Old post, but to those it may apply to: Try a live linux USB and see if you can get anything on there. Linux is typically less fussy about showing you data. Details on how to do this later, if anyone cares.

Something small that may or may not help a little:

Go to accessibility - extra dim. Turn that to lowest intensity, then turn screen brightness to whatever you need.

It makes more screen elements pure black = OLED off. Not sure that helps much when everything else is flickering, but fewer flickering pixels sound good.

If someone has a 2nd phone with a working slow-mo camera, we could analyze this and apps and test what works!

Just bought a used 4a for GOS only. This sucks tremendously.

Google hiding the better options behind a millionaire paywall is pure abuse. We don't want anything special - just a God damn phone. It shouldn't cost more than 20-50 Euros like it used to. But those don't exist anymore. I don't need a 6 million mega pixel cam. I don't want a fingerprint sensor or any other bullshit. It's a phone. Ideally it can play MP3, that's about it.

Even a used low-end 4a costs several HUNDRED Euros, something the non-rich save up a year or two for, and then I find out it rapes our eyes?

WONDERFUL

Too bad GOS doesn't run on anything else. Can't find any cleaner phone that works as a phone than Pixels with GOS. But this means it's effectively impossible to look at.

If GOS could fix this (if it's even possible on this hardware), it would add a lot of value to it.

Right now it's not usable.

I thought going from LCD to OLED would be an upgrade - what a perfect marketing lie!

Consensus seems to be that oledsaver doesn't work. Any more experiences? I don't want to mess with proprietary apps that demand full permissions. But it's the only hope right now.
