Deapixel??

HI,

I was using an app called yFTP... My 7610 crashed when I hit connect, screen went white (it had coulourful stripes on it), and then it restarted. When it started up again I found that there were bright turquoise pixel at the bottom of the screen. Screen was absolutely perfect until that F***G ftp app crashed...!
So is that a dead pixel? How is it possibe that it appeared after the crash??!! And how is it possible that it's not visible with black background!? It's only visible when I use white background!
Will Nokia replace my screen for free?

Sounds like a dead pixel, indeed. For a single bad pixel, the display might not be replaced, but it doesn't hurt to ask a Nokia service center.
