Hi,
I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 (i9100G version) with a broken screen. The display is blank and shows nothing, but I know the phone is working properly because of the sounds played (boot sound and notifications).
I have come through this tool: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2786395 , but there is only one problem. USB Debugging is not enabled. The phone is not rooted, and is fully on stock (ROM and Recovery). All I want is to only enable USB Debugging, and I can use ADB to do everything else. I tried to boot it into recovery to see if that gives me ADB access, but it boots normally. I tried to boot it to Download mode to flash CWM through odin, but I can't see anything and it still boots normally. I pulled the settings.db file from another S2 with the USB Debugging enabled, but I need ADB to push it to the broken phone. I read the solution in the link above, but I don't know how to sideload or how to edit a kernel or anything like that. I have access to another S2 (same version), rooted, and with a custom recovery (CWM) if that will help in pulling a file or anything. I read so many threads, but none of them had the exact problem, or worked when trying to do what they said. What I can do now to enable USB Debugging?
Please help. Thanks in Advance
EDIT: I was able to go to recovery mode and ADB Shell, but I cannot get root permission at all to edit build.prop or even settings.db

Hi all, hope one you learned peeps can help me out.
Have the I9100t telstra S2 that belongs to the mother in law, screen broken and touch dead. I need to get a backup of the photos and whatever else on the internal storage.
It powers up, i have managed to get it rooted via odin and i can get it into download mode.
Unfortunately debug is not enabled so i can't use the pull command thru adb as the s2 doesnt show up when i do a adb devices command.
It does connect to odin so if there is anyway to do it, i guess it would be thru that?
Does anyone know how i could possibly enable debug to do an adb pull or backup?
or is there a rom out there that can be flashed via odin and has debug enabled by default?
any help will be greatly appreciated!
hello there,
I'm using Galaxy S1 I9000, and my screen just got broken, and shows nothing now (black screen).
I have found this PC software that allows me to see my android device screen Via my computer.
Unfortunately my "USB debugging mode" wasn't turned on, so I am not able to use this software.
I'm able to get inside CWM mode, but I do not know how to enable this option .
so my question is, is there any way to enable usb debugging mode through CWM on the device and ADB on my computer??
I have tried to use the ADB software but when I enter: "adb devices" it shows no devices.
any solution to my problem without buying a new screen?
I used SLIMROM with JB, has CWM 6.
Thank you.
Hi guys!
I have a Galaxy S3 with broken display and (MHL tested) broken digitizer.
Device works, I get home screen but can't unlock.
I would rescue the smartphone and I think that the way is using ADB (with [email protected], screencast or similar).
I don't have alternatives right?
The problem is that I can't use ADB cause actually it does not have USB debugging enabled.
Just a couple of questions:
Can I use ADB in recovery mode (without USB debugging)?
With MHL I get broadcast in home screen, not before, is that normal? How about MHL in recovery mode?
I can only imagine a solution: Go in recovery mode and execute a "no-look" change of ROM installing something with USB debugging option enabled by default.
Do you have other solutions?
Who can help me doing this? Does exist a "how-to" somewhere? Which ROM?
Thanks!!
Hello,
i had the same problem, i could solve it. Here is how i did it:
Click.
I first had to root the phone and also get a recovery on it (i think it enabled ADB).
The problem is the broken digitizer. You can't use the USB-Debugging because you need to confirm a popup from Android (i think it depends on the Version of Android).
Hope it helps.
I have a Verizon SCH-I435 gx4 mini and I forgot my pin. Android device manager can't help me put it into lost mode and over ride screen lock. The interesting part is when I boot into recovery and go to factory data restore as a last option it says it's in display mode (MTM). The phone boots into Odin mode just fine. On all my phone I always turn on USB debugging which I believe if you have a pc you need to enable to use Odin correct me if I'm wrong. So if there's a way to keep my files safe and use my phone again it would be appreciated.

Let's make Points
1-Odin Doesn't require any USB-Authentication such as Debugging Enabled
2-Only adb Requires Debugging
3-Great Thing you enabled it.
Now you can Apply two ways.
One you can boot into recovery and go into adb.Now on PC install adb and connect it to your phone(Go read a Tuto or watch a Video on how to do it)Now remove the locksettings.db file from /data partition(Use google to find the exact location)
Or you can pull the locksetting.db copy to your PC and crack the code using hashcat.But I recommend the first one.Next Time be cautious and if you don't know how to delete files using adb go read how to.

Hi,
I was able to install custom rom on my v300s
but found out that twrp wasn't installed.
I used my computer adb to open twrp and installed custom rom
Then i found our something was wrong, any way to install twrp from now on?
i tried to open twrp with adb again,
when i use adb devices I was able to find lge~~~ on there.
but when i try fastboot boot twrp, it shows awaiting for devices then nothing happen
(I set my phone as ptp mode then usb debugging was on.
on my laptop the phone was resister as portable device and using MTP usb driver, wasn't able to change it to adb driver)
then i tried to boot my v30 as bootloader but pressing volume down key didn't work.
any way to install twrp from this state?
sorry for my bad English
I think you need to ensure you have the correct drivers installed. Even when they are, you need to also check in Device Manager that the correct driver is used when the phone is connected. It also sounds like you don't have USB debugging enabled.

Ah the usb debugging was enabled.
I found something called qfil from qualcom and was able to reinstall my bootloader img file with it.
then i was able to connect my device as ADB devices
Thanks btw
