I know this sounds like nothing but its been bugging me for a while....a white dot appeared in the right hand side of my screen and when watching videos or on any screen that isnt white its viewable is there anything i can do to unfreeze the pixel?
Gotta hate dead pixels.. =\ I have one on my portable dvd player. Bugs me so much when I watch The O.C. Anyways the warranty should cover it. Return it and get another one

Check first before u head down , as far as I know some telco has a dead pixel policy.
In order to get a exchange, need to have at least four or more dp then u be allowed to change for a new set

The PSP had problems with stuck pixels and someone came up with a looping video that cycled thru colors at high speed to try to unstick it. It worked but not in all cases.
Maybe something like this will work here???
Try this out
go into Options
type "test" without hyphens--> this will get you into the test menu, where you can perform various tests with your device
1.you can either cycle through all of the tests, which incldues LED testing, audio testing, backlight test etc..
2.skip directly to the screen backlight test by clicking on the trackball-->click on start-->click on Misc checkbox
this will perform a few different tests before it goes into the backlight tests, which will cycle the device's screen through different colors Ie: red, green, blue etc. No guanratees that this will get rid of the dead pixel, but it will allow the screen to cycle through the mentioned colors in full screen mode.

be more firm, dead pixels are NOT okay. if one person tells you know, ask to talk to their supervisor or their manager. considering you've only had it for 2 weeks, it is quite clearly defective and should be covered under warranty. then again if you are using it with T-mobile.. i dunno
