dead pixels on your vibrant?

---

Anyone else randomly get a line of dead pixels across there phone? Any idea what could have caused this? Or if it can be fixed?

I have had this phone for over a month now and don't really want to have to return to t mobile for a "like new" phone. This phone is in perfect condition, I have had it in a silicone case with screen protector since it was out of the box.. And has never been dropped once.

Any ideas for me?

Fortunately, no, I don't have that problem. But, I have seen cases where a scratch on a screen will show a 'rainbow' effect seeming just like dead pixels. Not on this phone, though. Knock on wood.

I have a little rainbow line in my Vibrant but I dont know if its for the screen protector and i dont want to remove it

Called cc and they are going to send me a like new.. Seems like its all I can do

sorry to bring this back from the dead, but I have a single dead pixel in my vibrant screen as well.

this sucks, bc i took all that time to root my phone and got it running with the rom and kernel of my liking and now i have a dead pixel in the screen that bothers the hell out of me.

i have tried running strobe light, and also pixel fixer from the market with no luck...

people with dead pixels should all post in here so we can compile a list.

I had the problem of the "rainbow line" that I thought were dead pixels. Turns out it was indeed the InvisibleShield screen protector as others have suggested. Removed it, put on Real Look, problem is gone. Screen is beautiful.

no i can confirm I def. have a single solid dead black pixel... i have tried everything, but no luck.

I am going to wait until next year, and let this phone get all mangled/used and then call CC before the 1yr stock manufacture warranty is up and get a brand new device...

sucks ill have to go through all the root steps again, but a 500+ dollar phone should not have dead pixels in less than 2 months of ownership. (SAMOLED is not perfected yet? shortage and new 5.5billion $amsung factory????)

i think we should sticky this, from what i can tell from searching and scouring google - many owners are having similar issues with dead and stuck pixels...

some are able to fix, but most are not.

it would be nice to see just how many vibrant users are having this issue, or SGS users across all carriers for that matter? (vibrant seems to have the best display, as ive had them all side-by-side).

Mods, Admins? can we get this going?

phones aren't any different than tv's or monitors....you get dead pixels on occasion over time

1 dead pixel isn't going to kill ya, live with it or get a refurb replacement
