flickering favorites widget

[bagou01]

Hi,
i had this problem before upgrading to kitkat (after which i did a complete cache partition wipe as well as hard reset), and i have it now again.
It's hard to explain but i have a "favorites" widget on my home screen (defaut launcher), which takes about half the screen, and at least once a day, when i go to home, it starts flickering for like 15 seconds... the 9 thumbnails switch on and off randomly...
anyone else has this issue ?

It may be the widget itself. Have you considered auditioning a different widget to see if the issue persists?

well i'm kind of a "cleanlyness freak" and i hate installing widgets if there's already one able to do so
