Red border flashes on Screen - Xperia P

Hi Guys,

I bought xperia P on Tuesday (20/08/12) adn was working fine. I updated to ICS on (23/08/12). Still it was working flawlessly.

Bought a Microsim today, and without checking anything I uninstalled Mcaffee which was the default antivirus provided by sony. After that whenever I bring the City temp/climate gadget on home screen the home screen flashes a Red border on the screen. Similar thing happens when I try to open album. Everything else is working just fine.

What can be the issue? Any work arounds?

I have attached an image, this is how it looks. But goes away instantly and pop ups on when I access something that needs internet.

factory reset shouldn't damage your phone at all

Hello,

I have similar problem- RED MARGIN

Even after factory reset problem exists, I even unchecked all boxes in Developer options.

Please help!

This happened to me tooo, and AFAIK it happens when the "Strict mode enabled"-->User Interface-->Developer Options-->in Settings in ticked on............

Just turn it off and do a restart........ and I think it will be fine.
