Galaxy Tab A8: Black Screen? Won't Turn On? Easy Fixes!

[@AnnBreslin]

Went through the cycle three times with no luck but on the fourth attempt, hallelujah it worked!! Thank you so much 👏👏👏👏

[@abisuriyha1577]

My Samsung tab is working now after following some of your instructions. It really saved me a lot of time and money. Thank you so much😊

[@LeeBurns-j1s]

Tried the freezer fix for 15 min and it fixed it! Thanks! It saved me from buying a new tablet.

[@roland-if4zx]

i did that and it worked .But turning it off made it poo itself again ,3 times already. after turning back on the battery was flat overnight . beginning to think samsung are crap .

[@quilterine2129]

Thank you!!! Fixed in 10 seconds by fix #1, holding down both buttons. So kind of you to share.

[@CarpathianShepherd]

This worked! (so far!) I went through the steps in order and it sputtered back to life after the massage. Then I got some half-black screens and flickering, so I whacked it and now it seems to be working. Thanks so much!

[@Mindlord-to9wm]

Loved 😍 the whacked it. Bit faqued descriptive at the same time. I like 👍🏿 that better than the SMACK! 😅😅

[@bryana565]

OH MY GOD I LOVE YOU. AFTER A YEAR OF NOT BEING ABLE TO TURN IT ON, IT WORKED. the smack method got it lol. THANK YOU SO MUCH

[@noworriesnailart]

I've only had my A8 for about 2 weeks or so and came home to a black screen today. Thank you so much for this video!!!! The second fix worked for me.

[@JCBUBBLE22]

That's so weird. Same thing happened to me. I've had it for only 2 weeks and bam the screen is black

[@charissebugais4336]

Thank you so much for this. But why does this happen? It stresses me so much because my tab is still new. 😅

[@arianeiglesias4253]

Same.. I only used my tab A8 in just 1 day.. and that day I'm so worried. And I press the power button ,then after that, my tab is open,when I swipe the screen ,huh😔😔 unresponsive..it tooks more than a minute before it turn it back to normal.. This is my first Day..

[@michellferruccio]

I thought the massage method was silly and was the one that actually worked... many thanks for this!

[@ares7187]

Been trying to fix my tablet for a week. This video is gold. Thank you!!!!!

[@friendnamedjane8686]

WOW!! I can’t believe this really worked! THANK YOU!! I’ve been trying to get it to turn on for nearly 2 weeks. I had bought a new charger and tried all the reset buttons but I got nothing but a black screen with a circle showing it was 100% charged. I was about to drive 17 miles to a Samsung store to get it fixed when all it needed was to be smacked around 😂😂😂😂….I guess technology also needs an attitude adjustment here and there.

[@miketheman08]

The tapping and the button reset combo fixed mine. Thank you.

[@sophiemahan3219]

Same!

[@twxnty_]

Did you keep your data

[@marthaurbina6305]

Same😂

[@HiMokshith]

Same

[@RobinZwick-s3e]

Thank you soo much! Was online with Samsung for a long time and they eventually said I would need to buy a new one. It stayed black. Your third and fourth options made it work! You are awesome!

[@bilalzahid8709]

I salute you dude,your fix trick saved my A8, i was about to go to samsung to claim warranty,but you saved me alot of time and money as well. Well done dude. Thank you very much a hundred times

[@MargieDuerr]

Wow. Taking the case off and the restart procedure totally worked!! 🤯 Thank you so much!!! (my device was charged to 100%)

[@ishantrivedi5588]

Did that problem persist or never happened again?

[@lanabanana8093]

thank you so much I watched other videos and read instructions but nothing worked so I started losing hope until I came on the 2nd step🥰

[@srastitiwari2474]

[@tommcdonald53]

Thanks so much, nothing worked until I massaged with a lens cleaner! You are fantastic and fixed all our tables ❤🎉

[@p.kruger5555]

The Massage Method worked. Laying a piece of cloth on top of my screen fixed it. Many Thanks !!!

[@Muhammadbinjaisal]

[@cazzercazzer320]

You little beauty ...it worked with the taps.....Thankyou very much....just got my little boy outta big trouble with his Daddy 😂❤

[@nanakay784]

The massage and the reset did the trick for me. Thanks you so much for making my little girl happy again😊.

[@Evangelical_Shield_Maiden]

THANK YOU! Your tips worked when nobody else's did! My tablet had died and I didn't use it in months and it would not come on despite how much I charged it. I got it on finally with the tapping and massage. Once it was on, it was at 1% charge despite charging for hours. It was like in a dormant stage. Now it's charging and working. Strange.

[@Sp1dahh]

Hey I mean this with every fiber of my being...Thank you so very much..my daughter was really bummed about her tablet ..you brought it back to life🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@stephanielyles3941]

[@itzlizzy30]

Thank you so much for the freezer trick it saved me!!!❤❤❤

[@jasvin1289]

[@chrzunra]

You are a hero, it worked after the freezer and pressing the lower right area , thanks!

[@Eeecee19669]

Thank you!! Worked. Tablet would vibrate multiple times, like it was turning on, but still black screen. Held it longer as a last resort before pulling off the back cover. It worked!!

