You can likely delete the file that controls the lock screen code in recovery, this is assuming that with root you also have a custom recovery. Using TWRP's file explorer navigate to data/system/gesture.key and delete it. Reboot. Done.
It has stock android

Hello,
I have a Motorola Razr Maxx that is running the latest OS, and is rooted. I recently broke my screen and cannot get past the lock screen so I can start my VNC server (to continue using my phone without the screen). I have searched through what seems to be all posts on bypassing pattern lock and I have not been able to succeed yet due to permission denial for super user in ADB, not having sqlite3 on my phone, and not being able to flash anything onto it in recovery mode.
Does anyone have any ideas on how to bypass the lock screen without any use of the touchscreen? I have debugging mode on, and I have a access to view what is on the screen via hdmi cable or remote viewer.
Thanks in advance.

Do you have the SafeStrap recovery? Root adb commands might work from there.

As long as your phone is rooted you should be able to do
Code:
adb shell su
.
If you've never given adb su priviledges before it may not work, in which case you should boot to recovery (if your rooted I'm assuming you have proper recover installed, and if you don't shame on you )
Any recover based on TWRP (SafeStrap, ClockworkMod, etc.) should give you adb access, you might need to mount the system partition though.

is there any way to boot to recovery without seeing whats on the screen? my hdmi doesn't recognize a connection until the phone is fully on
EDIT: I also never gave adb su priviledges, i rooted the phone shortly before breaking it.

Crap, I didn't think about that, if you have CWM then hold Volume up and Power, but it's going to be impossible to tell when it gets to recovery. If you have SafeStrap the touchscreen will have to work, if the touchscreen functions at all, then keep pressing the bottom left corner until you feel the vibration of the Recovery button.
Otherwise you might be out of luck.

How To REMOVE PATTERN LOCK IF ADB IS NOT ENABLE-
Cracking Pattern lock without adb is little Tricky and difficult,For Removing Pattern Lock We are going to use “AROMA FILE MANAGER”.
Aroma file manager is a file manager that can directly executed From CWM Recovery(Custom Recovery),And we can delete Password file from Mobile, to unlock our phone. So We need to install CWM recovery in our mobile phone for running Aroma file manager but unfortunately all devices have their different method to install it, which is based on their CPU type.

After Installing CWM Recovery in your smart phone download AROMA FILE MANAGER from here.
Now follow the steps below -
Download aroma file manager from here
Paste AROMAFILEMANAGER.zip in root of your micro sd-card.(Do not unzip the file).
Insert Micro-sd card in your device.
Reboot it to CWM Recovery by pressing volume down+power key.
go to mount and storage and mount all partitions.( use vol +/- key for up and down and Power key for select).
Come back in main menu.
Choose Install zip from sd card–>choose zip from sd card–>select aromafilemanager.zip–> Yes-install aromafilemanager.zip
After Selecting “Yes” the aroma file manager will run and you will see something like this-
now go in DATA/SYSTEM and delete “gesture.key”(if u have pattern lock) or delete “password.key”(if you have pin lock).
That’s it Now just reboot your Phone and Enter some random pin or pattern to unlock your phone.
Hope You Enjoy My First Post,If you Face Any Problem or did not able to install CWM recovery in your phone just comment your device model I will help you.
Thanks??

Hi there,
My girlfriend managed to broke her phone's screen to a point which it stays black even if the phone is on.
The device is password protected, the password however is known, but no way to type it as the screen is broken. Device is NOT rooted, nor does it have a custom recovery installed and more importantly, it does NOT have ADB/USB Debugging enabled.
I read some stories that it could be possible though Download -mode, but I haven't tested it yet.
She needs the photos from the phone and they were not stored on the SD-card, but rather on the phone's internal storage for some reason.
Working with Windows.
What can be done in order for me to recover them?
Without ADB you ate out of luck. You will need it to pull the files even in download mode.

So you're saying that it's not possible, by any method?
Please keep in mind that the device's buttons DO work so I should be able to get into recovery and/or download mode and flash the custom recovery so I can access the files.
Hello,
I have Samsung A5 2017, my cell has virus attack and every minute it restart automatically, all things are stocks so not able to reflash,reset device
is there any way usb debugging enabled from recovery/download mode ?
Not adb, but hold volume down while the phone is starting. A watermark will appear, "Safe Mode", the "virus", if not a root exploit, will not load and you could uninstall it. Also remove it from the device administrators & accessibility settings. If it doesn't work, hold volume up. If it doesn't work, press and hold the menu/recents key when the "SAMSUNG" logo and the brightness changes.

If you know your Google account details and you don't mind losing all your data reset your device.
It's unlikely it has compromised the system partition unless you were rooted.
If you were rooted then you may as well just wipe data with twrp.
Failing that reinstall the stock firmware.
nothing worked, i think virus at boot level, because can able to enter stock recovery, after factory reset result is same, tried with safe mode, but not work, not able to connect internet and reset device because it turn only 50 Seconds and rebooted, if i tried with odin than got error - FRP Lock, i also tried google device reset from web but it required internet connection on phone , so this option also not worked

If you have installed the correct firmware with odin and factory reset and your device still has issues then your problem is not related to a virus. More likely a hardware issue.

May be, but when i tried to install Custom Recovery CWM, TWRP it gaves message - custom binary blocked by frp lock
If i tried same firmware - then stuck without any reason - log say - recovery.img cancelled
why i think this is virus because i enabled usb debug and after auto reboot again its shows disabled , even i change wallpaper and reboot its showing same old wallpaper, means anything i do after 50 seconds revert back as it is, one kind device is locked

You can't install anything custom until OEM UNLOCK is enabled in settings.
Install the stock firmware with odin then factory reset in stock recovery.
You will need to enter your Google account details once the device has fully booted to disable FRP.

Yes, i tried , but not successes, after complete reboot i get 50 Seconds only, in this time period i can only enable usb debug, but when i enabled OEM unlock option, its automatically turn off without any error, and device reboot, so neither able to uninstall anything nor accessing via adb because 50 seconds its too less
even i connect with pc and try to format phone memory , after reboot all deleted file again available, even renamed files back to with same name

Forget about USB debugging it's not going to help you right now. I would try enabling OEM UNLOCK and then immediately power down the device BEFORE it reboots.

I am trying to root an Airwatch managed SM-T820.
As a first step, I was trying to unlock the bootloader and start the tab in download mode.
1. I went to Settings>Developer Options> OEM Unlock
2. Entered the PIN and unlocked OEM lock.
3. Shut down the tablet, booted it again by pressing Power+ Volume Down + Home
4. Pressed confirmation for the warning with 'Volume Up'
5. It greeted me with the following error
'Binary download mode blocked by MDM, Device will restart now.'
Is there a way to go further, without removing the MDM restrictions imposed by the Airwatch MDM from the Airwatch side.
I doubt it. The device must be a company owned device and there's a reason they put AirWatch on it. And if you could root it AirWatch would probably detect it anyway.

Root detection is not a concern, bypassing OEM unlock restriction is
I forgot to mention that this is a test device and Airwatch is also managed by me. I am brainstorming of options to bypass the OEM lock controls enforced by AirWatch. Whether AirWatch's root detection detects that the phone is non-compliant is not a concern here.
