why is my screen "flickering"?and i think i have a "stuck" pixel

[sonic dock]

I bought this 3ds from Japan, and when it came the screen was acting like this. I had them check the screen and send me pics before they shipped it and i was assured the screen was fine but i didnt ask them to move the screen around specifically.

One of many reasons

1. bad shipping
2. hardware issues
3. screen burning maybe for the suck pixel
4. the screen might have been doing that as a system background check (like checking for touch)
5. other that I can’t think of

screen burn in is incredibly rare on non oled screens let alone the 3ds. Screen burn in also doesnt cause stuck pixels, it just causes a "shadow" like affect.

is the 3D turned off?

nope, i didnt realize there was a click part of the 3d scale. i wasnt used to that

still got a stuck pixel tho

how does one fix that

thanks for the help guys,

that sounds sarcastic, it is not.

Look to the right I think

And look for a scale like thing on the top part thingy

I might be mistaken

But there might be a 3d button

Hold on lemme find a pic

If it’s a new 3ds it should look like this

Why can’t I remix it

😭

But I think it’s only for new 3ds

try using the internet browser to run a video of flashing colors and it might fix the stuck pixel. or it might go away on its own as you use it, it may not. give it time and it might go away. i have one like that on my screen that has yet to go away. it’s hard to say if its truly dead or if its just stuck
