Fold 4 inner screen shut/ black

[TommyJT]

After updated one ui 6.1.1, my inner screen got issue. Front works fine.

Situation:

Once restart, i can unfold and the inner screen turned on for 30-40 sec. Then shut down as well as the front screen. Then fold it, after 30 sec, front screen turned back on but no sound. Inner screen keep black. After restart, it happens as above again.

I saw some posts here having same issue and said about the hardware problem. I dont think so. If there is a hardware issue, the inner screen cannot be turned again. But i can do it againa and again.

Anyone suffering this issue? Thanks.

I would try wiping the Partition Cashe on the phone
See if that helps

Turn off your phone.

Connect your phone with a USB cable To PC or another Samsung mobile

You will see the charging icon on your screen.

Wait till it shows charging with battery percentage.

Next, press and hold the Volume up and Side key simultaneously.

You can press the volume up button just before the Side key.

The Samsung Logo followed by
Samsung Galaxy appears on the Screen.
At this point, release the keys
Phone will boot into Android Recovery mode

In Android recovery mode, using Volume keys, choose “Wipe Cache Partition” .

Use the power button to accept that.

You will then see its cleared.

Then the top option, reboot phone.

Press the power button to reboot the phone and then sign in normally

Yes i tried. And also factory reset as a new phone. But same.

Does it work for u? Thanks.

[Glenntech]

Well the only thing you can do is send it in for a repair
A factory reset will remove all data. So it's got to be some sort of hardware problem

Not hardware problem, i still can turn on inner screen for 30 sec, everytime reboot.

I have the exact same problem - https://eu.community.samsung.com/t5/galaxy-z-fold-z-flip/z-flip-4-inner-screen-wont-wake-after-closi...

Its 100% a software issue.

[TommyJT]

Yes, agreed. So i dont want to send my phone to them.

Im just waiting the next update come out but seems they delayed. If not fix after next update, i will go iphone after.
