    The Official releases are .2267 for Canada and .2243 for the rest of the world.

    Both have been leaks and both have had reported flickering.

    As the Official OS is identical to the leaks the issues will persist in the Official release.
    Stop saying that. U.S AT&T have been pushed .2267 NOT just Canada. I have NO flickering.

    Do people with flickering still have snap10 installed?

    Posted via CB10
    I don't. Honestly, I find keeping CB10 open (in dark theme) aggravates the issue.

    But then again, it is probably the non-hub app I use the most (so hard to blame when it may just be a frequent bystander).

    10.3.1.632 was the most stable leaked OS in my eyes . no flickering at all. every leak after that for the passport starting the flickering. only problem was the pin watermarks on the sides.

    Apologies for any misinformation, when I posted, the information was considered to be good, subsequent events have proved that .2267 is being pushed outside of Canada.

    Doesn't change the fact that Flickering has been reported on both .2243 and .2267.

    If you don't have it, I'm happy for you. Doesn't mean that other are as fortunate.

    So far as I can tell, the AT&T official release at the moment is 1955 not 2267. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

    I've been on 2267 via leak for about 10 days and have had one instance of flickering on my Passport, and one instance of the phone getting too hot and at the same time rebooting spontaneously two times, then returning to normal. Otherwise, it's working well.

    I've noticed majority of the flickering happens when I open BlackBerry Help app!


    It's happened twice consecutively when I tried to create a report and save log snap shot!

    Can't upload the log it's asking for a Incident Number which I don't have, and I'm pretty sure Carriers in Kuwait will have no clue what I'm on about :P


    What do it do?

    So it looks like he knows about the issue, and now only wants to talk to locals who can show it to him in-person.
    No need for us to keep bugging him unless we live up there.

    great and I tried to cancel the update after reading this and one more bug to add: cannot cancel update as the cancel button doesn't work

    should I not install 10.3.1.1556?

    Hardware. I would bet there is a minor difference with the hardware. Something as simple as firmware could be causing this issue.
    It would be interesting to see if there was a common thread, like hardware build date.

    Yup... as I said above, with automatic updates you can't even prevent them from ruining your Passport.

    He probably wants to try it in person and to examine the particular device for its app and settings configurations, if that information is not in the logs.

    One hour on the ATT release today, and no flickering yet. I'm trying to spark it, by opening up all the past problem apps. (camera, pics, youtube, feedminder, CB10) slowly, quickly, all at the same time.

    I guess I should be patient and let it happen naturally.

    Has to be OS related as no one seems to have had it running a 10.3.0 OS.

    The big problem is that the Beta Zone is not being taken seriously by BlackBerry staff. There's no feedback and you rarely get a reply back when submitting a new bug in the discussion forum.

    Must say though that Michael Clewley is awesome. He's always on it when someone sends him info. I've personally emailed him in the past and he has always responded and fixed issues in future OS updated.

    I had the camera and video flicker on the past OS and just like you, after two reboots, never came back.

    Only if everyone is having the problem would I say its purely software driven vs a combo of software/hardware. Tho software to software could be an issue as well, but the common thread is core/native apps making me believe there can be some underlining minor difference in hardware.

    Or BlackBerry doesn't care/test or use there own hardware. None of which I believe.

    Funny how my BlackBerry never has any of the mentioned problems. No flickering whatsoever (even with every previous leak). Volume is still normal, pictures still show as they should.

    Seems made up to me. Especially with the I sold my passport because it flickered comments here. Weak propaganda technique.
