  • Update Dec 26, 2015: if this method does not work then try this: • ALL SAMSUNG PHONES: WO...
    Here is an easy method you can do yourself and maybe this will work for you as it did me. At one point my touch screen was not responsive then a day or two later my phone screen went totally black. I can hear it boot up and all the other button where still working but i just could not see anything on the screen. I thought i needed a screen replacement and tried one more last thing.
    I took my battery out, held my power button down for 1 minute then just left my phone with the battery out for another 5 minutes or so. Then i came back and popped my battery in...and what do you know.. My phone is back to normal and for two days not its working perfectly.
    Try and this and comment below if this works for you with your make and model of you phone. I hope this works for many of you.
    And again, i used my Samsung Galaxy S5, but hopefully this works on all other Galaxy's and Android phones.
    Check out it out. I go snorkeling with my S5: • Galaxy S5: Snorkeling ...

      I have a Samsung tablet. Screen just went black. No reason. It's never been dropped. Could hear the volume control working. (bink bink bink). Didn't look like the back would come off as easily as the phone in the video. Then I came across your reply. And what the hell, I dropped it about two and a half inches onto my desk here. And 'bingo', it lit up as soon a I touched the light me up button. I laughed just like you. hahahahahahahaha..... Thanks Nelly.

    OK... I've figured out that my touchscreen still works but the screen is totally blank. I've gone through 4 of your videos and tried every "fix" that applies to the S4 (att) trying to get the screen to come back on with no luck. Just for grins, I called my S4 from another phone. When it began to ring, I swiped across the big black void approximately where I thought the graphic would usually be. LO and BEHOLD! It answered the incoming call. What could be the problem in your opinion?

    • @faroukjlassi234

      Guys try to check first if the display is rightly connected, because when you pick it up or you fall it down, it can be that it disconnected from the mainboard, so try checking this and correctly rebuild it, when it still not working buy a new digitizer and plug it in, it should work :)

    I am an avid phone dropper (3 resulting in cracks) and I just dropped my phone last night out on the concrete. I picked it up and it had no physical damage but the touch screen was unresponsive and 5 minutes later it started to show a purple/black smudge-like mark in the back-lighting and rapidly got worse and has taken the entire screen. It shows nothing now and is completely black. I have tried many remedies like this and others but nothing works. I am 2 months away from phone upgrade and I don't want to spend money on a new one now. All I want it so make sure all of my files (contacts, accounts, pictures) will transfer to my next phone. I have thought about a screen replacement but I'm not sure that will help. If anyone has any suggestions or advice please let me know. Until I get a solution I will be using my grandfather's old phone, a Motorola flip phone that does not take my sim card.

    This works. I tried it after my phone wouldn't come on and had a black screen. I went a extra step and pulled out the sim card and the battery. Held down the power button for a minute. Then put the sim card back in, and then the battery. Put the back back on the phone, held down the power button and BAM! The phone came back on and it's working.
    This works! Definitely try this, because it worked for me.
    Note: You don't have to wait 5 minutes like this guy did in his video. Just do the steps I just laid out and this should get your phone back on and working.

If still no go then pull out your battery and hold down your power button for one minute then reinsert your battery and boot up again. If still go put your phone and battery back in the ziplock bag full of uncooked rice again for another day. Then repeat the process.

    Finally got this fixed. it sounds like the reason for this is that since the latest update your phone cannot decide whether to use hardware or software back light settings. I managed to make the problem go away by doing this:
    Go to settings >> system >> About device.
    Find "Build number" and click 6 times fast on it.
    You will then get the message saying: "You are now a developer"
    Come back to Home Screen, and then go back to Settings >> system >> Now you will see the "Developer Options"
    Now go to Developer options >> Drawing Section or Rendering Section >> Find "Turn off hardware overlays" or "disable hardware overlays" >> This will force the phone to always use GPU for screen adjustments. no more flickering.

