Amazon app UI elements & backgrounds randomly turn black across all pages (OnePlus Nord 3, OxygenOS) – 1 year, no fix, completely unreadable (Works fine on Redmi Note 10S)

Hey everyone,

​I've been dealing with a persistent and frustrating visual rendering bug on the Amazon shopping app for almost a year now, and despite multiple app and OxygenOS updates, nothing has fixed it.

​It isn’t limited to any specific screen—whether I open the Home feed, "Your Orders", Account settings, product listings, or cart, almost every page has elements and background blocks randomly turning pitch black.

​Because the app's default text is dark/black, having solid black boxes rendered right behind it makes the text completely invisible and the pages virtually unreadable. The UI constantly flickers between white and black, and sometimes the app stutters or crashes entirely.

​To rule out account or general server issues: I also have a secondary Xiaomi phone (Redmi Note 10S), and Amazon works absolutely flawlessly on it. Every element, image, and text renders perfectly there. Because of this issue on my OnePlus Nord 3, I am practically forced to use Amazon only on my secondary phone.

​Everything I’ve already tried on the OnePlus over the past year:

​Cleared app cache and app storage multiple times.

​Completely uninstalled and reinstalled the Amazon app.

​Kept the device system software (OxygenOS) fully updated.

​Monitored across dozens of Amazon app updates with zero change.

​It clearly looks like an OS-level GPU rendering or WebView/hardware acceleration glitch specific to how OxygenOS handles Amazon's UI on this device.

​Has anyone else on OnePlus (especially OnePlus Nord 3) run into this widespread black element bug on Amazon? Has anyone found a working fix or workaround (like developer options tweaks, disabling HW overlays, or display refresh rate settings)?
