Hi!
No one else has the same problem as me? white pixel flashes for a bit on the browser, on a site with dark background, such tegrazone.com, its flashes always in the same place, i have download a dead pixel test from play but there is no dead pixel on the screen at all
Same problem for me, got it replaced since the store said it was a dead pixel. White pixel flashing some times, some times gone.
If you drag the notification bar down, can you see it then as well?

As of a month or two ago, a bright green stuck/dead pixel has been lingering on the left side of the notifications bar. I am rooted and would like to avoid going to the store to get it fixed. Aynyone know of any quick fixes for it? Appreciate the help.
I don't think you can fix that but I may be wrong

The only way to get it fixed is to get a new phone. There is no way to bring dead pixels "back to life." Back up with titanium backup and unroot and reset user data and go to the verizon store
Is it a dead pixel or a stuck pixel. If it stays black, then all three sub pixels in it would be inactive. But if it has color to it, in your case green, you might be able to correct it.
Either gently rubbing the screen or rapidly flashing random colors on your screen (there's got to be an app for this) might pop it.
Yeah I looked into a couple of apps that did that in the Market. The only issue was the colors they were flashing weren't extending over the area that the notifications bar covers.
Perhaps put a request in the android development and hack / apps and games section for a full screen app to do this?
I actually found two apps that claim to fix issues such as the green stuck pixel that I have and they work in full screen mode. Ill try them out tonight and report back. Thanks for all the help.

I am beginning to notice some screen burn in along the notification bar, and surprisingly enough, the keyboard keys. Is there any way to clear some of the burn in, or maybe prevent more burning?
Hmm get a new phone? But seriously I've noticed some odd shading on mine and any fix for this would probebly help me.

There are programs designed to fix dead pixels by rapidly turning them on and off; I wonder if you could use the same method to fix this problem. Bump out of curiosity.
Not sure if this counts or will work
But on my old psp I had this problem and I left the screen on a.black image for like six hours and it went away
For AMOLED I'm sure it would hafta be a white screen but it may work Idk

Bump for more ideas?
So I've had this problem on almost all roms I've run. It looks like screen burn in, but its not. Obviously.
It disapears after a while, I'm just wondering what causes it.
I searched Google but It's kind a of a hard thing to explain.
I took a screenshot of it, but it kept messing up in the upload. You can barely see it in the pixture. Sometimes it comes up as my text message pop up, or any text box I type in.

I get this too, I'm honestly not sure what it is.
Its mainly from what I've noticed is whitish icons, status bar icons, keyboard, keyboard letters. It annoys me to death some times.

its burn in. its happened on almost every android phone ive ever seen. it goes away.
It's not burn in. Burn in is permanent where as this usually isn't. This is called image persistence, or image retention. I would post a link to wikipedia article but I don't have enough post so just Google Image persistence. The solution to it is to just turn your device off for a bit.

Looks like I'm stuck with it then, I'm on my phone at least 55-65% of the time.

Hey guys,
I know that the screens on these phones are turning out to be junk, but I'm looking for some opinions on whether my particular issue (which I don't think has been brought up here before) is a hardware problem, or if it just looks like a software bug.
I've attached a picture of the glitch, which appears as two lines of random pixels that flicker between pink and green. I've circled in red the pixels that were doing it at the time (it only seems to happen with darker colours). The picture is GTA3, but I know that it also happens in the music app and when flicking between sense themes (although it's harder to reproduce in those apps). Oddly I've played Spirit HD too, but that doesn't cause it.
So what do you guys reckon, is it more likely a hardware issue or is this something that a driver update could fix, and is anyone else having this problem?
Thanks
Apparently the attachment didn't work, so here's a link: img713. imageshack.us/img713/7762/phonebug.jpg (remove space after the first dot)
enough with this FUD the screens are not junk, in fact they are amazing and made iphone owners shivers
the software has a glitch causing all sort of graphical corruption ie not the screen, glitches that goes away are software, glitches appearing in the same place in all phones are software, glitches that never manifest in certain apps are also a sign of software issue
software is no problem, no one updates their phones faster than HTC

OK fair enough, but given the amount of people complaining about screen flex issues and the like, surely I can be forgiven for thinking otherwise?
I raised the topic because this doesn't seem like the "software issues" that everyone is talking about though (the ones with flickering status bar etc).
Thanks for your input
I have had no issue for 4 days and noe all of a sudden I'm getting a red box outline all the way around the screen when selecting options in some menus very random

A red box around the whole screen? I think that's caused by the keyboard. I never experienced this on my phone because i use swype but i see it very often if i use the emulator. try a different keyboard. perhaps this fixes your issue.

i think that's a debug option in developer settings...indicates whenever menu speed is above a certain threshold afaik...i might be wrong though.
disable "Strict mode", reboot, wipe cache & dalvik for the hell of it...
Over the last few days I've noticed that the Chrome address bar and the NFC symbol are burned into my screen. Has this happened to anyone else?

I actually noticed this one day with the Chrome Browser as well. To troubleshoot, I checked a different browser that also had a black background and then didn't see the ghosted image. Back to Chrome again, ghosting; back to other browser, no ghosting. I think it might be a problem with the application where it's somehow burning the image into the black background of the browser instead of into the screen itself. Give it a try and see if that's the case or not.
You cannot burn an image into an applkcation as you described. If you use one of those screen test apps to look for dead pixels, on different colors you will see different parts. Usually with the full white screen you could see the burn in on the screen. If your screen is burned in see if sprint will replace it for you under warranty. Goodluck.

I hear what you're saying, but I know what I saw. I troubleshoot software and hardware all the time. I know what steps I took and I know I narrowed down the ghosting only to that one program's background. I didn't see it anywhere else; not on black backgrounds or on white backgrounds. Feel free to keep saying it's not possible, but I know what I saw.
Ok

This just came up on my home page so I'll help out the cause.
Basically, if a pixel stays the same for a very extended period of time (say, a few hours) and doesn't change then it eventually becomes accustomed to being that shade, and it will stay like that. LED screens are worst affected. If you make your entire screen go blue, that is by far the easiest way to check screen burn, as the blue segment deteriorates quickest.

I noticed this one day. I was flicking through pages and noticed I could see my beatiful widgets clock widget. It was only temporary though, as it went away after about 30 minutes of non-use. I also tend to get a yellow spot in the bottom right corner under prolonged temperature increase, but that also goes away. Hopefully it never becomes an escalating problem.
