  • Three dead pixels! Help! T420s

    Just noticed two more dead pixels on the right hand side of the screen. I have warranty up until 2015 and the warranty type is next day on-site.
    Also, the fan is always on fast and makes a lot of noise. A whirring noise to be specific - engineer coming on Friday. 
    Can anyone advise me on what to do next? Here's some other problems that I am facing:

  • Dead pixel - please help!

    Hi,
    I recently bought a 5800 and it has a dead pixel on the screen. I was really looking forward to getting this phone and I am now quite disappointed (and disgusted by the service I was offered here in Malta!). I returned it to the shop where I bought it and was told that I have to have at least 5 dead pixels for me to be able to change it. Is this true?
    It is still under guarantee as it hasn't even been a month since the date of purchase. They tried to feed me so much bull (including: the laws do not apply for Malta and that i had to go back within the first seven days EVEN THOUGH it clearly says on the guarantee that I have a 30-day period from the date of purchase to take it back).
    I really need to know what Nokia's policy is on dead pixels. I paid extra money for a 2-year guarantee from an authorised Nokia dealer, and yet it seems I do not have any rights at all :/
    Thanks

    Thanks for your reply
    On the phone's user manual, the warranty at the back says that it is for "EU countries". Malta is in the EU and therefore the warranty applies to us aswell. Also, the guarantee (issued by Nokia's local agent) pretty much summarises Nokia's warranty.
    But when I spoke to the (incredibly stupid) person who works there, she said that I have to have at least 5 pixels and that I am not eligble to having it replaced.
    I understand that it is not Nokia. I've had Nokia phones before and I have never encountered any problem, which is why I opted for a Nokia again. I just wanted to check the facts because they keep telling me that Nokia  will not accept a replacement of the phone with less than 5 pixels :s

  • IPhone 5 Dead pixel or Dust? Need HELP!!!

    Hi guys,
         I'm getting paranoid with the one tiny black dot on the screen of my one month old iPhone 5, I don't know if it is a dust/speck or dead pixel inside the screen. I can notice it with white backround or any light colored background. I am very familiar with the stuck pixel, but this is the first time I encounter suspected dead pixel. Can anyone tell me how to determined/differentiate a dead pixel or dust inside the screen? I also check the screen on sleep mode, as far as I can see there was no dust on that area.
         Additionally my iPhone has a rattle near the rear camera like clinging sound, how true that is it really normal? They say it's the camera autofocus mechanism??
    Thank you,

    Alright. Whenever I tilt the phone on any side the dark dot sometimes change color like green, black, red. I wonder why i can't even see it right in front display (like normal holding the phone when reading texts or emails). I can barely see it when tilting to different angles. What do you think it is? Sad to say there was no apple store in our country to dropped by and to check my phone by an expert ot technician.
    Appreciate your help dude..

  • Help need to know dead pixel replacement

    I'm getting a new screen put on next week for a dead pixel on the lumia 800 but I found scractches yes on gorilla glass and was wondering does the glass get replaced Sewell or is it just the screen because I saw a video on YouTube of a screen replacement on lumia800 and it was all on one the screen glass and touch bottoms help does the glass come with it ????

    Hi JoeHeat,
    Thanks for posting and welcome to the forums.
    The spare-part for the Lumia 800 screen comes as one unit consisting of the screen, digitizer and the glass. So as long as the repair is being done by an official Nokia Care Point or repair centre replacing the screen also will mean new glass.
    Hope this helps,
    Kosh

  • Could some one help me with dead pixel on my screen?

    I bought my Thinkpad X61 only a few days back. I opened it and found that there is one dead pixel in the middle of the monitor. Is there any possibilty that Lenovo would fix this? I know that I have to pay 15% of the purchage amount in order to return this peice. I would be really happy to return it without any costs. I talked to the service people. This is the worst service ever I had. No one is replying. One girl told me that the dead pixel goes away in a few days and It would be okey. It looks like if you order a laptop online, they send you laptop with defective pixels.

  • Macbook Stuck/dead Pixel Help

    hey i just bought my macbook 2 days ago, and now i notice 2 pixel are dead or stuck, i cant really tell. one of them are light blue colour on top when background is white. and the other one is yellow over white background.
    Can anyone please tell me what should i do ?? iam not to sure, iam worries that this is dead pixel that cant be fixed >.<
    thanks for ur concern
    regards
    Erwin.

