static lines/ glitching

Anyone else had any graphic glitching?
i was using inparisv4 i have been getting the odd little graphical glitch,
At first its just a small; a flash here and there, but recently the entire screen has be glitching for about 30 seconds at a time (Full on like a no signal telly)
Searched in the forum, and a few people had the prob when flashing the touchwiz interface. they solved it by flashing to samsung ota and then back again.
I tried that i thought it was fixed but a noticed small glitches just once.
Anybody know whats causing it?
I am really freaked

Screen Glitching
I had a new "re-furbed" tab that within the first 30min of use exhibited this. Then the screen went dark and it never booted again. I believe that this is hardware related, and from what I could tell from my research, it happens on stock as well as rooted tabs. I sent mine back to get another "new" one, and hope that I do not have this problem again as the tab is exactly what I was looking for.

[Q] Nook app screen goes black on E-mags!

Just checking if anyone else has the same issue since installing ICS. I know that the B & N Nook app has never been the most stable app and has always been a little glitchy, but now when I open up one of my e-magazines, if I try to zoom into an article or a picture the whole screen goes black. It doesn't happen all the time but it is quite frequent. I have tried a few different mags and have encountered the same problem. Not sure if there is something in the settings I can alter to alleviate this glitch? Never had this particular problem before the update! Any suggestions?
P.S. I have a non rooted US WiFi stock ICS version.

[Q] [Help] Games freezing / crashing to launcher on CM7 - Any idea's?

Hi all,
Having a really frustrating issue with the Kindle. Games seem to be crashing to the the launcher (with no force close or anything). It's happening on multiple games, for example - Cartoon Wars, World of Goo, and really any game that has some type of graphics.
I tried setting the CPU minimum higher, I tried the IntersectRaven kernel, I then tried to limit the overclock on that to 1000 thinking it was that.
I'm open to any and all suggestions, its so frustrating. I have yet to flash back to stock to see if the same issues are there, but I may resort to doing so if I can't find a fix.
Is anyone else having this problem?
Thank you in advance.

I was just about to post an issue I have been experiencing with the Game Shadowgun. I have not had the same issue as above with any games but I have had issues with Shadowgun in that the game will pause itself every minute or two. This is actually the only game I have had any issues with. The game is fairly intense so I'm thinking it's pausing itself to play catch up, either way it's very annoying and the game looks sick so have been trying to figure out a way to prevent this. One thing I have been playing around with is Chainfire 3D witch has solved many game related issues with my phone. Including the same issue that is described above, kinda why I'm posting on this thread as it may help with the issue described in the op. Unfortunately I still have not had any luck with Shadowgun. If anyone else who purchased the game during the $. 45 sale has had this issue, would greatly appreciate knowing its not just me. Also, any suggestions on Chainfire 3D configuration or plug-in that would work well with CM7 Would also be appreciated.. Sorry I know it's not the same issue as above but figure an answer could be beneficial for both our issues.

Welp, just an update. I tried 2 other version of CM7, I tried the overclocked kernel and the regular speed kernel. Both freeze up like the user above stated and or the game closes to the launcher.
I went on to grab the rooted stock rom, loaded that up, and not one crash when playing games.
I really wish someone could identify the problem, I can't stand the kindle rom and love running CM7.
I'm kind of shocked that no one else is experiencing this issue.
P.S. is there a way to load the stock kernel on CM7? (I googled around, didnt turn up anything)
Thanks guys

Strange homescreen behavior [ICS]

Hi all,
I have noticed some strange graphics on the top part of my homescreen when on portrait mode. It seems random and a restart is required to fix it.
I have uploaded some screenshots to my dropbox: http://db.tt/X9HSzTw9
There is no flickering it's just static and I never encountered this issue on HC. Anybody else noticed this behavior? I wonder if it is ICS or hardware related.
Thanks for all your help

Try another launcher and see if it goes away. I remember having something similar (although not as severe) on the stock launcher.
My favorite is Nova Launcher, which is basically the same as stock but with more options, and a hell a lot faster
Also, enabling "Force 2D GPU Rendering" in the settings/development can, sometimes, cause those kinds of artifacts. So if you got that turned on, try turning it off.
Im finding it hard to believe its a HW issue and lean more towards "ICS Issue"... ICS isnt exactly what I'd call bugfree

I experienced the same thing with Youtube App (Even the reboot won't help)
ICS is a big failure so far

I had the same issue at first, factory reset got it stable. Try not to restore apps, I see this advice all over the forums in this case, just reinstall them from the market again.
Good luck

[Q] Screen flashes black, then back on

I have tried several rom/kernel combinations on two Nexus 7's and noticed that while doing normal internet surfing or using basic applications that the screen will black out for second then come back on and resume where it was. I noticed some posts on this in the android development sections, yet no one seems to have a fix. Is this a software thing or a hardware thing?

I noticed this when I installed CM10 based PA, so I guess it's a ROM issue.

Its the surfaceflinger issue. They did something recently to it and im guessing dont realize its a bug.. but let me link you the fix it will work on any ROM.
surfaceflinger-fix.zip Flash in recovery and enjoy.
