I appreciate any responses anyone has to help
Ok so i have my sisters samsung galaxy tab4 ( sm-t230nu ) which she brought to me today.
Her screen went black, lights up and all but it stays black in color. Up down volume buttons work and u can hear them working, power button works, turns screen on and off, TOUCH SCREEN WORKS, on certain areas u can hear the noise it makes when u tap on the screen and apps. I pressed the power button alone for it to restart, it restarts but does not show samsung tab logo or anything at all just lit up black screen. I even went on YouTube to memorize the hard reset sequence of buttons u have to press in order to complete the reset and i did manage to hard reset. But screen is still booting up on a lit black screen. I removed the back cover, unplugged the battery and tried booting it up and still nothing. BTW its full factory, no root roms or anything of the sort. I need help on what could be the problem. Only thing i believe might have caused this was a recent update on the system. My sister said a few days ago it gave her a notification about it and she clicked on yes. I dont know what version of android it had nor which it had updated to. Please help. Tablet is not that old. Thanks. If anything email me directly at [email protected] thanks

Have you tried getting into recovery or download mode? If those show, it's likely fixable. If you can get to recovery mode, it usually shows what firmware is on it. If that works, trying using ODIN to reinstall that firmware in download mode. If not, it sounds like a hardware problem. If it's not that old, it may be under manufacturer warranty still. Good luck.
Try to reseat the LCD cable, if it doesn't work, you may need to change the LCD. Search Ebay for LCD only or full LCD assembly if you're not comfortable to take out the touchscreen.

If tab has warranty claim warranty. I think this is a hardware issue.
I have restarted my note 3 and now I cant see my homes screen. It seems to take a long time to get through the second Samsung screen but eventually I can see my notification bar which I can still pull down and it I hit the home button twice it turns on S Voice so I know the screen is working. The screen brightness is up on full and when the screen is on its functioning fine. I can also turn it off without any problems
I just cant see my home page and my security pattern screen.
I've tried removing the battery hold in power on button for a few minutes then replacing the battery but that seems to make no difference.
Any ideas whats happened
thanks
Factory reset .
note 3 problem
hello my friend . this is the same problem that happened to me today in morning if some one help you pleas tell me what i have to do .
thanks
Hi, first of all this is my first thread, i hope you guys can help me. Sorry for bad english
I own a S5 G-900F. The phone was working fine until the screen started sometimes, ramdomly to turn black (with ramdom pixels in colours inside) like 5 seconds, then turns off and the phone restarts. This can happen 1-2 times a day while im browsing or doing anything, or even when i turn the screen on to unlock the phone, it turns on and this happens.
I think its a battery problem, it has 2 years and it might be giving low voltage (i have no idea), or maybe a motherboard problem? some water entered inside the case but im not sure.
Another thing i have to say, the "back" button works, as the menu button, but the "back" button has no light. This is weird and i think its related to the water problem. Both buttons work good, but the back button sometimes doesnt light up.
Thank you for the help
Hello
i am not able to post in the Dev section where the other bug reports seem to be , as I am new, so I am posting here in case it helps. If there is some where else I should, please let me know.
Running 7.1.1 N4F26I on an oppo find 7 x9076,
When the screen is off, and i press the power button to wake it up, on some occassions, the screen is weird; the vertical left half and right half are interchanged. T
So the screen which should look like [AB] looks like B][A
I am able to bring up the reboot menu by pressing the power button and touching the reboot icon (which appears to the right of where it originally should. he only recourse is to reboot, to revert to normal.
This doesnt happen every single time that the screen is off, but I am not able to reliably reproduce. I'd reckon this happens 1 in 10 times.
Other than that, great ROM, and very snappy on the Find 7.
I've got a strange problem with my Sprint Galaxy Note 3.
What's happening is that randomly when I hit the power to turn the screen back on, it will do nothing then the screen will stay blank. The phone clearly still works because if I'm on a call or listening to music it will still keep playing and the volume and other buttons continue to work.
When that happens I hold down the power to turn the phone off and then on and it boots up normally.
Rarely what will happen is the same behavior except the screen will go strangely green after I hit the power button, making the phone unusable until an off/on.
This happens sometimes multiple times a day, sometimes days without happening.
Phone is rooted, running OC5 on Android 5.0. Problem has been happening for months. Haven't made any system upgrades or installed any major apps so that isn't it. I'm thinking it is some kind of loose pin/wire but don't want to crack the phone open without a plan.
Any help appreciated!
