Hi all, I've read many of threads about this dead/stuck pixel problem. But I have another problem as mentioned.

At first I've though it is dead pixel, because it is black on white background. I've tried many backgrounds and still it was black. So deadpixel...

BUT after that I've found site with RGB testing (not only one color background, but one pixel color green (R-OFF, G-ON, B-OFF) and another magenta (R-ON, G-OFF, B-ON) for example). With this configuration my pixel IS NOT BLACK.... it is green or red (color changes by moving with this background in window above invalid pixel). So I thing this IS NOT dead pixel.

Another one test. With Black&White configuration of mixed pixels on the background, while moving with image around invalid pixel I have black color of this pixel and also "invisible one" so that is correct.

With blue&yellow testing I have invisible and black color.

Site mentioned is : http://www.gdargaud.net/Hack/DeadPixels.html#LCD

So my question is. Is this stucked subpixel and is any chance to fix that (by run fast switching RGB colors images program, tapping, massaging pixel) OR this is dead subpixel?? Is any way to know that for sure?

Thanks for response.

PS: I've tried programs (20minutes) and tapping/massaging pixel but it didn't fix that. Should I run that program over the night?
