Success clearing a stuck pixel

I have purchased three TP2s for work after showing the partners mine. I finally got around to activating them today and one of them had a minor but visible stuck pixel (white on a black image). I have been running the youtube video posted on this site that flashes different colors to unstick them for the last ~30 mins and the pixel is fixed. I really didnt expect this and had already sent in a request to my corporate rep but it worked!

You can try the link here

Only issue is that it is formatted for a regular screen so if your pixels are on the top or the bottom it wont help. If someone knows of a properly formatted video, please post it. Hope this helps.

Re: Success clearing a stuck pixel

I'm glad this fixed yours. I've read mixed reviews on whether those work or not and I'm afraid to try it on mine for fear I'll create a new one.

I wouldnt worry about creating new ones. I've used them several times for hours each time with mixed results. Usually the stuck pixels ive seen on monitors were far more pronounced and wouldnt budge. I've actually fixed more using the massage technique but thats not really an option here with the hard screen.
