the USB Default Config. in Development options is ignored by the System UI.
When connecting the device to PC, the phone asks for USB Behaviour (Charging only / File transfer / etc), even if the default USB behavior is set to File Transfer in Dev. Options.
tried with USB debugging "on" and "off".
- Model: RMX2001
- Build number: RMX2001_11_A.38
- realme UI version: v1.0
the idea is to add the possibility to transfer data (photos, videos, documents) to pc in case the screen gets broken...
The system won't allow that due to security reasons because if that was possible then anyone would copy your phone's data

Understood, although I still have some questions about the whole thing:
- if the option was still available, one would require physical access to the device. What I believe most of us carry in the pocket or so.
- in case the display becomes unresponsive due to damage, how can the owner get to his data then?

Whenever I plug my phone in, set it to USB mass storage, it always sets back to Motorola phone portal with a little roll back icon in the menu bar.
I need the USB mass storage to grab some files off my atrix. How do I fix this?
I was having a similar problem until I uninstalled Motorola Media Link.
close everything related to your phone. I had the same problem once and it turned out I had a cmd window open with adb commands that had been previously run on it. I'd close EVERYTHING related to your phone, restart the phone then start again.
Like someone previously mentioned about Media Link, if you right click the icon in the system tray, there is a menu in the pop-up that gives you the option of selecting what the device does by default when you connect it. By default, the option is set to Phone Portal, but you have the option of setting it to that, Mass Storage or None.
I'm not 100% certain that the second option is Mass Storage, but I know that it can be changed so that your phone won't default to Phone Portal. It should just be a matter of exiting Media Link rather than uninstalling it that or merely changing your settings in it.
I think he means the glitch where no matter what you choose on the phone itself, it will always default back to the phone portal option before it mounts the SD card as a usable USB device in Windows Explorer.
I suppose that's possible, but without being more specific, the problem could be resolved by changing the MediaLink settings. Obviously, if the problem is the one you are referring to, my suggestion would be irrelevant. =p
Anyone get PAW server working in place of Moto Phone Portal? Gawd it sucks!
1. You have to use IE or FF, which is cool because I already use FF, but when I click on File Manager it warns, "File Manager access supported on Internet Explorer only." WTF over they can't make up their minds?
2. I finally get File Manger working through IE of course and then it takes me to some DavWWWRoot web folder???
3. So I copy a couple music files - then go to the phone using Astro - find the files in my /mnt/sdcard/ folder - copy the files (won't let me cut or move) - find my "Music" folder deeper on the SD card - copy the files there - go back to the /mnt/sdcard/ folder and delete the now duplicate files.
Holy smokes is this thing awful or am I just making it awful?
Please someone help me get the much better PAW working!
I am new to Android and NFC and I just can't seem to find a straight answer to this question
If I have an NFC reader/writer device, can I get it to detect my NFC enabled android phone, so that I may be able to transfer data from my phone to the device?
My question on this page,
<< Link in the attachment link1.txt>>
has some links to other discussions about this topic. Most of them hint that this not possible (with the official Android version that comes with the phones), but I have also read that card emulation mode by an NFC device (such as a phone) is based on ISO standards ISO 14443-A and ISO 14443-B, which are endorsed by the NFC Forum.
Moreover, I know that a phone can act as a card writer, so what is the difference between the phone sending out data as a card writer and another NFC reader device reading this data, a phone acting in P2P mode and sending out data and another reader device reading this data AND a phone acting as a card (in card emulation mode perhaps, if it is at all possible) and another reading device reading it? (I am talking about non-rooted android phones only)
So if I have an NFC enabled phone, and USB reader/write, such as, say, this one,
<< Link in the attachment link2.txt>>
can I get it to detect my phone as an NFC device and transfer some data from my phone to the reader/writer?
---EDIT---
