Hello,

I recently bought the Nexus S android phone just over a week ago and noticed some problems that have just arisen with it. Whenever I load up Twitter or facebook (these are the only two applications i've noticed the problem with thus far) the screen constantly flickers on and off and the only button I am able to register is the home key. Interestingly enough, if I turn my phone to horizontal view, the flickering stops. Is this a firmware issue, or hardware issue?

Could anyone shed some light and help me out here? I still have another 5 days to bring the phone back to my provider as I have a 14-day guarantee .

thanks.
