 S4 Screen Is Completely Black

Problem: My screen is completely black. My phone still gets notifications and vibrates and makes noise when it does. When I hit the power button, the buttons on the bottom (the pancake and arrow) light up, but the screen stays black. How can I fix this? Will I be able to replace it without paying a huge amount?

Solution: Did this proble m occur after you dropped your phone? If you dropped your phone then this could damage the phone display which may have happened in this case.

To troubleshoot this problem try to start your phone in recovery mode. It’s possible that you will be able to view the different options in this mode. If you are able to access this mode then I suggest you do a factory reset. Take note that this will delete your phone data so make sure to proceed with this if you have a backup copy.

If you are unable to access the recovery mode the this issue is most likely caused by a damaged display. You can have this checked and replaced if necessary  at an authorized service center. A replacement display usually costs around US$100.
