some time flicker in android

[AdamGerthel]

Does this happen in the demo repository as well? Can you be more specific? Maybe record it?

As this is not something that happens in the demo, I suspect that this is specific to your codebase. I suggest that you try to reproduce it in an isolated environment (Expo Snack for instance) in order to figure it out.

I should mention that this issue occurs specifically on Android, and I'm using the React Native CLI (not Expo).

Expo or CLI doesn't matter in this case because the implementation does not have any native code. You should be able to reproduce the issue in an Expo Snack.

I'm also getting a flicker in my project (Expo SDK 53, New Architecture) for android device specifically, can't recreate it on simulator at the moment. Will try to recreate it in an Expo Snack.

We received an email this morning for the first time from a customer experiencing this issue on a Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra running Android 15.
At the moment, the same flickering does not occur on other devices running Android 15 that we’ve tested.
