Who else has dead pixels?

I just got my first sprint TP2 not more then 2 weeks ago and it had a dead pixel. They only really show up when the screen is all black other then that you cant notice them unless its a dark image or its a very bright white.
Now I just got my 2nd Sprint TP2 and it also has some dead pixels, is this normal for the sprint TP2? Just wondering if any one else has this issue did Sprint Use different LCDs for their version.
God I hope not.
Here is another fun fact I did a hard reset and turned them both on at the same time the older one starts up like 4 seconds faster....why would this happen. So there both like new out of the box.
search is your friend....

stuck red pixel

Hi all, desire arrived yesterday and is fab. Only problemso far is that I have a red dot/pixel on the screen which is to the right of the 8 when I have the keyboard up. Tried 2 apps from market place to get rid but one comment said it wouldn't work on led screens - and it hasn't.
Is there anything I can do?
Ok so having done a bit of research whilst watching the GP, it appears that not a lot can be done. It's so small, only seen on light coloured backgrounds, that I might leave it. Will see if T-mobile want to swop though just in case
ring t-mobile they should give send you a new one in replacement
Yep, you should phone T-Mobile and ask for a replacement!
Hello.... T-Mobile?
I have a duff HTC desire... stuck pixles, etc...
Oh... you don't have any? when will you be getting more... HOW LONG???!!!!??? :-(

Blue Stuck Pixel---How to fix?

I have recently noticed a blue stuck pixel on the dead center of my Note 2. The next minute i ran a stuck pixel app from the play store and have read that keeping it on low brightness works better will it flashes. Its still running btw.
Anyone know roughly how long i would need to keep it running? If this fails, what else may i try?
And how do I know if my phone is still under warranty? I had preordered it and it arrived on November 9th. Does that make me eligible for a replacement? If so, can you please include steps to do this? (Who to contact...)
Thank you!

I have the same problem. I had a red pixel stuck and tried a stuck pixel app running for about 3 hours and it didn't work. I went to the closest Samsung store and they told me they have a zero stuck pixel policy. I have had mine for just 2 months and they took it in for repair, no questions asked. They even offered me a replacement phone to use while mine was in repair for a $200 deposit. Hopefully they will have it fixed soon because using any other phone after the Note 2 sucks!!

Thats good to hear! How long has it been since you sent the phone for repair?
I suppose they do not all support that ideology 100% of the time

Pixel problem - returing to stock

I see small streaks of dead pixels all over my screen. I never noticed it before but now I really do. Tablet is less than a week old.
So my question is...how do I return it to complete stock so I can exchange it? I've rooted it.
Anyone? Thanks.

[Q] Stuck Pixels

Hi Everyone,
I just got a RMA back for a new display since the last one had a defect with a row of dead pixels. A few days after I just got a stuck pixel (color green). Any Suggestions? Thanks.

Hey I have a stuck pixel on my Nexus 7, but color red. It is only visible in dark backgrounds. Anyways, I am just asking you how as the RMA process, I am in a similar situation as you and I am wondering if there are any other solutions.

It was fast, it took two weeks to get it and where I live, it seemed it was shipped to Texas and repaired and send with FedEX Ground to my home. I'm right now using Fix dead pixels app and see if it has a effect. Anyways, sorry about your nexus.
Anyone...
Look on google play store for "stuck pixel remover"...it can take a while running it to work.
