Toshiba Dynadock U3 Display flicker

This issue was supposedly solved with the DisplayLink_7.3M1 version of the driver, according to http://forums.toshiba.com/t5/Computer-Accessories/Toshiba-Dynadock-U3-occasional-flickering/td-p/384.... However, this absolutely still happens with version 7.4 of the driver.
For me, it happens on both displays. It's often and disruptive.

Hi horacenelson,
If it is enabled can you try disabling Optimize for Video in the Dynadock taskbar menu?
If that doesn't help please try these steps:

  • Toshiba dynadock U issue

    I am having issues with the Toshiba dynadock U (PA3575U-1PRP.  When I installing the drivers for the docking station and click on the Internet, it takes forever for the homepage to appear.  When I turn off the Windows Firewall, that internet works great.  Is there an issue between the docking station and Windows Firewall?

    I think I am having pretty much the same issue with my dynadock U. Out of nowehere, whenever I try to open any internet browsers, they freeze up and run slowly, but it is only on my external monitor. If I go to the settings and switch the screen to my laptop monitor, it does not have the issue. Did you ever solve this issue, and if so how?

  • Displaylink in Toshiba Dynadock U3 stopps working after a fews mintues

    I also have opened a Thread in the Displaylink supportforum, but they dont find any solution.
    I have buyed a Toshiba Dynadock U3 ( and i am very angry about this, to play beta tester for this s**product!)
    it works... a couple of minutes.. than the monitor hangs up... reconnect power and it works also.
    on usb 2.0 it works fine, without any error...but on usb 3.0..it lost graphics after 10-30min...i have installed the lastest usb 3.0 driver and the lastest displaylink software.. i have reported the error by displaylink with there support tool.. but they dont find any solution....
    Now it is time for toshiba to make me happy and find a solution for this products... its not a finished products.. its a betaDock..not more...
    i use it with a Vaio VPCSA4 Notebook ( Ati and Intel HD Graphics)

    > on usb 2.0 it works fine, without any error...but on usb 3.0..it lost graphics after 10-30min
    Do you mean that you have no problems using the Dynadock U3 if you connect it to the USB 2.0 USB port of your Vaio notebook?
    Did you check if its an notebook issue? Did you test this with other notebooks/computers?
    Is power saving disabled for USB 3.0 in your notebook? Usually this can be done in Win 7 power options.
    I also found an Dyndock troubleshooting guide on Toshiba US page:
    http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/bulletinDetail.jsp?soid=3312000&pf=true
    Check if it could be helpful.
    Here are also the drivers:

  • Lumia 830 display flicker

    Hii everyone,
    I am facing a display flicker issue on my Lumia 830 on zero brightness setting (upto brightness at 20%)which is easily noticeable in the dark & also slight flicker when set to auto-brightness mode similarly in low -light or dark environment where the display automatically adjusts itself to minimal brightness setting.
    As per several threads which I came across the display flicker is universal among all the LUMIA range,starting from 520 or 625,720 to the 1020 or the 930.
    Is this a firmware issue which can be neutralized by firmware update or is it an display's hardware problem.
    Please enlighten me on this issue.
    Note: Display is working absolutely fine on medium to high brightness levels,no issue at all.I love the display on my 830.
    Hoping for solution from team NOKIA/MS
    Thanks in advance. 

    Thanks mate for your valuable feedback.
    I will surely try a soft reset or a even hard reset maybe.But currently I am on the "fake" Denim firmware which MS rolled out with the LUMIA 830.The real Denim update is yet to hit my 830 in my region.
    So i think updating first to the real denim might eliminate this flickering problem.If not ,then as you mentioned will go with a soft or hard reset.
    If the issue still persists then will surely proceed for replacement as the device is under warranty.

  • Display flicker

    i have a late 2012 mac mini with display flicker, iv tried installing the firmware update, but its saying its not compatible? Is there any other way to stop the display flicker?

    Does it do this all the time, or say only after Sleeping?

  • Dynadock V Display attached hangs

    Hi
    Running Dynadock V with latest displaylink drivers. Laptop is Portege R700 Win7-64.
    Tosh dynadock utility is v 2.4.0.14.64
    Got it functioning fine; works well, but every 2nd day (roughly) the display attached to Dynadock hangs; just leaves whatever
    was on display there but no control. For example if the mouse pointer was on Dynadock display it is still there but no movement. The pointer is active on the laptop display.
    The laptop display is still fine and I can control the laptop fine, so R700 has not hung.
    Only fix is to disconnect power from Dynadock (when I do, laptop sees no usb video device and switches all windows to
    its internal display) and repower. Dynadock comes up OK and I move Window panes across.
    * Is there a fix?
    * If not it there a way I can force the dynadock to reset/reload via software/keystroke?
    Thanks.

