Things that I’ve tried so far. I did everything that @bogdancovaciu suggested. it didn’t worked. I tried another live booting Manjaro xfce also. still the same issue. then i installed windows and thought to update all the drivers and everything from the scratch using Lenovo website and Radeon software both. Still the same issue. Also if i open BIOS it still exists.
Is this a hardware issue or something? I don’t think it should be a hardware problem as the screen looks normal one sec and some flickering happens the next sec then it returns back to normal again. Please help if you can. Also the flickering has increased since the morning now.
