Similar problem - but it went away - thankfully.
Hi,
I had a similar problem. Seemed to start when I added a particular widget (forget which one now!). Once I removed the widget and did a phone power-cycle: the problem went away.
Looked to me like a memory problem - aka some application overwriting the screen buffer.
thanks
i think , i have this problem.when i add this widget , this issue appeared
but also google search bar widget has this issue too
EDIT:
i remove widget and then add it , now issue went . i dont know it appearing later again

I am having similar problems with my screen. I thought I was the only one. I found that once I removed the widget and replaced it, the issue would go away. The problem only seems to arise on the panels immediately left and right of the home panel. I have had my phone since the 15th and the problem cropped up 3 times so far (including today). I can live with this minor inconvenience until I root my phone.

Hello guys,
I've just received my TC and couldn't wait to set it up and install all applications I need.
During this procedure I recognized that the screen flickers whenever there is activity on screen.
Doesn't matter if the device is looking for WLAN or GSM Network, filling up a progressbar during restore of my SMS Messages with PPC PIM Backup or just navigating around in TomTom.
Found out that flickering stops if I hide the progress-bar filling application by opening the Programs-tab in startmenu and if the device is idle and nothing happens on screen (no animation or screen change) it wouldn't flicker at all.
This flicker-thing is quite annoying. Anyone else got that?
Maybe it is an effect of the video-driver problem. Don't know.
Maybe the device is just "broken" in some way and I have to return it to my dealer.
EDIT: Just saw that the screen even flickers slightly when the cursor is blinking in the SMS-Editor
Never seen this problem on my TC. Had it for nearly 2 months. I would return it and get a new one.
OK, now I'm quite sure that it is a device error.
Woke up this morning and the flicker-effect has gone.
The I "navigated" to work (just for fun). And when I arrived (50 Minutes est.) the flicker was back again. Seems to happen when the device works hard for a couple of minutes.
Anyway, I'll stop investigation and send it back to the dealer.
BTW: Thanks for the comment !
Just wondering if anyone has encoutered a problem with the screen turning itself off. It is not a settings issue but the screen randomly turns itself off in the middle of being used so i am guessing it mght be something to do with the light sensor perhaps?
Well if anyone else has the same problem or can offer some sort of explanation i would be very interested to hear about it.
Thanks in advance
i think this might be related to autolock. if you have that enabled, disable the screen dimming and let it turn off after say 2 minutes. then you should be ok.

I've had a similar issue recently - suddenly the screen started to switch off after 30 seconds without use, no matter what settings I configured in the energy system settings. No explanation, probably a bug in the 6.1 stock ROM. (I'm on another ROM now...)

Ditto.
Own ROM 6.1 (nothing special - really just Google maps and teeter removed)
Apps:
4 Column Start Menu.cab
FdcSoft TaskMgr 3.1.cab
GoogleMaps.CAB
GpsCycleComputer_3.114.CAB
htcAddicts cleanRAM v1.6.cab
MobileTweet.CAB
NETCFv35.cab
NetworkPlugin_1_0_30468_1.CAB
PocketShield.CAB
rar.ppc_arm.cab
SoftReset_Suspend.CAB
same here. tried some reg tweaks but none disabled poweroff after 30 seconds
it happens to me every time after i use igo8,
so my solution is to go to the MANILA power setting (not the default windows setting) and turn DIM off.
cannot find manila power settings. where are they?

i have Tom's 6.5 rom so when i goto regular settings it takes me to manila style setting & not the default one.
I have that problem to ?
I have a 6.1 windows, what can I do to deal with this problem ?
Thankx
in power settings enable & disable dim it will fix this but only till next time... i do it after every time i use igo8.
this is especially annoying when using the topaz as hard disk or navigating via tomtom. hope they will bring out a fix soon.
Think my problem was slightly similar as I was using the original shipped ROM. Well phone is with HTC now in for screen repair so hopefully the problem will be solved.
I'm guessing it was probably down to an install of some 3rd party application. anyway will repost after i get my td2 back tomorrow

Hi, Got my phone back recently with this from HTC.

