[Freerunner] Backlight flickering slightly

[Antony King]

I noticed this the other day - screen was set to max brightness and I was 
plugged in to an external power supply (mains, I think, though could have been 
USB). When I disconnected the external supply the flickering went away. Mine's 
an early A5, running SHR.
