Corrupted textures of items and blocks - black shadows
Without apparent reason the textures of items and blocks are converted into black blocks.
Begins with items and finally make the world unplayable because all blocks are black, ,even torches and all blocks of light :'(.
Some reports say that this only happens near the player.
Reported OS versions include Android 6.0 and Android 7.1.2.
Reported GPUs include Mali-400 MP and several Adreno models.
There are currently two unrelated bugs having similar symptoms of dark shadows:
MCPE-39439describes a bug that causes unusually dark but still gradual shadows. It can be worked around by momentarily placing a torch or other light source in the shadowed area, or by any action that would cause a lighting update such as breaking blocks above the shadow to expose it to the sky light.- This bug causes fully black shadows with sharp edges, even right next to a light source. Placing a torch does not correct this problem.

There are 4 unrelated bugs having similar symptoms of dark shadows. When commenting or attaching pictures/video here, please be sure you are experiencing this bug.
- This bug describes the entire world being dark or hazy after return from the nether or end, and light source blocks being the only blocks that are lit, with no light spreading from them.
MCPE-58182describes light not being updated properly across chunk and section ("sub-chunk") borders when areas are reloaded. Light spreads from sources, but the spreading cuts off sharply along chunk lines.MCPE-39439describes unusually dark but still gradual shadows.MCPE-39368describes fully black block faces, even right next to a light source. Light does not spread into these areas even when new torches are placed.
The glitch was resolved by updating my game-mode to Creative.
I won't talk, or technically write, more than what I've already done. You can see the pictures...
Whenever you leave the end dimension via end portal, the lighting of the overworld will break. It appears to be the same kind of lighting used in the end (dark, greenish, pale), and even with the sun out the world is oddly dark.
How to reproduce:
- Set the time to day
- Set your spawn on the surface
- Go to the end
- Leave the end
- Observe odd lighting in the overworld
- Relog to fix the lighting issue.
Expected results:
The overworld should have its normal lighting, instead of this strange end light.
Windows 10 PC Bedrock v.1.17.40.23 Beta has this problem, see screenshots. This could be the bug described by MCPE-39368.

It's true. Effects to me too. My tablet is Lenovo tab 2 a7-30hc Android 5.0.1 GPU is Mali-400 MP
It begins slowly with shadows. Like shadows of trees. Then the blocks and then all the game worlds turn black (it means this effects all worlds) but I didn't re reach to item part :-D
Does this issue only happen after resuming the game?
Windows 10, 1.9.0.3 has a similar bug
I have seen the Win10 smooth lighting bug, but I'm not sure it's the same thing. This report seems to say that the darkness spreads farther over time, which I haven't seen in Win10 using 1.9.0.3. The Win10 bug is also easily correctable by placing a torch or other light source in or near the dark area.
For those experiencing this bug, does placing a light source in the dark area make the lighting look normal again, even after you then remove the light source?
No, torches don't solve the problem. This bug is ilke a overpowered version of the bug that you mentioned.
Affects 1.8.0
Jonathan Hanzel I don't think it does, I think that's the smooth lighting bug in shadows. This problem affects the tops of blocks exposed to the sky, and placing a torch in the shadow doesn't correct it. If you have an example of that in 1.8.0, please provide a screenshot.
Were there are lighting glitches in the trees, try placing a torch next to it to update the light level
I am seeing this on Xbox One 1.9.0.3. I have been playing split screen, and the bug comes and goes randomly for one player at a time. It didn't seem to happen very often when I first created this world last week, but now after a few days of play time it is nearly constant. I have attached some examples of how it appears normal on one screen and bugged on the other. Also, I tried disabling all of the graphics options such as smooth lightning and the problem still occurred.
Also happened with me
Samsung J2 prime is my phone
Can reproduce on Google/Huawei Nexus 6P, Android 8.1, Minecraft 1.9.0.3 beta.
My symptoms are the same as
MCPE-39428: sometimes, when entering a world, all blocks are black (in inventory, in hand, and in the world). Items and mobs render normally. This happens about once in 20 times.Exiting and reopening the world fixes the issue. Backgrounding and then resuming Minecraft also fixes the issue.
I securely can say that this bug is not the legendary illumination bug that all we know of ever because in some cases even the torches are converted in black blocks.
This happens to me, I play Minecraft PE on a LG Harmony, and its a Adreno model and runs Android 7.0
And the version of Minecraft I have is 1.9.0.4
I also get this bug in my Galaxy J3 2016. Im in the latest (non beta) update
I was able to get three LG Android phones with this issue, their specs are:
G6, purchased in 2017, running Android 8.0 Oreo, using a Quad-core Qualcomm (MSM8996) Snapdragon 821, with an Adreno 530 GPU
K10, purchased in 2016, running Android 7.0 Nougat, using a Quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 210, with an Adreno 306 GPU
V20, also purchased in 2016, running Android 8.0, Oreo, using a Quad-core Qualcomm (MSM8996) Snapdragon 820, with the same GPU as the G6 I tested
All tested with 1.9.0.3 and 1.9.0.5
Verizon Wireless Ellipsis8 tablet also affected
