5800 XpressMusic - Red Pixel in Display

Hello there!
Well guys, I'm really sad with what happened. I bought my 5800 2 days ago and now I realised that there is a Red pixel (It's really the size of 1 pixel) in a part of my screen. It stays there. When I use the camera, the red pixel stay there too! I tried to format, hard reset, soft reset, everything, but nothing fixed the problem. I'm going crazy!
What am I suposed to do? Anybody have a tip?
Thx a lot!

Well, they are generically called "dead pixels" but "dead" can mean "stuck" or "off".
When stuck, it can be stuck in any one of the primary colors which is more often the case than being totally dead.
It's considered "dead" because it does not respond to control.

22 in display red pixel flickering

I have an older second hand 22 in cinema display connected to my 1.25 ghz powerbook. it uses an older round adc/dvi adapter. anyone know why or how to solve constant red pixels/lines flickering horizontally on black backgrounds?

Hi Byron,
If the normal display on your powerbook is OK, then it won't be the graphics card.
If you can, try hooking the ADC display to another computer (preferably one with an ADC port). If the display functions OK, then the problem is not within the display.
That leaves the adaptor and the connections between the powerbook and the display.
You need to check that all physical connections are clean, intact and tight. Check for loose wire connections by gently wiggling the cables where they insert into plugs (if it's loose, you will see changes in the display).
Check that there is no play in the DVI output on the powerbook - plugs can exert a lot of leverage on this socket, and it is possible that there is physical damage.
Depending on what you find, you may be able to sort this out yourself. However, a lot of these plugs are not user serviceable, and the Powerbook DVI output certainly isn't.
Cheers!

5800 xpressmusic vibrates but not turn on

I have had my Nokia 5800 Xpressmusic a few months now. I took it with me on a plane to France (from UK). Before taking off I changed the network selection to manual to avoid automatic connection to the French network and incurring high charges.
I recall the process did not go smoothly. I turned the phone off. Once in France I could not turn the phone on again. It vibrates but no lights or display turn on.
I have tried removing, replacing battery, SIM, mem card and fully charging but no change. I think something does go on in the phone because the battery does drain. I have also trid connecting to PC but the PC does not see it.
Can anyone help?

With your 5800 turned off,
Press and hold [Green] + [Red] + [Camera] Keys
Turn phone ON, and keep pressing it until you see the Nokia Shaking Hands Logo
security code is 12345
all data will be lost doing this
if this fails return device to a nokia care point

Flashy red pixels

Hello,
I'm having a really weird problem. I was working on my macbook pro 15 inch, late 2008, and I went to eat. When I came back, it was on sleep mode. I turned it on, and then, there was alot of Flashy Red Pixels but only on Dark aera on the macbook display!
It seems that all the Black pixels were replaced by flashy red pixels!
I re-started the computer, and you know at the beginning, just before the apple with the grey background, my screen flashed in red!
After I Closed my screen, and just hit the computer once ( lol I know, but it was my last resort ) and my problem is fixed! No more red pixels....
But I am scared that it will happen again...
Did this hapened to anyone of you? What can you suggest me?
Thank you!
Marco

What's odd is that I'm having the same problem on my Macbook Pro 2.33 that started around the same time this message was posted. I've turned off all my unnecessary start up files, but no help. The Red pixels get worse as the machine heats up.
My motherboard went bad in the first 3 months of having the computer (circa 2007). They replaced it for free (warranty), and the only thing I've done since then is upgrade the HD and replace the left fan that went bad.
I've taken the machine apart and tested all the connections. Nothing helped. There are a couple threads out there for this problem with no real suggestions in sight.
I can't remember when 10.6.2 released. The monitor is off from the very start, so it would have to have been firmware if it's not hardware. The left edge of the screen has an indented reddish pixel running down the side. Extreme blacks are red.
It really makes using the computer impossible being an artist.

