}

1. If you still see flicker - remove all your business logic scripts with exeption of the one I gave in this answer. Make testing.

2. If you still see flicker - kill your PhoneGap. Make testing.

3. If you still see flicker - remove all content from other pages - but put in them text 'this is page #' - and add a page-name. Make testing.

4. If you still see flicker - provide here a listing of your resulting HTML. This will be a starting point for reproducing your bug.

Report results of your testing. If flickering stops - tell which step caused it.

I think this debugging session wouldn't give fast results but it would be a methodical movement towards localizing bug.