[@kevinengberg]

Wow! This really worked! Seems my screen connector was slightly disconnected and the massage method did it 😊

[@pinkrage9224]

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!❤❤❤ It is the second time that your instructions have helped me to resuscitate my poor old Samsung tablet! God bless You!!!🙏🤗❤️👏💐

[@glynisgordon3997]

Thank you so much!! Turns out the battery was totally flat and the tablet refused to turn on, even with the charger pugged in for hours. Your double pressing of the buttons did the trick, we are so grateful 🙂

[@estelamolina2238]

THANK YOU I WAS SO WORRIED THAT IT WOULDN'T TURN ON You deserve a like

[@scottpartlin4325]

The “massage” method ended up working for me. Great video. Thanks for helping

[@amyg7347]

ugh...thank you finally. you just made my day!! the only site that has worked after a couple hours of trying. great job!! thank you. i hate technology stuff

[@ErinMartinsen]

Thank you! I couldn't believe it when my screen came back after a massage. My 8 year old is relieved he's no longer in trouble too!

[@Kyo8882]

Summer heat right now is no joke and my other half forgot his tab inside the car, the next day it doesn't want to turn on anymore. Omg! Thank you very much for this video, mahalo Nui Loa🙇‍♀️🤙

[@PrashantYadav-dc1jb]

[@sumeiyaswalah6596]

[@theresamitchel7056]

[@gab-xs4eq]

My tablet is not opening for weeks and i watch this and i try the tapping and button reset combo and it works thank you very much you save my life

[@sarahtonks8224]

THANK YOU!! my Tablet restarted itself and then it had black screen and would not charge or turn on or off... this has worked brilliantly and I'm now back in business

[@yongjiawen8482]

Omgosh this is so helpful!! Thank you so much man

[@springjoy9167]

I followed yr first step and it worked. Tqsm for yr tips👍

[@dididothat-bn7jc]

This has been the ONLY one that has worked for me, thank you sooo much. I thought I was cooked

[@ingridthorstad8436]

Wonderful! The massage worked for me. Thank you.

[@Dominator9572]

I tried prying/heating my screen off to replace my USB power port. I started on the wrong area near the screen board(opposite USB port side). It separated the board from the screen and I also had a bubble expanding crack. I just bought a new screen to replace. Plugged it in and blank, and only makes charge sound. After this video, I'll try some of these tricks. Is this tablet this crappy? Smacking, freezer, and massaging? Is there an issue with the spring contacts inside not making contact? Just Did the hold reset. YESSSSSSS!!!!! It came back to life. This thing has stressed me out. I thought it was me. Thank you so much!!!

[@lisak3159]

I'm in the exact same boat as you but no luck. I don't want to glue screen back down until I get it to turn on. , 😞

[@monarobinson2189]

Thank you! The force restart was all I needed to get up and running.

[@vicrazgriz]

Worked for me, thank you

[@dannyboyd1299]

Just understand if you have a f-ing blank screen you're not going to see the logo lol

[@Al3xand3r2294]

Nothing worked until I started to smack it, did a reset and BAM! the screen turned on! Thank you!!!!

[@meisterwu8922]

Apparently my tablet just wanted to be smacked because that's exactly what did the trick. I have absolutely no idea how and why that worked but i thank you from the bottom of my heart, magic man.

[@dukexanderhernandez6981]

The second one worked flawlessly THX!!

[@izuwaninsaniabdulizuwan4817]

Thnk you brother u helping me so much bcz it work tu me

[@Craig-yn8st]

The freezer method worked for me. Very thankful.

[@dukexanderhernandez6981]

You don't know how much this helped me THX SO MUCH

[@Of-Tha-Dead]

Yo this worked. I habe been trying to get this thing to work again for a year. It happened once before when I was in tha hospital, but this time seemed final. I beat it, massaged it, beat it some more, reset 10 or so times in between all tha love taps. I was about to stick it in tha freezer and I smacked it real good one more time... It has come back to life. Amazing.

[@yossibenshabat9096]

Amazing!! The finger trick worked the first time

[@ilayaraja8332]

Thank you so much my tap problem solved just few minutes in ur videos

[@darkdragongaming6931]

Thanks bro. ......finally got a feeling of relief

[@stephanielyles3941]

Thank you so much. My 4 year old was a mess crying. She had her tablet laying next to her when it went black. We both thank you so much. Your a life saver.

[@Billionairetony254]

How did you do even mine went black

[@tsholanangmabasa2825]

Thank you so much. Fix 1 helped. You saved me from buying a new screen

[@AndrewFosterSheff69]

LOL step 1 did it for me, just using the power and volume down buttons! I watched all the way through just in case it happens again! Thanks.

[@Doorso80]

Had a half black screen and the massage method did the trick! I totally didn't expect it to, but it did! thanks for the video!

[@megisosedap4212]

Thankyouu its working 😭😭 I was worried if I need to buy a new one 😢

[@SynteconlineAuSupplements]

I'll keep this short...I love, love, LOVE this tablet. kzbin.infoUgkxLNmVocUk8tnSkwWIlYSNFzWRIaFTBuzS The picture quality is amazing and there are so many features that this technodino can't wait to learn! My only (very, very minor) complaint is that I ordered this in bronze and they sent me black. Yes, it should have been corrected, but we were only in country for a short period of time and I didn't want to run the risk of not getting a new one in time. I'm such a fan of Samsung Galaxy tablets that I'd rather suck it up than lose out on having it. In the big scheme of things, this rates an irritant factor of .0000000001 out of 1000. In other words, I'm not looking at the colors when I use it, so I got over it very easily.

[@ritchelcabrera133]

Holy shit!! The massage worked like a charm. Mucho thanks!!!!👍👍

[@maga21XD]

best video ever! the massage method did it for us! THANK YOU!!!
