That bug report is a run-on sentence. I can't parse all the nuaces of what the reporter is trying to say.
So I have my own theme created and specified for my application. It specifies 3 things; windowBackground, full screen, and no title bar. The splash screen is set to windowBackground color.
Since i use custom theme in manifest and in my app i don't
The splash appears properly, but then right before the QML Window happens it flashes black. I looked at the code and I'm not sure where this flash is coming from. In Qt I also set the Qpallette::window color in case it was QML loading time and no change. It's gotta be happening duribg loadApplication, right?

Hi,
Startup flickering can be fixed by creating custom Android theme where
splash screen image is application background. Custom theme on the other
hand does not work as expected https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-44579.
