I was ready to toss the spot--though it's one of my favorite Alexa devices. Driving me nuts, the screen flicker. Hard reset, moving to a new location, just couldn't fix it.
SOLUTION FOR MY FLICKERING SPOT: Before I tossed it, I thought I'd try the power supply for from the Echo Show I have in the Kitchen. Not expecting much, I plugged it in. And what do you know! No flickering, even at the brightest level! So the obvious take away is that the power supply or cable are bad. But I swapped the power supply with the Echo Show (hard to keep all the echo products straight), and it booted right up, no flickering. So everything is working, except I have a black power supply for the white spot, and a white (found out these two words together are banned--appropriately) power supply for the black Show

I'm not sure how many people still use their echo spot. Mine started flickering and most of the comments about it were fairly old... Nothing worked on mine until I contacted Amazon and all I had to do was click on that I wanted them to call me and they fixed it just like that. It kinda creeps me out that they were able to do it over the phone perse, but at least it's fixed. Just wanted to post it so if anyone choses to, they can go to help on their echo, click on contact Amazon, follow the directions for them to call you, and TADA!!! they are able to fix it.

@Ami Morris Ami, that worked! I did as you said didn't even answer the phone and it fixed it, very weird. Thanks for the info!

LOL. Crismac is obviously being sarcastic. The first answer from Ami Morris is obviously BS. No wait, I take it back! Mine got fixed when I just thought about calling Amazon support. Once I did the flickering stopped. LOL