Note: I am not talking about getting the phone to work as a secure payment system or getting it to act like some other card or anything like that, my question is more basic: If I want to send out my custom data (say a string "ABC" or some number 1234) from my phone using NFC, can I get an external reader/writer to detect it?
Hello everyone,
My aunt gave me a chinese smartphone (n9000 i9220 pad) with the lcd screen broken.
I tried to control it from my pc with this software ([email protected]). It NEEDS USB debugging to be activated in order to work. Since my aunt obviously didn't have it activated, I could only see the smartphone's screen when I entered to recovery (Where i think debugging it's activated by default). So I need to activate the USB debugging option with no image from the smartphone. To archieve this, I found a solution that consists in editing manually a file on /system, but since it's not rooted, I don't have write permissions on /system.
I'm not gonna die if I can't do this, but I want to know if it's really possible.
More info:
Exact model: e1809l_v75_gq1008_ov5647_v20
*I can access the smartphone with adb, so If anyone needs more info that I could retrieve from it, just tell me.
Hey there,
Recently my Galaxy S3 fell to the floor and the display broke. Now I'm desperatly trying to recover all of my data from the internal phone memory. The memory has 16gb in total, but when i copied it to my hard disk drive i could only copy 2gb. It seems that the camera folder (DCIM) is the only folder taht has been completely restored. Is it possible that all other folders are pin locked? Or is it more likely that the storage is broken? Anyway, what i really need to recover is the phone calendar, since not all entries had been synced with google calendar. I can't find ANY calendar file on the internal storage, and i've searched most common places (data/data/android.provider.calendar etc.). My research showed taht the only way to access the phone with recovery apps is when the debug mode has been activated. Since the display is broken there's no way for me to activate it.
In short, my questions:
- Why can I see only some of the internal storage? (2/16GB) -> broken or locked?
- do you have any idea how i can restore the phone calendar since there doesn't seem to be any calendar file?
- is there a way to activate the Debug mode with a broken screen?
I consider buying a new display just to be able to access the files. But since i don't want to waste any money i need to be 100% sure that this works. But the fact that i've only been able to copy 2GB from the internal storage and that i dont seem to find the calendar files makes me doubt that this will help at all.
additional info: I'm accessing the phone via USB cable without a sim card.
Thanks for any help.
Edit:
I also tried connecting the phone to Kies (i never used Kies before) by activating the "download mode" on the phone by pressing some buttons at the same time when turning the phone on. Kies seems to recognize something but it just keeps on saying "connecting to phone..." for hours. I take this as another indication that the phone might be broken beyond the display.
Edit2:
I found this:
inaccessible folders: folders you won't see due to lacking permissions, e.g. those in /data. To protect your apps' data, those folders belong to the corresponding application, and are only accessible by the app (in the context of file-permissions; please see the tag's wiki for closer information on those). To make those visible, you need root access on your device, and a file explorer supporting that (e.g. ES File Explorer)

Is there any way i can get root access to the phone with a broken display?
Interested in pulling all the data off of a Pixel XL that has a broken screen. It lights up in some places, but doesn't respond to touch. The fingerprint on the back responds but since the phone has been restarted, it requires a keypin. I have all google cloud/backup services disabled.
Is there a way I can manipulate the screen with a dev kit or other software while it's connected to my PC? I know the pin, obviously, but I can't enter it to enable file transfer for USB.
Thanks
@garrisonxci
If ADB ( read: USB debugging ) is enabled on phone, then several PC tools are available to bypass and/or even remove FRP lock via ADB, e.g TenorShare 4ukey.

4ukey deletes all data from the device, that doesn't help at all but I appreciate your reply.

I've heard of the apps called "Broken Android Data Extraction"
I think it made for recover the data of the broken android phone. Hope this one will help!

This is for Samsung phones only and it costs money. This doesn't help either, but thanks for your reply

Actually you would need to disassemble the device and to a JTAG to the eMMC. It does cost money to get everything and some skill is required as it's no easy task. Any other method may be troublesome trying to retrieve data
