Note: I searched forum for screen flicker issue, but it wouldn't let me reply to the thread for some reason, so I'm creating a new one here.
Phone : Samsung Galaxy S3 SGH-i747m, ICS, not rooted.
Hi guys
I noticed when I'm typing a message or email, the screen would flicker sometimes, its so quick that if you blink you'll miss it, I know I'm being picky about it because its an expensive phone. So I did some more tests on it, I thought it might be due to samsung keyboard so I installed third party keyboard and noticed flicker again, then I installed sms pro, still noticed flicker; noticed flicker in email app as well as gmail app. At this point I thought it might have something to do with the software(sending keyboard signals to the operating system?) since it only happens when I type. So I did another test, but this time in SMemo and I didn't notice any flicker, I was puzzled here, so I tested 5 times for straight 15 minutes straight, no flicker.
I noticed that in all the apps I tested except SMemo there was something in common - traditional "textbox" object, whenever I typed in a typical textbox, I noticed flicker. So I downloaded few note taking applications which were using typical textbox and non-typical textbox(not sure how many different text objects are there in android, I haven't started android app development yet.) so I noticed flicker in apps with typical textbox, and didn't with non-typical textbox.
So I was wondering if you guys can do a similar test on your phone to confirm whether the flickering exists on your phone or not. I'll be relieved to know that I'm not the only one with this flickering issue, and hopefully Jelly Bean update will fix it.
To reproduce, just open a messaging app and start tapping on the letters from Q to M one by one.
Side Note: I did send the phone for repair in case it was a hardware issue, they couldn't reproduce the issue for some reason, reloaded the firmware and sent it back to me. sigh
tldr: Screen flickers when typing in any other app except SMemo.
You didn't search very hard, or you would know that the flickering is a known issue. That can be fixed by either raising your minimum clock speed to around 384mhz, remove your under volt settings, and disable hw overlays in dev settings.

I already know about the "disable hw overlays under Developer options" but unfortunately theres no such setting on my phone and excuse my ignorance how can I remove under volt settings.

You obviously didn't read his entire list or you would have noticed he was hoping that jellybean would fix the issue. Disabling hw overlay is for aosp jelly bean builds. The op is probably still on ics.

Undervolting requires a kernel that supports it as well ad an app to control the voltage of the CPU. While the ktoonsez kernel does support undervolting, you stated you didn't know how to change the settings. I am assuming you never undervolted your CPU.
Are you using ktoonsez's newest kernel? His older kernels were undervolted and did not have stock settings

Actually I haven't rooted by phone, it's just running what my carrier provided through OTA. Recently, just had an ICS update but that too didn't fix the problem.

Crap, I just made an ass of myself, thought you said you had different kernel.
Sorry bud, haven't heard of the screen flickering issue on completely stock phone.
Hmmm...well, I don't have this issue.
But, I know the power saving adjusts the refresh rate: try disabling that if it's enabled.
Also, you didn't change any settings in developer options, did you? Like show screen updates?
What apps do you have installed? I know my brightness adjustment app did funky things with my screen when I first installed it.
Or did this happen right when you got the phone?
I don't know know a lot about backing up, but you could reset your phone and see if it still happened?

I already tried disabling power saving, the frequency of screen flicker reduced but it still flickers.
None of the setting is enabled in developer options.
I dont have lot of apps installed, may be one or two, texting app and google chrome and other apps which already came with the phone.
I already tried resetting to factory settings, but that too didnt solve the problem.
It doesnt flicker when I type in SMemo, but it does in other apps, this is the thing which I dont understand.
ssicsts bis
Same thing is happening to me, some help would be greatly appreciated.
so no one else is having this issue?

