Before we begin, we will answer the following question: What is a pixel? it is the smallest element of a digital image represented by a colored square, the more pixels per inch a screen has, the higher the resolution will be. The computer term dead or burned pixel refers to one of these light units that have stopped working on the screen of your cell phone Androidtablet, TV, monitor, etc., so this time, from Depor we will teach you how to identify if your smartphone is presenting this annoying problem and if it is possible to solve it.
The pixels are based on the RGB (Red, Green and Blue) color mode, which is mostly used for graphic elements (not printed), this is how a group of pixels manage to form images, combine and create a new color. Why does a pixel burn? There are many reasons, for example: a manufacturing fault; devices with screens that have higher resolution, having more pixels there is more risk of a pixel dying; cell phones with very cheap prices, they have lower quality components, etc.
Can a burned pixel be fixed? If you’ve tried to restart, shut down, or reset your cell phone to its factory values and the problem still remains, it is most likely a hardware error and not the operating system, it means that only a cell phone specialist or technician will be able to solve it.
SO YOU CAN KNOW IF YOUR CELL PHONE HAS A DEAD PIXEL
- First, go to the “Settings” of your phone Androidyou locate it with the icon of a cogwheel or gear.
- Now, press the section that says “About the phone”.
- The next step is to find and press the “All specifications” option. Remember that the process may change slightly depending on the brand and model of the device, in this example we use a Xiaomi mobile.
- In this part you must tap several times on “Kernel version” until the CIT screen is enabled.
- Finally, click on the tab called “Display” and click on “Touch the screen to start the test”.
Done, that would be it. Automatically the screen of your smartphone will turn red, green and blue to identify if you have any dead pixels. If you notice that the colors do not have black or white spaces, it means that the LCD, OLED, AMOLED, etc. screen is 100% operational, otherwise it is an indication that there is a burned pixel.
THINGS YOU SHOULD NOT DO TO TAKE CARE OF YOUR ANDROID CELL PHONE BATTERY
- Prevent your cell phone from being completely discharged: According to the information released by the Android Authority technology portal, the ideal would be to keep it between 20% and 80%. Why? because over time the ion cells of the battery are forced and end up degrading, something that would affect its performance.
- Don’t leave it too long at 0%: There are times when your mobile completely turns off, but there is always a little power left for vital or emergency functions, if you constantly leave it uncharged for days or weeks, it is likely that it will stop working at any moment.
- Prevent your cell phone from being at high temperatures: stop using it if you feel that your cell phone is overheating, remember that the degradation of the internal components of the batteries is accelerated by heat.
- Fast charging in moderation: some Xiaomi devices fully charge their battery in 15 minutes, this with a 120W charger, although it is not a negative function if you repeat it daily it could considerably damage the battery.
