Jailbroken my ip4 today with Jailbreakme, installed cydia just fine then when I bought the 3g unrestrictor, everything went fine until it booted up and dead pixel is on startup. Anybody having the same problem? Or does anybody have a fix for this? Thanks

If you mean those greenish lines, that is the part of the actual jailbreak code you're seeing. It's stored in the frame buffer and shows up on the boot screen. Perfectly normal!

100% correct.

Those multicolored lines of pixels are the "awesome sause" that, I believe, keeps the device nice and jail broken after each reboot. Not all jailbreak methods do this, but the jailbreakme.com method does.

Everything is working as intended.

Alright, I thought my phone had dead pixel on em. Well hope somebody have some kind of fix for this, kind of annoying. But I'm just happy I got my jailbreak. :)

the fix for those pixels is to restore fresh. the Jailbreakme.com jailbreak REQUIRES those pixels. That is the code required, injected into the boot image. Its not really something that gets fixed, since it isn't a problem, it's the method.