THIS FIXED IT FOR ME, big thanks to - jedi5diah
Attention! I found out that the damn FASTBOOT option is causing a lot of problems esp related to camera and browser screen glitches.
My wife's one X is on fastboot and had a auto reboot and a few force closes and screen glitches started to appear, compared to mine with fastboot off from first day had non of the above mentioned issues.
Go to settings/Power then uncheck fastboot option and restart your phone.
pardon me if this has been mentioned.
That's not banding, banding us when gradients are not smooth. What you see are graphical glitches, these are usually graphics driver issues.
Is it a driver issue? If it is then won't all units be effected? Or some with ealier firmware? I am using 1.26.401 and do not have this problem.

I don't own a One X (yet) but maybe it's a setting or it depends on the codecs of the movie used. On my SGS2 there is a setting to force 2d hw acceleration under development options, try toggling it
have this issue aswell. comming up sometimes in browser.
ok i watched the video and i can see it's occurring in a specific scenario when the menu drops down
I can safely say it might very well be a kernel problem, most custom GB kernels on the Desire HD had a similar problem when an HD video is played in portrait, only the official kernel worked well but then we had to wait for HTC to give us the source
but why some have it and others don't? despite being on same firmware?
usually a device have different configurations internally, such as two/three different sources for the screen, camera or sensors, there might be a conflict with a specific combination and hence again a kernel problem
or a random Tegra3 related memory leak that needs plugging
third possibility might be a defect somewhere in the device or SOC, but after watching this video i think its unlikely

What do you think, could this be kernel problem to.

I don't know if i should DOA it, you pay hell of money and you get this feeling.
This is a widespread hardware problem not a driver issue. Some samples have it and others don't even though they are on the same software version.

yea i already know this one, seems similar to the above, unless the nudging on the screen is physically causing it, can also be graphics acceleration drivers issue
like i said on the Desire HD whenever video acceleration get messed up it shows similar corruption and its all software related, we know T3 accelerates video by NEON in each core and also in the battery saver core, its definitively an NV mess
if nativestranger is correct then HTC have a disaster on their hands, still even hardware issues if figured out can be plugged by software like HTC disabled the 2d core in certain Sensation configurations
I have the same issue, dont know if i should exchange it or just wait for an update... Gonna send this video to HTC.

Can all one x user try do like this video and see if your get same bug?
https://www.dropbox.com/sh/qigl22ogcciur67/1C17INr6PJ/20120406_160836.mp4
It's very sporadic. I just got the YouTube glitch too, when the video is in HD it glitches like crazy. These glitches also happens in the browser and the notification bar. But sometimes it.dosent look like in the video, it more like "noise" on the screen, but never lasts long enough to get it on camera... So people might.not be able to reproduce it.

That issue is software related, the video directly above it appears to be a sence UI problem. the one on the main tread i can't replicate even with 2d hardware rendering.

Nice find, when i change launcher i can't get the bug. Can you other try it to?
Edit: you don't need to change launcher, pull down the status bar when you are in a app that is not sene or htc related.
similar problem
I've had it happen twice in camera mode with the same banding, and once with full screen banding and green blocks... getting a replacement tomorrow

I tried with GOlauncher and i couldnt provoke it to glitch, i fastpressed the notification bar but nothing happend so i guess its a Sense 4.0 problem?
---------- Post added at 12:47 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:22 AM ----------
Could you try this:
Go into safemode:
1. Press " power key " for power on device
2. Wait until "HTC logo" appears on screen
3. Press and hold " Volume down key " until entering OS
4. " Safe Mode " text will appears on the lower left of screen Safe mode will disable all 3rd party apps and only preinstalled apps will work, this is done because some of 3rd party apps can interfere with your phone functionality.
In safe mode try to fastpress the notification bar couple/plenty times
to try provoke the glitches, i cant provoke them.. In safe mode all 3rd part apps are off, could this problem have to do something with 3rd party apps?
I made a simple open source nightmode app for rooted E4GTs that turns the screen to red and black, to preserve night vision. I've only tried it on EL29. Whether it works on other firmwares, or other Samsung phones, depends on whether they use exactly the same /system/etc/mdnie* files.
USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.
If you ran some screen adjustment app that modified your mdnie* files, GalacticNight will refuse to start.
There are also options for green and black, black and white, as well as reversed colors (e.g., if you want to browse the web at night, reversed BW might work better).
You also save some battery life in single-color night mode, because you don't turn on the other colors.
Yes, I know there is ChainFire3D, which is a great app, but this is better for nightmode. ChainFire3D does nightmode by simply dropping the green and blue colors. That way of doing things can make some things invisible (e.g., some things in the UI may be pure green, and then they'll turn black). GalacticNight, instead, properly converts RGB colors to luminosities, and then sets the red (or green or white) intensity according to the luminosity.
GalacticNight manipulates the /system/etc/mdnie* files and should not have any more impact on performance than, say, using the Movie color profile in the standard settings.
If something goes wrong, you may need to go in with adb and copy the backed up mdnie* files from /sdcard/GalacticNight_backup

