      Outta nowhere my Note 4 remains black.

      There is life in the phone. Its still vibrating and the LED on top of the phone is still working.

      What I did notice at the same time is when i insert a charger. The phone vibrates and its LED light on top turns orange/red as usual. When ejecting the charger. That light still remains on.

      Booting in recovery mode doesn't work. But once again the phone is vibrating when I'm holding its recovery mode buttons.

      I have no idea what went wrong with this device. I didn't drop it and whatever.

        @evoli looks like a hardware issue to me. Maybe the backlight died.

          Will reinserting the display work? Maybe the connector lost Connection between the display and the motherboard.

            @evoli Glaxy Note 4 has a terrible battery. This is a common cause of the black screen. One reason Samsung put out a separate charging box for the battery.

            Things to try, leave the device on charge overnight. If no screen, you will probably need a new battery.

            I have tow of these and the battery was the cause on both, but luckily I had the battery charging box and proved that the battery was the issue.
