Apple Watch black screen ; still vibrates and battery at 80+%
Issue: Apple Watch series 4 has black screen
battery ok - 80%
still vibrates
os updates kept up to date
researched and tried the following:
-hold down side button and crown button for
10 seconds
30 seconds
still no Apple logo
-tapped around face and back of watch
-have voice on, and it will ask for passcode
I have tapped in passcode on black screen- no luck
-I do see diagnostics logs on iPhone under watch.
I suspect firmware issue, but watch is not accessible.
not sure if I should unpair and pair . from what I have read , this will keep the activation lock file.
or
reset watch via iPhone watch app.
iPhone 8 Plus, iOS 15
