Screen flicker?
Hey N900-people. I've had a disturbing problem every now and then; a bad flicker-attack on the screen. It looks like a faulty old CRT-screen, with very quick black horizontal lines running around the screen, a power-down does not necessarily help. Starts suddenly, and evidently stops just as suddenly; if I don't use the phone for a while, it's gone. I think this happens at least once a day...
I haven't read anything about this on here before, have I missed something or doesn't anybody else have this? A new phone shouldn't behave like this, so now I'm wondering if this is a bug-to-be-fixed or if the phone actually has a unique problem that needs service... |
Re: Screen flicker?
Sounds more like a hardware problem than a software one to me.

Re: Screen flicker?
I know what you mean. My screen flickers when Im flicking through desktops. Do you notice it then?
|
Re: Screen flicker?
Is there a microwave or any other heavy interference source close by (just to rule out the obvious)?
|
Re: Screen flicker?
No microwaves around, this happens in different locations. But a good point, indeed. And I don't work or live in a radiotower or anything like that :-)
Butterfly: yes, indeed when flicking through desktops a few of the same horizontal black quick lines appear if I try a couple of times, but nowhere as much as when an "attack" occurs; they're everywhere then, I would say there are at least one line per screenupdate, probably more. 50 black horizontal lines in different places per second? Perhaps. There's a lot of flickering going on. And right now, nothing, the screen is calm and nice, and I haven't found a way to start this flickering-attack intentionally - yet. |
Re: Screen flicker?
Hi,
I can as well report that my screen does flicker when I change desktops. I noticed that this does so when I do it at a fast rate. I have the 3.2 firmware. Did any others experience this? Any solutions for it? Its rellay annoying especially when i think that this is a £500 phone. |
Re: Screen flicker?
Certainly haven't noticing anything like this myself.

Re: Screen flicker?
OK so I am glad to know I am not alone! Are you all still getting this problem? Was anyone ever able to fix it?
:confused: :mad: |
Re: Screen flicker?
Since last week I have this exact problem.
Although it goes a bit further and distorting the entire screen. When I turn the screen off, it doesn't turn on again. Leaving the device off for a while subsequently relieves the problem. I'm sending it back to nokia as we speak and i hope it's something that can be diagnosed and fixed easily. |
