Let me explain the issue. Whenever I apply a pure black wallpaper, it appears to be grey near the notification bar. I know this may be done intentionally by Samsung to make the notification icons more clear. But this tinting is not necessary when you have a black wallpaper. This shadowing is fine when using other wallpapers but really bugs me out when I see this on a black wallpaper.
Do you experience this too? If so, has someone found a solution to this?

Try restarting the phone. Happened to me once. I restarted. It got fixed.

It happened because I was trying extremely light wallpapers for which the phone was automatically putting shade to make the status bar more visible. But when I changed the wallpaper to a darker one the shade stuck.

I restarted. It fixed. Try. I don't know if it's going to work for you too.
