Can you see WhatsApp messages deleted for everyone?

WhatsApp has no feature that shows a message deleted for everyone; it is replaced with “This message was deleted”. On Android, if notification history was already on, the notification text may still be visible there. iPhone has no such history. Apps that claim to show deleted messages are a privacy risk.

Phone works but the screen is black: what to do

If your phone rings or vibrates but the screen is black, the phone is on; the problem is the screen or its connection. Force restart and charge it first. Shine a torch close to the screen in the dark: a faint picture means a backlight fault. If it started after a drop or liquid, the screen is usually replaced.
