if you have stuck or dead pixel turn your lcd, ds or whatever on put it under bedspread or wrap it in a thick and wait for 2-3 days, worked for me on my lcd display and on the lcd of my nds lite, I don't know if it can damage the monitor because its getting very warm, I think if you put it in front of your radiator it should work too. Sry for my bad english:P iam a native german.
£1700 laptop came with some excess paint on the 'L' key, it's noticeable and 3 days of use later got a red stuck pixel, haven't fixed it or contacted dell yet, should I?
i got dead pixels on my camcorder randomly and i had turned it off for about 10 mins(there was 4) and now there is only 1 so i recommend if you have a cam and have the same problem as me just turn it off for a while and leave it.
yea you can fix a stuck pixel sometimes. i had green one on my 19" AOC and all i did is apply some pressure to it with my index finger and it went away :D but im not sure about a true dead pixel soz
i have a "dot" on the screen of my PSP, i don't know if its dirt, but i can also see it even if my psp is turned off. so are dead pixels only seen while the unit is on?
@CubaoBruceLee it's dirt. sometimes, dust can get inside the psp and work it's way to the screen. if you clearly see it when the screen is not on, then it is NOT a dead pixel. if it truly bothers you so much, see if you have a friend that has experience taking PSPs apart and putting them back together. I repair a lot of my friends' PSPs and clean them, too. But you have to be careful, cause if you aren't, you can really mess it up.
got two new monitors in today. one works fine, but the other one has a line down the middle. the tops is always green then fades down to black unless i have a white screen on. then its like a magenta color.
I had a screen with 5 of them, all red green and blue :P It looked really weird, but i was youngh back then, and my dad didn't know what it was, so we sent it back to the shop we got the screen from, and we got a new one! Now i have 2 or 3 DEAD pixels on my omnia (phone) but they are only noticeable when the screen is completely black, they are a little lighter than the rest of the screen.
i had a red pixel on my psp screen. it whas a stuck pixel. after changing the case of the psp i cleaned the screen with a paper napken, and it disapired. so... some phisical presure or vibration can do this. i didn't know about this, it whas purely by accident.
I do have a damn annoying problem.. In etc Counter-strike im getting some sort of black ------- on my screen (I dont know what to call it) that comes from the top on my screen and to the bottom, when im using v-sync, it will fade abit but its still annoying. What can i do about it? (Btw sorry for my english. My first language aint english). Thanks
its high temperature that causes the problem, just like for guys sperm count is lower when they wear tight pants or just like your car's radiator cracks and starts leaking the performance of your monitor depends on how cool you can keep it
I got a MacBook 30 days ago and it had 1 dead pixel. I took it back to the Apple store..and they were nice enough to replace the whole laptop with a brand new MacBook w/ no charge. They really didn't have to do that if they didn't want to though.
well they don't give u a refund if it only has a dead pixel.. the policy is similar to when you buy an lcd.. I have a stuck pixel on mines.. they won't let me exchange for another..
when i had my psp it has a dead pixel, which goes red and blue and green . so i had to get a new one , and now i can see something like a drop of water , 2 of them actually, i don't know wut r those dots.
just to put this out there...if you have any discolored pixel's on an ipod touch, you can simply push hard againt the screen and they will go back to normal, i just did it and it works
Well there is also another solution: Demand a new one and take it back if they refuse.
A dead pixel is a defect. Objectively speaking, you would rather have another unit of the same product that does not have the dead pixel, you do not expect a dead pixel, and most people do not end up with defective units. It follows from this then that if you will pay the same price and gamble on a slightly defective product and hold no one to account if you receieve a sub-par unit, you deserve it. Up 2 u.
I have a pixel that i can only see on a black background. It changes colors depending on which angle you're looking at it from. It looks either red, purple-ish, or blue or white (I don't know if that's due to it being TN?) Anyway, I've tried everything on this and I don't really know what to do. Could just be the unfortunate pixel that I can't un-stuck or could it be a dead pixel?
i have a red stuck pixel the brighter the colour on the screen, the brigher red the pixel is the darker the colour, the pixel gets darker, and when my screen is black, i dont see it anymorecan anyone help me out here?
Found out today that my new iMac has a stuck pixel...
I "massaged" it once... and it was gone for only five minutes, then it came flickering that green annoying light again... Sigh... Running pixelfix software now...
lol...i just tried the 'tap the screen' solution to sort out a dead pixel on my new 26" 1920x1200 monitor n didnt work...so i tried a more rigorous'tap the screen then tap harder and give it a light massage method' and guess what... it worked... rofl : )
future shop in canada has thes disks that quikly change colours i mean blinks fast! and this suposedly unsticks them there is downloads of similar things on the net,havent tried it though..
Hey, I'm Nick Toohill, and I'll personally say that my video does work, And it only works for stuck pixels, but that doest mean that just since your pixel looks dead(black) it might not be. cause there is a difference between a Dead Pixel @ RGB(0,0,0) and a Stuck Pixel @ (1,1,1) so know that, you have nothing to loose. It worked on my friends that had 6 stuck in the middle of his screen and he still to this day will vouch for me and agree it works. and Rubbing the LCD does help, just be Careful!
UGH! just got a screen replacement by Apple and now I have like 2 dead pixels on my MBP! I paid over 2000 for this thing. I'm pissed and I know Apple wont replace it.
hey if u want to fix a dead/stuck pixel use the flashy thing on top of the dead/stuck pixel then while its flashy on it then press at it on the pixel reply if u need help or dont understand
Thanks for the info. My iPod Vid has a one dead pixel and by simply tapping in it with my fingernail the dead pixel on my iPod is gone. It has been restored. =)
I just got a PSP and I'm a little worried because I used to here about it getting a lot of dead pixels after some amount of use. Also the thing rocks, go get one.
My brand new NEC AccuSync 900 CRT has a dead pixel and a red dead pixel only when the screen is red around that area. Nec said they would take it back and reapair it, I told them I would just hold on to the thing. Its got a 4yr warranty anyway.
By applying a little bit of pressure on the surrounding space around a dead pixel, the dead pixel becomes activated. Ive done it myself, now and then it returns but repeat the same trick and it goes away. Tapping also works but personally i found that just by applying a small amount of pressure to the surrounding space directly near a dead pixel fixes it right up.
I tried UDPixel (think that was the name) it flashes solid colors to help you find a dead pixel. I don't know if the fix works because lucky me, I didn't find any on my Dell 1907FP (though I thought I would find a bunch by what I read about LCDs) so I couldn't try the fix.
