So I really don’t know if anyone still uses these old things anymore or if anyone knows anything about them. But the fact is, I’ve recently acquired my grandma’s Samsung Galaxy Note 4 because it was just sitting around their house and no one cared if I took it. Only problem is, the screen does not show anything. Ever. I’ve looked up some videos about how to solve it, and they all said to:

  1. Take the battery out
  2. Hold power button for a couple minutes
  3. Put the battery back in and turn it on

This has not bean working. I just wanted to know if anyone has any better suggestions here, or if I should just replace the screen.

And if it helps, the LEDs at the top/bottom of the screen work, and I’m getting notification sounds from it. The screen is the only issue.

    That device is almost 10 years old at this point, and if it wasn’t used a lot, I’m not surprised this is happening. I’d take it to a repair shop to see if it’s salvageable.
