About a month ago my screen started flickering at low brightness. I tried turning off hardware overlays in the developer settings but unfortunately it did not help. But the thing is that I can dimm the screen like crazy using for example twilight but if i use the normal android slider then below a certain threshold it starts flickering no matter what twilight is doing.
Is this a good question?

The LCD screen flex cable is worn out and not well connected with the motherboard. This may cause by overheating, moisture or dropping damage.

do you have a damaged screen? if so it's probably because you cannot adjust the AMOLED display and backlight independently.
OLED displays increase or decrease voltage to each diode for the brightness and do not require a backlight unlike an LCD which uses the backlight to shine through the liquid crystals to produce color. The problem here is the S7 Edge DOES have a backlight to reduce screen glare in bright environments. So when your screen dims it reduces the voltage to the OLEDs that are arranged in a series. Components connected in series are connected along a single conductive path, so the same current flows through all of the components but voltage is dropped (lost) across each of the resistances.

I have the galaxy a7 2016 and I was having the flickering issue for a while and was quite irritated about it.. It flickered when on low brightness and also when I turned on the mobile.
To fix it I just downloaded the app called ( Oled saver) from the play store ( . )
And it got fixed.. This app is live saver.. You can try it too and I guarantee you that the issue will be fixed.
It has fixed my issue.. I downloaded it last night and there was no more flickering..