      @faroukjlassi234 9 років тому +2

      asma skate your phone is having a water damage or the screen is damaged,
      so put out the batterie and leave your phone to the sun for few hours ( 6 till 8 ),
      turn on your phone again and if the problem persist then you should take it to a repair shop and they might change the screen with a new one :)
      PS : If in your country there is no sun anymore then take it to a repair shop haha

    Thanks for this. I picked up my phone off the desk today and it went black. No life anywhere, screen, lights, volume - nothing. Naturally I put it on charge but it would not even respond to the cable connecting to show charging. Tried taking battery out and putting it back again etc.
    Then I tried the one minute wait and it sorted it out. Phone came to life with 32% charge showing.
    Many thanks

    Okay, I tried the power button battery removal method....did not work. So, on to the smack method. Third time was a charm!!! Fixed the damn thing! Awesome! I had issues a week ago, but this happened tonight after I had dropped it (Otter case and all). Genius...thanks so much for the help! But something tells me Samsung has a problem if this is happening to phones that haven't been dropped, ya think???

    Pressing on the screen all over is what worked for me. Looks like it was a loose connection between the screen signal sending components and the screen, so that is what worked, thank you. [Samsung Galaxy S5 - could feel the haptic vibrations and App related sounds, so I knew it was on, and charged and charging, but just wasn't able to see anything].

    @Leib33 7 років тому

    i didn't understand the sequence of the different scenes in this video. Is the first scene what actually got your phone going again permanently? I seemed to me that one of the later scenes was a 'prequel' to the first scene and the last scene where you say "I think I'll take this in for repair" was a sequel? If that is correct then how did your phone FINALLY get fixed?

  • @janishyt
    @janishyt 7 років тому

    Hi, I encountered the same problem. Everything else was working like the power, volume keys etc. and the bottom two lights were on but the touch screen was irresponsive on my galaxy S3. Tried everything but it didn't work. Finally tried your solution of removing the battery and then pressed the power button for one minute and re-inserted the battery after 5mins. Guess what, its working perfectly fine now. Thanks a lot for your video and solution. Its amazing how it worked. Thanks again :)

  • @maiacorbin7879
    @maiacorbin7879 8 років тому

    I paused an episode of Scandal to grab something from the kitchen, dropped it on the hardwood floor, then picked it up and started watching again. a minute or so after it started playing it died and was behaving as you describe (vibrating, volume buttons working, even responding to voice commands, but totally blank screen as though it was off.)
    I tried turning it off and on again with no look, took the battery out for a few seconds and tried again, still no luck.
    I then did exactly as you described and it's now working again. something about either the 5 minutes or holding down the power button seems to help. I guess there was some residual charge in the phone that needed to be used up or something? go figure. thanks! saved me a trip to the store!

  • @iancano

    I have an S5 and my screen went black too. I took the battery out for 5 minutes, put it back in, pressed the power button and the screen worked normally though the brightness level was set all the way down to the darkest point but that was easily fixed. Thanks for the video!

  • @darlabailey

    Another sure fire way to fix this problem is, after making sure that your phone is powered off, (Just release the battery and then re-install.) (You dont have to put the back cover on yet.) Hold the Power button located on the right side and the top of the volume button at the same time. Your phone will perform a Soft Reset. My question though is why is this happening? I have never dropped my phone nor has it had any water damage. Is there and Application that is the culprit?

    I have a galaxy s4 and recently I dropped it. It really fell only on the top left side then the screen hit a carpet but anyways, Everything seems to be working (like the buttons still light up and the notification thing still works and so on) except the screen. Like, if I press the on button, my phone will start to slowly turn green. It is really worrying me and I feel like there is no way for me to fix it. PLEASE HELP ME! Just so you know, I am a young, employed, teen who still lives with their VERY STRICT parents. If they find out about my phone they wont allow me to have one until I leave the house to go to college! No joke.

    Tried it with a Sony Z3 Compact, didn't work. But I've done something to my motherboard. I was replacing the screen on it, and before I put it back together I thought I would test the screen first to make sure it works. Well I plugged it in to the port back to front, and now I've stuffed the display adapter on the motherboard. I've tried the screen with another Z3, and it works. And I've tried another screen with my Z3, and it doesn't work. So it must be something on the motherboard. Is there any solution?? *cry*
