Need Help XDA orbit - Touch screen broken - General Questions and Answers

Well I have managed to break my touch screen on my 02 XDA Orbit , not a big problem as I have a spare XDA Orbit.
The problem is I need to access to the broken one, the phone powers up into the unlock screen, but I cannot get any further due to the touch screen being dead .
I have loaded mymobiler onto my PC to try to control it through that. The program requires an acknowledgment on the phone so that the application is installed, cannot acknowledge this because of the broken touch screen.
I would like to know if there is anyway of unlocking the touch screen, so that I can control the phone using keys or through mymobiler.
Any help is appreciated, I have used the search engine and google, but cannot find if it is possible.

For what purpose do you want to access the phone?
If you got a spare LCD-Display, just replace the old one and you can acces the device.
Or does your data get lost if you take out the battery?
Another solution for exporting contacts and other data is Jeyo Mobile Companion. So you can save your data and repair the device afterwards.

Thanks for the reply. I have several applications on the phone that I need info from, so that I can register them on the new phone.
I do not want to remove the screen from the working phone just to get at the stuff I need. I might end up with two broken phones
There must be a simple way of deactivating the screen lock feature

How to read my sms while touch display is broken and BA is locked?

Dear all,
I need seriously help from you. My Qtek 9090 (Blue Angel- "BA") has broken display and is locked (without password). I was one week abroad so I had to have my BA on for whole week (I was able to answer incomming calls with HW button). But now I am at home and I need to somehow read my SMS (at all 28). The phone is still on but I am unable to unlock it. Touch display is broken so it is impossible to unlock the phone (I am not able to tap or slide the button on display).
I just need to read SMS :-( Can it be done via PC by any software? I have 2 months old backup at myphone.com but it seems it doesnt help me to actualize this backup without co-operation on my BA.
I have already ordered from ebay.com new touch display but it will take about 1 month to receive it. I am also scared when I will change the display my storage from BA will be deleted :-(
My device has Windows Mobile 6.5 Build 21888
Pls help, I will be happy for any answer.
Thank you for your suggestions.
Try using MyMobiler software (link in my signature)
It will setup via just pluging in usb & runing program from PC should show you scren image allowing you to unlock via PC cursor & navigate via PC cursor & keyboard.
Refer to developers site for more details.
Thank you Mister B, I have already found My mobiler before your post here, but it really helped! Anyway thank you very much! Its great software!

[Q] Backup device, Broken Touchscreen, Device stuck in HDD mode not activesync.

Hi XDA experts.
I have found myself in a bit of a quandry.
My HTC Ignito touchscreen failed while I was on holiday. ( no entry possible at all =-(
I just go back, and have been trying to backup the phone.
I have read all the threads I can find on the subject, and tried to install EveryWAN and Mymobilier software. The problem I have is that the device is stuck in HDD mode, as I set it to go to that mode automatically ( with hindsight a stupid move......)
Therefore EveryWan and MyMobiler will not connect to the phone.
I want to backup my contacts and download the holiday pictures.
I have seen some mention of adding a file to folder 2577 on the HDD to autorun, is it possible to use this trick to set the device to activesync ?
I am a programmer by trade, so dont be afraid to suggest something complicated and off the wall, I will try anything to get my contacts back !
I have ordered a new HTC Desire to replace it, maybe there is a way to swap data across directly ?
I have been on to HTC Support, and they are out of ideas, they say there is no way to change the activesync mode remotely =-(
Looks like i am screwed =-(

[Resolved] [Q] Retrieve contacts with a Bad Digitizer and Screen Lock Code on Touch Pro 2 SOLVED

I have an HTC Touch Pro 2 that now has a bad digitizer, and I am unable to use any touch-required functions. I only wish to retrieve the contacts from the phone in a way that I can get them on a new phone, even if it just means re-entering them into a new device. I just do not have any back up of the contacts, and need to be able to access the list on the phone.
I cannot "slide to unlock", so I am unable to navigate the phone or install anything on the phone. When I connect to my PC with an SD card it will connect in Mass Storage mode, and I can access the SD card only (not the phone system files). If I remove the SD card, and attempt to connect with ActiveSync/Windows Mobile Device Center I am prompted to enter my screen lock code on the phone - which I cannot do because the digitizer is broken. I do know the lock code, if there is any way to enter it without using the touch screen.
I have been searching around quite a bit, and I found a program called MyMobiler that looks like it would work, if I could get past the lock code. I have also downloaded the Windows Mobile Developer Power Toys, which also is unable to connect to the phone until I can enter the screen lock code.
Just to clarify, I have thoroughly read over this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=852189#9434585
Is there ANY way that I can get access to the phone long enough to even just physically read and re-enter my contacts? Being able to import them would be nice, but I just don't have any backup whatsoever. Thanks for your help.
****UPDATE****
Solution: By pressing 911 on the keyboard, the phone assumed I was trying to make an emergency phone call and brought up the pin pad. I backspaced the 911, and typed in my unlock code. Now I am into the phone, and I can use the keyboard to navigate, and I can transfer the contacts to the computer. So glad I figured this out, and I didn't need to pay anyone to fix it for me. Good luck to anyone with the same problem.

Samsung Broken Screen Unlock

My phone has a broken screen (and probably a broken touch sensor) and I need to unlock it (pattern lock) to get the data off of it. It is a Galaxy A70 running Android 11 and the latest OneUI. Both the Samsung Find my Mobile web app and the Android/Google Find my Device site aren't able to see that it is connected to the internet. My Google WiFi router clearly shows it being connected however. Although sometimes the Samsung Find my Mobile site sometimes reads "online", it fails to unlock/back up the device. I have tried connected with ADB to unlock the device, no luck. The Kies and Smart Switch utility are no help either. I am also unable to use Window's Phone Companion app to display the screen or view any data whatsoever.
I have thought about using a keyboard/mouse to unlock it but without screen output I have no chance. I have looked into replacing the screen, which I am fully capable of, but I don't want to spend 60+ dollars on a new panel just to get the data if I can find another way. I don't even plan on using the device after I repair it, I have another one on the way. I couldn't even find a well rated listing for one on the web anyways.
To make matters worse, none of my data was set to back up to the cloud, although I was pretty sure I had set it to. When I go to view my cloud gallery on Samsung's website, it insists that I allow the action from my unusable phone. Or I delete the phone from my account to access it. I can't do either from my position.
I would really like an out of the box solution. I have thought about using a mouse to input the pattern lock by practicing on another A70 available to me and repeating the action the the broken device. I will take any measures possible to avoid an unnecessary cost.
I really appreciate any help whatsoever! Thanks!

P30 Broken Screen

Hi, My wife dropped her P30 and now the screen is broken. She has a new phone as the contract was up anyway, but I would like to try and get acess to the device somehow to retrieve some data. The screen is just black - no interaction at all. There is a passcode on the phone as well which was unlocked via fingerprint or code.
Is there any software that will allow me to mirror the phone and access it? All the software I've tried so far wants you to install an app on the device itself which is obviously impossible.
Any ideas?
Thanks
replace the screen, is about the only option.
a phone repair center may be able to recover the data with a spare screen if they have one available to boot into the phone, obviously passcode etc will be needed to access the data. even hisuite will need the phone to be unlocked before any backup is possible.