    Solution. After messing around with this for way too many hours, I've found a fix. Maybe it can help someone else.
    In Windows Explorer, I found the application that puts the icon in the tray. In my case (Windows 7) it was located at C:/Program Files/TOSHIBA/Dynadock_II/TosDockApp.exe.  Double clicking that put the icon in the tray, but it would be gone the next time I rebooted.
    It needed to be in the Startup folder. I'm guessing that once upon a time it was there and got removed for some unknown reason. (a Windows update?) Right clicked on the application, clicked "Create Shortcut," clicked Yes to placing it on desktop. Then used the Start button, All Programs, and found Startup in the list. Right click, Open. Maneuevered the window so I could see the desktop simultaneously, and dragged the shortcut from the desktop to the list of files on the right side of the Startup window.
    This solution has survived one computer restart, so I'm hoping it will last.
    By the way, copying the application and pasting it in the startup folder didn't work. I had to make the shortcut.
    And Toshiba, if you're listening, I'm still ticked off. Someone in Customer Support should have been able to help me with this. Or it should have been on a troubleshooting page. I've been struggling to find a solution to this problem for months. It wasn't hard -- just not obvious to someone (me) who doesn't work with this software everyday.

  • Mac mini (late 2014) display Flicking/goes Off and On

    Hi everyone!
    Well.. i can say that, this is my first Mac computer and i already have problems. I have read a lots of comments and i have seen that many people experienced this problem with Mac mini, like display corruption, not property colors, flicking, display goes off and back on... or just standing on sleep and not turning on. (like Mac mini 2012 or 2011.. i have read about same issue..) so whats really happen?
    So, from the peoples comments i tried possible solutions:
    SMC Reset
    I have Reinstalled the OS X Yosemite (complete HDD format)
    I have changed the cable
    (Nothing works)
    Some detail about my connection:
    I have Mac mini (late 2014) i5 2,6GHz dual-core, 8GB ram, Iris Graphics (Intel), 1TB HDD
    I have connect it via miniDP to DP > to > Dell UltraSharp U2713HM
    My following issue:
    -Screen goes Off and On without reason (mostly happens when i connect my iPhone i have noticed, or maybe just impression..)
    -Screen goes to Sleep without reason while i'm on computer (this normally happens after a few off and on screen flickers)
    -Image corruption/distortion (after this display goes off and on, or just remaining on sleep.. like not detected
    I hope someone can help me with this problem, i just bought it one week ago and i don't know what should i do, because as well i have read that even i'll change it, it can have the same problem.
    Waiting or a response,
    Best regards.

    Update: I'm coming back with a possible tip for fixing this issue (I hope Apple Stuff will notice this.)
    So, how i said in the previews message.. the Image corruption / and going Off and On the display happens mostly when i'm connecting the iPhone. Theory tested a few times, and take a guess.. it's true.
    When i'm connecting the iPhone, the monitor goes crazy.. for some seconds, turning off and on.. and sometimes Image corruption, then coming back like nothing happened. Because i found out this, i was making more tests with the iPhone.
    First, erasing the disk and reinstall the OS X again. Everything worked perfectly, until i was connecting the iPhone. I got directly Image corruption and Screen goes Off and On a several times. After this is happening, and you'll unplug the iPhone and put it again, you may not receive again Image corruption or Screen to go Off and On, but after a restart when you'll connect it again, you will receive almost everytime.
    So.. after this, i was testing further. I have Paired my iPhone with iMessage and FaceTime, to see if can be a possible issue there also. True again!
    Receiving messages from iPhone to Mac / Sometimes display goes Off and On
    Receiving a Call via FaceTime to Mac (from your iPhone carrier) / Image corruption / Screen Off and On
    After a day of test, i have realise where is the problem. "iPhone connection/Mac"
    So, the cable it's good (connection miniDP to DP), by Surfing and by running other Apps i have no problem (at least until now), the only problem what cause the Image corruption and Screen Off/On for several times, it is only because of the connection with the iPhone.
    I hope is someone there from Apple Stuff that will take this as notice to solve this problem. Because it is 99% software problem, and i hope it will appear soon enough an Update/Fix.
    Thank you!

  • BootCamp Windows 8.1 Display flicker early 2015 macbook pro 13

    I've used the Boot Camp Assistant to install Windows 8 on my early 2015 MacBook Pro 13.  After running windows update and installing Windows 8.1 my display will flicker upon login to the windows partition.   That said I do not experience the flickering screen each time I login to the partition, it is only once in a while, and I've not been able to isolate exactly what happens that causes the screen to flicker (broadwell driver?).
    Has anyone experienced this also?  Have you found a method to update the drivers or keep the display from flickering?  I've re-installed the most recent drivers using Boot Camp Assistant before and after the updates had taken place and still experienced the display issue.
    Again, it is not every time I login to the windows partition only when I seem to need it most...

    Please use Bootcamp Assistant. The new BC drivers are available for 2015 models.

  • Display flicker when connecting external monitor

    Hi all,
    Sad to say my first post is regarding a problem I'm having with my new (re-furbished) MBP 15". It's also my first MAC in years.
    Starting this past weekend, when I have my Dell 20" LCD hooked up via DVI to the MBP, the display on the MBP will start to flicker, go blurry, show colored lines, etc. Basically, it looks like any other laptop display when they start to go bad.
    So, I removed the monitor, ran the HW diagnostics, and found no problems. I ran the laptop by itself all day and had no problems.
    Last night I hooked it up again and the same thing happed. The connections are tight and the display on the Dell LCD is perfect. It's on the MBP that freaks out.
    Anyone have any suggestions??
    Thx.

