The LCD is broken on my galaxy s4, I'm trying to recover the files on it using adb..
adb does not see the device, I'm pretty sure this is because the phone is not in the usb debugging mode..
I've tried a few things around the net about holding lock+home+volume down but without a display I cannot be sure I'm doing it right..
Is there a way to get the phone into usb mode without having to use the screen?

have a broken screen, trying to pull files to put on my new replacement s3 but i dont have debugging checked, i tried using adb in recovery but that didnt work either is there a way to pull files from my phone without having debugging checked?
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.
Hi,
I was wondering if anyone can help with my poorly phone?
My phone broke a couple of days ago and the screen is black and digitizer has broken therefore I’m unable to use it. I don’t think there is any point trying to get the screen fixed but it will cost as much as a new phone would. But what I would like to do is backup the data on my phone.
I have not got USB Debugging enabled and when I connect my phone to the PC, the drivers are installed and I see my phone as a portable media device but there are no files or drives to display the phones data through windows explorer! Please help!?
After some research on the internet I have downloaded [email protected] and ADB.exe but the phone is not recognised (I believe this is because USB Debugging is not enabled).
I then did some further investigation and managed to book my phone under fastboot in recovery mode and selected ADB mode, this connects to my PC and new driver is installed but I am now not sure how I can use this mode to backup my device? And enable USB debugging so I can use my phone on [email protected]
Anyone able to help?
Thanks
Sir,
Please wait until mods will move this thread to the device specific forum for more relevant answers.
Stand by
Good luck

Hello there,
Recently my Phone Screen died. I tried restarting it. Now i can only do 3 things.
1. Let it ring with smartthings
2. Use the Emergency call where it beeps
3. Restart the Phone with the Button combination
I am currently trying to get into recovery mode so I can backup my Data.
I have the most recent drivers installed. The Cable I use works with 3 different Phones.
I also tried a USB C to HDMI but had no luck. USB debugging is disabled.
ADB can enable USB debugging as far as i know.
Is there any aproach that i could try ?
a wireless mouse to enable adb and make the back up
Sorry, I should have specified that the screen is black.
What do you want to back up?
