Different shades of green, but the same name (hex) of colour Adobe Illustrator

Hello, 

 

I have an issue with my shade of green. I am editing green colour of this line and I changed HEX number of it like the one with logo (on the ss). I don't know why it turns to different green. I've double checked it and the hex is the same.

 

What should I do? 

 

Thank you in advance

HEX numbers don't mean a thing if you don't know the RGB profile. Different profiles give different colors with the same numbers.

So check the color profiles of your hex colors.

Example:

Illy is seeing the preview color not the actual image color, either embed the image and select color, or open in PS and duplicate color settings from there. I think there's also the suggestion to shift and select the color, I can't remember if that works... I think it's a bad limitation of Illy that you can make an image in PS then not be able to access that color in a sister app...

So the other color is in a placed image?

How do you measure color?
