Work around HiDPI madness
Change keyboard layout on your own created Linux live system for example Xubuntu
Edit this file /etc/default/keyboard
Open as sudo or root this file with vim
# vim /etc/default/keyboard
Then for example the 'en' to this
XKBLAYOUT= 'en'
to
XKBLAYOUT= 'de'
:wq
Done

Determine, analyze stuck pixels and try to fix them(sorry dead pixels are dead :))
If a stuck pixel occurs on your LCD or OLED display, there might be still a chance to somewhat unstuck that. But if the pixel is really dead i.e. has a hardware failure, there isn't anything you can do.
Here is an good software to determine if your pixel is stuck or dead.
On older Ubuntu systems there was a program called LCDNurse it seems that this project is gone for good :(
But there is still hope, there is a neat web application called jscreenfix
You could try this tool, begin with 10 minutes and hope for the best if this fails. You can go for 15 minutes. If this also fails, you could go for 8 hours. I know, sounds like a little overkill. But who knows ¯_(ツ)_/¯ Good luck. :)

1vyrain— An xx30 ThinkPad Jailbreak by George Kushnir(n4ru)
“Software-based “jailbreak” allowing all ivybridge-based xx30 thinkpads to softmod custom bios images…”
features: – automatic exploit chain unlocking bios region for flashing – model detection and automatic bios flashing – support for custom bios images (coreboot, skulls, heads) – self-signed BIOSes ensure TPM continues working
modded bios includes: – overclocking support (37xx, 38xx, 39xx cpus) – whitelist removal; use any wlan adapter – advanced menu (custom fan curve, tdp, etc) – intel me disablement via advanced menu
Supported Systems
X230 X330* X230t T430 T430s T530 W530
*X330 machines are supported but not automatically detected. They are detected as normal X230 machines. The flashing menu has an additional option to flash a BIOS with the LVDS patch for machines detected as an X230. -i models of the above are also supported because of a shared firmware and motherboard

Getting started with ACPI
A quick explainer on ACPI
So what are DSDTs and SSDTs? Well, these are tables present in your firmware that outline hardware devices like USB controllers, CPU threads, embedded controllers, system clocks and such. A DSDT(Differentiated System Description Table) can be seen as the body holding most of the info with smaller bits of info being passed by the SSDT(Secondary System Description Table). You can think of the DSDT as the building blueprints with SSDTs being sticky notes outlining extra details to the project…
