Possible dead pixel and some bugs in GB

ntmedia — Sat, 10 Nov 2012 19:13:00 GMT

Hello,

I've purchased Xperia Go today. I don't know if it's set like that or is it a bug, but once I drag anything on the screen it "giggles". It shakes and really acts weird. And that happens all the time. Even in (default) browser. Is that "normal", a bug or something I should go and complain to my vendor about?

I've also got a blue pixel when starting Xperia, just above to the right of the xperia logo. Is that what you guys have as well or is it possibly a dead pixel? It's probably on every black background situation on Xperia.

Please someone from the support let me know if I should use my warranty and take this phone back to the store.

EDIT: Yep it's definitely a dead pixel. I've downloaded an app to check that. It's noticable only on black screen. It's not noticable on any other color.

Please answer to the question regarding stuff "shaking".

yeah but this is a hardware issue, therefore you need the LCD to be replaced

I've figured out it was a stuck pixel so I'm trying to fix it.

I do need an answer for this part of the discussion:

Well updating it to ICS definitely helped out. I was sceptical with speed of ICS, but after a power struggle to install it, it works wonderful. No lag, nothing. Very smooth and fluent. I've got no idea what's everyone complaining about

Thank you once again for your effor
