Hello! any help enormously appreciated.
My phone's screen has cracked, no longer responds to touch, and I can't find anyway to get my contacts and saved notes off of it but I need that info for my business.
Phone is a Motorola Razr 5 XT885
this thread had some ideas: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1694743
can I just try this sort of things even though it's a different phone?
I have some experience manipulating android devices but not sure how to get access to this things internal memory... any ideas?
Phone is lock screen activated, no SD card, running stock ROM and screen is 100% unresponsive. I can't find any software that helps me access files on my device, I"m mostly working with windows 7 or XP but could access a Linux distro if that helps.
get a usb mouse and connect your phone via OTG .use mouse to open the manu backup your data to your pc via wifi .if your screen cant see anything at all connect your phone to a TV set via hdmi

Hi everyone,
I have a friend with an LG KM900f touchscreen mobile phone. She needs to copy / access her old SMS's on the phone urgently (this phone is no longer used, there is no SIM and no data card, the messages are in the phone memory).
The phone is in "Music Device" mode when connecting to a PC via USB with or without the battery in place.
The touchscreen is broken and/or not responding so I can't change it into PC-Suite mode on the phone.
I have dismantled and cleaned and reassembled the entire phone - the touchscreen still doesn't work.
I need either a computer utility that I can force access via USB or Bluetooth to get to the SMS's on the phone - she just needs a copy.
Alternatively I have a WinMo 6.5 htc, so if anyone knows of a Bluetooth bluebug app that will let me force my way into her phone to get a copy of the messages without having to key or acknowledge it at her phone's end, that could be a way forward...
All the Mobile "forensic" software programs out there that I could find require the mobile to be in PC-Suite mode for access - bit hard with a broken touchscreen. Even their tech support throw their hands up and say "tough luck".
Any pointers in the right direction? Is the anything I can do to get the SMS's for her?
Thanks guys!
Hello all, I've been wondering lately if it's possible for an Android phone to be plugged into an external touch screen and be completely controlled via the external touchscreen?
By possible, I actually mean easily done via some basic or maybe not so basic code.
I know some Android devices offer mirroring via mini hdmi, but you usually have to either control using a remote or the phone. I'd rather have it connect through the micro-usb port, lay the phone somewhere else, and fully control the phone through the external touch screen.
I tried to search, but wasn't sure what to use for the search and all I found was ways to remotely control you pc using your device.
no i dont think so....a web application is there for controlling your phone via wifi with the help of router..
Airdroid try it..

Thanks for the reply. I'll give Airdroid a try, but I was looking for a more direct option. I'm thinking there has to be a way since the webtops/laptop docks seem to work well, but again those use mouses/keyboards for control.
I am hot on this idea too
I have a lilliput 4 wire resistive screen that i want to use a carputer.
I have seen one solution that is stuck in "coming soon" that requires some manual intervention called customgadz...google it. It's expensive.
I have googled endlessly to try and find a way to input the Liliput directly into the Atrix HD dock as a USB input but the touch screen needs to be calibrated.
So i've resorted to emailing liliput to see what they say.
My friend busted the screen on her razr, and we were trying to get her photos off of it with my laptop, but windows explorer wont recognize any of the files on it. anybody know of some third party software that might help? Unfortunately, she wasnt using an sd card, so all the photos are on the phones internal storage. The phone is unrooted and my computer is running windows 7
Try turning usb debugging on.

For me personally MTP always worked better and more stable under Linux than under W7. Try downloading a ubuntu live cd (has to be ubuntu 13.04) and try connect to the phone with the live system. 13.04 supports MTP natively, so it should be as easy as plug & play.
Just a thought: have you installed the motorola sw with the drivers before trying to connect to the phone?

maybe a silly question, but did she have the cloud sync turned on? They might be safe & sound & waiting for you.
ok so i got an old broken e4gt, the screen is non existent, broken in all possible forms, but i'm certain the internal computer works fine, so, i'm thinking maybe there's an app out there that can do this, i want to plug my htc one(m7ul) to my e4gt, using a otg cable on the e4gt and a regular usb cable on the m7, and use the m7 screen to control the e4gt, is there an app that can do this, or a tool/rom/recovery/anything? i cannot use the usual screencast approach cuz the e4gt has no part of the screen working or visible, and usb debug status is unknown, root status is unknown, now the m7 is rooted and customized, s-off and all, so, any way to take control of an android phone by another phone over otg? sorta like a usb otg monitor/mouse controller app? or any other way to take it over that i haven't mentioned? please help
reason: since the computer in it works i plan to use it and control it from my computer once configured
thank you and feel free to move this post if i put it in the wrong place
So I managed to get lucky, or so I thought. I crushed my Z3V yesterday, and the digitizer is stuck constantly inputting touches. I can wait a few seconds, and the screen will unlock itself. However, when I plug my phone into my PC via USB, it keeps trying to show up as a CD drive, and the SD card (that's no longer in the phone.) I can't get ADB or the Xperia PC program to detect the phone. It's showing up as a mass storage device, but I can't access the internal storage still. I'm thinking it's a PC driver issue, but I wanted to ask here if there was anything else I should try, or if anyone else had encountered this before. USB Debugging is OFF on the phone. Once the screen unlocks itself, it randomly touches everything until it gets to a screen with no touch inputs on it. (it's currently sitting at the emergency alerts screen lol.

If you can get an to work, you can disable touch input and use the hardware keys or a mouse to make selections.
