Whenever I make a video go full screen within a browser (be it Chrome, Dolphin and others), the video controls constantly flash on and off the display whenever I slightly move the phone. It seems as if any movement registered with the accelerometer triggers it.
I'm running Franco's latest nightly (still happens on stable), rooted and unlocked bootloader. No other notable changes have been made. Any ideas? Thanks!

Hi. I've recently noticed more screen jittering and periodic flickers when I'm scrolling. I tend to keep my thumb on the screen and slowly scroll when I'm reading. The problem isn't as bad if I just tap quickly to scroll, but if I do it slowly, text is shaky or almost shimmering.
Anybody else get this effect when scrolling? Opinions on whether this sounds hardware or software related?

Thanks.
depends if you are talking about the home screen or in applications...regardless it is a software issue.
You didn't mention if you have a microsd card installed and how full it is.
Secondly, this is known to happen immediately after reset, and is somewhat normal.
Background apps might also affect performance.
I have seen multiple problems posted about issues with the various browsers crashing while viewing flash video and then switching to full screen mode.
I have found that ICS+ browser is the most stable. Also, I found a way to make it work 100% of the time.
The problem seems to stem from the fact that even though I have desktop mode enabled and flash set to run as "always on" this is not the case.
When you start a video you still have to "activate" flash by pressing somewhere within the video screen (I press on the slide bar) or you get a black/blank screen after switching to full screen and the browser becomes unresponsive. I have done this and videos have worked 100% of the time.
Just now I tried to play a video and forgot to activate flash on the screen and the video crashed (black/blank screen plus unresponsive browser) and I had to force a stop of the browser in the application tab under the settings menu. I then reloaded the same video, pressed on the screen (got a green flash) and switched to full screen no problem. So it seems the issue is with the flash player and not necessarily the browsers, the rom/kernal or tablet (hardware) itself. Don't know if this is just an issue with our device on ICS or if the problem exists on other devices as well.
Curious.
just thought I'd share my experience/discovery? for other to try out.
Hey, I have MX5 with the latest "stable" international version of FlyMe installed and I keep getting a weird glitch or bug with the lockscreen while playing music (I'm not sure if it's only happening while playing music but it's certainly most common)
The standard lockscreen with music playing on background looks like this:

And sometimes, when I pust the power button, or try to unlock/wake the screen or even without touching anything it "switches" to this weird lock screen, which is smaller, has different wallpaper, can be swiped to the right (and doesn't even show the right song playing) and overall it's just a ****up. Several tries to lock/unlock the phone get rid of it, but it appears again few minutes after.

This happens both with the stock music player and the Google music I tried afterwards. I also tried hard reset and it didn't help either.
Any suggestions?
I figured out this bug may be caused by a magnet in my leather pouch. If the phone gets close to the magnet it opens the weird glitchy windowed lockscreen. I made a video about it:

1) Now, I have enabled the fingerprint scanner and have my phone secured with a pin. But when I swipe down to open the notification bar and press the settings button, it takes me right to the settings.
Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong..?
(Real point having a pin security and fingerprint scanner when you can still open up the phone without knowing the pin or having your finger scanned in..)
EDIT2: Now the same thing is not working, and I have no idea why it did that..
2) The second thing that pisses me off, is these black bars under some apps. I think some apps(like Snapchat, see the Imgur link) think that I've enabled the virtual buttons. I think this is a bug.

3) Not sure if this should be under bugs, but like the recycle bin button makes switching between apps really awful, it has a 5.5" screen and I'm struggling between switching apps. (see Imgur link)

EDIT:
4) When on youtube, some videos don't have the HD option. When I head to my PC and open up the video, I can switch between up to 144p and 1080p, but some videos have like 480p maximum. But some videos have 1080p. Not sure why this is like that..
I haven't experienced any other problems or bugs(besides the focus bug in camera app, but it's a pretty known problem). Overall, the phone is really great. No lags(I've been only using it for a day now). It does overheat when charging and using the phone, but since it has a quickcharge charger, it's okay I think. Loving the LED light. Build quality is 10/10 - ign.
Anyone else having these problems?
Should I report them and to where? Is there a place where I can contact the developers?
Hi all,
When using multiwindow for certain apps, it doesnt work correctly. The app that doesnt work correctly can only be pressed in the top lefthand corner of my phone.
i mgur.com/OpCAAhX (remove space between i and m)
As you can see, the bottom screen works fine, but the top screen can only be touched in the small box.
What could cause this issue?
P.S. I've rebooted my phone and reflashed superman custom rom multiple times with different versions. Currently on v1.8.1
Me too and seem like no one would like to explain
I figured it out. Go to game tools (android app). Change game to high performance. Its not working because its forcing the game to be lower resolutio to save power
When I try to disable my bluetooth, the smartphone shut down. I noticed that bluetooth was in this condition after updating the google app.
