Hello all,
I'm sure most of you will have seen the flickering icons in the notification area of the HD2. I've noticed that these can slow down any rendering done on the phone while they are flickering. Has anyone managed to remedy this?
EDIT: A video of the problem can be seen at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vo1Lm30EYaU

you have flickering icons? :S I have not experienced this, any further details/video of it?
Video uploaded, link in the first post.
I see the flickering you are referring too, doesnt it only happen when the wireless is connecting to a network?
that could hint as too why the graphics slows when it flickers
the phone will be doing some background work in attempting to connect to the network so the processing power will be impacted by this.
I do not think the actual flickering is the cause of the lower rendering speed however.
Unfortunately, this happens when ANY of the icons in the notification area animate. The WiFi is just a good example of it happening. I have tried performing other tasks on the phone while the icons are flickering and I have not found the performance of the phone to have degraded. For example, while the WiFi was connecting, I loaded the start menu and started scrolling though it continuously - it remained perfectly smooth and fast.
but you said it affected rendering? surely then you would notice it when scrolling the start menu because it would be choppy? If this is just a flickering icon issue then you could try using a taskbar mod that changes the icons/icon animations.
I have noticed that the wifi icon does flicker (though I have not seen it as bad as your video) I havent experienced the same flicker with the battery,volume or signal strength icons.
I have the same problem, sometimes it's making me nervous
Hi All
Over the weekend when i tapped on the battery icon instead of a screen similar to the volume control screen showing the current Internet connection and the battery level it takes me to the battery and backlight screen.
I never made any changes to the phone so I am wondering where this screen has went and how to get it back.
I had a look for a screenshot showing what i used to have but I can't locate one - sorry the description isn't the best.
Any advice appreciated
Phone was running fine and I loved it, but hated how the bottom lights would stay on as long as my screen. It's annoying at nights so I downloaded this mod to fix the backlights to only show for 10 seconds instead of it following my phone's display timeout. Ever since then, the signal in the notification bar has been wacky. I used to have full Wi-Fi and at least 2 bars of signal. Now the phone shows only 1 bar of Wi-Fi and no bars for signal, yet I can still send out messages and etc. Anyone know the problem?
tl;dr - fascinate running dj05 wanted to change the backlight settings to 10 seconds with mod. Now signal bars are always low, but everything works fine. Just want my signal to show how much I have normally. Thanks in advance.
Hi guys i seem to have a problem which i cant figure out where its coming from. This is my second device that does this, basically sometimes after i unlock the screen i get a glitch or scramble on bottom half of the screen for about 1-2 seconds, mostly when it unlocks to the contacts or call log tab.
At first i thought its because i had disabled the transition animations and window animation scale in developer mode but it did it after i set them back to default as well.
After i thought its from the light animation on the lockscreen and i disabled that as well but same issue persists.
It only happens 3-4 times per day.
I exchanged my first device because of this and now second one is doing the same. I will try and post a picture later. So is anyone else experiencing this or do i switch again?
Hi guys,
I've been experiencing a strange problem with my N4.
Sometimes when waking the phone back from idle mode the screen gets dimmed. Not all of it though – the status bar and control panel at the bottom won't be affected. It looks like a layer that all of a sudden covers most parts of my screen. Toggling the brightness settings will have an effect on the overall screen only in that it only allows more light through this half-opaque black layer, it won't get rid of it however. I need to reboot the phone in order to get rid of it.
Running a rooted N4 – CWM 6.0.4.7, SuperSU 2.16, KK 4.4.4 (KTU84P)
This has been an ongoing problem for as long as I have the phone, I think… but it seems like it's becoming more frequent. I can't find anything related to this topic on the internet.
Thanks.
