(edit: this is the duplicate actually https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCPE-43159
The realm owner reset the end in 1.12.0, so this gateway was not previously loaded and it showed a beacon beam when I loaded it. I built a platform around it and proceeded to throw an ender pearl into the gateway. The game never came out of the black screen. My coordinates indicated that i had made it back to the main island, however, i could not move, could not place blocks, and upon throwing another ender pearl it did not make the noise or teleport me anywhere. I attempted to relog, but now the game hangs on the loading terrain and i cannot join the realm.
This is very unfortunate, as I thought the gateways had been fixed per the changelog. I thought that resetting the end would lead to all good portals and possibly better realm performance.
The linked bug report has more information, but the moderator closed it.
Edit: as I was the only one online at the time, after remaining logged out for 10 minutes, the server had reset itself. When I signed back in, I spawned on the obsidian platform, which is as intended. Since it was a distant end gateway, it was not linked to the end gateway that opened when the dragon spawned, and therefore I could not have been stuck in bedrock. There were no obstructions on the platform, so it did not need to regenerate itself (although that may have been the point of failure nonetheless). I had the plan to bring chorus fruit with me next time, but since I wasn't stuck in a block I don't believe that will work.

Could you please add some more information to help us diagnose and reproduce the issue? You mentioned that "realm owner reset the end in 1.12.0" - do you have more information on this please? This isn't a Bedrock feature, and if the world was edited outside of the vanilla game then that may well be the issue.
Also, could you please provide a copy of the world save?
On Windows 10 you can use the Export world feature.
On Android or iOS you need to use a file explorer to navigate to Device storage > games > com.mojang > minecraftWorlds
On Xbox or Switch the only way is to upload it to a Realm, and then download the world on Windows 10 or Android/iOS.
If the world is larger than 10MB you can upload the world to OneDrive or a similar file sharing site, and then share the link.
No. I am not the realm owner. The realm backups are capped at 1.5GB although it should be far larger than that.
The end reset wasnt an edit, but a delete so that chunks had to be generated anew.
This is the same problem that was marked as fixed before and is the likely cause of this bug report as well:
I had been afraid to use end gateways, because of:
https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MCPE-40538
Since that was marked as fixed and the gateway was generated in 1.12.0, I thought that I would be safe. It was quite surprising to me that it would occur when going through an end gateway. It wasn’t quite the same as that bug description, because i wasnt teleporting back and forth. However, it was the same in that the main island apparently didnt load in. Also, it wouldn’t let me rejoin after i quit in the unloaded obsidian platfoem until the realm reset.
I was able to reproduce the bug in a single player world. It didnt work initially with the end return gateways and creative flying is much too slow so i just started going back and forth to the gateway that generated when i killed a dragon. It worked fine initially and then i got stuck. I was able to teleport into unloaded chunks going both directions on separate occasions (i was not ping ponging and could not teleport by pearl or chorus fruit). I also could not place or interact with blocks. . I uploaded a locator map that i opened when stuck. You can see that it does not load in the area nearby (L0 map). I tried to upload videos but they were more than 10 gb. It is much too hard to export worlds from iOS.
It struck me that since this appears to be a chunk loading bug, it will be client specific. It is a first gen ipad pro with 2 gb of ram.
For the single player world, i didnt have any problem opening the world again after getting stuck and i was safely on the ground in loaded chunks, so that may distinguish this from some of the reports i have linked.
If the Realm world save has been modified (eg deleting/editing chunks) then we are unable to help track the issue, as modifying the game save that way could have any number of repercussions outside of normal gameplay.
However, if the issue is reproducible in an unmodified, local world, then we are able to track and fix the issue.
If you have a world save that would be most helpful.
