I've had a Nokia 6300 in black since christmas 2008 and last night i got some dead pixels on my phone. Like the smallest size.

I turned it off for the night, turned it on the next morning and now my dead pixels are like in a few straight lines one above the other towards the middle of the screen.

I'm thinking if i turn it off again and back on it will get worse and i don't want to have to go to the trouble of buying a new phone.

Is there a way to fix these dead pixels with either software update, restore factory settings etc: anything will do providing i fix it.

Thanks for your time
