Is this a glitch with Samsung Galaxy S4?
So I have had the Samsung Galaxy S4 for about a year now. Apart from the battery life being drained by me, it really is a great phone. Zero complaints about it, until now.
I am not sure if this is because of the 4.2.2 update that recently went active on my phone or if this is something different. Before I go and take it to a Samsung help desk at Best Buy or go to my local Verizon Wireless store, I figured I would see what the rest of smart phone users might say about this.
Here is my issue; anytime i go to text, or peruse on Facebook or Instagram or Twitter, or honestly whatever I am doing, my screen seems to flicker a little, like it is dimming in and out. I have adjusted my brightness, which I always kept at low and on auto. I turned it up a little bit from the low and turned off the auto but it still keeps happening.
If anyone has any advice it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance as well.

Go into settings then "About Phone"
Tap "build number" quickly 7 times. This will enable developer options.
Go into developer options and check "Force GPU rendering" and "Disable HW overlays"
This should stop flickering of the screen. If not play with those 2 settings be enabling one or the other.
A factory reset is your *second to* last resort. If that doesn't fix it you have a defective panel and you need to order a new phone.