Yup, that was perfect, thank you. I didn't realize that busybox's mount formats the list of partitions a bit differently. I just posted 0.02 which fixes the problem your log showed. Of course, there could be other problems.
I updated to 0.03. Don't know how compatible it will be, but now it does things quite differently (it sets up a link from /system/etc/mdnie*dynamic_mode to files in /sdcard, so it doesn't need to touch /system when you change colors) and adds a new sepia mode which changes the background to sepia (same shade as Kindle app uses).
Looks like one problem is that this stuff has been seriously changed in ICS while I only have GB. Looking at ICS source code (for the I9100, but I am hoping it's the same here), there is a control file called "tunning" (yes, "nn") somewhere on the device (maybe in /sys/class/mdnie/?) that controls color tuning files. Can anybody check if they have such a file?
here ya go...this is from cm9
but it seems to just be blank??
Thanks, it's actually a control file. When you copy it it should be empty when you have no tuning file.
If you want to try to help with further development, I posted instructions in this thread on what would help next. It's hard to develop for an OS version I don't have, but I really don't want to go to ICS on my device.
For the daring user, I made a version of GalacticNight for ICS. Not tested on any ICS device, but based on my understanding of the ICS mdnie driver source code. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. Here it is. If you are daring enough to try it (I do think that if it screws up the display, a reboot should fix it, but I can't make any promises), I would be grateful for tests.
I would recommend first testing the Dynamic/Standard/Movie modes. Those are less likely to cause problems on your device.
If you have GB, you can try this version, too. I did test the GB version of the code. This version has a new screen mode called "No blue" which turns off blue pixels to save batteries, and modifies red and green to compensate. White turns to yellow. I've heard that blue light makes it harder to fall asleep, so this might be a good screen mode for use while reading yourself to sleep. I certainly felt like I got sleepy while using this mode last night.
Just tried the last update for ics. I'm on cm9 nightly 8/3 and it seems to be working fine

Excellent. I spent a couple of hours adding S3 support since then. Could you try the current version to make sure I didn't break the S2 ICS support. I hope it will all work on S2 (GB and ICS), S3, Note (completely untested) and maybe even the 7.7 Tab (completely untested).
Also, while you're testing, I'd like to find out if the color mode survives turning the screen off and on. (It doesn't on the S3.)
On my S2 it returns to normal after screen turns off.
Still an awesome app though. With the way you have the interface it is so simple and quick to change colors, having to reapply after screen off is not much of an issue for me.
Thanks for building this app. Great job!
Forgot to add.. I am on CM9.

Hello
I noticed a strange case, and so far I can not find its causes, so ask. Model 12W14 ABAC, soft XTX7, Lock. bootloader, touch firmware 7. When i turn on some heavy 3D games, and playing a while the screen itself slightly reduces its brightness, and when i return to the os menu for a while it returns to the level previously set by me (in my case 100%)
What could be causing this? I do not think that it was a light sensor (ambient light sensor) I've noticed it recently, and I'm not sure is that previously occurred. After a series of tests, I noticed that the screen after reaching temperature (above 42C) changes in brightness (more cool colors, less saturated). I do not have any yellow spots, but its surprise me. And now my question - whether mounted screens in this series have been so, and it is only due to the fact that they are in LCD technology, and thats how they react to heat, or any other reason? Or is this a bug in ICS firmware
Maybe u can try app 'disable auto brightness for xperia' in play store. Hope can help u and pls reply the result...

