It's by design: the screen is STN passive matrix (hence "flickers" on
refreshing).

Resolved on the T630 I believe.

Hope this helps,

I've also noticed that it seems to affect non-standard themes more than the
ones included with the phone...

True.

High contrast colours contribute more to the problem. If you've ever seen a
Series 40 Nokia with a high contrast wallpaper, you'll know what I'm talking
about.

games mostly.
