Yeah I've been too sick to do too much so it shouldn't be to much of hassle to transfer.
They did mention the blue haze and how that's normal. I said yeah I got that but it doesn't bother me but the flickering when reading does. I don't want to get a migraine from it.
The May Day guy was young and clueless didn't even know where to find the Help app or what a CRT flicker is but the Kindle Specialist was great he knew exactly what a CRT flicker was and found it humorous I describe it like that because LEDs don't flicker!
I agree I think it's bad firmware because it only happens in Books, Not docs or any other app. I know I am sick as a dog right now but I am not seeing things. If I was I would see it in Docs and other pages. It doesn't happen on the white theme, it happens on Sepia and the night theme.
I stuck a blanket over my head and then you could really see the flicker. It was flickering what I was talking to the Kindle support but not while the May Day window was on. If I go to docs no flickering. This just started today I would have notice it sooner before it started I notice the screen would go black before it loaded my Books.
