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.
