also, many people were getting TPs with yellow screens, which sounds even harder to return.

I am not concerned with the tp2 screen.
OWAH! Very imformative. Looks like you are correct. There were som with stuck pixels. But look at the stats, they are VERY far in between. Thank for providing that thou.

Re: Touch Pro 2 dead or stuck pixel POLL

I have about 3 stuck pixels that you can see very easy. They are all at the top and close to the side of the screen. But, if you look closer, say a dark image at night in a dim lit room, I have probably 15 to 20 stuck pixels. I don't understand why the 3 look bigger than the rest. So, I called Sprint and asked my options. THe girl polietly told me she would send out another. No questions asked. Well, it arrived today. Fire it up, and right in the middle of the screen just above the icons in TFLO, a big ole stuck pixel. Very annoying. But, it's the only big one and there is maybe 3 or 4 small stuck ones.

So, the big stuck pixel on the new TP2 I recieved made me fortunate for what I got now in my original. That plus on the new one the keyboard is very loose. So I'm sending the 2nd one back and gonna tell them to note it on my account about the pixels issue I have now. Hopefully this will be fixed in the future.

And just to let everyone know, I'm not a perfectionist by any means. And I don't stand in a dark room for hours waiting for a pixel to pop out at me. But, when I pay close to $400 for a phone, I expect to have NO dead pixels. I can live with a few, but not 15 to 20!!!

Re: Touch Pro 2 dead or stuck pixel POLL

Great...this doesn't sound good. I'm receiving mine tomorrow, and I will be returning it if there are stuck/dead pixels for sure. I never had any pixel problems with my Mogul, my first Touch had a black spot on the LCD after almost a year of ownership (which I traded in for a new one), and neither of my two Touch Pros had any pixel issues. ever.

Stuck or dead pixels were VERY rare for the past devices. But this is ridiculous! If the data on the vote is correct, 1 out of 4 Pro2 they sell have this issue. And by this ISSUE I mean 4 to 20 stuck pixels. I would return until I get a flawless screen like the 3 out of 4 that people are gewtting. When ppl say.. "Ohh , your soo picky. Its not bad! " Chances are they have a perfect screen and dont see the issue. Pro2 is turning into a disaster. ss much as many members here hate to hear that. Beautiful big screen, but full of dead and stuck pixels with an uneven back light. My pro 1 is looking better and better with its futuristic magnotrom stylus and Capacitive Dpad. Ohh yeah baby. ANd no stick pixels. And LED flash light. That think comes in handy all the time when interrogating people!

Re: Touch Pro 2 dead or stuck pixel POLL

1st, learn to multi-quote or edit previous posts. It's quite annoying with your signature that's as tall as my phone taking up half the page.

2nd, I have one stuck pixel, stuck on red in the bottom center of the screen. Didn't even notice it until i turned on the camera and looked over the screen multiple times, and even then i almost though it may have been dust as there were a couple dust specs showing on the screen as well. IMO, not a big deal as the pixes are very small, and unless you're looking for them, a dead/stuck pixel here or there isn't a huge issue. I have 1 dead pixel and 2 stuck pixels on my monitor and almost never notice them, even though i do know where they are.

Re: Touch Pro 2 dead or stuck pixel POLL

I got my second TP2 in, and it has 10 stuck pixels'! Twice as many as my original. I am sending it back instead of my first one, and telling Verizon to send me another one; however, if the next one is just as bad, I am just going to live with it. The phone is just too nice, and like other posters have stated, I hardly notice them unless I am looking for them. It sucks that they are there, but this phone is so much better than the TP1 that I can live with it. YMMV.
