Hi, When using my FP2, after a short while, the screen starts flickering. Did you also experience this issue? Is this a known and solved bug? Please, check picture enclosed and short film in we transfer link: https://we.tl/Bkqqc7p4NA Thanks in advance, Jean-Baptiste Meert [image]

[image] fneuss: can’t upgrade to 17.11.2 currently because I swiped on time too many in TWRP which modified something I don’t think this will have any effect on the flickering, but you can manually update your OS. [image] fneuss: I took the display off and reinstalled it, which helped fo…

Thank you Paula for your hints. I will update manually as soon as I find the time - definitely will do updates regularly! :slight_smile: As the contacts were new and looked clean, I did not try cleaning but will do it again. I guess ethanol does the job (as long as I don’t drink it and the phone is…

hey everyone, i have the same issue. screen just goes crazy, flickers, phones gets unusable for many hours. i have upgraded to the newest software version, problem got even worse. it occurs when i scroll down for a few minutes, because reading something online. it starts with a light flickering an…

… it was gone for a while, but now it is back, and it’s not because of an OS update. Could it be an app casing it? But which?

Here is the report I promised: Not sure how to check if all contacts align well though since I can’t look into the phone when locking the screen module with the rest :wink: but I followed Paula’s idea of cleaning the contacts.

I have the same Problem sometimes. I wonder if it’s really a Hardware or a Software Problem? The cleaning seems to help, but not to solve the Problem.

Exactly, it is the same for me. There are some more hints to this, sometimes phrased differently. So we are not an exception, although forum postings are certainly not a solid base for any statistics. Anyway, I cannot use the phone in its current state for a longer time, so I will now file a suppor…

Same problem here, since this morning the screen flickers, changes colour and contrast andturns on and off seemingly randomly. Touchscreen and buttons don’t respond, rebooting doesn’t help. I have filed a support request.

I have the same problem. It was preceded by a Bluetooth malfunction and a hot phone and fast-dying battery. Next it was the flickering screen. Twisting the phone helped at first, but cleaning had removing screen had no effect. I have contacted the support team 3 days ago but still no reply.