Repair Description: 1. Diagnosis

3. Function Test
All working ok so far!
Hi all,
Just wondering anyone has come across this problem or not.
it happen to me, randomly, thus i am not sure whether is it a bug or setting tht had given this problem, but as far as i can remember, i dont adjust the setting of the default internet browser(nothing much to be adjusted too)
The problem goes like this:
I went to google page, opt for "Images", theh i type in things tht i want the search(e.g. cat)
all the cat images will surface, in normal situation, if i press on any of the image, it will be maximise and showing the image in almost full screen.
in other situation, when i touch on any images, the screen just simply dont respond to my touch at all, the closest i can get is, pressing on 1 image for 2 secs, then an option will come out, asking me whether to save image or view image, and it is jus a thumbnail size...
i tried on and off the phone but it doesnt help. sometimes it will just turns back to normal again.
but today the switching on and off dont solve this problem anymore, damn...
i really out of idea of what is going on, and how to get rid of this problem before i have no choice but to go to a service centre. my phone is a galaxy s, not rooted.
if u guys know where is the fault lies, pls help me. thks thks
Hi
I've got a problem with the screen on my OPO. As you can see on the pictures, all icons and text is double. It's almost like a shadow on everything.
I've tried to install new firmware(CM11s, CM12, ColorOS) and new Recovery and resetting the phone but nothing helps.
The phone is working fine and I have no problems pressing the icons or typing a text.
I'm already in contact with my dealer and they say it's a hardware problem and I have to sent it back(Warranty).
But I'm not quite sure that it's a hardware problem, that's why I'm asking here.
Anybody experienced something similar???
So I bought my used S7 recently, the device seems to be totally clean not even a scratch on the frame, looks like brand new and even the software status is OFFICIAL not even the Knox is tripped.
I found a thread on XDA about using an updated version of TouchWiz Home of the S8 for the S7 by installing the APK.
it worked like a charm until I started to change my wallpapers and notice something strange.
im using an application to change the wallpapers auto every 5 minutes, the problem is whenever the wallpaper i use has some bright colors like bright purple or bright red and i press the app button to access the app drawer those colors (ONLY) flicker , they flicker just before the screen get blurred and take u to the app drawer, and also when u go back to the main screen from the app drawer also right after the blur disappear.
i got scared so i uninstalled that Touchwiz Update and came back to stock, to notice that the problem is still there, but its not as noticeable as the s8 TW
i wanted to know if the screen is dying or this is something normal, and also wanted to know if its a software related problem or hardware one, and finally if someone is having the same issue ( i can share a wallpaper if anyone is willing to try wit it )
NB: the screen flicker ONLY ON THE BRIGHT COLOR before the blur effect happens and After it.
Thank you all in advance & i apologize for my English
I made this video If you focus on the second time especially ( when going to the home screen from the app drawer ) you can see clearly the red rose flicker. Sometimes the flickering is harder depending on how bright is the color.

This can only be a software problem, because its also visible in the Video. Your screen is not damaged, and it will not be damaged. This issue is not a problem, maybe only a bit annoying.

It is so annoying for me cuz i had an old S5 plus that ended up with the screen flickering so whenever i see it flickering i got a heart attack.
Is there anyway to fix it i tried factory reset but nothing changed..
Thank you anyway for replying
I think thats a Problem with the Launcher. I've tried it on my Phone, and it is also flickering. You can try to speed up the Animation-Speed in the Developer-Settings. Maybe then you wont see the flickering.
You can see it here, that it is also on my phone: https://photos.app.goo.gl/nYKM5ss9EKe3L0M43

Thank you very much !!!! You have no idea how much its relieving to know that this problem is not only present in my device.
For now ill just stay away from bright wallpapers until hopefully Samsung will make fix for this issue.
Thank you again !
EDIT : after i came to the pc and i saw the GIF u made i noticed that we dont have the same flickering , maybe the quality of the GIF wasnt high enough but for me it didnt seem to be te same, so i will ask you one last time when you tried that wallpaper did it show the SAME result as my video for u ?
thank you in advance
