You can't actually figure anything out when you get only a black screen.
Have you tried getting your phone into recovery or download mode ?
But i seriously doubt that it would help you. Since in your case it is most probably a hardware problem(display) and that problem can only be solved by getting a new display.

I myself had this problem with Galaxy S3. But luckily it was under warranty and it was replaced by the Dealer. Unlike your case I didnt dropped off my phone , it just suddenly happened

So it is best to go to Samsung Service Centre and they will help you.

My phone is doing the exact same thing right now! Thats why im actually on here.
were you able to figure anything out? my phone is not under any sort of warranty

One of the results when you drop your phone is a black screen. Is it still on warranty?

I just had the same problem and googled for the answer. I found that just simply holding the power button for over 10 seconds, it works (it turned off the phone and I just needed to turn it back on and everything works as normal now).

FIX...
With the battery removd press and hold the power button for exactly 1 minute. With the battery still removed put it down and just leave it alone for 5 to 10 minutes. After 5 or 10 replace the battery then power up the device and you should be good to go
