temperature.
Sometimes, a simple tweak in the color settings can balance the tint. vivo allows you to customize the display tone for better color accuracy.
- Open Settings, and then tap Display and brightness.
- Tap Screen color mode, and then adjust the color temperature toward cooler tones.
If you notice the green tint fading, keep the setting that looks most natural to your eyes.
Disable Eye Protection Mode.
Eye Protection Mode adds a yellow or warm tint to reduce blue light. Combined with certain brightness levels, it can create a greenish tone.
- Open Settings, and then tap Display and brightness.
- Tap Eye Protection, and then toggle it off.
Lock your phone and unlock it again to check if the green tint disappears.
Turn Off Adaptive Brightness.
Automatic brightness adjustments can sometimes cause uneven color tones, especially in dim environments. Disabling it helps you test if that’s the cause.
- Open Settings, and then tap Display and brightness.
- Find Adaptive brightness, and then toggle it off.
Manually set the brightness around 50 percent to see if the green tint remains.
Update System Software.
A green tint may appear due to display calibration bugs introduced in recent updates. Updating to the latest version can fix this.
- Open Settings, and then tap System update.
- Tap Check for updates, and then download and install any available update.
After installation, restart your vivo X300 Pro and check if the color returns to normal.
Let the Device Cool Down.
Overheating can cause temporary discoloration on OLED panels. If your phone feels warm, turn off the display and let it rest for a few minutes.
Avoid charging or using demanding apps while the device cools. Once it’s at normal temperature, turn the screen back on to check if the tint fades.
Perform a Display Test.
vivo’s built-in hardware diagnostics can help confirm if the issue is software-related or due to a damaged panel.
- Open Settings, and then tap About phone.
- Tap Diagnostics or Hardware test, and then select Display test.
If the test shows normal colors, the issue is likely with software settings rather than hardware.
If your vivo X300 Pro still shows a persistent green tint after all these steps, it might be a hardware issue with the display panel. In that case, contact vivo support or visit an authorized service center for proper inspection.
FAQs
Why does the green tint appear only in dark mode?
OLED panels can sometimes produce uneven colors at low brightness in dark mode. Increasing brightness or adjusting color tone usually fixes this.
Can a green tint be caused by app settings?
Yes. Some apps apply custom filters that alter display color, especially video or reading apps. Try switching to another app or resetting app display preferences.
Will replacing the screen definitely fix the problem?
If it’s a hardware issue with the OLED panel, yes. However, always try software fixes first to rule out calibration or software-related causes.
