a few graphics glitches after 4.3 update

yes it's mainly on the lock screen, unlocking doesn't always work immediately + some artifacts appear briefly in the upper zone of the screen or in the unlock code boxes.

Also, and that's new, the screen (unlocked now) shows some latency to update the brightness. This is reproducible.

I'll attempt a reset of the device and report back if things don't change.

iPod 4G, iOS 4

Did you try a restore? I got rid of that symptom once with an older iOS. It happened right after an upgrade too.

a reset solved the lock screen glitches here, but the latency with brightness on auto is still there, so I turned that off. I wouldn't be surprised if the lock screen glitches were caused in the first place by the brightness auto setting anyway. Had already a few issues with that on 4.21.

Same here. I made this thread about it earlier. I thought the brightness thing was normal but I guess not. Mines does that also.

@DigitalBlue good job with the pics and video links in the other thread. As said it wasn't that bad here and I described how I solved it. But some seem to still see the glitches after a reset. Anyway your pics + the number of reports will make Apple have no other choice but acknowledge the problem and hopefully release a patch as soon as possible. But guys do yourself a favor, I'm almost sure that the brightness auto setting is the main issue behind it all, so just deactivate it until the real fix comes from Apple.

Yes, graphics glitches on the lock screen. Also on the wifi icon in the status bar. It has the appearance of an animation where one frame out of ten is just junk data. I haven't tried a full reset yet. Otherwise apps are stable and look fine.

Had minor graphical issues. Some when the screen was locked other when it wasn't. Mine took place when music was playing In the background
