    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.

    Saving this video incase the time has come for my Note 20 Ultra to turn black screen.
    This is not new to me as I experienced this already with my previous phone, Samsung Note 9. I was crying back then when I experienced it as the phone is sooo expensive, glad it turned on again.

    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!

    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.

    Was pretty skeptical when it got to the hitting my phone part but the massage step is what did it for me. Personally I would do this step before the tapping one in the future because it seems like it would "put something back in place" better. Thanks a bunch for the video!

  • @AntonVilanov

    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.

      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.

    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.

    it vibrates, calls, charges, appears to be connected to the pc, and through bluetooh, I can answer calls, but no images..

    Fantastic video! Thanks to you my mobile is now working again. If I had sent it in for repairs I most probably would have lost all my data, photos and contacts which I didn't get around to backing up. 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. 🙏

    Hey guys! Unfortunately, none of the steps worked for me. I was soo anxious all night. I was just using my phone normally, watching RUclips videos as usual when my screen just turned black. Everything else still working. So I contacted Samsung Support via their chat feature, got the first appointment in the morning for one of their authorized repair shops as my phone was still covered under warranty (they give us 1 year from purchase). LCD was replaced and all working now. I asked the tech guy why this happened, and he literally did this: 🤷‍♂️. LOL. I've been using Note phones ever since it first came out and this was the first time I ever had this issue. ⚠️ I suggest y'all get the replacement while you still have your phone under warranty for peace of mind :)

    @kapzek09 7 месяцев назад +2

    For anyone skeptical with the freezer method, it does work. My phone either had an underlying issue of a loose connecter or something I don't know, but rebooting with and without a charge, tapping, and massaging did not work for me (maybe if I keep trying). The freezer shit worked as I left it for an hour accidentally, but you definitely only need 10 minutes max if anything. After I took it out and saw the screen return I was ecstatic, but as it warms up, the screen becomes unstable (flickering) and after a few, the phone starts rebooting by itself. At this point in time, and even through this revision I have not fully charged it. I placed it in the freezer again and it worked again. Basically, cold good, warm bad. As I'm transferring my files out of my phone, I'm making sure that the phone is keeping cool in the freezer, looking like a dumbass, and as said, screen is starting to flicker as it warms up. It will probably keep happening, so I made sure to only do ANY action briefly then let it cool, same when transferring my files out. I finally finished transferring all my important files, so I'll let ya'll know what happens if I finally let it fully charge up if the "cold good, warm bad", is still the same.
    My guess is the condensation helped the power transfer between the connecters, but what do I know.

So i suspect this is an issue with firmware and done all force restart methods available on the video. In my case it was not successful. At last i decided to freeze it. So I took the phone and put it in a zip lock bag and kept in the freezer about 15 minutes.
    After I force restarted it and it was started in the first attempt.Still I cannot identify what is the technical reason for the issue or how it was resolved but any way it was saved my phone without a damage.Thank you # WorldofTech

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.

    Here's what worked for me:
    I tossed my phone on the bed this morning and the screen went black. I could hear sounds and vibrations but there was nothing on the screen. I tried restarting it a few times and it didn't work. I started touching and putting pressure on it and still nothing. I waited a few hours and just left it alone. I then decided to try the charger/freezer method and it still didn't work. After taking it out of the freezer, I started banging it on my palm. Then all of a sudden the screen magically came on again. This was about 20 minutes after taking it out of the freezer, though I was hitting/slapping it a few times every few minutes.
    So I suggest being really patient and just taking your time through all the methods. When you start touching/slapping your phone, I recommend just doing it all over the place and do it a little bit for only a few minutes at a time. Don't be too afraid to slap it hard on your palm or wack it a few times, that's what it took for me to get it working again. It came on when I slapped the top of it, but I'm sure it was just the way I hit it that made it magically come back to life.
