Tepples, in your signature, theres a website (tod: updated) that has a GBA pixel fixer.
I'm curious, will your app fix stuck/dead pixels on a DS screen? (at least what is covered in GBA mode)
normally, i would PM you for this, but it could help other members, so i posted it

It's intended to work as well on a DS as it does on any other GBA compatible system. It may not get all your DS's stuck pixels. And make sure to close your DS while it's running unless you want to have a seizure.

Heck, if you have a TV with a stuck pixel, you could even use it with a Game Boy Player and have a seizure-riffic time!

ooh i can't wait
although the only messed up pixel I have is in the DS part of the screen (the gba won't reach that far)
is there a DS pixel fixer?
Think about it! two screens at once flashing color! It brings a whole new meaning to the acronym 'DS'! "Dual Seizures!"

It's unlikely to help. They can be stubborn and won't give in no matter how much you flash them...

I've tried all the DS pixel thingys and sadly none helped the stupid blue pixel. I guess it's stuck forever.
The good news is, even watching them, I didn't get a seizure
edit---
(the banned pokemon anime didn't give me a seizure either :p )

I have a red "stuck forever" dead center on my DSLite... on the top screen. Very nerving. I've left it flashing for over 60 hours(or 5 nights), no work :(

uhm yeah it's safe.. It's just flashing the screens, its not a specific procedure which it goes through to get rid of stuck pixels.

Some PSP forum members have claimed it takes eight hours for a stuck pixel to go away.

Of course! You must have been confused by the fact that the English word "flash" is way overloaded. It can refer to nonvolatile NAND memory, nonvolatile NOR memory, replacing the software in nonvolatile memory, Adobe SWF, a DC Comics hero, a still camera's built-in light, or indecent exposure. GBA Stuck Pixel Fixer just blinks the screen at 10 Hz; it doesn't make any permanent changes to your system.
