Re: Screen flickering when using camera?

Hi, thisisandrew!
Hmm, that's kind of odd and shouldn't be happening. What model Galaxy Note do you have? Did this just start all of the sudden or after a recent update? Lastly, is this only happening through the stock camera application? Or all applications that utilize the camera?
By the way, welcome to our Support Community!

Ah, I have a better idea of what you're talking about now, thisisandrew. Do you have the Note 8? If you're connected to headphones or a bluetooth speaker, do you hear the flickering sound?

Sorry for the late reply.
Thank you for checking up on this, but I think this issue happens across all phone devices. Its more of a noise static when there's dark areas. You can test this when you cover your camera to give it a darker shadow on the screen, I don't know why this happens to all phones. I even checked on the iPhone and it does it too. It might be because everything's digitalized, and can't get a crisp image in its dark.
I would like to hear your thoughts about this, if you're able to test this out. I just think its more noticeable on the Samsung Note 8 because of the large screen.

Hello,
Yes, still getting the noise static imagery. I just replied above. Maybe you'll be able to test it out yourself, if you have a Samsung Note 8 as well...

I see what you are saying. Yes, I see the same thing on my camera when taking a picture in the dark. The good news is that static noise does not transfer over with the photo. I think that this is just the way the phone renders the image on the screen when looking through the camera lens in the dark. I am using an iPhone 7 Plus by the way.

Hey, thisisandrew!
I just wanted to swing by to see if you had any other questions for us. I also have an iPhone 7 Plus and can confirm what Chris said above.
