Thanks for your answer.

The bug is still occuring with Chrome mobile v53.2785.0.124
There are no specific steps: we just open the jsfiddle link and see that the black canvas is blinking.

We tested on 2 devices:

- Samsung galaxy core II (SM-G355HN), Android 4.4.2, GPU Mali-400MP
- Wiko Rainbow v8, Android 4.4.2, GPU Mali-400MP2
Components: Blink>WebGL
Thanks for the report!

I was able to repro on a Galaxy Core 2 (SM-G355M) with Chrome 53.0.2785.124 with the jsfiddle link that you provided.

It appears to be fixed though in Chrome Beta 54.0.2840.50.  The black canvas is no longer blinking.

We should figure out whether any of the WebGL conformance tests would have caught this, or whether we need to write a pixel test for it, and run it on certain devices. This regression was pretty unfortunate.

How is this? We are currently developing a game using phaser and it has a flickering bug.

We encountered this in:
Chrome 55.0.2883.91
Android 4.4.2
Huawei Honor 4C
