Not sure what the deal is but if I get a missed call or text and am not next to the phone to see it,the screen stays lit till I swipe it ???
This drained a chunk of my battery today when I was away from it for like 3 hours.... there has to be a way to not have it stay lit ?

I've noticed lately that after I end a call or lock my phone and then go to use it again the screen will stay black, HOWEVER I can see the lights between the hard keys light up and the actual screen LCD come on but stay black.
Has anyone else experienced this? Sometimes it will come back by itself and other times I will have to take the battery out to restart it
yes and quite offen actually, it happend on the first day i got the phone.
Happens to me if the up time is 30+ hours. Usually I just press the home key and it comes back around.

Hi,
just dropped the TB and battery flew out but nothing seem to be broken. The phone turns on and the lower buttons light up but screen is blank/black. Sometimes the back light is lit but nothing comes on. When I call the phone, it rings. Any idea to how to fix or is it gone?
The one year is not over so I guess factory warranty is still in place but it is rooted. can I unroot if I can't see the screen?
TIA
My galaxy S3 is showing a very weird problem. I was using the phone and before reaching home the battery when completely flat. When I arrived home and plugged the phone to the wall charger the screen remains dark, black. Now the battery is full charged (green light) but the screen remains to the same estate. When someone calls me the phone rings. When I plug it to the computer I can see the files inside the different drives. I reinstalled the OS that is 4.3 but still same problem. I didn't drop the phone and It didn't have any shock.
That is weird. I am thinking of a dead screen but before going for a chirgucal operation on my beloved phone I wanted to ask if that couldn't be a software problem.
Happy to hear from your experiences.
Boot into download mode, volume down + home then power button. If the screen is dead in download then it is hardware.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
never heard this type of problem
try to go into recovery and check if it displays anything
If successful do factory reset
In download mode i can see nothing. That is really weird. I am letting the battery drain completely and i will check. Thank you for your replies
I wanted to upgrade so far what i am getting. The screen while dark, black is reacting to touch actions: for exemple when i lock the phone with the power button i can hear the lock sound;when i unlock with the lide action on the screen, I can hear the unlocking sound. I think that must be a weird system problem. If the screen was broken will it react to such touch actions?
Lide=slide. I can actually take a call with the slide action on the screen. When someone calls me i just have to slide my finder at the proper place on the screen to take the call. I need help please.
Most probably its the hardware. Your LED seems to be ditching you. And yes a bad led can still response to touch despite of being black all the way. Actually it's the digitizer that responds to the touch NOT the LED itself.
In your cas3 so far from your feedback I can say that you are having a bad LED everything else including the digitizer is working well.

Thank you i w
ill try it check it tomorrow. I will try to install another firmware, may be 4.0.4. The one i was using i just installed it 2 days ago.
Very strange problem. I have a LG G3 D855 for 1 and a half years now(rooted)
My phone was at a very low percentage, and I heared it go out. Happens to everybody, nothing strange so far.
I connected it to the charger and I turned it on, i heared the startup noise, but nothing happened. No pincode screen or unlock screen. Stuck at LG life is good screen. I actually was able to take a screenshot, i heared that sound when pressing power and volume down key. I know it is just right away from the main screen, but why is my screen freezing at startup logo? Tried to hard reset and clear all data, then I get a secure confirmation (verify) error. then my led starts to flash red and blue. Battery taking out and still no success.
How to fix this? Also screen is recognizing touch at the startup screen (when it fades away i click on it and it turns brighter)
EDIT: I blindly went into whatsapp and i am able to type and answer calls blindly wtf. Now I got a blue screen, everything is operational, the screen is blue now
Edit: I can actually blindly unlock my phone with my knock code, and hear messages coming in. The screen just freezes on life is good. I can hear it is unlocked wtf is this.
My S6 Edge has been cracked for a very long time but works fine until the other day I put the phone down and went to sleep only to wake up the next morning to see that each time the screen is on, it is blank and flashing. I can't see anything on the screen. The phone turns on, charges, switches off, can relieve calls etc. I just can't see what is happening due to blank flashing screen. Would anyone know how I can fix this or is there a way I can mirror the screen onto my computer so I can see whether it's an app that's causing this or something?
Better take it to a service center.