Temperature
I have exactly the same problem and I'm pretty sure that it's related to temperature.
By looking at other threads, I understand that I need a de-odexed rom and change something in init.d.
But what are these things?!
Isn't there any noob guide around?
This issue is totally on my nerve.

Hi there i have open this thread for the new firmware so we can discuss it.
So far I´m really disappointed with overall rom speed and its lags here and there. Another thing is battery drain by google apps wakelocks.
On screen time is not impresive either. I know it is still early to judge this rom, but this is my opinion from using this rom for more than day.
How are you people happy with this update?

Yeah, it's laggy in when scrolling in settings, forcing GPU rendering fixed that. Also it seems to charge much slower than 4.3. I had the same issue (slow charging) when I was on AOSP. Not sure if I will revert yet...

Mine is still laggy....
Already reset, and forcing GPU rendering....
I haven't actually performed a reset - mine was a 101 4.3 upgrade... and I need to try doing a full reset...
I've noticed a lag at times with turning the screen back on... (sometimes it takes longer to turn back on...), I've had issues with the "acore" process crashing... but from what I've read that's likely another application... probably something that would be resolved with a reset/wipe, I've also had issues with spontaneous reboots... and I know yesterday was having it show that I'd been on "battery " for ~ 2 minutes when I'd been at my kid's soccer game for an hour or so and on battery the entire time... could be a bbs issue, could be a wipe issue... I had also experienced lag in some parts of settings...
Most everything else seemed ok... but at this point, I've rolled back to an asop 4.4.2... (I found that I had to roll my baseband back to 101 to have an asop 4.4.2 rom get cellular connectivity again...)

Why not use the built in backup and restore? For me it works perfectly...

You need to kill the settings from the task manager after forcing the GPU rendering to make it apply correctly.
Does anyone else have a huge battery drain?
I had to charge my phone twice today with a screen on time of one and a half hours. That's almost half of what I got before. No mather if it was Cm11 or Stock Rom 4.3!

Me too, I have the 4.4 Stock Rom of Generic USA and Google Services are using 73% of my phone's battery. My phone now needs around 4 hours to have 100% of charge
Any idea of how to fix this?

Same thing for me... I think I might have to downgrade. What device version do you have? Where are you from?

I found this on a post on another forum, the person stated that it didn't make a big difference for him.
I tried it and found a noticeable difference.
Passing it on.
Root not required.
Under Developer Options
(search Google: "Enable Developer Options LG G4") if you're not familiar
Change:
Window animation scale to .5
Transition animation scale to .5
Animator duration scale to .5
Check "Force GPU rendering"
I have been running these settings for about a week
Response time and keyboard issues seem normal, no skips or delays
Battery life does not seem to be effected
Thanks for sharing... but it's doubtful that this will have a significant impact on the touchscreen issues.
Thanks! I'll give it a shot, what's the default supposed to be for Force RTL layout direction as I'm not sure if I accidentally toggled it on or not.

Thanks, I noticed that with it checked, the word Password in apps was shifted to the right side so I changed it back to off... Will report back.
I will say that I am texting at my normal speed again.
Before it was 60% mistype failure.

Didn't make a difference for me.... What are the default/original settings for the following?
Window animation scale
Transition animation scale
Animator duration scale
Touch screen had been fixed in software release 13B, no more need for any of these placebo fixes that don't make a difference anyways.
13b might have fixed the issue but installing 13b means eliminating any possibility of a bootloader hack if it ever does come out in the near future, it's more of a bandaid solution if one is staying with 10b.
