I bought this shitphone and whenever I use it, the screen goes black.
I can still hear noises like it's still working, the screen just randomly goes back and doesn't come back on until I hit the power button and unlock the phone again, but any time I initiate anything on the phone the screen just goes black again.
What could be the issue?
The phone.
probably water damaged
take it apart and check out the internals, blow it out with compressed air

I already opened it up and nothing is wet at all.
It must be some kind of software issue, but I can't actually use the phone enough to do a factory reset on it.
get the stock tar files off the internet somewhere and then flash those via Odin if you can't factory reset from recovery

This. If it's a used phone it is definitely water damaged.
Get a bunch of pic related and leave the phone with them in a dry environment overnight, with the electrical components exposed.

My guess is the battery or something like it.
But if you still have time for a backup in fastboot or the recovery or something do it now. Then flash the factory ROM via fastboot or recovery.

Install Gentoo

look for a custom ROM for that device. It's always a good idea to go custom with shit-tier android devices because official support is usually a joke.

Alright, I'll look more into custom ROMs. Thanks guys. I don't really have anything to lose since the phone doesn't work anyway.