  • Toshiba LCD 46G310U display goes dark

    I have a Toshiba 46" LCD model: 46G310U that when first plugged up has a perfect picture on all inputs. However after a few seconds to a few minutes the display goes dark with a horizontal line across the screen about half way down. The horizontal line will fade out after 25-30 seconds leaving the screen dark(back lights still works). I have replaced the inverter board, the T-Con Board, replaced most of the larger capacitors on the power board, I have even replaced the cables that connects the T-Con board to the main board. If I unplug the tv and leave it unplugged for several minutes when I turn the tv back on, the picture is back and purfect for the first few seconds or up to a couple of minutes, then the screen goes black again. Please any help would be apprecieated. Thanks.

    You may want to find an authorized service provide to repair the TV.

  • Upgrade to 10.4.7 causes severe display flicker

    I am running a 15-inch MacBook Pro connected to a 23" cinema HD display.
    Since the upgrade to 10.4.7, the laptop screen starts to severely flicker after approximately 3-5 minute, rendering it unusable. Moving a window around (even on the 23") will cause large amounts of flickering; the windows on the laptop screen are duplicated for a split second, and then stabilize until the next display refresh takes place.
    The problem disappears after sleeping and waking up the machine, only to resurface after another 3-5 minutes.
    Re-installing the 10.4.6 backup fixed the issue. The problem came back after re-upgrading to 10.4.7, and went away again after downgrading to 10.4.6 again.
    Is this a 10.4.7 issue, or should I have my machine repaired?
    MacBook Pro 15-inch   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   15" MBP 2.0 GHz w/ 2GB, X1600 with 256 MB

    Same problem at my end since i got the MacBook Pro 15/2.16Ghz. On connecting an external display the main screen flickers after 3-5 mins, goes purple (similar to the pics someone posted earlier) and then goes black. Sometimes it comes back for a few mins but eventually both displays freeze - the internal one goes black and teh external one retains whatever picture was on it but no mouse/kbd control is active. I opened a case with Apple 3 days ago and have been troubleshooting it with them. My next step is to revert to 10.4.6 and see if the problem ges away. An interesting twist to this is that my boss has an identical (arrived the same day) Macbook Pro running with an identical external display attached and does NOT have this problem. The difference between our instals is that i run some additional apps such as Ms Office & AdiumX.

  • Toshiba Satellite P500 "Display Driver stopped responding and has recovered."

    I have a Toshiba Satellite P500/XEO PSPGSA - 1XE08L Windows 7 Home Premium (64bit) system.  I’ve received the following random message Since I bought the computer back in 2011--- “Display Driver stopped responding and has recovered.” Since I have bought the computer I have returned it to Harvey Norman where I purchased it from for them to fix the issue. They have reformatted and whiped the computer a couple times aswell as going to the toshiba website and installing the latest drivers. I also have done the same steps as Harvey Norman.
    The computer has been sent back to Toshiba also, It was overheating so Toshiba has put a new CPU into the computer to fix that issue and also the hard drive had a fault sector so Toshiba installed a new hard drive. When Toshiba had the laptop they tried to fix this issue with no result. 
    This issue is more annoying then anything because it happens often (a few times a day) and some of the time when the driver fails and the screen stays black, the only way you can fix this is a hard shut down by holding the off button. 
    I have looked at all the threads and have seen a lot of people having this problem. I have tried all the ideas and people's ways to fix this issue but nothing has worked. 
    This problem needs to be solved and I don't want to hear that I need to reformat my computer or restore it to factory settings like tech support have told me to do because both myself and Harvey Norman has done this and IT HASN'T Fixed the issue. This issue can't be good for the computer..
    I am very dissapointed, after nearly 2 years of having this laptop the problem hasn't been fixed and Toshiba has no idea how to fix this issue. This laptop cost me over 2500 dollars and I have had more problems then I would have had with a 500 dollar computer. 

    No reply from Toshiba yet? Great customer service. 
    Anyways this is a snapshot of my screen going black and then coming back with a message popping up stating that the Display Driver has stopped responding and has recovered. 
    As you can see the window that I am in turns fully black after the driver recovers, I have to close the window and re open it. This happens many times a day.
    I also am getting the display Driver crashing and the whole screen turns black and stays black, no matter what you do the screen stays black. I hit Cntrl + Alt + Del and nothing works making me shut it down by holding the on/off key
    I do a lot of business on this computer and use it for all purposes. Due to this issue, every time the screen goes black and I have to hard restart the computer I lose all my work. Due to not knowing when this will happen I am having to lose a lot of work and start all over again. 
    This is ridiculous and Needs to be fixed. I am a Toshiba Customer and I have spent my money for the best of your products and I am very disappointed with the outcome. There has been no help, I have had nothing but issues and the customer service and support for your company is atrocious. 
    In future I will no longer be buying Toshiba and I know a lot of other people who have seen this issue and had the same problems with Toshiba support that they won't be using Toshiba either.
