Yep that mean you will need to return to the carrier who may or may not think the dust is a good enough reason for another trade. If not, you will need to burn your Apple Care to get it replaced.

Dude, what's the point of swapping your phone if the "flickering" is a software issue doesn't impact the phone's usability?
I will burn my 1 year Warrenty first luckily I'm 5 minutes from store and I been there last week and diagnostic passed I will get them to swap it or send my phone to repair facility .

I will swap it due to dust and the battery draining fast
No, it's a software bug and it likely just happens in certain situations.
From what I understand you're going to swap the phone out anyway due to an insignificant piece of dust. Good luck searching for a perfect phone.
Like I said, good luck. You're looking for a unicorn that you may never find.
But you don't need your phone replaced / fixed. It's a software bug, that is likely to be fixed sooner or later.
I have been following a lot of your threads, and others are right, you are nit-picking. You find every little issue with your phone.
Enjoy it, and stop trying to find issues.
I will get it fix due to dust under the lens and battery life dranning rapid fast
That's a fair reason, to get a phone replaced for.
I haven't even received my phone yet, but I'm starting to get worried, since I don't know whether my dock will be flickering, have dust under the lens, have debris in the earpiece, etc.
(No hate btw)

Let's say I wait till next year for 2017 iPhone I preorder it and get it on launch date I will still find issues
I remember having docks flicker in older iOS versions as well. For some odd reason, they keep returning.
This is why order the smaller size to see no flickering but it haunted me always to the jet black iPhone 7
It's because you're actively looking for problems. Stop nit-picking and just enjoy your phone.
My MacBook no issues so far ,iPad Air 2 no issues so far ,Apple Watch has issues with the phone
You're constantly nitpicking things that aren't really problems. Here is what I found with a quick search.

I can't see how a flickering dock when you switch apps is affecting the performance of the phone, let it go and just enjoy the phone. It still works as it should
A different firmware and software file will be redownloaded. The one on his current computer he keeps restoring from may be "corrupted" or "bad". It's like a truck that crashes with window glass in it. If one is broke, every pane of glass in that truck will be broke. So stop replacing windows glass with panes from that truck.
So you locate the IPSW file - delete it and redownload with iTunes. No need to switch computers.
