Do you have pixel issues with your TP2 display? (READ post before voting)

Please read this entire post before voting or making any comments, thank you.

Alright, as many of you know, there could be a big issue with stuck pixels on the Touch Pro2 display. As the name implies, these faulty pixels are stuck; so you will notice them on black backgrounds. We currently have a poll going on about this, but there is a possibility that we actually have two different issues. Before, it was recommended that we go into a dark room, turn on the camera app, and then check for stuck pixels. Recently, however, some people claim that abnormalities show up with the camera test, but not when you simply use a black image to test. So, to identify stuck pixels on the display, it’d probably be better to check using separate background and camera tests.

In an effort to collect the best results as possible, we have a new poll with more detailed choices. This should give potential buyers an idea about the severity of the problem at hand. Please test your TP2 using the methods below.

Test TP2 display under the following conditions:

- Stuck pixels during regular use: This would be obvious. After using your device for a couple days, have you noticed any stuck pixels during regular use?

- Stuck pixel background test: Download the attached file, which consists of an all black background that has been sized for WVGA screens. Load it up using HTC's image viewer. First check for stuck pixels on the display while in a regularly lit room. If you don’t notice any, go into a dark room and check again. If you're still not seeing stuck pixels, congratulations. Now please do the camera test.


- Camera display test: Go into a dark room and turn on your TP2’s camera. Check for any abnormalities on the screen.

After you’ve performed these tests, review the poll choices and place your vote accordingly. Please be honest. Also, if you’ve returned or attempted to return your TP2 due to pixel issues, please comment about your experience and mention which carrier. We hope that the poll results, with the help of user comments, will help inform users.
