But PSP actually runs at 60 fps. If you want games to run at 30 fps, you can enable frame skipping, and set it's value to 1.

Most of the games I've tested cap their fps at 30, so it doesn't really matter at what rate PPSSPP runs - it only matters that half the frames are blank on those games. But, setting the frameskip to 1 does fix the flickering my end, although it isn't as smooth as using auto frameskip. Simply duplicating frames once or twice (to fix the odd game that runs at 20fps) will allow to benefit from both the auto frameskip and the constant frameskip.

Another option would be to have an algorithm that matches the frameskip to the game's fps cap. Meaning each game that runs at 30 fps will have a frameskip of 2n+1, 20 fps games will have a frameskip of 2n, etc. It won't be as fool-proof, but it won't be as hackish as the former fix.
