Telus rolls out update to fix the Galaxy S8's 'red tint' display glitch

Firmware

Canada's second-largest carrier Telus has today started rolling out a much-requested update for its variant of the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ to patch a rather frustrating bug that results in some users noticing a “reddish tint” on their handset's display.

Aside from the inclusion of a couple of additional bug fixes, the upgrade appears to be identical to the release that started making the rounds in Europe and South Korea recently, transporting a couple of new settings for the Adaptive Display screen mode.

To see if the OTA is ready for your Galaxy S8 or Galaxy S8+ follow these steps: Settings > Software Update > Download Updates Manually. If it doesn't show up, don't panic. It just means that it hasn't reached your device yet, so be sure to repeat the process in around 24-hours.
