The problem is summed up in the title itself... Altohugh it happens rarely.. It happens if I use the phone while charging.. I mean when the phone is charging and i text or receice the call after the main display lights have switched off (45 seoncd's not the 15 seconds one where it goes dimmer) the light flickers and it does that for 45 seconds and next time when they come back on they flicker.. Its only happens during charging.. I've re-installed the firmware using NSU..

I have even formatter the phone couple of times.. But it just happens.. Any Idea what to do ?

My N80 also flickers when it's charging, but it doesn't do it all the time and it's not very noticeable. I'm not sure if this has any negative effects on the phone but it'd be great if someone could provide some insight on this.

Im pretty sure the phone is suppose to flicker while charging and this isnt a faulty phone.

I don't think it's suppose to flicker.. I my previous phone had same problem (N series again)🙄 but its resolved with a firmware re-install.. this one isnt helping..

Yea I don't think that's normal, because there's no reason for it to flicker like that. But on the up side, it's not very noticeable and I usually don't use it when it's charging. Just another quirk you have to live with I guess.

yeah, mine did flicker.. now it dont... could have been the upgrade to IE, could have been the bounce it took on the street?

Hmm, my screen doesn't flicker anymore when it's charging...weird. I clearly remember that it did when I first bought it.
