Help New Google Maps & Navigation Flickering

The new Google Maps update makes my phone go haywire when using either Maps or Navigation. Anyone else having problems with it? It causes my screen to flicker, the settings menu becomes one large artifact, and it causes my quicksettings pull-down to become translucent and unreadable.
 
Welcome to the Evo V 4g.
DOesnt matter if your stock or Rommed. Seems to be a Evo v 4g issue.. maybe even evo 3d. Even my GF evo design 4g had the same issue with updated map programs.

Common problem with this phone. Remember when Google chrome use to do this before it was fixed. If you have a car and use Trapster you will notice the same flickering after they updated the app.

It seems to happen with map apps when they update the entire app and i guess change the map provider

Only way i fixed any problems like this is to DOWNGRADE the app to the old version and never update it.
 
Yep, flickers on my 3vo as well. I've just let it be because I don't use it much. But for someone that uses it a lot, as mentioned, your best bet is probably to downgrade to a better working version.
