Screen flickering 4.3

Flashed Generic AU .266 C5303 to my UK unbranded C5303 and my screen/backlight is flickering like a pulse. Anyone else experiencing these issues?

Hi.. i have serious problem with my sp.. my screen is flickering (minilag) every 1 second on 4.3 firmware.. This happen everywhere (games,UI,photos etc.)

i have tried the following

  1. Close auto brightness, set brightness to max or min, Bravia engine on/off
  2. Factory reset many times..

Hope sony will fix this with upcoming firmware!

The same problem here, after 4.3 update the screen started to flicker, its especially noticeable in poor light conditions, or when the backlight is at the maximum and/or with mainly grey colors. Before the update there wasnt any problems with that. This is very annoying, and not very ergonomic, i have to say. Any solutions?

Rickard;

I will pm you in the morning.

The flickering is constant, bear in mind it is very faint until you notice it. I don't see it on blacks or whites but greys show it immediately.

Most noticeable on nav bar as the transparency makes it look as though the wallpaper is changing
