Read if you experience issues with screen flickering

Some Pinebook's experience screen flickering while running this kernel version, which is solved by upgrading to newest release version. 

To update your installation navitgate to /usr/local/sbin and run the following update scripts: 

Code:
sudo ./pine64_update_kernel.sh 0.6.2
sudo ./pine64_update_uboot.sh 0.6.2
sudo ./pine64_update_package.sh 0.6.2

Run all three and then reboot.

I've got annoying flickers on the screen of my new Pinebook. I noticed them right after I had turned on my Pinebook :/ So, then I tried to update as it is recommended above but that didn't fix that issue. Any suggestions? 
PS At least, I've managed to increase the sound
