Hello all. I've been looking for games for my relatively new x51v, and among others, I found Pocket Slay. It's a neat game (warning: addictive!) but on my x51v it has a problem. After making a few moves, the bottom 1/5 of the screen slowly flashes bands of color, in time with the animation. I contacted the author, and he is not familiar with VGA devices, but he says he is using standard APIs, and wondered if the problem might be with my unit.

Can any x51v owners try this and let me know if this is a common WM5 problem, or something wrong with my unit? It's very obvious, but I can send you a small video I made that demonstrates exactly what I am seeing.

I'm running the recent A06 ROM, but this problem has been present since day one. I have hardware level A00.

Thanks!
