When I enter my password in the app store, lines begin to flicker across rows of the keyboard.
Here is an example. This has happened on my last two visits to the app store. The first two or three times there was no problem. This is the only context in which I observe the flickering keyboard. Is anyone else having this issue?

iPhone 5, iOS 6
This happened to me today for the first time. A new app was downloading, while I started searching for another one. Looking more like a software fix, and I will patiently wait for the 'patch'.....I seem to remember similar things when I got my iphone 4 in the first week (Pain of early adoption I guess)
Absolutely, I have also noted that few time (not 100%) while entering password i App store...and specially when you switch from Alphabets to Numeric....precisely comes while you are keying in your numeric characters. Does it sounds familiar?
iOS 6.0.1 is out with a fix to the flickering keyboard !!!
At last
Apple has just released iOS 6.0.1.
This update contains improvements and bug fixes, including:
- Fixes a bug where horizontal lines may be displayed across the keyboard
other fixes:
- Fixes a bug that prevents iPhone 5 from installing software updates wirelessly over the air
- Fixes an issue that could cause camera flash to not go off
- Improves reliability of iPhone 5 and iPod touch (5th generation) when connected to encrypted WPA2 Wi-Fi networks
- Resolves an issue that prevents iPhone from using the cellular network in some instances
- Consolidated the Use Cellular Data switch for iTunes Match
- Fixes a Passcode Lock bug which sometimes allowed access to Passbook pass details from lock screen
- Fixes a bug affecting Exchange meetings
The issue is solved with a new iPhone iOS 6 update that came out today. Its iOS 6.0.1 it fixes a few bugs and that is listed as one of them.
Im getting a flickering problem with scrolling or selecting that I never had before 6.0.1? I wonder if it is a software or hardware problem.
If it didn't happen before but is happening now then it's a software problem. Try reinstalling the OS and open a bug report with Apple if that doesn't resolve it.
Same thing here, but mine just did it in safari too.
Hi. Your problem is called ghosting. This could be caused if you have replaced the screen and the screen is faulty or when the person who fixed the phone never put the parts back together properly. This has happened to my 5s. And when we opened it and put it back together again it was fixed.
Thank You
