iPhone 11 Pro [Resolved in iOS 13.2] iPhone 11 Pro (Max) screen flickers in photos app when Night Shift (or True Tone) and View Full HDR enabled

Are we going to pretend this is a non-issue?

I replaced phone and I really doubt two phones would have same exact issue.

You mean your replaced one doesn't have the issue?

UPDATE

I went to iStyle (it is reseller, because I am from Czech Republic and we do not have an Apple store here (yea f*ck 🙃 it )) and I left the phone for a complaint, after 4 days they told me that it was a SW problem and that the device diagnostics didn't detect any HW problem.

I am still thinking about this problem, what causes it (HW or SW). I will probably contact Apple's official Czech support. 🤷🏼‍♂️
So we will see what happens.

But I hope iOS 13.2 (as overlocked says) will fix it.

Any update on this? I’ve replaced my phone once and still have a case open.

I have the same flickering problem. But I never use Night Shift.

The problem resolves itself temporarily if I toggle True Tone off and on again, but eventually comes back.

 

[obargy]

Yeah we’re still waiting for a software update

I’m on 13.2 beta 2 and it’s working great. No flashing anymore.

No

All three phones replaced have same issue.

Turning off true tone fixes issue.

I’m kinda shocked that we haven’t heard about this issue more publicly. Makes me think a lot of folks don’t have True Tone on or don’t use Auto Brightness.

 

[overklocked]

13.1.3 is out. Someone should update and let us know if it fixes anything. I want off the beta train.

 

[BeachDad]

Updating now and will test to see if screen issue is resolved. Also having a lot of dropped calls so hoping this addresses that as well.

 

[fokmik]

So its sw issue 100% since im on beta and everything is working great. I wonder if 13.1.3 fix it

 

[VSMacOne]

I just tried it again and it seems to be fixed. True Tone ON, auto-brightness ON, HDR on and no flickering. Hope it is fixed for good.

 

[BeachDad]

Just updated and still flickers. Hoping for 13.2

 

[overklocked]

Just updated and still flickers. Hoping for 13.2

Just updated and still flickers. Hoping for 13.2

So im staying on 13.2 beta

well now I’m really confused.

 

[Man on the moon]

13.1.3 Still has issues

Hate to report.

 

[fokmik]

well now I’m really confused.

VSmacone i think its on 13.2 beta as well...and also he is not experience this issue
BeachDad updated to 13.1.3 and still flickers, he is hoping and waiting for 13.2
Im on beta and like VSmacone?? im no longer experience this issue

 

[overklocked]

VSmacone i think its on 13.2 beta as well...and also he is not experience this issue
BeachDad updated to 13.1.3 and still flickers, he is hoping and waiting for 13.2

Yeah, I updated to the beta. Issue gone.

 

[fokmik]

So I recomand to users if they can tolarate this issue until ios13.2 they should since its a sw issue

 

[rgyiv]

Noticed this yesterday when I was showing coworkers pictures from my vacation I'll live with it and hope for a software update.

 

[waquzy]

I'm having the same issue here(11 Pro) It's really annoying me, turning the View Full HDR off seems to have fixed it for me though, but it might come back as people have reported

 

[SteveJobs2.0]

Without looking into this, I think that the problem is an overly aggressive Automatic Max Brightness setting that is used on OLED screens to limit the peak brightness. In the case of iPhone Pros, Apple might have made the setting too aggressive in order to reduce battery drain.

Collected my first iphone yesterday and returned it on the same day. My iphone 11 screen flickers and freeze at setup. At one point, the display fades and zoom out slowly into black screen.
