[Q] Brightness keeps varying/flickering after C2104 15.3.A.0.26 upgrade. - Sony Xperia L

After upgrading my C2104 to 15.3.A.0.26, my screen brightness keeps on varying looks like screen flickering. When brightness is set to lowest it can be easily observed while at max brightness it is not noticeable.
Strangely when I make a call or plug in the charger screen stops to flicker!
I tried downgrading to 15.0.A.2.17, where I did not encounter this issue.
Is anybody else having the same problem, it's very disappointing!!!

Yes, I'm also facing this issue.

Yes me 2!! This is really scary!

Everybody is facing the same issue , its the software problem i think !
For the sake of testing , i am downgrading for now to check if the brightness issue still persists there !

[q] is screen flicker on the shield normal?

On my second unit and they both have screen flicker at random times. Just something to get used too?
I don't think so. I had that problem on the original Nexus 7 too, I believe, but only at low brightness levels.

As long as the brightness is above 25% no flicker. Thats where i keep it now.
both me and my friend, we have it too
Flickering is produced by a battery optimization option. You can find it in display settings.
For me the flickering is caused by the light sensor and adaptive light.

Screen flick

Hi there, i am using samsung galaxy s5 When the screen brightness is lowered to the lowest setting, the screen begins to flicker. Raising the brightness a few notches stops the flickering. I have not dropped the phone or exposed it to water – the issue started out of the blue and it’s driving me mad! This problem started last 3weeks when i flashed cm13 but i don't think that was the cause, i have tried screen overlay thing on devs options also tried gpu rendering things, turned off the adoptive display. All came out with nothing. Please help.

Well Mate..Its Actually A ROM Issue(Source Bug) I Think.. I Was Using CM13 On My MTK Device, A Week Before & Faced Screen Flickering Issue..And Reported It To The Developer Of ROM..He Fixed it in The Next Update.. Try Reporting this Bug to The Particular Developer of your device(S5) ,He Will Fix it ..

[Fix] BLACK SCREEN OF DEATH

What is black screen of death??
Plz google it.
For those who are facing this issue.
I was also facing the black screen of death issue from past 3 months.
The only way to avoid it was through rebooting the device.
And by searching web others recomended to replace the flex cable.
Solution:- guys now i am not facing this issue by keeping the brightness greater than 5/10 (>5)percent.
I have tested this persnally for 10 days and i have not faced black screen of death till then.
But when i reduce the brightness to 0% i start experiencing the black screen of death.
I dont know properly what incresing brightness does.
Permant fix can also be done by increasing the minimum brightness value. (I dont know that hiw to do). May be devs can help here.
Those who are facing black screen of death keep your minimum brightness at or above 10% that will fix it.
Will try.
What ROM?

I got the same problem with my nexus 5 too. After lowering down brightness to below half somewhere, the phone screen shuts off but the phone is still on and if i blindly drop down the status bar and increase the brightness by assuming the slider there, the screen again turns on
One thing to note that my screen does not have any dead pixels or display problem at all because I tested it. Also when the screen turns off the task that was carried out on the phone still stays i mean that when i play game at night and lower the brightness, then the screen turns off but i can hear the sound of the game running.
I have tried many roms but the problem still remains.

Try changing the rom which has this issue fixed at around 10℅ brightness.
Bcoz above 50 ℅ is. Huge for battery drain.
I am currently on santosh m 7.1.1 15/12/16 build and i am not experiencing black screen at 10℅ brightness.
Since you play at night ( night modde will also help ).

I have tried Santosh ROM it's still there, but the thing is that this problem I am having was even on the latest stock ROM (till android 6.0.1 Dec).
I don't know why it happens.

Flickering Screen (Reboot, TWRP, Locking and Unlocking)

Hey Guys,
i have a weird issue with my OP6.
On low brightness my phone is heavily flickering if i restart. It's even happening while locking and unlocking the phone.
I've red some threads where people told it would be a hardware problem and they used warrenty and replaced their screens.
But hornestly i can't believe it's hardware sided.
Does anyone ele have this issue? And was able to solve it?
If necessary i upload a video.
I also went back to OOS 9.0.4 and beta 15.
Actually i use liquid rom (havoc also) and tried different kernels.
greets Earth
Mine just started doing this today but on high brightness. 1/3 of my screen at the bottom flickers and starts turning dark after a few minutes of usage. Did you get this figured out?

Disable DC Dimming.
It will solve your problem.
Please report this to the oneplus community.

Doesn't fix my issue. It only happens when the phone is cold and it's only the bottom 1/3 of the screen.
I've had the flickering issue over the last few weeks... At first the screen was greyish down below, then it turned black, so i couldnt see anything in this area.
But i could manage to fix this issue, just by wiping cache in stock recovery.
Since then, everythings fine

Sasmsung galaxy c5 brightness problem

My c5 recently got a problem when I restarted my device. Its screen got dimmer then before. Its brightness control is working but screen brightness at low level is too low that one could barely see. And at higher level it isn't bright then before. As brightness is decreased from a higher level it starts to get a pink or reddish tint which gets higher at lower level with to much dark display.
What problem could it be? Is it a hardware issue or software one?

Try flashing the stock firmware, if it doesn't fix this then it is probably a hardware problem.

I factory reset it but it haven't worked for me. So still should I reinstall a stock rom using the odin method??

Same problem. I think is hardware problem. After around week in full power off state, screen again works normal few days and again get problem. And after few day working with bad brightness screen fully not working (after reboot) and need week in turnoff to return working.
