Stucked green or Dead Pixel since Update

Hey to everyone...
Ive found one strange Pixel mistake on my screen... If there is Red color the Pixel stays green... but on Black., White ,Green or Blue there is no Problem...
For example hopefully you know the NBA logo... i zoom the Pixture but the Pixel ist still on the Black background... if i scroll the Pic to its blue side the Pixel does not have any mistake but if i scroll it to the red side there it is on the Black Background one green dot....  
And its not the only one down under the back button there is also one which is always green no matter what color my screen has... 
Im extremely sad about it, i hope sony has a solution otherwise ill bring back my device and will think twice before i get another sony device again i had untill now nokia lumia devices and never even a small problem  

Hey, i have the exact same issue after i updated to .290 but Sony says that if we have 2 stuck/dead pixels thats normal and they will only service/replace the phone only if we get a 3rd or more stuck/dead pixel.
The funny thing about this is that my screen was flawless until i updated to the .290
I guess we're stuck in here....

  • 1 dead pixel on the screen

    I seem to have a dead or stuck pixel on the screen. How do I know if its dead, or if its stuck? Do dead pixels look different from stuck pixels?
    Im not to bothered about it as I can hardly see it and I struggle to see it, but it is slightly annoying that you know its there. It looks turquoise colour, but when I put some black over it on the screen, you cant see it.
    Also, I have downloaded the stuck pixel fixer and run it for about 20 minutes, and it doesnt seemed to have done anything.
    Does anyone suggest what to do? Also, does apple have a pixel policy? Like I said im not to bothered by it, but when you know its there it can get a bit annoying. I have to really look for it to see it though.

    Yes thats what I was thinking. Like I said im not to bothered about it and I can hardly see it, but might give them a call and see what they say. Its not acually to bad. I have dead pixels on other things before and they have been much worse. It must be because of the resolution of the screen or something.
    I have to say, the one thing I hate the most and is the most annoying thing out of all technology for me is a dead pixel, esspecially when its right in the middle of the screen. This one is just at the top where the program menu bar is, so its not to obvious. Infact, its probably the best place it could have happend really, if it were to happen at all.

