Hello everyone
I new in the forum and I wish know if someone else has had the next problem. Recently I replace the display and touchscreem from my xperia z1 and everything is perfect until after a while running a horizontal flicker begins to appear in the areas where there are lots of color or contrast between letters and background color , when I stand in a dark screen the words are more clear but flickering too.
Rule out that it may be the display because already tested with other display and the problem continues . Besides as I read on different topics all seems to indicate a problem with the operating system or overheating and video.
I tried several versions of KitKat and lollipop both for the device is C6902 , and all the fault persists, a similar experience and has had success in solving ?? I tried the thermanager solution http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-z1/general/flickering-brightness-charging-t3128804 but I do not know if I was right or I need something to work properly ...
I link the problem in video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GghgVRy91aY
This is the same problem in other video with a better resolution https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lOklu9z-vg0
Thank you for your help ...

i now have the touch hd for 3 weeks and i noticed a slight flickering in the touch flow interface. there is a grey area on the top of the screen (where it says mail and wheather etc) and when you look at it i see a slight flickering (only when you look closer (20-30 cm or closer). i tried turning of the auto adjust for the screen light but this doesn't work. also in a store i looked at another touch HD and noticed the same.
the strange thing is dat when i look at a full screen photo or just about any other aplication, then i don't see the flickering. so is this a defect or a software issue or something else??
anyone with the same experience and knows a solution. HTC won't respond to my e-mails
Screen Flicker
Hi,
Not sure if this is the correct section of the forum but seeing as someone has already started a thread regarding this. I have the same screen flickering issue! It's bugging me!!
i just did some research of my own, held 4 touch HD phones in my hands today, all with the exact same problem. so it is not a single defective phone if it is a defect, it might be a production error or a software problem.
(i know this problem doesn't belong here, i am new here and accidentally placed this topic here. sorry. don't know how to place it in the right place. maybe a forum moderator??)
just made a call with HTC Netherlands. the person on the phone also had an touch HD and spotted the same problem. he told me this was a new problem and he could only send it to HTC hoping that more people will report on the same problem and that they will start working on it.
he thought it had to do with the refress rate of the screen. i don't whink it is, as it only has this problem with certain teints of grey. (like in the touch flow interface)
Could you guys move your posts to an existing thread instead?

I hope I am not the only one with this problem, cause I suspect it must be a software/render problem with android mediaplayer/web browser. On all flash videos I get close to transparent greyish/blackish flickering, it is kind of subtle but very irritating, and it does not look very beautiful... I wonder is there any way to fix this problem ? I think I did read somewhere the problem is that screen is 24 bit...and android is 16 bit but yeah I certainly hope there is a solution, and that is not a hardware problem...
I can for instance tell you, the brightness lightness samsung video does not have this kind of flicker...
What are the sites your viewing?
for instance youtube,.
No flickering here. Youtube, engadget, embedded videos all play smoothly at 480p-1080p. Try updating your firmware to a newer.
This sounds like the problem I'm having. Flash videos play smoothly but the top half the screen has a very annoying flicker.
It happens in all flash videos, in all browsers. Other file types play without any problem though so it's very strange
Hey! My first post here on XDA! Just got my Note and I have the same problem as described above.
The strange thing is that the flicker on the right side (or top side if in horizontal mode), is really noticeable in lower resolutions up to 720p, but nonexistent in 1080p!?
For example, watch the first 15 sec on the Cars 2 trailer in 720 p. and see if you got it.
[I can't post a link as a new user apparently, but Google it.]
Do you guys think it is a software related issue that probaly can get fixed or should I return the phone?
Please give me some advice!
Same problem.. Does someone know what to do about it?
I recently got Xperia SP (less than day old) and upgraded it to Jelly Bean 4.3. However due to issues such lag and such I decided to install customs rom. I chose MIUI. Unfortunately due to my newer status I am not directly able to report this issue in the orginial SP MIUI dev thread
I encountered a problem with screen on MIUI build 4.3.7 installed from imanesaurus . I have attached a video file which shows the screen flickering issue. It is not really a whole screen-wide flicker, it's just localized flicker with varying magnitude of flicker. It seems this only happens on grey color as white and black seem to be fine. I do not know if this is a bug or hardware issue. From experience, I know cheap TN panel do this primarily on screen when it's producing grey color.
Has anybody encountered this issue? Is this a hardware issue or bug? I will also try different rom (FXP) and also see if going back to stock rom makes any difference.
Model Number: C5303
Android Version:4.2.2. JDQ39E
MIUI Version: 4.3.7
Thanks in advance guys.

hey buddy this bug is widely known it seems to be a hardware problem but it is not as it is not present in 4.1.2 hope sony will fix it in the new version that has been certified ! :fingercrossed: so if sony will fix then developers will fix it to
Are you using auto brightness? If so then this is the cause. On stock Sony 4.3 and even in 4.1 I have this problem. Sony has to create a fix for this
A week ago i observed something strange with my xperia z.
The images and text was being distorted. I searched on internet but couldnt get any solution.
For now its obvious that its not a hardware issue as the flickering part also rotates with the rotation of the phone.
Please help me.
I will be really thankful

Try to flash again the stock rom.
already tried.
Hello. Issue is the screen all of a sudden turns into very phosphorite colours. I've searched for any similar issue here in xda and have not seen anyone else with this problem..
In another forum (Spanish only) various people have reported the same issue after my post there. And in most of the cases the issue seems to show up after watching a video/movie potentially related with Netflix and/or HDR.
Rebooting solves the issue. And another person reported that after leaving the phone locked for some time the colours were back to normal...
Have note 8 for less than a month and this has happened 2 times already.
I post here as audience will be wider.
Anyone with same issue or idea?
Thx a lot

I think we're waiting on pics. Phosphorite is a rock, so I'm not sure what phosphorite colour means.
sounds some settings in the screen mode were changed. when it happens again, dont reboot just go toggle a few different setting and see if it fixes it. also, having tinted colors(phosphorous?) seems as RGB got changed under the advanced settings in the display mode settings.
I do know some apps are be able to change brightness so mybe other can change color settings? some sort of a blue light filter or 'night' mode?( tint to a warmer shade?)

Is it only when you're charging? I have my screen saver set to colour, and I'd describe those as psychedelic. But I just have to touch the screen to make it stop.
Haha. Yes phosphorite is probably not the right word... the screen turns into fluorescent colours (like in a highlighter pen). Hope this clarifies... let's see if it happens again and I take some pictures.
Thanks for the responses so far
