    Hi guys,

    I've noticed a little issue with my G1S LCD and would like to determine if they all have this issue or just me.

    On this website: http://www.lagom.nl/lcd-test/#invpattern

    Press next on the image till you get to 4a, do you notice any flickering?

    I have a G1S-AK048G with a 1680x1050 native display if it matters.

    Would appreciate any help :)

    I just had a seizure. Did you try display calibration?

    Does that mean you had a similar effect?

    How do I do the display calibration? :confused:

    Thanks.

    I don't get anything on 4a, but 4b only.

    What does this test mean anyway?

    I just thought I had a dodgy display, but I guess all G1S have this flicker.

    Thanks for your input guys.

    I'm not sure what you mean by flickering, but from what I'm seeing on mine. There isn't any noticeable flashing or flickering.

    It is not noticable if you are using the tweak from the other thread (remove splendid 50/50 brightness, contrast and 0 gamma)

    The problem I find with those settings is that everything seems dark.
