Why does the Moto G4 Play screen keep flickering when I am doing normal activities or changing to a live wallpaper. Once it just flickered so hard that the entire screen went black for 12 seconds and then it was back. Usually flashes for 3 seconds. I did not root or do anything to my device can you please help me

I have it happen here and there. A flicker or two for me. Happened on my G3 also. I think it's a 6.0.x issue, and not a phone issue. It doesn't really bother me though.

Thank you very much for the clarification, the truth that there is not much information of the update, we have to wait
The only way to stop this flickering is to root. What are you doing in XDA without rooting the phone? Flash TWRP using a PC with minimal ADB and fastboot and Motorola Drivers installed.

My phone is rooted. I have TWRP. The screen flickers in normal activities.
Flash a custom ROM. My fav is ZephyrOS because it gave my phone great performance than the stock one. It stopped the flickering too.

Flashed CM 14.1 and the issue is solved! Thanks!
I've had my phone stock for ages, never once saw a flickering screen...
YMMV I suppose.
What do you mean by YMMV. Noob question, sorry.
I read somewhere that you can stop the flickering disabling the MotoDisplay.
I don't use it, and mine doesn't flicker.

Hi Ashutosh, I'm experiencing the same issue. While building and modding SomefeaK Kernel y ended up realizing that it's most likely to be a hardware problem since I solved the graphics driver bugs with the SELinux policy modification I made by doing some research about the SuperSU binaries.
This way, EGL doesn't crash anymore but the screen keeps flickering.
Screen flickering is also present in the recovery which is what I believe a confirmation about this being a hardware bug.
We could try asking Motorola a replacement if we present a complaint to them, even with an unlocked bootloader. Why? In my case, the temperature caused by this hardware bug melt the volume keys painting (decolored them).

I've only had the S3 for a few days and haven't even installed very many apps.
When I pull down the top menu or when I first open an app it flickers with white pixels.
I'm assuming this is a hardware issue with the phone?
What do you think?

Well I was going to post a YouTube video of it, but I guess I can't because I don't have 10 posts.

Factory reset only deletes user data it does not "reflash" the OS. Before you return it you may want to (if you're into it) try reflashing stock ROM via Odin. If after you've flashed stock rom you are still experiencing issues then you know it's definitely hardware.
Hi all,
as stated in the past days by oneplus, a new touch firmware has been released and will be in cluded in 5/15 cm12.1 nightly. this should (i hope so) resolve all the remaining touch issues that affects many opo
Here is the coomit: http://review.cyanogenmod.org/#/c/98287/
05/18: The touch firmware has been reverted to the old one because of battery drain caused by dt2w
sub.
Looks like working very good. Flashing Nightly and screen is more responsible ever sinde the failure occured. waitung für Lord Boefla or slimkat to include it

Yes, working fine for me.....
The question now is.... will be forever?
multi touch on mine phone on x axis is still jerking from time to time
sometimes it works normally, detects 2 fingers, then on the other hand detects one or none
will see how it will perform through the day, but since i made a clean flash, i doubt that it will be better...
I have the grounding issue with my ONE. No problems with higher temperatures though.
I flashes Franco Kernel r43 boot.img on my stock cm12s. Fo rme the issues are gone.
x-axis touching is working good. Swiping texts is finally possible again!
Thanks to synaptics!!
I will probably switch to cm12.1 nightlies again when I have some spare time left.
Any way this could be a flashable zip for all ROMs or is this something that is baked into the ROM/Kernel?

You can flash Franco's kernel below if you are on CM12s/CM12 (5.0.2). Or the alternative is to flash the 5/15 nightly (5.1) or wait for it to be rolled out OTA.

Nice! Thanks for the link. Flashing now.
I had only mild touchscreen issues so I'll see if it gets rid of them.
I've never had touch issues thus far, but I am a bit disappointed at the fix. Although I do notice a better touch response, the fix isn't a fix and is a workaround. PPPreferences has a huge battery drain (com.qualcomm.display) which basically, like I've seen written somewhere, means they're just keeping an app open to recalibrate the screen constantly.

Not for me. Nothing changed in terms of battery usage with today's nightly. Also it isn't even listed under Apps in the battery screen on my device.
This app is only used for post processing (Live Display) and has nothing to do with the new firmware.
I was suffering from pretty bad heat related issues, all gone now.
I just flashed Boeffla-Kernel for CM11s. I can definitely tell a difference. There was one app that I could make it jump when swiping up or down and holding it toward the bottom-middle of the screen, no longer have that issue. I also constantly had trouble with it "clicking" things when all I wanted to do was scroll up or down on something. Have not had that issue since flashing.

Hmm that's pretty interesting then, but I don't seem to be the only one reporting a difference in the CPU time of something which includes the Qualcomm services. We'll see with more usage though.

Op, search youtube for S7 Edge screen flickering and be amazed! Brand new S7s were doing that.
If you slide the brightness to max, it should stop. Or if bright light hits the dimming sensor, it stops.

Most likely an issue with the AMOLED PWM implementation/controller, the flicker free Kernel doesn't use PWM to control Brightness.
So this might be an suitable workaround for users without warranty or possibility of repair.

So I was having screen burn issue on my Redmi Note 4 Snapdragon varient and I was really sad to see burn in issues after flashing Resurrection Remix ROM.
Burn in issue didn't happen to me before but after I flashed Custom ROM, I started noticing it.
So then I went to Service Centre and I showed them the issue.. They replaced my LCD Panal.. I was happy and thought I'd not get burn in issue again.. But nope.. It happened again..
Then I started searching for posts about burn in issue.. And finally on this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-4/help/screen-burn-mido-3-32-tianma-display-t3673540 @muzaffarsyam

Has anyone else here played this game on the essential phone? I have a couple of strange glitches. I initially thought they were associated to my original faulty device, but after receiving my warranty replacement that is not faulty the same issues still persist on PUBG Mobile. So I am assuming it's something with this phone in general.
First glitch is some artifacting during the loading screen on the notch end of the phone. I am assuming this is because of the screen resizing to accommodate for the notch. It seems like it starts to attempt to resize the screen a few times in a row every once in a while resulting in what looks like some screen glitching. I've noticed this in other apps while using them too like chrome and OfferUp. Looks like every once in a while the app suddenly attempts to resize back to full screen mode for a split second, then immediately shrinks back down again to cut out the notch area.
Other issue is while using both fingers on the screen at the same time. Moving while aiming for instance it will spin my character around a little bit.
Doesn't display any of this behavior on any other phones I've ever had. I already contacted the publisher of the game but Wondering if anyone else has these issues and knows a workaround.

Also is it possible to force games and other apps to utilize the full screen pace around the notch? As much as I don't like apple I do notice in YouTube videos that it does fully utilize the notch area on the iPhone X.
Alright nevermind found the settings in developer options from YouTube video to force all apps to use the notch area.

Yes! God, I thought I was the only one with the multi touch issue..but I'm too lazy and stupid to get P so I suppose I'm out of luck.
There's a fix for the multi touch glitch bug. It's a magisk module called "Pixel 8.1 multi-touch fix".
Let me warn you, DO NOT install it if you are on the stock essential ROM, because it will fail to boot. It is only safe on AOSP based ROMs. I can only vouch for myself that it works flawlessly with lineage. If you are on stock ROM you'll have to wait until essential releases a fix.
I just read up on it a little. Apparently it's an issue with all phones running 8.1.0 Oreo witch I did not know. My original essential PH1 was faulty, kept crashing and rebooting so I thought this was part of the faulty device.
Looks like they plan to release a fix in June security update.