Update Nokia 5800 XpressMusic software

Hello,
I update my Nokia 5800 XpressMusic through Nokia Suite on my personal computer.
Step 1. Get Started and Step 2. Back up was successfully done. On Step 3. Install, I follow the instructions. Then my phone screen turns white. Then the logo of Nokia and its version was displayed on the screen. Then it shut-down/turned OFF by itself. A message on my Nokia Suite(on my PC) says "Your phone is restarting" and an instructions below says "Take a look at your phone. If it asks you for your PIN code, time and date, or your Nokia account details, type them on your phone. You may also need to choose the Nokia Suite (or Nokia Ovi Suite, or PC Suite) USB mode on your phone. Then wait for the installation to continue.".. So I wait. Then a follow up message show that says "If your phone does not restart, remove and re-insert the battery, charger, and the USB cable. Then switch the phone on.".
So I follow the instruction. I removed and re-insert the battery, charger, and the usb cable. Then I switch the phone on. BUT the problem is.. it doesn't turn ON. Still off. When I long-press the POWER button, it vibrates but it doesn't continue to turn ON. I hear continues pop-up sound on my PC when the USB cable was connected. But still nothing happens.
Your immediate advice is highly appreciated on this matter. Thanks in advance.

Problem updating Nokia 5800 XpressMusic

Hello,
First excuse me for my bad English.
I have just updated my Nokia 5800 XpressMusic with the USB cable and plugged into the mains. At the end of the update, a window told me that I could unplug my phone and nothing more since it does not turn over: just a vibration but no screen display. I removed the battery and did another test and still nothing. Is there a solution or should I return it to the VAS.
Thank you for your help.

Hi, Did the phone complete the hard reset? I.e. after the phone is completely started up, it prompts for a country selection? To do the reset, the phone must be turned off first, then hold the relative buttons together / simultaneously while turning on, until prompted for the country selection.
If you managed to complete the hard reset, and your problem is still occurring, then please keep me updated as to how you resolved it, just incase I need to also try it
Thanks.

Single red pixel

I was on iPhoto (with the display black and not white) and noticed a single pixel somewhat towards the middle of my screen that wasn't black, but red. With a white background (like the one I see now as I type this) you can't notice the change. In fact the pixel only shows red against anything that is darker than white. I tested it against a green background and it was still noticeable, but it becomes unnoticeable once it is against a white background. Is this a dead pixel? And if so the why is it red and simply no color at all? Anything I could do to try and fix this? This macbook is about 2 weeks old, but is custom so I can't get it replaced. The only thing I've done is installed more ram. I tried to restart the macbook but nothing changed. Any way to fix it or any possibility of getting a repair? I don't want this to be a permanent scar on my brand new machine. Thanks

What you are experiencing on your screen is a 'hot pixel', TFT displays consist of millions of transistors and sometimes they don't all work in a display.
A hot pixel is stuck to one color, while a dead pixel lacks a color (or is all black).
Most manufacturers do a replacement if you've got more than five hot or dead pixels in a display. I've understood that Apple decides from case to case, but I doubt one is enough.

Disturbing red pixel mosaic in dark areas.

In PowerMac G4 MDD with ATI radeon 9800, the LCD display shows red or blue pixels in a places which should be dark.
If there should be black in the video, in the screen, there is some kind of cubical fractal pattern of red pixels in opacity of 15 %.
Like this:
http://koti.welho.com/tsuonio1/LCD-DISPLAY-PROBLM.jpg
When the same displays is connected to old B&W G3 black shows out black, and if the display is connected to be a PowerBooks external display, the image is fine.
So my suppose is that the problem is in graphic card...
...any idea what might be the problem and how to fix it?

I have very similar issues with red and green pixels, dots and lines that seem to halo any change from light to darker areas of the screen, often fringing those gradations. It is especially bad in any movie that I play. I have a PMG4 dual 1.25Ghz with an upgraded ati radeon 9600 pc & mac edition card running a dell 30" lcd. I've done all the usual suggested, but I am seeing this online as a widespread ati/30" phenomenon as well on ACD 30" and Dells both. About every report I've seen about this is about an ATI card. The only "cure" is to reduce colors to thousands which I don't like and won't allow me to run iPhoto slideshows etc.
I hope someone has an answer, I have a few days before returning these two items and coming up with a new solution.

