Android App flashing

[Shinobi82 0]

Hi,

 

I just installed Emby on my Xiaomi Mi A2 lite with Android 9 and the app keeps flashing right from the start, before I see any sign in or anything. Once the server is loaded up and I try to scroll, it's the same thing. Right now that makes it completely unusable. I hope there is a fix for that.

 

Thanks!

Hi, where exactly does it flash, when browsing the app, or when playing video?

[Shinobi82 0]

It flashes all the time. Even when it's just loading the startup screen (circle animation)

That's strange. I haven't heard of this before. I'll look into what might be causing that. Thanks.

I have the exact same smartphone and I'm also on Android 9 (not Stock Rom,Ressurection Remix). Installed is emby for android from 24.10.2019

At least when the playback of a video is started the App is not flashing, but for everything else, the App hardly can't be used.

Hope this can be fixed.

 

Update:
this can be temporarily fixed by clicking on "disable hw overlays" in System / Developer options, nevertheless after a reboot of the phone the configuration is gone and you have to set it again

Is chrome installed? what version?

Yes, Version 78.0... (newest version)

Ok, we'll try and chase down the cause of this. Thanks.

Can you try this version and let me know if it's any different:

Thanks.

No difference

Do you by any chance know if this happens with the stock ROM?

[FalconX 1]

I don't know, I don't have Stock Rom on my phone. Jellyfin App doesn't have this fault BTW.
