iPhone 11 / 11 Pro Max: Black Screen FIXED! Try these 6 Easy Solutions First!

[@CoachMartinCA]

2/15/23, THANK YOU! My Niece from California is visiting us in Mississippi, and at some point before or during her flight, her iPhone 11 Pro went to the black screen of death. When arriving here we heard of the CATASTROPHE. Not being tech savvy, I went to KZbin. I watched a few videos, but no results. Then I came upon your video. As I watch, I tried each method (chuckling each time). After a few methods I realized the goal was to reconnect the "board" with the possible crack and I followed right along. The two thumb massage did the trick and her phone is (seams to) working normally. Although I might not see my Niece for the remainder of her visit, I am happy to be able to put a smile on her wonderful face. Thanks So Much!! Marty

Good job Uncle! 🤟👍

[@sonnia825]

I must have watched at least 12 different tech videos this morning to fix a black screen and totally dead iPhone 11 Pro Max which was working perfectly last night when I charged it. I’m thrilled to say that the tapping, massaging and slapping it against my hand plus the volume up, volume down and pressing power button brought it back to life. I’ve never seen this happen in all of my years owning an Apple iPhone!!! Thanks so much for your patience and expertise. You rock🌺

[@KekeHarris-gy4ge]

Mine won’t work but I know it’s on

Your tapping and massaging and slapping method and follow subsequent directions totally worked. This was the best video not having to download anything or connecting to MAC. THANK YOU!

[@stephaniesmith1226]

YOU ARE AMAZING! I just purchased my phone a few weeks ago and I was like what happened? Was getting ready to call customer service. YOU just saved me some time. THANK YOU SO MUCH!

[@momocamara]

Was the phone making noise at least?

[@brendamendez4990]

OMG THANK YOU! My phone just went totally black for no reason after a trip to the supermarket. I started trying everything you mentioned here and when I got to the tapping of the screen, the Apple logo just turned on. Truly a lifesaver. Saved me a trip to the Apple store. Definitely learned my lesson to back up my phone in case something happens. Thank you! :)

[@awindasunday3292]

👍 thanks

[@tammybraye]

Literally same thing just happened to me! Trip to grocery store, home and on charger. Great directions!

[@Thebennettstv]

The volume up and down & tapping the screen is what worked for me!! Thanks so much!! We thought it was dead but it was on the charger all night! Randomly stayed on the black screen!

[@mikemcmorris6078]

Black screen when I woke up today, searched online for help, this was the best resource. Phone came on with the first method - volume up, vol down, press and hold power button. Voila! Thanks so much!!!

[@john9762094]

I just put my iphone 11 in the freeze for 30minutes and i press volume up, volume down and power buttons and now it's working. Thank you so much for your help.

[@anaiis7577]

when you turn on the phone have you found that everything is gone i mean the photos and .....

[@lynnecraig3339]

Woke up on an international trip to find my screen blacked out. Thought it might be a power issue, which it wasn't. Went into full panic mode and found your video. Worked on the first try (and thanks for the tip to be patient!) You saved my trip! THANK YOU!!!!

[@thatjuniorchurchteacher9391]

A-HA! THE FREEZER THING WORKED!! I was really skeptical but also desperate. After putting it in the freezer for 30 minutes, I tried the button combo again and it connected to my computer! THANK YOU SO MUCH! I never would have thought of that.

[@SierraRucinski]

Do u set it in their as is or like do u put it in paper towel

[@oneness319]

I followed the instruction on google search by push up button release, and down button release then hold the home button over 10 seconds, it didn’t show the apple and still black screen, but I watched your KZbin video and saw how you did that, then I followed ,and it worked! Thank you , thumbs up for you!

[@jeepbeach]

Thank you , it worked . I have my phone back. If I didn’t have my iPad to see this on KZbin. I wouldn’t have figured this out . Good job!

[@Obetnarvaja]

My wife called me her phone screen blackout, so I searched on KZbin right away. I found this video. I went to her work ang check the phone . Only 2 minutes and I fixed her phone 😊. Thank you for the upload👏

[@WorldofTech]

That is awesome!

[@New_Girl_Nan]

My son was freaking out at 2:30 this morning because his phone was in the black screen mode. I tried the very first step. We just did the up,down, and power and it was good to go. Thanks for saving this mom.

Oh my god it did work for really

[@robertnaorem8061]

Its really working with charging method unbelievable.Thank You so much bro i was very worried

[@leilanipatrick6018]

This definitely works! I was pissed that my iPhone pro 11 just blacked out. Tried slapping the phone into my palms as instructed in the video. Viola! Sad that these phones are so expensive and yet we have to do this. Thanks man!

[@wovenreflectionsstudio]

Heaven sent! I tried so many techniques but simply pressing on it and tapping turned it out. Thank you!!!!

[@brandansmith4658]

I woke up to my phone not being able to turn on, tried these steps and bam, phone powered right back up. Thank you sir you saved me from lots of time and a headache!

3 years later this helped me out and I’m the one who fixes phones in my family lol. Thank you!

[@MrPARKERSBIRD]

After several tries of the volume and on buttons, the tapping worked for me. Thank you!

[@wildflowerchef]

Thanks for this. Freezing my phone for 30 minutes did the trick. It had run out of power, wouldn't charge. I couldn't get it to do anything until I tried the 6 steps. When I removed it from the freezer, for an instant I saw the Password screen, then plugged it in and in about 5 minutes heard the charge tone. It charged and works fine.

[@doanhle578]

IT WORKS!!!!! My iPhone 11 suddenly turned black, tried everything to fix it. Found your video and it turned on after the tapping trick!!!! Thank you!!!!

Thank you! I was camping trying to take pic of the sky, it was so weird! TY!

It’s March 31, 2020- was turning off a lifx bulb with Netflix on in background and my iPhone 11 Pro Max went to black screen with spinning wheel - after about ten times and plugging and unplugging and doing the tapping thing, and plugging and unplugging, the spinning wheel finally went away and three button deal worked - the apple logo came on and stayed on longer than ever, and then the home screen finally popped up. This is a give it the old college try, a bunch of times, before you do any kind of system reset/wipe-out procedure on your computer.

[@فاطمةالزهراء-ع4ح]
