How to Fix iPad Black Screen of Death_Won't Turn On

You were doing something important on your iPad, and suddenly, the screen turned completely black. Even no response when you try to reboot the iPad. What should you do? No worries, today I'm gonna give you guys four efficient solutions to get your iPad running. Let's dive in.

Method 1:Charge your iPad

 The first solution is to charge your iPad with the original Apple Lightning or USB-C cable to exclude the battery drain problem. For some older pad users or Handheld game lovers, using the phone too often can lead to battery drain. So if your iPad suddenly becomes a black screen of death, it may just be a battery drain problem! Trying to charge it and wait a bit more, your iPhone will have a chance to regain its life. And when it reboots and gets back to normal. I suggest you have your iPad battery replaced at the local Apple Store.

Method 2:Force Restart iPad

 This process doesn’t require a computer. For an iPad with the home button, to force restart, you need to hold the home button and power button at the same time until the Apple logo appears. For an iPad without a home button, quickly press and hold the volume up, then quickly press and hold the volume down, then hold the power button until the apple logo comes out. Force restart of the iPad is the easiest method but it won't guarantee 100% work, if you fail, please move on to the next method.

Method 3:Fix with ReiBoot Standard Repair(no data loss)

Software errors may also cause your iPad's black screen to death. Therefore, you will need a third-party tool called ReiBoot to help you fix your iPad iOS errors. This repair tool can fix more than 150 iOS system issues without any data loss. I put the download link below if you are interested. So download ReiBoot on your computer, launch it, and connect your iPad to your computer.

Method 4:Update iPad Using iTunes

 Last but not the least, if you prefer a free way to fix your iPad, iTunes would be a good choice. Connect your iPad to your computer with a lightning cable and launch the latest iTunes. Next, put your iPad in recovery mode first to avoid an iTunes recognition failure. Launch iTunes, and there’s a pop-up window shows on the screen. Choose the Update button and then iTunes will start to download the firmware which depends on your internet speed. But I do not recommend it because an update might not have been completed yet but your data will be lost. Okay, so that’s today’s tutorial on how to fix iPad's black screen of death.
