It there a way to use android without a screen? - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, I have a bad idea.
I have a LG g2 that has broken screen but it power on, and it was also rooted.
Is there a way to control the phone (for example, turn on wifi or Hotspot) without the screen?
Just curious if I could give a new life (like 4g router?) to a broken phone

I unrooted my moto x pure, and now my wifi doesn't work at all

My brother just barely handed down his phone but he had it rooted. I unrooted it and everything is working just fine, except the problem is when I go into the wifi settings and click the on button, it instantly slides back off. I don't know anything about rooting, so does anyone know what could be going on? I've been researching for over an hour and can't find a single thing.

Need some advice on a replacement phone

Ok guys been a while since I've been on here, so I'm sure this is answered elsewhere but need some good advice.
I have an S5 on Verizon my wife and I have been using as our primary source of internet using tethering for the past several years. Obviously the phone is rooted and still running KitKat 4.4.4 on the NI2 kernel. When phone updates and loses root I just roll it back.
So long story short and to the point, we are needing a new phone. This one's performance is degrading and a new battery is still not holding a complete charge for very long.
Looking at the newer Galaxies but needing to continue to be able to root and use the hotspot feature as we use nearly 100GB per month in data. Any suggestions on hardware, etc. is appreciated.
My go-to sources are:
www.kimovil.com / www.devicespecifications.com / china-prices.com (They got Band support in the US covered as well, but ALWAYS check by yourself too) -> https://willmyphonework.net/
I can easily list a bunch of devices, but it'll be your task to figure out if they are supported band wise in the US. Battery/price/quality-ratio-wise:
Le Pro 3 Elite
Coolpad Cool1 Dual
Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X

Wanted: Phone for Root/Recovery (custom) that will work on Verizon network

After 4 years of using the same (Verizon) devices, I recently bought a Verizon Tab S3 (SM-T827V), since it was 50% off. I was disappointed to find that the boot loader was locked, and that there was no viable root or custom available. Stuck with that, unless a root/recovery becomes available. And it seems like the S7 I was considering can't be rooted either (and just as important, Custom Recovery).
So I need a phone recommendation (new, not used) that will accommodate Root/custom Recovery and also work with Verizon. I was hoping for Samsung, but that doesn't seem possible.
Thanks for any ideas.

ps keeps turning on on its own

I have a galaxy s7 from tmobile

I turn it off multiple times a day but it keeps turning back on and I cant find why
I went through every option I know to disable gps ( I don't use it and it kills the battery a lot faster)
I disabled it in the settings but for whatever ****ing reason it just keeps turning on
how can I find out why its happening?

No LTE after Android 10 update

Hey, so I just got the Android 10 update on my Pixel 2 XL, and I no longer have the ability to use LTE. I can only switch between 3g and 4g. Even though I still have 4g, the signal strength has gotten pretty slow. This has never happened to me before. I have a Pixel 2 XL unlocked, straight from Google, on the AT&T network. Thanks in advance!