    Those are stuck pixels from the sound of it. If they were dead, well you wouldn't be seeing any color other than black and you wouldn't be able to do a thing. Now with stuck pixels you can supposedly fix these some of the time, but don't quote me on that as I've never have had to deal with them. That said there appears to be a widget you can down that might fix your problem....

  • Dead Pixels? Broken Screen? HELP!

    Hi everyone,
    So about 3 weeks ago I bought a brand new 8G iPod touch.
    I use it almost every day, and I've never had a problem with it.
    Recently, I started getting battery issues which weren't drastic but were obvious enough to bug me, but I let it slide because the amount of time I used the ipod wasn't affected by it.
    Just this morning, I was using it, and after I was done I placed it on my desk. Without any use between the time I had put it down, and when I came back for it (About 3 hours), A patch of dead pixels or SOMETHING about the size of a fingernail formed. I got pretty annoyed at this, but I didn't move it anywhere else, because I plan to take it to the store tomorrow and ask about what can be done.
    Though, another hour or so after that happened I checked it again, and the patch had gotten bigger.
    This kept happening until the patch became a line which strewed across the whole screen.
    After that, the screen began to flicker and pulse like a broken TV.
    What the heck is going on!?

    I've only had it 5days!!

  • Scattered dead/stuck pixels! help!

    Hi
    Recently i noticed one dead pixel on my screen (shows up as bright white against a normal white background). Since then i have seen a few more white and my screen has become littered with hundreds of grey pixels. They're not really in the way but the problem is definately worsening. At this rate i won't have any live pixels left in a few months.
    Are these grey pixels dead? They definatly look different to the white dead pixels.
    Will i have to replace the screen?
    Thanks
    Iz

    They are noticeable on light/white backgrounds, yes? The pixels seem to glow a bit brighter and some even are darker?
    I've noticed this as well. From what I've read, it seems you have a good amount of dust getting trapped behind the glass on your screen.
    If you're really worried, take it into an Apple Store near you, or call Apple yourself.

  • How can I fix Dead pixels on The iPod 4g

    Hi
    I have a Problem. My iPod have on The screen many Dead pixels. How can I fix this because I have My iPod for 2 and a half years so I have no gaurante. Pls help.

    You cannot "fix" dead pixels. All you can do is replace the screen. See:
    If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
    Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
    You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
    Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
    To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.

    There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task. Start with Google to search for these.

  • Satellite 5100 - Question about dead pixels. Is it really dead pixel problem?

    Hi,
    I've got Satellite 5100-603. There have been some dead pixels on display. I don't know is it really dead pixel problem or not because the black area seems to be behind the screen. When i move left and right sides, the black area moves left and right sides too (as if the black area is behind the screen pixels)! And i can tell that all pixels are working OK when i look from the right and left sides of the display (because the pixels that seems to be dead, changes at different looking angles).
    Are there really dead pixels or is it some other problem?
    Is there anything that i can do about it?
    For info, i am using my laptop for 2,5 years and there is no warranty of course...
    Thanks for any help..

    Hi
    to answer your question I will try to make a simple description the layout of the TFT display.
    I'll go from the front to the back.
    In the front is a tough plexi-glass like layer to protect the screen from harm and the user from glass in case the TFT should break. It is also prepared in a way that will soften the reflections from behind (that does not go for the newer SuperBright screens).
    Behind that is the 2 layers (at least 1 of glass, probably both) that hold the actual matrix of the pixels.
    Behind theese 2 are a very complex set of layers that take care of the backlight. It consists of various numbers of films that should spread the light from the singel FL-tube evenly across the complete screen. Not a easy task if you ask me!
    Sometimes, physical stress or dirt can make 'blotches' appear on the screen and they are in fact either dirt on the backmost layer or marks on the same. If there is dirt or marks on it, that will 'shadow' the light that comes out from it and show dark spots on the screen. They are quite different from defective pixels.
    The defective pixels do not change with the angle of view for example.
    I think you cannot do anything about this except changing screen. The construction is very complex and sensetive.

    No, I did not find a way to fix it.  Went to Apple store to be told that the phone is dead and I would need to purchase a new phone.  A little frustrated with the fact that it is Apple who caused the phone to not work!