  • Problems with stuck/dead pixels, battery life, ICS, and other problems

    Stuck/Dead Pixels:
    I bought my Droid Razr at around the 21st of December last year. On or around Christmas, I found a bright red pixel on the very bottom of my screen. Unlucky for me, I was leaving for Florida on Christmas Night. I got back on December 31st. Sometime in the first week of this year, I visited my verizon store and told the customer service lady that I had a dead pixel on my screen and had just bought it. But, she told me that she needed the manager to fix this and there was no manager there. For the next week I was busy with school and sports etc and was not able to go back to the store. It was now past my 14 day return period. So I decided, its only one pixel, most people won't notice it anyway. So here I am 5 months later, just starting to discover more pixels dying on my screen. I now have the one bright red one, two light blue ones, and one dark red. I have no idea what the return policy is on defective phones, and the verizon site is designed so that you can't find anything. And an FYI, I have tried stuck pixel removers and other apps, which  haven't been successful.
    Battery Life:
    I have also been finding more problems with my phone. The battery life is terrible when 4G and even 3G are on. I actually see no difference in battery consumption between 3G/4G.  My battery dies  about 4-5X faster when data is turned on, compared to using no data. I know it isn't because of the apps I installed since when I use WiFi, the battery is alright. I also make sure that my RAM isn't above 400MB, so that the processor doesn't use a lot of battery. I feel like I completely wasted my money buying the Razr. Mainly because of the fact that the Razr Maxx was announced two weeks later, which has about 80% more battery. Not only this, but I've seen the Razr selling for only ONE PENNY on amazon over the past month and it still is. I payed $300 on my Razr.
    Ice Cream Sandwich:
    After these major problems comes another one, that I bet all Razr and Razr Maxx customers are still thinking about. When will I get Ice Cream Sandwich? It is very disappointing when you are told that you will be getting an upgrade in early 2012, and are still wondering where your upgrade is 5 full months in. From what I understand, we won't see an upgrade until the end of June, since Motorola has posted on their website that "rollouts" would begin in the second quarter. Even if they release it by the end of June, when will it get to your phone? Maybe another week or two for some people. This is another thing that I feel I wasted my money on. My brother told me to get the Nexus because of ICS, but I trusted Motorola that they would upgrade my phone in a timely manner. WRONG.
    Phone Freezing:
    One more problem that I've had is that the phone will freeze. Usually you only need to turn the screen off and on, but once in a while, you have to completely reboot your phone. When I was coming back from Florida, right as I was about to get home, my phone completely froze. I was about to go return it, but after about 15-20 minutes, it became unfrozen.
    Motion Sensor not functioning:
    Another problem, an annoying one, is that sometimes the motion sensor that controls portrait and landscape mode will just stop working. Some of the games I play are completely dependent on the motion sensor. It is very embarrassing  when you are trying to show off to an iPhone friend and major components of your phone aren't working. They always tell me "why didn't you get an iPhone?". And I really just wanted to have a phone that didn't look like everyone else's, but I guess that comes at a cost. When the motion sensor stops working, I have to shut down my phone and restart, which takes a couple minutes.
    Problems with camera:
    My last problem would be with the camera. Sometimes if you bring the camera close to something, like a barcode, it will keep trying to focus, but never will. Another problem is photo quality in low light situations. It seems like the camera can't focus because it goes from being very dark into being bright because of the flash. I doubt this can be fixed because it's hardware, but a potential fix could be having the option to keep the LED light on during picture mode, that way the camera will be able to focus correctly.
    In Conclusion:
    I really just want someone to tell me how to return my phone for a new one, due to the dead pixels. I also wish I could be upgraded to the Razr Maxx because of the poor battery life on the Razr, but from what other people are saying, that probably won't happen. And finally, if anyone has more info about Ice Cream Sandwich, that would be awesome.

    Well since it's a Manufacturing Error it should Fall under your Warranty if you got one with your Razr. You know you can Call C.S. an they can Assist you with the Matter on it.. Just remember to have another phone so they can Trouble shoot the One that is Experiencing the Issue an when you talk to them go over thing. An they should send you C.G.A.N unless they request you to send it in before you get anther one. If you feel Better going to the Store try that. And Good Luck.. 

  • Stuck or dead pixels

    I'm seeing around 5 dead pixels on my screen is this fixable or do I have to get it replaced and is it under warrenty I know that you can fix it on laptops but since the ipod touch has a hard glass screen you can't really fix it I've only had mine for 2 days

    I spoke with several engineers at Sony and Samsung about this last month and they thought it was hysterical that people believed these apps would work.
    The pixel may come back coincidentally but it is not due to flashing the LCD or some alternating color voodoo, or pressing on the LCD.
    Another Internet myth that continues to propagate. The engineers in fact said all you are really doing is accelerating the decay in brightness/life of your screen running these silly apps in proportion to how long, continually you run them.
    And definitely don't try the "press firmly on the stuck pixel with an pencil eraser" rubbish either - you'll have a nice dark spot around the area to enjoy for your efforts. There are no magic fixes for dead pixels according to the guys who design and build them.

  • Dead pixel or stuck pixel??

