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

My touchscreen just crapped out on me a couple weeks back. I've bought a new phone and was able to retrieve all my documents/pictures from my One XL as it functions perfectly in all other aspects other than the touchscreen.
I was hoping to turn this into just a not so portable PMP having it permanently sit in the dock so I can watch movies and youtube while on my PC and control the phone via the usb port with my mouse. I tried my OTG cable with a usb mouse but that doesn't seem to work.
I also tried android screencast which while it mirrors the device's screen onto the PC doesn't actually grant any control over the device.
I was wondering if you guys knew of a way I can bypass my lockscreen via using the ADB as that's the first hurdle I need to get through.
I have my wife's old S3. The screen is broken and the touch sensitivity doesn't work.
It is unlocked and I can connect it to my PC monitor with an MHL cable and see the screen. This requires a charging cable to be plugged in for it to work (not the case with the S4 and S5)
I have a USB keyboard and mouse which will control it using a USB OTG cable. If this is plugged in via the MHL cable on an S5 it doesn’t control the phone, so I guess the S3 will be the same even if I could get the screen to display after removing the charging cable.
I have a Chromecast so I could screen cast but would need a way to set this up on the phone first. Then I could just use the USB mouse and keyboard.
I want to install tasker, wake on lan and connect the phone to a wireless network. I will then use the phone to remotely wake a PC by sending it a text message (can’t set ARP entry in router). I already have this set up on an S4 at home. I have an S5 spare but don’t want to waste it for this purpose so would like to find a way to configure the S3.
Does anyone know how I can somehow access the S3 screen and also control the phone at the same time? I have seen a post referencing needing USB debugging but with very little other info.
Or, just in case, does anyone possibly know a way to run wol when the router doesn’t support it e.g. use a raspberry pi etc. so I can just forget the phone method?
I am trying to get some help for my sister who needs to get her data from here Galaxy S6 but her screen is cracked with no visible display. In order to access the data she needs to put the phone into USB debugging or click her phone to allow her laptop access. With a broken screen she is unable to do either of those, and she has also tried using Kies, a newer Samsung app and that thing where it remotely detects your device but none of it has worked.
She has an otg cable with TV-Out but it isn't her S6. Would using another otg cable as a bridge between her phone and her TV-Out otg cable work? I would prefer a more simple solution than this as I am not in the same country as her so I'm not there to see what is going on for myself.
Thank you,

Unfortunately you can't do tv out on the s6 via otg, it doesn't have that function. The only other option is maybe connecting a mouse or keyboard via otg to try and allow access.
She does have a mouse she can put in but if she can't see the screen she can't click the prompt to allow access. There isn't a way of circumventing that prompt to get access to the files?
Hello everyone,
I would really like some help advice/experience from other here regarding the HTC U11. I was just using the device normally one day and the screen went black completely. I think the touch screen is dead as well, as it doesnt seem to respond when I attempt my usual pattern unlock from muscle memory. I am sure the device is still working normally as I had... accidentally connected to emergency operators, could still use Whatsapp Web and my PC does show HTC U11 but I am unable to change the option to MTP to transfer my files.
Does anyone have any advice on how I can access my data through enabling usb debugging/ changing the connection mode to MTP? Apart from repairing the screen only.
While I am not sure about the software options. I am attempting to output using a Type C to HDMI hub to output display and use a mouse to access the phone. Since it was rather hard for me to find answers about the compatibility and usage so I was hoping to get some experiences so can quickly attempt this method when the few cables I purchase arrive.
1) Are these type C to HDMI cables generic? I have seen some articles saying there are type C to hdmi with MHL and others with digital output and I confused if those I bought will work with the U11. (Seller says works to Macbook, Xiaomi, Huawei P20)
2) Are these adapters simply plug and go? Do I have to unlock the screen or install any firmware (as I clearly dont have a screen haha..)? Does this apply for both the HDMI output and using a mouse
3) Would I specifically need a SMART TV with HDMI to get output out or any monitor with HDMI would work fine?
If anyone have a working U11 and using HDMI to Type C would really love to hear from you!
Thank you for any advice/experiences in advice!
Hello, I am a new user of this forum and wanted to find out is there an application for downloading on a computer that allows you to use it from the phone on the computer display? I'm asking because the touch screen it does not work on the phone and I have to enter an important application and make a copy backup and I wanted to do it on my computer.
if only touch doesnt work, use your usb C to usb adapter (came with the phone) or if you lost that buy a usb c to usb otg- adapter.
connect a computer mouse to your phone, don you use the mouse to click.
not sure if this works if you cant use touch on your phone:

last way would be using adb (please dig deeper in that topic by yourself).
