Stuck red pixel

[anon(5922134)]

I have a red pixel at the bottom left corner of my One. I can only notice it on a black background but it's driving me crazy.
I wont be able to exchange my phone because I already did once.
Is there way to fix a red pixel?

I have to know why did you return it in the first place?

I maybe wrong but if the pixel is stuck and not dead then i think it can sometimes fix itself, gently tapping the area sometimes works or so i read somewhere anyway

There are also apps in the Play Store that claim to be effective at fixing stuck pixels. I've never used them, so can't vouch for their usefulness.

I returned it because the top left corner of the screen was coming off, the silver aluminium part was slightly raised from the body of the phone (the white part)

Yeah, I tried massaging the area and I tried putting a thin cloth and tapping the dead pixel with a pen, but no luck.

I tried some of those apps, but the way they fix it is by running a series of flashing colors for aout 20 mins, I don't know if I can do that to my phone, I'm worried that it might damage the screen.

You see, I was going to exchange my phone for a couple faint stuck white pixels, but I would gladly keep those and not have any stuck red ones! That sucks. Hopefully one of those pixel fixer apps work for you.

Ignore it and get on with your life and spend time worrying about things that are actually important? Seriously 1 stuck pixel in the corner on a 1080p screen and it's driving you crazy? You need to get your priorities straight in life.

Sorry but these aren't hand made luxury objects crafted with the precision of a diamond ring. They're mass produced electronics that will be worth 200 bucks in a year.

Once you know there's a stuck pixel, you will always look in that area and this annoys me sooo much.
I'm running one of the apps to see if it helps, I'll update if this solves my problem.

I know what you mean, but in the end spending about $600, you expect your brand new toy to be flawless right?
So let's say you buy a brand new car and there's a chip in the paint somewhere aren't you gonna be pissed and annoyed? probably.