    Hi,
    Have just received my Core 2 MacBook, I'll cut straight to the problem.
    There's one problem pixel on the display. A little way below and left of the centre of the screen. The pixel is black when on a white, red or blue screen, however the pixel is capable of displaying green, i.e. when I pass a green panel over it, it appears as normal.
    Does this indicate that the pixel is dead, or merely stuck? Or to ask my question in another way, will the Pixel Widget (or similar flashy thing ) have any effect on it?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello
    I had 6 dead pixels on my macbook pro screen. I was quite annoyed about it.
    After a huge research I did find solution. At least you can try it is for free
    It is a small Jawa applet which flickers and can unstuck pixels.
    I had 6 dead pixels. After using this flickering applet for 10 minutes 4 of the pixels disappeared They were in the center of the screen.
    The last two are placed on the top of the screen. On the top dock where the blue apple is. Fortunately there is no way I know about how to hide this dock. Therefor stuck pixels remain. (if you know how to get this flickering applet over entire screen please let me know, the videos on the website did not work for me)
    Anyway check this website and good luck, Hope it helps.

  • Am i facing a stuck or dead pixel?

    If it only appears when you turn on the camera then it's not a stuck pixel.  If it only sometimes appears when you turn on the camera then it's not a stuck pixel.  If it's sometimes blue and sometimes green then it's not a stuck pixel.  A stuck pixel would always be there, always the same colour, whatever you were doing on your computer.
    Whereabouts is this dot appearing.  The camera has a green indicator light above the screen which illuminates when the camera is on.  My apologies if I'm stating the obvious, but I'm just considering the possibility that you're maybe confusing this with a stuck pixel!

  • Stuck or Dead pixel?

    I recently got a 32GB iPhone 4 from my cell phone provider for free (long story).  When I turned it one, I noticed a white dot on my screen, it's always there, in the same place, but only clearly visible when it is over a darker colour.  I did some research and seems that since it is always the same colour it is stuck, not dead and it will go away after a bit of time but I wanted to make sure.  It's small, about the size of a pinprick but annoying.  I can't upload a picture for you since it is on the screen and screenshots don't pick it up. 
    I hope this is understandable, please let me know.

    The best method to find dead/stuck pixels is to use whole screen primary colors and black. If you have one, you will probably have to learn to live with it.
    Some people say that you can "massage" them back to life. My opinion is that is urban legend. It may have actually worked for one person one time, but as a common practice to restore operation to a dead pixel, well, I wouldn't count on it.

  • Stuck pixel or dead pixel?

    I have a question I'm hoping someone can help me with. I recently purchased a macbook off of craigslist. It was purchased by the original owner in February so is still under warranty. A few days ago I noticed a single dead/stuck pixel in the lower left part of the screen. Not sure if it has always been there and I just didn't notice it or if it just popped up. On a white screen it appears slightly reddish, on a red screen it's not visible, on a blue screen it's not visible, and on a green screen it's black. My first question is whether this would be a stuck pixel or a dead pixel? And secondly, do I have any chance at all of this being fixed under the warranty? I don't have a Apple store in my area or I would take it in there to get looked at, so I'm relying on you guys for support. I've tried using the various "stuck pixel fixer" images on the net that flash colors, nothing seems to work. I tried lightly massaging the pixel, but am not really crazy about putting too much pressure on the display.

    That's an odd combination of appearances. If it's not visible on red or blue then I would assume it's a stuck pixel rather than a dead one (which should appear 'off'/black on every background colour), although it should only disappear in sympathy with the colour on which it is stuck (i.e. either red or blue, not both).
    You can phone Applecare and ask them about it, but I think you'll find they'll only do something about it if you have a certain number of 'pixel anomalies'.

    Best of luck with it.

  • All of a sudden tons of stuck and dead pixels on Retina display!

    My MacBook Pro Retina is just about a year old. When the computer was only a few months old I had the display replace due to stuck pixels.
    Now it's a year old (just 2 weeks out of warranty!) and all of a sudden there are a TON of stuck and dead pixels.
    I mean A LOT: about 30 - 40 stuck pixels (all of them seem to be blue or white, I can't really tell), and maybe about 20 - 30 dead pixels. They are harder for me to see. The stuck pixels make the screen almost unusable though.
    About a week ago I noticed one giant stuck pixel (probably a cluster of 4) but now, all of a sudden they are speckled all over the screen (but mostly in the same area where I found the first one.
    Is my display just dying on me?
    Is Apple going to make me pay for a new retina display (it's 15"). How much will that cost??
    The display shouldn't die like this so soon, especially since it is already a relatively new screen (replaced once already).

