Galaxy Note 5: Black Screen Issue / Can't See Screen / Display Wont Wake Up- No Problem 

Thanks for keeping it simple! I hate when I have to listen to a 10 minute video to get 30 seconds worth of information. It is because of this video that I hit the Subscribe button!

OMG, you are officially my 2016 Santa Claus! Called Sprint to end up with an apt on Monday, the day after xmas, so I wouldn't been able to take any photos or respond to any well wishes, did exactly what you said and now I'm back in business! I thank God for RU-vid and for you as well. Can't thank you enough and I will gladly be canceling my apt for Monday and doing something more valuable with that time and I will be mentioning this on my Sprint survey. Who needs tech support that can't offer any support, all they had to do was goggle it and find wonderful you and help customers without running them around like LA Lakers, lol! Blessings and Favor to you and everything important to you now and in the coming year!

dude your a life saver, keep getting this issue over and over along with horrible freezes. Sent it to a repair shop twice per Samsung's request and they "couldn't" find anything wrong with it. So upset they wont give me a replacement and honor the warranty. Thanks, now I know how to handle this recurring issue

Brilliant!! I tried pushing/holding random combinations and nothing worked. Followed your 1 minute video and back in action. Thanks a million!!

I tried this method but won't fix it. I end up fixing it by the " release battery method", I first drain the battery with the drain app from play store (every now and then the screen reappears, I took the chance to install and run the app), after the phone turn off because of out of power, I restarted it a few more times until it can no longer be turned up. Then I pressed and hold the power button for one night (with a rubber band and USB stick) to release all the remaining power. Next morning I recharged and started the phone, the black screen problem no longer appears ever since. The theory behind this method is that it will release the excess from memory, which is what's causing the black screen problem.

Idk how to thank you ...i freaked out when this happened...you're a life saviour

I tried this I didn’t really work for me I did it with all the instructions he gave I think it’s something else, but thanks for helping other people :)
