im using samsung galaxy note 10.1 and when playiing minecraft pe ver 6.1 it flickers,does anyone know how to fix this?

Me too!
I also get this behavior on Samsung Galaxy S3, at least versions 0.5.0 - 0.6.1.
It is easy to reproduce: play some time,then power-off / power-on or switch to another app.
Start again MCPE, turn left or right about 180 degrees, and the screen flicker appears.
It also appears when the S3 goes itself in sleep power mode.
It happens sometimes for no apparent reason, maybe when some other app awakes, not sure about this.
Sometimes it disappears when looking upwards or downwards then reappears when looking in some precise direction.
Workaround: kill app (press home button, task manager, force exit), start again MCPE, load world, ok able to play on.
Minecraft Demo (v0.2.1) doesn't show the behavior.

Could it be related with the Quad-core of the GS3 ?

On my Galaxy Tab 10.1, I don't see this issue but my Sons do on their new NatPC X2 Tablets.

When they are playing multiplayer there seems to be one point that if one of them looks at it, then screen seems to shake from side to side very very quickly..
I can stop this though by moving the view to the side. But looking at the same point causes it to happen again.

Fully closing the game and restarting seems to bring things back to life.
