Screen flicker

Does anybody have the screen flicker problem with low brightness? Anybody find a solution if you did have the problem?
 
I did for a while, it only happened in apps though, never on the home screen.
Eventually it stopped on its own, assumed an update fixed it.
What firmware are you on?
 
I was thinking I was a low power to the screen issue because it does it if in turn the brightness down enough or when it's about to time out. You know when it dims just before.
 
I have that issue. It has grown steadily worse. At 1st it was just when the brightness was set at the lowest. Then last winter when it was very cold out the bottom 3rd of my screen went dark green & went away when the phone warmed up (I was outside playing Ingress). Now the bottow 20% stays dark most of the time & flickers. Sometimes it brightens up enough so I can see the icons but it doesn't stay long....
 
I had this problem. Replacing the screen and digitizer as a unit might be the way to go if your keeping the phone. Mine cost like $125. I bought mine from etradesupply. Real easy to replace.
