Pixer Fixer: save yourself from pixel death |
Ó
The problem with calling crait without using the capital "C" is that we can't start any sentences with his name. It's a small price, however, for the nifty app he's told us about, which is now available to PSP users everywhere.The app we're talking about is called the Pixer Fixer. Instead of downloading large videos to help dislodge those stuck pixels on your display, you can use the 150kb app to do it for you. It does its job by randomly printing thick lines on your Sony handheld to keep pixels from getting caught. For people with small memory cards, an app like this is going to be a very welcome addition to their utilities.
According to crait, it will work on 1.0 and 2.00+ PSPs, and will also work on 1.5 with custom firmware installed. It's an eboot, so you shouldn't have any problems with installing it. In any case, here are his instructions for using the app:
- Go to the Game icon on your PSP's XMB.
- Click X then find the icon that has the title "PixerFixer By crait." And once again, press X.
- Run this program for about 1 minute, changing the brightness setting of your PSP system every 2-4 seconds.

good job here comes the 1st posters and flammers
i just remembered about my couple stuck or maybe dead pix and i didn't want to go searching for the older ones. let hope this works....
This is awesome! Fixes my 4 stuck pixels perfectly! I'd definately reccomend this than any other pixel fixing app!
i had like 12 dead pixels ...this fixed about 7 of them...the first try......excellent little program!! im happy!!
how do you get this to work on a 2.71 sec psp?
this fixed up 20 tented pixels i had and for 2.71 sec just put the eboot file under ms0:/psp/game/pixer/ and then run it ;)
lol. i had the file in the right place but my recovery console setting were wrong(271 kernel instead of 150 kernel).
well I got it working on native 1.5 - using Sei PSP utility, and it still hasent fixed my red stuck pixel - that is incapable of doing a few colours. Ah well :P
Geez you guys have lots of stuck pixels!
no dead pixels yet knock on this desk but Ill have this if need be thanks alot!!!! man been waiting a month to get my verification email from this palce shakes head........
Can someone tell me how to work this on regular 1.5?
how do you make it stop? hard reset? hmmm.. it may have fixed one of my 4.... but I may have a new one now. :P
some 1 pls tell mi how to make it work on normal 1.5 as well urgent
have u tried kxploiting it? :)
i am a noob teach mi how to exploit
i dont have any stuck or dead pixels does anyone no if it helps to stop getting stuck pix's i really dont want any
yeh how do i run this on regular 1.5? i dono how that kxploit works
Wow, Does this thingy actually make more dead pixels?!
Stuck = white Dead = black its possible for subpixels to become stuck also (red green blue) If it's a black pixel on a white screen its dead. also wasnt there an app exactly(functionality wise) like this about a year ago? owell who cares.
program needs to pay more attention to the top and bottom of the screen, it mainly targets the middle section
yes but it didnt really work well, although this hasnt worked for me either :)
don work for mi
this app shows up as though it were a regular psp demo file but when i try to run it my psp gives me a message that the file is corrupt
same here...maybe 3.0 is the cutoff...hopefully not
thats because you are an idiot!
does this work on ta-082, 2.81 psp's?
Is it possible to make it work for v2.8? If so, please teach me, thanks, i have never used brews before.
I've got 1.5 firmware, if i use kxploit will it work? or can u just use devhook to go to 3.02 and then run? any help whatsoever will be appreciated.
isit pressing the button beside the psp logo on the bottom right by ourselves or isit in the system settings?
Why would you want to cycle the brightness? That only dims and brightens the backlight and has nothing to do with the actual LCD screen at all right?
I got it working on SE-C only by putting the folder inside GAME150. Didn't work from GAME. Oh well. Great program, crait!
Hey crait. This program works great for me and has fixed at least 3 stuck pixels! At last I got rid of them, I've had them since the start. The only problem is that I have 3 more stuck pixels at the way top of the screen and that area doesn't seems to be "colourized" as much as the rest, therefore not fixing them. Is this a problem for anyone else? I'm gonna run it for a while more, and if it's not fixed, I'll have to try another method. Again, thanks for your great work, crait.
