- | [summary] |
+ | [summary]Is the screen on your Google Pixel unresponsive? Does it seem like it's on, but is only showing black? Read through these steps to get fixed up![/summary] |
- | Is your Google Pixel |
+ | Is your Google Pixel unresponsive and on black screen? This will go over several common occurrences when it comes to your Google Phone not responding and showing a blank screen. The problem can be caused by either software or hardware causes, so read on to determine the right solution for you! |
- | == |
+ | == The Basics == |
- | |
+ | Before undertaking any of the more time-consuming solutions below, here are a few fundamentals to get you started. |
- | * Pixel 5a and earlier: Press and hold the ***Power*** button for 30 seconds or until it restarts. |
- | * Pixel 6 and later: Press and hold the ***Power*** and ***Volume Up*** buttons until your phone restarts. |
+ | * ***Force Restart your Pixel*** |
+ | ** Press and hold ***power*** for 30 seconds to force restart for Pixel 5a and earlier. |
+ | ** Press and hold the ***power*** button and ***volume up*** button for Pixel 6 and newer. |
+ | * Plug your Pixel in to a power source (charger). It could be dead or in low battery mode. |
+ | * Verify the display is black rather than too dim to see. Move to a darker space if needed. Issues with auto-brightness or inability to adjust brightness can point to fault in your Ambient Light Sensor. |

+ | == Dirty or Obstructed Sensors == |
- | |
+ | Along the top edge of the display, several sensors are positioned to report on light levels and distance to a surface (your face, the inside of a pocket, or other). |
- | If your phone doesn't seem to be charging, check that your charging setup is functional. |
+ | * Give your screen a good cleaning, especially along the top, where these sensors live. If the sensors are smudged, the phone might think it’s dark out and lower the brightness. To fix this, clean the entire phone screen with a damp microfiber cloth. |
+ | ** Use [product|IF145-305|screen cleaner] for more stubborn grime. |
- | * Ensure that your phone is plugged into a working outlet and that the brick/cable setup are outputting power. |
- | * You can check by charging another device with the setup. If it doesn't work, try replacing the charging block, cable, and/or using a different outlet until you find a setup that works. |

- | |
+ | If you recently repaired your device, make sure the gasket around these sensors if there is one), is properly placed. |
- | |
+ | == Sensor Fault == |
- | |
+ | In addition to the ambient light sensor, the proximity sensor may also give you hassle. That's the one that tells the display to turn off when you but it up to your face to make or answer a call. Because these can both change screen behavior, they can also generate unwanted behavior. |
- | |
+ | * Check for liquid damage along the top edge of the phone. Despite the rated water resistance, the earpiece is a common location for liquid entry. Even a small drop can cause damage to these components and they are often near to the speaker opening. |
- | # To boot into Safe Mode, press and hold the ***power button***. After a few seconds hold the phone's ***volume down*** ''''button. Continue to hold it down until you see Safe mode on the screen. |
- | # If the screen is suddenly responsive in Safe Mode, try uninstalling apps one by one starting with the most recent apps you installed before noticing the issue. After uninstalling each app, restart the phone back into normal mode to see if the screen remains responsive. If Safe Mode doesn't fix the problem, move on to the next possible cause—you've ruled out third party software as the issue. |
- | # To uninstall an app, navigate to the Google Play Store app > Profile icon on the top right > Manage apps & devices > Manage. Once there, find and tap on the app you think is causing the issue. You will want to tap Uninstall to remove it. |
- | # Once you’re done, exit Safe Mode by holding down the ***power button*** for 30 seconds or more. Some Pixel phones require you to tap ***Restart***. |

+ | * Unfortunately if this is the issue, the sensors may be mounted directly to the logic board. Other times it will likely be on another small flex cable with other small components. |

+ | == Display Malfunction or Damage == |
- | |
+ | === Solution: Replace the display. === |
- | == Screen Hardware Issue == |

- | If your phone is still not responding and has a black screen, try plugging it into a computer. This will provide more insight to your phone’s condition as it notify you if it detects the phone—letting you know that the phone may be functioning but the screen may not be. |

* USB debugging is an optional setting that will give more feedback when the phone is connected to a computer. Unfortunately this setting can only be enabled when your screen is visible and usable. | |
+ | * Your unresponsive black screen may be caused by a broken screen from a repair attempt or other accidental damage. Look into a [parts|Google Phone|replacement screen|itemtype=screens] and follow the associated [[Topic:Google Phone|iFixit guide]]. |
+ | * Display damage may manifest as a visible crack in the glass, but other signs of display damage on an AMOLED display include black blotches, lines or general display anomalies. |

+ | == Logic Board Malfunction == |
- | |
+ | The logic board is the hub for most of a Pixel's functionality. Any number of the small components on the board may have failed or become damaged and is a safe assumption of cause if nothing else on this page has worked. |
- | A factory reset is a last resort when it comes to the software bugs as this will completely wipe the phone of all personal data and reinstalls the phone’s operating system. Since factory resets will completely wipe your phone’s data, make sure you have a backup of your phone before attempting this. |

- | # Turn off the phone by holding down the ''power button.'' |
- | # Press and hold the ''power button'' and the ''volume down button'' until the phone screen shows ''Fastboot Mode''. |
- | # Use the ''volume buttons'' to navigate the menu to highlight Recovery Mode. Press the ''power button'' to select. |
- | # Press the ''power button'' and the ''volume up button'' together at the same time. Do not hold these buttons down. |
- | # Use the ''volume down button'' to navigate to ''Wipe data/factory reset.'' Press the ''power button'' once to select and then use the ''volume down button'' again to select ''Yes'' when it asks you to confirm. |
- | # Once the process is complete, restore the backup by logging into your Google account from the ''Settings'' app. |

+ | * [link|https://www.ifixit.com/Search?doctype=guide&query=iPhone%20logic%20board|Replacing the logic board] is often the most practical solution for a DIYer whose board has failed. |
+ | * Contrary to popular belief, the board itself can be repaired. However, it requires specialized tools and microsoldering know-how.
