Isn't it enough that the battery icon at the top of the phone is green now? Why the always-on display too? It's downright ugly, especially if you colored your AOD as the green clashes.
First World Problems...
The problem there is that someone with a defective phone would only have to not accept the update and pass their phone off as one that is safe.
Can't please everybody. To each their own. Got annoyed at the green icon at first also but am appreciating it now.
I mean, it might be one, but let's be honest. When you pay a lot of money for a high end device, you would want everything to be to your liking. If I paid $850 for this, I think I should have the right to be bothered with the aesthetics of a green icon. The only way to deal is to wait for that update and keep your Note, keep your Note and deal with it or just get another phone.
It's kind of like getting a computer that is said to have an optional touchscreen but after getting it, you find out that the touchscreen is actually not optional, it;s required.
I have that update - AT&T sent it out early in the week. It only affects the task bar at the top of the screen, not the AOD. It's actually pretty detailed - white outline, the empty battery portion is like a light celery green, the full portion is a darker kelly green and the fills have white outlines as well. But only in the task bar icon... AOD is solid kelly green with kelly green outline (empty portion is your background)!Nobody reads my replies on this forum. I read this morning that the battery icon is supposed to change on a upcoming update. Green battery outlined in white, with white level indicators inside battery.

Fair point. Not the best analogy lol.It's like getting a computer and the battery icon on the bottom right is green. It's not as major as having to use a touch pad. lol
LOL...everything to your liking, on an Android phone? Have you been to these forums before?
I wish that were the case...
Fair point. Not the best analogy lol.
I wouldn't have 600+ posts if I didn't have an Android phone ever. LOL.
You're right though to a point. I mean the components that you see all the time, like the lock screen, home screens, etc. Some people do root to achieve this, though. I don't think my statement is too crazy. It is possible.
I am pleased with my Android phone currently (not a Note, I just came because this is trending). It generally has most things to my liking. The only things that might occasionally annoy me, I can change without much work. The only thing I can't change is the size, because I wish it was smaller.
The average consumer is not going to know that a green battery icon indicates a safe phone anyway.
