I too had this flickering issue. Surprisingly it was there in in the stock XXJW4, but not in XXJVU. I'm on slim ICS currently and i'm still having it, but hardly to notice it most of the time in SlimICS. It is Clear in apps with white background, and hard to see in the black apps! I got lot of flickering on CM9 as well as in ICSSGS.
Also if there is lot of flickering, just switch off the display and turn it on, flickerings will disappear for some time.
Also Semaphore reduced flickering in cm9

Very slow ROM download ~8 KB/sec
Use the Torrents, they are much faster...
I have flickering issues. I think it is related to the Automatic backlight. I've change my light sensor filter to:
Window Length 5s
Reset Threshold 800lux
Sample interval 1s
It is still occasionally faintly visible but much improved.
Mmm... I have tried this settings and flickering is still there.
Can flickering issue be related with screen refresh rate?

Ok i think i start understanding how to give a kmsg.
I made this test: put in my 2gb sd card connect phone to computer and copy one folder on it
then a repeated the same with the 16 gb sdhc card
both kmsgs here
2gb card (working): http://pastebin.com/MWgQu543
16 gb sdhc (not working): http://pastebin.com/Rjit19Zh
hope it helps
OFF TOPIC:
if anyone cares, apollo merge has been reverted because it lacks pngs and other drawables for many resolutions.

Another bug. Look at this image:
Can you see the strange white background in the Twitter app? i think this is related with the flickering bug too.

Please just choose your words more carefully in future. Saying this ROM or all ICS ROMs are at fault just isn't cool.
On topic, you mention others have the issue but you are the first and so far ONLY person I have found with the problem.
Which kernel are you running? If not stock cm9 then we can't help.
Lastly, have you installed each app one at a time to see if the problem occurred after a particular one is installed?

No, because it doesn't happen on a stock rom...

Yes, I installed my apps from the market, not using titanium backup or something like this. As I said, the flickering was there before installing any app. And it happened also with the stock kernel (now I am using Semaphore)

Do you over clock or does it happen without any OCing? You mention its less when not OCing I think? If so then I wonder if this could be a hardware fault from miss configured OC at some point?

It happens without overclocking. It is less noticeable if I use "Smartassv2" governor instead of "Onemand".

Have you OCed in the past that may have caused instability or damage? I'm thinking this is either hardware failing in CPU or screen.

I have never overclocked over 1200mhz. If I flash a Samsung rom, cm7 or Miui (gingerbread) the flickering issue dissapears. It just happens on Ics. I also remember that in Dark Knight 3 rom flickering issue was fixed. I remember posting this in Dark Knight rom thread and another user was facing the same issue (flickering in all ics roms except Dark Knight 3)

As far as I can tell this issue is unique to YOUR device.
Why don't you go to the Dark Knight 3 thread and research what it was that fixed this problem and report back with your findings?

Reporting Bugs
You are allowed to report bugs only in this thread. Before reporting a bug, please make sure you are running as stock as possible. This means no custom kernel, no custom framework modification, etc. If you are using any of the above modifications, please flash the rom again to get rid of the modifications before reporting.
- Grab a logcat right after the problem has occurred. (Please include at least a few pages of the log, not just the last few lines, unless you know what you're doing.)
- If it is a random reboot, grab /proc/last_kmsg. (Do not bother getting a logcat unless you can get it just before the reboot. A logcat after a reboot is useless)

No, you don't need to.
You'll have the option to use your microSD card as /sdcard in Settings -> Storage -> Menu -> Storage configuration. Android by default (as HTC started it) uses the microSD card as /sdcard and internal memory as /emmc. Samsung came along and uses internal memory as /sdcard and microSD as /sdcard/external_sd. We need to standardize in CyanogenMod, so starting with this nightly, we follow the standard HTC has set, but we also give users the option to swap them if they want. When it comes to Samsung devices, users expect internal SD as /sdcard by default, to the setting is set to swapped as default.
TL;DR: Nothing changes.
The nightlies are designed to be used with the kernels that come with it only. The default preference to swap is stored in the ramdisk in the kernel which is lost if you switch kernel (and so internal SD mounts as /emmc).
