did you turn the brightness all the way down in settings? do you have the screen curtain on? you can check the screen curtain by tapping twice on teh screen with 3 fingers. You can check the brightness by going into settings, and then going to general, and then brightness. If the slider is down, focase on it and then swipe up.
