Just installed the 6.0 update and after it i see strange light-flickering bars/stripes on my screen, constantly. It's impossible to capture on camera but it looks like a constant live wallpaper (it's moving) is active. this wasn't before and it annoys me a lot
When i google this i cant find anything like what i have. anyone had any clue what it is or how to fix it?
do a factory reset and see if still there
Did that, but no effect. I think i need to return it

Boys,
Unfortunately today I realized that the camera back, one of three mpx, when it is active, I get to a center red line.
Until yesterday there was not, I have already done a hard reset, but nothing like the active camera reappears, while the camera front all ok.
What can I do?
Sounds like a hardware fault. Return under warranty?

If I were a hard reset?
Looks like the same problem i had.
see this thread i posted some picutres

Also I have the same problemna!
Common Problem
I also have had this problem suddenly appear, after a month's time with no problems. I was able to play with the flicker adjustments in the camera settings to allevate the problem. However it wouls reappear from time to time. Again change the flicker adjustments, and it would disappear. Strange
Excuse as you did?
Hi All,
After updating to Oreo got this weird issue, screen flickers every, roughly 2 seconds. Wit the times it also starts showing some color artifacts, freezing some parts of the screen and eventually going to complete gray-to-black flickering only. Anyone experienced something similar?
I'm thinking it may not be Oreo upgrade related just (unfortunately) some hardware issue.
Cheers

I've had similar issue after updating to oreo.
Half screen displayed artifacts.
Nokia replied to me saying that there is a bug in display drivers. Probably gong to update it soon.
Had to send it back.
Replacement works fine.

The left half of my screen is covered with black/white/grey artifacts. Sometimes after resetting or going back to factory defaults the screen goes back to normal again.
Running Oreo on a 128gb Nokia 8. REally hope it is software related (driver?). So far installing the latest updates doen't fix the problem.
Switched back to my old Samsung Galaxy S6 but man I miss my 8 already.
I changed the motherboard and I got ghost touch problem then I change the lcd and everything seems fine to me
I don't think is sw problem
I have the same problem today. As i received a call, display start to flicker. As i have all imp docs in my phone as i relies on NOKIA , I am as nothing. Somehow I am able to reset to factory reset. phone start works, but I lost all my valuable datas. How can one relies on NOKIa, who was one of BEST
Bro I have a issue of red strip visible on egdes when we turn on night mode for long time with a grey background
So after this much anticipated Oreo release, my display has been left faded looking. It's as though you have the brightness turned all the way up which washes out the color, but even when it's turned down. It's rather frustrating & sRGB is not ticked. Please tell me this isn't the new display & what I could possibly do to change it.
Edit: Also just realized when I change my screen mode in display settings, nothing happens. I can even turn the red, green and blue all the way down with no effect. Anyone else experiencing this issue with Oreo?
Have to say no, that has not happened for me. Display looks the same and changing display settings changes the screen for me. Perhaps a reboot might help...
Do a Full reset, sounds like the ota bugged your settings out.
I've been on Oreo since the release and haven't had any issues with screen color or resolution.
Did you proceed to do the above posted steps? I myself would also say to factory reset the system.
If so, would you mind letting us know how it went and if it fixed the issue at hand.
The only place I've noticed something like this, is when using Google Maps through Android Auto, with my Vehicles display. I get the faded or Ghosting on the display. If I change from maps, to phone and back to maps it's fine again. But it's only temporary. This all started after I got the Oreo update. I'm still actively troubleshooting to find out if the cable is the problem or if it's related to the phone.
after 2 resets im good. started device as new and bo restoration of apps/go from there
Hello. I just bought a Huawei Mate 20 lite, and I immediately noticed that when the notification menu is pulled down, the background (the part of the screen that's visible under the menu, not the menu itself) is flickering. I tried lowering the resolution to HD+, down from FHD+ and the problem seems to disappear. Any ideas as to what that would be? If it is a hardware bug, I can return the phone and ask for another one, or maybe if there is a fix anyone knows of, and this little "bug" here doesn't turn into a bigger problem overtime, I can just apply that.
Thank you very much and have a nice evening.
The same happens to me and not only that. If i left the phone in the same screen for a few minutes and pull down the notification bar or any other dark (not black) screen the screen looks like is burned.
Hio, i have exactly the same, i don't know why they would do something like that but, i don't think its some hardware damage or unwanted either since on other backgrounds if you want so, or other screens it doesn't happen for me, as far as i can see only happens on home screen etc... Also a friend from me has exactly the same with different firmware... Don't know about the burned looking part from 2nd post, definitely don't have that!
Greetings

Looks like a dynamic contrast issue to me. Go to settings, display, color mode and pick normal. That might fix it.

Hello friend, I tried what you recommended, but to no avail. My biggest concern is whether this might be a hardware issue, or it's most certainly a software one - if it's a software issue i wouldn't be bothered at all and i'd just wait for an update or even put a pure android on it, but if it is indeed a hardware issue, i need to know so I can return the phone.

Try it out?
Install a different firmware, roll back to the oldest firmware or something like that. Change your backgrounds, try it out with different apps, play around with screen testing apps. Even if someone here has a similar problem and it's hardware related, yours might still be something different. It's hard to tell over a forum.
Good luck with "pure Android" though, this phone will cost you quite some bucks to just get unlocked and there's merely any support for AOSP ROMs (maybe not even the littlest bit, I didn't look at OpenKirin yet since the phone is so expensive to unlock lol)

Does installing new firmware (I'm currently using EMUI 8.something) v oid warranty? I still haven't gotten the official update to 9 and I'm thinking of just installing it manually myself.
Hello,
I've updated to coloros12 and i wasn't able to change the wallpaper of the phone, so, I decided to do a factory reset
After 2 factory resets, (one trought the recovery and other from the menu) I've found that phone have some lag during some animations, like swiping to show all apps, navigating trought apps, also on twitter when you scroll on the main feed, specially when i open twitter after many hours it lags as hell (like an old slow phone)
so, when i got the phone a month ago it was very fluid but now i don't know if something got broken or if it's a software issue
All this happens having QHD enabled and 120Hz
Does anyone have the same issue? is this a bug? is there a dffefrent way to do a new factory reset?
thanks for all your repplies
Not sure if my phone has the same issue or similar. After the update to android 12 when the phone is set to Dark Mode and going through the pictures in Gallery the screen lights up and it feels like is flickering, also feels a bit slower. When in light mode everything seems to be working fine. Is no difference in FHD+ or QHD and at 120Hz
I'll open another thread for this.
Edit: The problem seems to be isolated and is only happening when using the Gallery app at 120Hz, the screen flickering starts and the gallery is very slow. I've installed another gallery app and seems to be working fine.
