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 :'(.

My phone is a GoMobile 504.

Additional information by [MCPE Mod] Auldrick

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.

To users searching for this bug

There are currently two unrelated bugs having similar symptoms of dark shadows:

  • MCPE-39439 describes 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.