i have 2 stuck pixels .. im testing it but no result :(
I was lucky to only have 1 stuck pixel on launch day - one thing that I was very worried about. I tried numerous videos and such to try and get rid of that one pixel issue but it never worked - i'm going to give this proggy a try and then if it doesn't fix it - I won't try anymore. It's not that big of a deal - but everytime the screen goes black - loading screens etc, I just stare at that one pixel and it pisses me off... lol
i have 2 stuck pixels on bottom right, and it doesn´t work =///
"I just stare at that one pixel and it pisses me off... lol" thats so true,lol! (same here)
let it run for over 1 hour
one dead pixel runs a perfect lcd
The homebrew app I have blows this one away. Video downloads and this are a joke compared to being able to select each and every pixel like the app I use. You simply run it and select a pixel then start flashing the pixel every color and walla no more stuck pixels. I wonder why nobody ever mentions the app I use? Owell more fun for me if I have an easier way then everybody else. :D Good luck with this. LOL
you get it to work on 1.5 you need custom firmware installed that allows you to run 1.0 eboots for 3.0+... sry... your out of luck for 2.8, use the eloader for 2.71, use the eloader and i mgith go and fix the top part of the screen later. and the reason you cycle the brightness settings is because the lcd gets a different charge when you do, the color variation works with the changing charge to cycle through your brightness settings you have to press the brghtness button i will probably make a different version of this that automatically changes the brightness settings. and blitz's images to the top of the screen too
This does not run on 1.5. you need to either use the kxploit or install custom firmware then run it for 2.81 and up, you are boned... for 2.8, use the eloader for 2.71 use the eloader if you have custom firmware for 2.71, use it! go to the xmb and select the icon for the game and run it
Could you send me a link to your app? I have a pixel in the left hand corner and every other app doesnt fix it.
Try opening it up, and letting it run for awhile. Plug your psp in to a charger and just let it keep giong for a long time. eventually it will be fixed.
This didnt do anything for me but i am gonna run it for about an hour to see if anything changes!
Alot of people are trying to fix dead pixels with this yours may be a dead pixel
Also works with Installotron/SFOPatch with Firmware 2.80
hell yea 2nd post 2nd is the best wooohoooo!
its works on a TA-82 2.71 with the latest eloader... fixed my 2 stuck pixels... :)
I know the crait!! hes on my msn thing!!! Good job, Anyone know if this works on 2.80?!
haha u all suck naa joking:P this app is really kool....FOR U PEOPLE THAT HAVE DEAD PIXELS!!:P well i didnt have ne dead pixels wen i got mine and it was a 1.5:P but then i upgraded to 2.60 like an a$s hole cuz i didnt know a ting about homebrew n stuff but then the downgrader came out and everyting was good like after 10 minz:P i had 1.5 again yay!!:P and thatz my story ;)
Doesn't work for me, I put the pixer folder in the "Game" folder with my dev hook and other apps. I press the logo in the psp XMB, it goes to a black screen and then an error psps up that says the "the game could not be started" Please help! I've got a few pixels waiting....
Yeah, I've had 3 dead pixels from the start. A red, a blue and a green. I ran this program 5 times, for a few minutes each, cycling the brightness, but didn't fix them so I guess they're ....... stuck :(
I still have a couple stuck pixels. Those stupid white ones that are just winking me in the face. Im running the thing right now and so far nothing. Any other suggestions to getting this thing to work?
I've tryed every other PSP dead pixel fixer...but to ill effect, I'll try this one too I guess, damn you red pixel...you ruined my life...I hope you burn in hell!
Does this work on 3.01 ? Plz help.
okay, I have a TA-082 whatever PSP at firmware 2.71. What can I do to run this program? I currently have a bright red pixel at the middle top of the screen and one that works fine until bright blue colors show up. Then it turns green and other bright colors.
Great app.. Nicely done. lucky me zero dead pixel. hehe

This does not run on 1.5. you need to either use the kxploit or install custom firmware then run it for 2.81 and up, you are boned... it does not work on 2.81 or 2.82 or 3.0 or 3.01 or 3.02 or 3.03 it only works on fw below that for 2.8, use the eloader for 2.71 use the eloader if you have custom firmware for 2.71, use it! go to the xmb and select the icon for the game and run it
Really Good App and a "Must Have for Any PSP Owner with Stuck Pixels", not sure how good it is with Dead Pixels but for Stuck Pixels it works a treat. It fixed my 1 Stuck Pixel the first time i ran it, which was for about a minute. Finally a Pixel Fixer Program for your PSP that actually works!!!!!! O''''
Wow thanks! It works better in a minute than RGB movies in an hour!
I just ran this and it fixxed 2 stuck pixxels I ran it on 3.03OE-B