    I would go to Apple and ask nicely since it is only 2 weeks out of warranty and was already replaced once.

  • How to fix stuck/dead pixel on my iPad 2

    I just got an iPad 2 and I found out that there is a stuck/dead pixel on the screen. I thought that I could ignore it at the beginning but it just gets too annoying and it grabs my eye when doing anything. So I need to fix it. But first I need to know is it dead or stuck.
    On some colors it appeared in two different colors, it changes each time I look at it from different position.
    So on white : blue and red
    On black : it does not appear
    On purple : red and blue
    On red : blue and red (so it does not appear)
    On blue : black and blue
    I hope I gave enough information. Waiting for your help...
    P.S. I entered on YouTube and saw a video called stuck pixel fixer or something like that and I opened it for like three minutes each day for about three days now, and it did not fix it, do I need to play it for a specific time? Or do I need something else?

    there is an app (cant remeber the name sorry) but it it basical flix up soild images of colour (red,blue,yellow ect...) and it did it at a speed to try and shake the pixel into working agian, sorry i cant remember the name....but its sumit like screen cleaner or sumit like that.

  • Not a dead pixel.....but actually something stuck under the screen

    I just got home from the Apple Store where they swapped out my iPhone because on some phone calls there would be a crackling sound like the earpiece in the phone was blown or something. I got home and was getting it set up and on white screens a see a little dark dot. I thought it might be a dead pixel but when you turn it off and look at the screen and turn it just right you can actually see something underneath the glass. I don't want to be a pain but this is really going to bug me. Should I take it back again?

    Yes I have had this problem
    The first phone I had, had a "stuck" pixel (it was always whiteish/blueish/greenish on any black/dark background). It was only one pixel but they exchanged it.
    The next had another bad pixel and a piece of lint or something...they exchanged it again, though this took some arguing and second opinions. Finally I found the manager who agreed with me unlike the guy at the "genius" bar.
    This one AGAIN had Many pieces of noticeable debris. They exchanged this one right away, no questions.
    Now I'm on my 4th phone haha and it has Several "stuck" pixels. Around 5 or 6 actually noticeable ones. Its really driving me nuts. I want to have a phone with a good screen and have all this exchanging nonsense to be over. It also has another piece of dust you can see on white screens and when the phone is off.
    I brought it in and they said to give it a few weeks and see if it gets better or worse. I said okay and left. It's just too upsetting for me. The thing was over 600 bucks. I'm going to another apple store tomorrow. Hopefully they can fix or replace it with one I can examine before I leave.
    Did they replace yours with a good one?

  • Stuck or dead pixel (blue) on PB G4 high res 15"

  • 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 pixel and something stuck between glass and LCD

    Just got a new Apple Thunderbolt Display (27-inch). As you can see from the photo below there is one dead pixel and some material stuck (that move around a little when you press the screen).
    Apple will replace this if I take it back won't they?

    You can exchange for a new one (that is what I did).  However, using suction cups you can remove the glass screen for cleaning( only held on with magnets).  Of course that will not solve the pixel being out which is unusual for TBD.

  • Stuck on gray apple screen since 10.4.6 update

    My G4 800MHz iMac will not get past the gray apple/spinning gear screen since updating to 10.4.6. I have tried booting into safe mode, reseting xxRAM (don't know the nomenclature), unplugging unnecessary peripherals, and power cycling, all to no avail. The screen stays up for a long time (like overnight), so its not that I'm not patient. Quick note: My 12" PowerBook took a little longer to boot after the .6 update, but seems to be working fine (upon which I write this plea).
    Help please.

    Hello K_OS:
    Welcome to Apple discussions.

    Run repair disk from your software install DVD.
    If you have it on your other system, run the combo updater.
