Really???
I've been hearing this for a few days now, I find it hard to believe, especially as it not 1st April.

I do have a few phones to play with, so I could through it on the Huawei Y6 2019 or the Pixel 2XL just for the fun of it. If it does crash I could just reset the phone back to factory default settings, not a problem.

But I might not...

I would expect Rounding going from 54 to 55 only from 54.5 to 54.9 and remaining to 54 from 54.0 up to 54.4
And B4A Round function seems to work in this way.
So, considering that the explanation in the video is correct, I can just think:
"What the hell of Rounding is Google doing? Not even a check to keep the result to 255 if it's bigger?"
Anyway it was an interesting video due to that explanation.
We can add a new logo to our apps: "B4A make Android a better place" or "This App is Pixel Luminance Bug Compliant" ? ? ? ?

Watch out that too much Black will bring you to a -1 Luminance.......the Dark Side of the Bug.

can't they just plug in the phone with a usb cable and use adb to delete that wall paper?

or remove it from the sd card if it is there.

it's not like it blows up the phone like some monitors did in the late 80s early 90s when tweaking vga modes and frequencies.
