Display Color Problem

Greetings everyone,


I have serious problem with my lcd display, i never had this problem on El Capitan. but this problem come after i upgrade my MBPR to MacOS Sierra.


First of all, the problem start with flickering, more like dim flickering and its happen randomly. Then, when i untouched my macbook pro for 3 days, the problem is gone. The flickering is gone.

But now, the display color was horrible, its display yellow on brown color i think, i dont know what the name of this color problem *screenshot below


I've tried many way, like SMC & NVRAM reset (so many times), Run First Aid on disk utility, Update to latest macOS 10.12.2, with no luck. even the problem still exist on Safe Boot & Recovery Mode. The problem sometime gone but its just for 2-4 second and again its random, and then the color messing again.

I don't have any external monitor, so i can't test it on external monitor, but when i screenshot on my MBPR and see the screenshot on my phone, the color looks very normal!


Is that a bug? or problem with my LCD? I tried to push and knock the screen with my finger and nothing happen

Should I try downgrade the OS to El Capitan? or try reinstalling Sierra? Anyone face this issues before and find the way to fix it? and also my warranty is out of date.


I searching this problem anywhere but can't find the same problem like me, so i decide to made the post here.

Its drive me crazy, Since i work as graphic designer and illustrator, this problem was a huge problem because color is so important for me.


Please Help Me..
