    Thank you! I tried all 6 steps a few times throughout the day with no luck. I let it sit charging for a while and then came back to it. Tried the first 5 steps again, and then repeated step 1 a few more times in a row, and by some miracle the screen came back on.

    My Story on the Black Screen:
    My wife's phone was on the counter with the screen on and working fine, she moved it and placed it on another counter, 5 mins later she checked the phone and it was the black screen. Searched online and found this video, tried everything numerous times. Nothing worked. 4 days passed then I figured I should probably let the battery run out then try it again so I connected the phone to my fire stick and used it as a power source until the battery died (7 hours later, which was quite impressive) after it died I did everything this video said and nothing. The morning after when I accepted defeat and decided to carry it to Samsung service center (which I really did not want to , if they open it I believe the waterproof integrity will be reduced once it's opened) the morning I picked up the phone, clicked the power button, and the screen turned on!
    ....
    I checked the camera roll and precisely the moment the screen went black and we were trying to unlock it, it took screenshots, the screenshots showed that the camera was on which she may have clicked open by mistake, so I think because the camera app was left on maybe somehow the screen decided to go black... Such an expensive phone with a issue like this...
    Definitely will not be purchasing Samsung again. Will be iphone for her and Google pixel for me.
    Hope everyone got theirs solved.

    None of these suggestions worked for me. What did happen is as follows.
    My phone was on but blackscreen. Unusable. The morning alarm was continuing to go off so I put it away until i could take it to the repair joint.
    After a few days, I pressed the power button and saw the charge indicator light up on the screen, 0%.
    I plugged the charger back in and after a minute the charging indicator came back on and eventually it got to 5%. I switched on my phone and VOILA it has worked since.
    So maybe, if possible try and run your phone dead flat, then try it. I'm no expert and Im only passing on what i found. Good luck.

      I've tried this also, I must have rebooted my phone over 100x time, and continuously doing all of the 6 fixes in this video. I was able to drain the phone battery by letting it charge another phone. After battery completely died I've waited one night, next morning upon charging still had no screen. I was repeating all of he steps in this video again. Then drained the battery again and this time left the phone dead for 3 days. Now after I plugged it in, the screen lit up with the charging logo.
      Next thing I was going to try was to disassemble the phone and unplug the ribbon connector, I'm glad i didn't have to come to that.

      Yes I agree. It's rubbish when we pay so much for these Samsung flagship phones, only to find out that the parts inside are flimsy. I wouldn't mind, but as I've got 2 phones, my note 20 ultra sits safely on the sofa & bedside table. It's never been overused or been treated roughly.

    I just want to say thank you, New Years Eve my phone went black devastated. New years Day tried all day trying to reactivate phone. I tried all the steps multiple times except putting it in the freezer. Last resort decided I will try the freezer method. Put it in for 10mins took it out and tried force restarting didn't work left for a few minutes then grabbed it and then decided to continuously hold the 2 buttons, force restarting non stop about 5 or 6 times feeling it vibrate every time and hoping it will restart. Then I could not believe my eyes when the phone lit up and saw those words Samsung Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G. great sense of relief. I was not happy the way my new year started but now am relieved. Backing up my phone now. It's still under warranty but if I took it in for repairs I'm quite sure they would of deleted all my data. I would have not been impressed. Thanks again!

    Exactly same screen remaining off experience for me. 15 months after purchase, never dropped even from 10cm, never got it into any liquid or humidity. I was certain nothing was dislodged because my phone was fine before sleeping and it was sitting in a dedicated space near my pillows. Nothing touched it or moved. When I woke up I saw the screen dark and thought the battery was probably dead. But then I heard some notification and understood the screen was somehow stuck in off mode. I had to restart (hold volume down + power button) for about 20-30 times before the Samsung logo came up normally as it should. Don't tap / beat your phone or put it into the freezer unnecessarily (if you are certain it's a not software glitch). Freezer method can invalidate your warranty since after you take it out the condensed water that forms may create humidity / droplets inside the phone which is going to permanently show that your phone was exposed to humidity in the past (there are special stickers inside your phone which react to humidity and change color). Try the hard restart method 20-30 times first before trying anything more brutal (yes, actually be patient and try hard restart method for at least 30 times). Tapping, squeezing and freezer method should only be attempted after you tried at least 30 times the hard restart method. because in 90% of the cases this is a software glitch which needs to cleared out from the system.

    Connecting mine to a tv via a USB-C to HDMI adapter, going to settings, and doing a software update fixed my screen. I recommend giving this a shot if your screen is black and you can still feel the phone vibration doing a reset using the volume down and power buttons. The $20 I spent getting the adapter was totally worth it.

    UPDATE: I let the battery drain for a day. Charged it for 10 mins, smacked it and it now works! However, it's still heating up quite a bit, so I might do a factory reset.

I tried all the video's tips one time and did not work. I let the phone idle for one hour and tried again and the tapping technique made the screen to come back. Thanks Mr. 6 Easy Fixes!!

    As skeptical as I was... I performed all 6 steps (yes, I left it in the freezer for nearly an hour as i forgot) anyhow when I got to the "plug it in" section on my second run... *BAHLOOP* and it started charging. I got into this problem because i had left the phone off the charger and it went dead and refused to accept being plugged in.... seems to be taking a nice charge and it started up. Thank you. Don't give up on it is my advice.

    IT WORKED!! Useful info: My phone was working fine, didn't drop it, and suddenly I got a black screen. You could still call my phone, feel vibrations, even answer phone calls if you knew where to swipe, but the screen was COMPLETELY BLACK. Even knew about the force restart, but this alone did not work. IMPORTANT: I followed all the steps in this video (except the freezer step). Additionally, I had to REPEAT those steps MORE THAN ONCE. What he says is true, don't get discouraged, it may take several cycles of these steps. Make sure you plug in the phone when he says to, and to restart when he says to. Eventually, ONCE YOU RESTART THE PHONE, you will get the Samsung screen....AND IT IS FIXED! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO :)

    I put my phone into safe mode initially. Then, I turned it off & then back on again. It's now working absolutely fine.
    Just as well as the blasted alarm has been going off every 10 minutes for 15 hours! Black screen meant there was no way of turning it off.

After trying the the first 2 fixes over and over with no results, the next day I spent about an hour tapping the front and back, tried the forced restart but again no results, then massaged it followed by force restart. I alternated between the two for sometime until my hands started getting very tired and cramped from the massaging. Soon after one of the restarts, the Samsung logo and the screen suddenly lit up! I was amazed.. and relieved! You definitely get a thumbs up from me 👌👍

      @@naula7 Unfortunately for me, just recently my phone blacked out again and this time I couldn't get the screen to work. Still, it wasn't a waste as I managed to get my data & photos all backed up and saved plus it gave me several extra months of usage. I took it in to a local repair guy and he disconnected my battery and restarted several times but still couldn't get it to work. He says I will have to change the whole screen which will cost around $480! I ended up buying myself a Xiaomi Mi Max 3 mobile on eBay as I love big phones - this only cost $362 and this is what I am currently using. With regards to fixing the replacement screen, I remembered my credit card gave an extended warranty, so I am in the process of putting in a claim on my credit card insurance and hope they will cover the replacement cost. After this, I won't be buying any Samsung mobiles again as I have also had previous problems with battery life on my previous mobile. I hope you have better luck with your phone and that it doesn't black out again like mine did. 🙏
