Hi Guys I got me a Nexus 7 3G Prod Date was March 2013, I thought the screen flickering wouldn´t be an issue anymore. But I seem to have it...

Just wanted to check if anybody else has this special issue of my nexus too.

It´s occuring when I´m going online with 2g connection and the brightness at its lowest (or very low). Everytime there´s data connection and I am loading a webpage for example, the screen begins to flicker occassionally more or less. Even when im going to homescreen while loading a page in the background the flickering is visible.

I reflashed the 4.3 Android but that did not help.

Already sent the Tablet in, and Asus changed the LCD part but that did not help either.

Could it be software related or should I send it in again and hope they fix it this time for real?

I am not standing the fact that I searched the internet and can´t really find anything about this special fault of my nexus which makes me wonder (just screen flickering in general but not when being online with 2g)...
