A reboot doesn't solve the problem because if I reboot when the screen is shaking/flickering, you will see the "Surface" logo is shaking/flickering too! I'm 300% sure that this is a hardware problem.

This might be hurt you a lot, as I am experienced with the SP4. Just don't worry! It is easy enough to fix this.
First, In eed to ask you something!
- Are you running a more than 10GB program and screen is shaking?
- Does that need more Graphic Processing Unit (GPU) to support?
I am sure that you say YES!
What you need to do is:
- Shrink Volume: You need to shrink drive (C:)
- Create New Volume (Whatever you wanna call it)Link Here :

- Copy and paste or reinstall the program that you run and screen was starting shaking to New Volume you created (This might be drive "D:" or "E:"...)
- Restart PC! And Enjoy that program
In my opinion, there might be Speed of ROM when it is nearly full, it works slower than your program need (Simple Explain!). It is because of the logical circuits running in many algorithms needed for this SSD works not properly (Search Algorithm).
->This you need a new Partition to run Search Algorithm faster!
->It can be about the GPU is not enough speed to support the program!
This might help someone. And it is too long to write this. Also, sorry for messing up this page :)

2017-08-10T05:08:26+00:00 Hey, I have the same problem and it seems started after I've got Creators Update and all firmware updates after it. Will full reset help in this case? I don't think it is hardware failure, because when I start input (touchscreen or touchpad scrolling) the screen goes back to normal.
It turns out that it's definitely a hardware issue for me. It gets worse and worse the longer the tablet is turned on and I noticed that the boot display also shows the jitters before the OS and drivers are even loaded.
Here's what mine looks like after being on for about an hour: youtube link
I finally broke down and submitted for a repair order. It is costing me $450+tax to get a replacement and I have to ship via FedEx in my own box and bubble-wrap. I figured I could buy a new computer for $1200 or so; or spend the $500 to get a replacement with a short warranty... Hope it works out.
