    Hi,
    I have a s5 about 6 months now, last night it dropped a few inches from my hand to the table while it was in a case. and now the screen just stays black.

    I can feel vibrations and sounds and stuff when I press the home button and volume and stuff so theres some life in the phone.

    There is no visible crack on the screen that I can see but when you plug in the charger instead of being the usual green battery bar its more like a reddy orange kinda colour and the logo is discoloured to, after that the screen is so dark you cant see anything..

    does anyone know how much it would cost to have this fixed or if its as bad as it sounds?

    Thanks

    If its within warranty and there is no physical damage visible then try get it repaired under warranty. Sounds like internal components might be damaged rather than the actual screen.

    thanks guys, I chanced my arm sending an email to Otterbox while I was at it, no reply yet.

    is there any way to put my back up file i had made onto another android phone with the call logs and everything?

    sorry if thats a ridiculous question.
