Samsung Galaxy Note 4: My screen is broken, phone still works. Can I remote view the screen?

Thu, 04 May 2017 13:34:36 -0700

Hi, I dropped my phone just right and damaged the top of the screen by the light sensor. The cracks propagated throughout the screen, over the coarse of 1 day the screen lost all visibility (as the liquid crystal leaked?). The touch doesn't work but the pen still does so I was able to control the phone as long as I could view some of the screen to activate screen mirroring and view on my TV. But now that the screen is completely black I can't see anything to activate screen mirroring. Is there any way to view the screen, HDMI or force to mirror through a remote of some kind? We will most likely scrap the phone but I need the data off of it. Any suggestions would be awesome.

Thanks -KB

Samsung Galaxy Note 4: Note 4 Screen Transfer

Tue, 28 Feb 2017 19:16:53 -0700

I have a Note 4 that is from Tmobile. It has stopped working and I'm thinking may be a motherboard problem.

I may try replacing that but wonder if I may have found a simpler (or impossible) alternative.

I have a friend whose Note 4 from Sprint has a destroyed screen and I'm trying to figure out if I can just swap my screen onto the sprint note 4.

Samsung Galaxy Note 4: What Frame for Replcement?

Thu, 26 Jan 2017 09:58:17 -0700

So, I recently switched to android and bought a used fairly good condition Samsung Galaxy Note 4 (SM-910W8), but the Frame is very damaged and I feel the need to replace it just to satisfy my needs, what are the differences of the AT&T and other models? I see iFixIt has a replacement frame but its AT&T. My model of the Note 4 is the SM-910W8, Its the North American version, and the phone was bought from Fido, as far as I know from the seller. If the iFitIt frame isn't right, can I be directed to another link for a replacement frame? Thanks in advance!

Samsung Galaxy Note 4: What caused this? Overload?

Wed, 25 Jan 2017 12:35:57 -0700

So that's it am I right in thinking this is an overload of electricity? I bought it to learn about fixing Samsung's but this doesn't look fixable to someone new like me. There's four burn marks inside the casing I'm not sure what their function is yet the worst one is next to the battery were a tiny piece seems to have come off as well. There is no corrosion so i was thinking not water damage? Or could this be done by something else? Is this recoverable /fixable? Tnx

Ok so here are the closest pictures I can do...

four burn places. Tnx

Samsung Galaxy Note 4: Why does my Wi-Fi keep turning on and off even in my home.

Mon, 02 Jan 2017 22:07:08 -0700

I have been struggling with my phone freezing up and I have done numerous things suggested here to correct it with only temporary success. I am wondering now if it could be related to my Wi-Fi constantly disconnecting and reconnecting. I have rebooted my internet modem. I have recently replaced my battery. I am not having this problem on my laptop. Thanks.

Samsung Galaxy Note 4: Wifi not turning on

Mon, 02 Jan 2017 00:51:43 -0700

When I try to turn on my wifi on my sprint note 4, it won't come on. It tries connect but nothing happens.

Things I did to try to resolve it.

Factory reset

Installed custom roms

Dialed #*0011# to turn off wifi power mode

Logging in safe mode to see if it was any apps causing the problem.

My last option is to replace the hardware, but what is it called, or what part is it?

Thanks

Samsung Galaxy Note 4: It took a bath with my 3 year old.

Sat, 22 Oct 2016 15:36:06 -0700

So I dropped my Note 4 in the tub. Instantly pulled it out. maybe in for two second.

I took out the battery and sim card. Then placed it over a heater vent for the night. In the morning I tried and it turns on but the screen in black.

If I call it will ring and since I know where to swipe I can answer it and talk with people.

When powered off and charging the little battery appears on the screen and show the % of the charge. So the screen actually still works.

Now from time to time when I turn it the screen will flash on for less then a half second. Enough for me to see I have text messages.

When I plug it into a PC I get a message saying the usb device has malfunctioned and window is unable to connect to it.

Any ideas on a cheap fix. would rather not buy another phone.

Samsung Galaxy Note 4: Note 4 only charges at an angle or pushed in

Sun, 16 Oct 2016 14:26:58 -0700

My verizon note 4 that I got last summer in 2015 is suddenly not charging correctly. A few months ago I noticed my battery was draining faster and the phone would just restar itself sometimes. I wasn't sure if that was a problem with the battery or something but I never changed the battery and just started to carry a charger around with me in case it drained while I was out. Recently the battery would stop charging at like 85% and I would have to take it out and plug it in again in order for it to keep charging

But now it wont work at all unless it's charging at an angle or pushed in hard. It was working fine last night and I tested the charger and wall adapter and they worked just fine on their own so it has to be a problem with the phone, right? I also looked inside of the port on my phone and nothing looks broken or out of place so is the problem the battery? It's charging now but everytime it's moved it stops, please help me.

How long do I need to press & hold the Volume up key, power button and menu buttons.

When I press the Volume up key and the menu buttons at the same time, It says on the upper left on the screen *Recovery Booting* is it a good sign?

How long it will take to finished the recovery? Also, do I have to leave it plug?

Also, do I need to remove the Sim card & SD card?