You must use mail.btinternet.com for outgoing server. You can retain your old incoming server for your own domain, but must use the BT one for any @btinternet accounts.
The following is my understanding based on use of the BT Yahoo mail service since September 2013. New users may be using the new BT mail portal - I don't know how this differs.
The BT outgoing server will block any outgoing mail sent from unauthorised accounts. This includes those in your own domain. The fix for this (as I understood it) is to add these accounts as sub-accounts to a primary BT mail account. The server will then relay them. The mail portal has an Options dialogue that lets the user manage mail accounts. Set up another account for each [email protected]
In Outlook, your domain accounts will need to set outgoing server to mail.btinternet.com and to authenticate using your @btinternet.com credentials.

Line of red pixels

I got a MacBook Pro 15" less than a month ago and today a streak of red pixels appeared in the middle of the screen. Anyone else has had this problem on the new Mac? I have an appointment for next Monday at the Genius Bar, I would like to have some feedback, perhaps is a defectous line of screens?
Cheers
PS

I sent it in for repair once already. I don't remember what they did; something with software. Nothing huge, because when I got it back my invisibleSHIELD case was still completely intact. I guess I should just send it in again? Think they'll just give me a new one?

Is there a dark-red pixel in the middle of my ipad 2 screen, Apple Staff ignored it with rude manner.

Is there a dark-red pixel in the middle of my ipad 2 screen, I 've just it for 6 days. After that I went the store (Thailand) to turn it, they told me that it's a dead pixel and Apple won't replace it to the new one - there must be more than 3 to claim. How can I do?
The store guy told me I should go Apple Service Center. The Center's staff kept my ipad and told that replacement depends on Regional office at Singapore.
She also blame me that "Why don't you look for dead pixel before you brought?"
What !!! Dead Pixel is the fault of Apple Factory, but she said like I'm so stupid to brought a dead-pixel ipad.
"If you want me to do something on your case call to Singapore by yourself" she said.
After I called to Singapore, I found myself the staff there treated me so bad and confuse.
1. The first guy at Singapore said "Because you 've just brought it for 6 week you can choose between replacement or refund, but leave me your numbers we will call you back."
2. Shortly, a rude guy called me - said to me about Bright and Dead Pixel - then said "It's not our authority to replace ipad for you, you paid your money for our dealer (Store in Thailand), so you must ask for resposibility from them. "
What !!!!! He treated me like I'm not a customer. Store and Care Center in Thailand told me it ups to Singapore, but Singapore told me not.
Who lied? However, I'm still Apple Customer. Whatever country I brought it, I paid for Apple product. Where are thier responsibilities?
I hope, Apple U.S. is my last resort.

Given that you can return/exchange it for any reason within the 14-day window after you bought it, you shouldn't have any problems.
Do you live near an Apple retail store? That may be your best bet. It certainly worked for me: I ordered mine online and when I noticed an air bubble embedded in the glass, I brought it to my local Apple Store and 15 minutes later walked out with a replacement. No fuss whatsoever.

Strange, red, pixelated images

Hi,
I recently purchased Lightroom 5 and I've been really enjoying it so far.
One issue I've found however is that occasionally Lightroom creates a weird, red pixelated effect on edited images in library module. I've posted a develop view, and library (loupe) view example below. It tends to occur on under exposed images that I've used noise reduction on. Sometimes, this persists in develop module too.
Develop module: http://i.imgur.com/G7hROKv.jpg
Library module: http://i.imgur.com/nSmp72T.png
Any ideas about what is causing this or how to fix it?
FYI, it exports fine.
Thanks!
M

Frank,
Actually, they were all similar enough to be able to crop, lift and stamp, so the viewable versions are all in working order. Problem solved. At this point, I'm just seeing if there are any other answers as far as fixing the Masters? I do not have any known backups of the originals before they were corrupted. The only thing that comes to my mind is to export all of the cropped versions and then to reimport them as Masters, but I really don't know what I would be doing. I mean, I know how to do that, but don't know if doing it somehow diminishes the image quality. The strange thing is, when I export the version, it is almost 4 times the size in MB of the Master (after exporting the Master). I don't fully understand image size as it relates to image quality, but I was always under the impression that the larger the file size, the more data stored and the higher the quality of the image. Therefore, a 5MB JPEG is of higher quality than a 2.3MB JPEG for example. Since the originals were JPEGS, I would assume that by exporting versions of the Master, I would be compressing an already compressed image? I don't really know, so I am not going to do anything about this unless someone can shed some clear light on what it all means, and what the ramifications of these types of actions would be.
