I was wondering if there was a way to access an 4.04 ICS device with a shattered screen, that turns on and displays things properly, but does not recieve any touch input. Specificaly I was looking for a program that could act as my 'finger' on the device, through the micro usb cord, as the phone seems to function completely fine, the screen works fine, but is unable to sense touches on it. The hardware buttons work fine on it, it does have usb debugging enabled on it, and the phone itself is a Moto Razr V (XT885). If someone could help me that would make my day, and it does have a pattern lock on it, but i do know my password. Thanks
P.S This might not have been to clear so if i missed something please let me know.

Hey guys
I'm trying to recover data from a broken Verizon Galaxy Note II, here are the details:
Stock OS & Recovery, never modded in anyway except possibly OTA updates
Powers up & has working battery
Blank, black display
Unresponsive or at least no vibration feedback to touch & pen input
Vibration feedback to button input
USB Debugging was probably never enabled
PIN code lock screen probably active. Friend thinks he remembers the pin
Is there anyway to remote into the phone via PC, or possibly use ADB to dump all the data from the phone?

Not without root. Data requires root excess, so thats not possible.. I believe remote PC requires it as well, but I am not for certain. Was everything on the internal sdcard? Or external? Does the phone come up when you plug it into the PC? What exactly are you trying to recover..

with the fact that the display doesn't work, and Debugging isn't enabled(even if it was, you'd have to verify the RSA fingerprint via the prompt). MAYBE try booting it into recovery and see if adb works that way, then you can just do an "adb pull /" to pull every single thing off the phone, or specific folders by changing / to the directory.
If that doesn't work, your only real option is swapping your internals into a Note 2 with a working display and using that to do it.
My LGOG has completely dead and nonfunctional touch screen, and it was left in charge only mode instead of something useful like MTP (and with no USB debugging on). As it stood I couldn't get any old files off of the phone, since I can't actually use the touchscreen (it otherwise functions perfectly fine, it can still receive texts and I can still see the screen, just not use it).
I figured the easiest option would just be using a mouse with an OTG cable to change the settings and then use something like Moborobo to grab the old files, but I just got the cable and I'm getting no function. Is there any known way to get OTG working? Preferably one that doesn't require me to be able to use the phone without it.
If not, does anyone have any other ideas that could help me recover the information on the internal storage (other than buying an entirely new Digitizer and replacing it?)?
If u have CWM Recovery, boot in and connect cable or use advanced/mound SD
Hi everyone
This morning my Galaxy Note III fell on the floor and ever since its display seems completely broken (its not split or anything, but it remains black after restart and its impossible to unlock it as the touch screen doesn't respond anymore). I already have a new phone but the problem is that I want to save all data like pictures and whatsapp histories not being on the SD card. I tried to connect with ADB but it keeps saying that the device is not authorized. Usually one needs to confirm on the Galaxy when connecting with ADB. But know, as the touchscreen seems dead, thats not an option anymore :-/
The phone seems still perfectly operable otherwise.
Is the any chance to access the phone??
Best regards
Samuel
I already tried to connect an external mice using USB OTG. It seems to work, at least the lights beam up, when I move the mouse around.
Unfortunately, I do not get any feedback on whether the phone is unlocked or not and of course, I don't see the curser as the screen is black :-/
Hi guys,
My screen recently died. Before fixing it at a specialized shop, I want to retrieve the data from the phone. Sadly the phone is pattern-locked and until I unlock it I can't access the data when I connect it to my PC. The screen is essentially dead. The image is almost totally black except for small layer in left top corner and the touch sensor is unresponsive, but other than that the phone works and receives notifications and so on.
USB Debugging mode isn't active on the phone and thus I can't replicate the screen of the phone on my PC through software alone, when I connect it via micro-USB. I also didn't think of this problem in advance and I'm not registered on Sony's FindMyMobile or any similar apps.
I tried using a HDMI-MHL adapter and I confirmed that the phone is indeed working because I'm able to get the phone screen's image on my TV. The problem is I can't actually interact with the phone because as I said earlier the touch sensor is not working.
The HDMI-MHL adapter I've used also seems to have a micro-USB port but that seems to work for power only. If I connect a USB-OTG cable on it and connect a USB mouse to it I get image but no mouse. If I connect the USB-OTG and the mouse, alone, I get a mouse cursor but I can't see what I'm doing (phone vibrates as I 'try' and draw the unlock-pattern blindly).
So, Sony Xperia Z3 Compact screen is dead, I wanna connect my Xperia to my TV via HDMI AND use a mouse at the same time to control my phone. Is this possible_
I also thought of another option... go to recovery mode and flash a zip that removes lock. I thought of trying step by step (switch keyboard and TV al the time just to get at point where I can find zip file and flash it). Unfortunately in recovery mode the phone does not allow to stream to TV. It only works when phone is after SIM lock.
Two additions: by removing and re-installing ADB on my laptop my phone is unauthorized. Only a matter of clicking on yes/allow on phone but that's not possible and TWRP 3.1.1-0 is installed.
Anyone any clue? I know I ask a lot but I'm searching the internetz for 2 days now and I'm devistated.
THNX a great bunch!!!
ciao

PS Copy/paste a part of the text from a guy from the internet who had exactly the same problem as I did but his thread ended a few months ago without result.
Just 30 minutes after my post I magically had all the dots correct and that blind!!! So turned on USB debugging and got rid of lock pattern. It was a nice three days of my life Guess there was no solution than getting lucky like I did or screen replacement and getting all your data removed.
ciao
Hello folks, my display broke suddenly, cannot see anything except a line and some green flickering when display is on. I have most of the documents and everything stored on my SD card but the Whatsapp data is unfortunately not backed up. There are a few pictures and chat data that I would need to access from there.
The situation is like this - Display broke but the phone works also touch apparently works too since Double tap makes the display light up in green (cannot see anything), and double tapping again makes the screen off. There are notifications coming. USB charging works. Shows up on the PC but the MTP won't show anything since screen is locked. I rebooted the phone which was the mistake !! because now it asks for pattern. I cannot unlock this, tried blind so many times but since I disabled the vibration. It's hard to get the pattern. Fingerprint scanner works but it won't unlock with it (so it just vibrates saying need to use pattern on screen due to reboot, the usual behavior)
Phone specs and OS are in my sig - Stock OS, Rooted, TWRP.
Can anyone please help if there's any way to access the filesystem ? It would be great if there's a way for accessing the data. My other request would be, can I make a data backup of the ROM as is with LGUP ? then reset it all before sending to LG for a full repair as I like this phone a lot.
Thank you for your time.
boot to twrp and then plug it in on PC and browse the file there? if you cant go to recovery from power off, maybe go to fastboot first then do the command to go to recovery.
figure out how to cast the display on a tv? i think the usb port supports HDMI output so maybe plugging it to a tv would work.
