Help Is this a dead or stuck pixel?

SudoSub

Lurker
It shows up on white, yellow, green and cyan backgrounds (via strobe light app), but does not show on blue, red, black, magenta?

I know a "dead" pixel is classified as a black pixel , but because it does not show up as a black dot on blue, red and magenta backgrounds makes me think it might be stuck. I want to avoid having to exchange it for a new one, by using a stuck pixel repair method.

What do you guys think?
 
Its not dead. dead pixels are just that.. dead. If your pixel shows color.. then its still somehow.. alive. lol. :] good luck
 
there is a program called Strobe or something somewhere on the market. its meant to just be a toy, but there are pixel exercising programs for computers that basically do the same thing, they a bunch of colors across the screen to try to wake up dead pixels. like i said, the program wasnt designed for it, and even the ones that are dont always work, but give it a shot sometime. try letting the program run overnight
