The screen of my OnePlus One is ****ed after some water went inside it.
The buttons work however the screen is completely blank.
It connects to PC and I can see all my files intact.
What should I do?
Is there a tool that can let me see my phone's screen on my PC? Please help.
I'm a noob at this.

If your phone gets wet never turn it on. Leave it in a bowl full of rice first and then after it dries it should boot up fine.

I dried it in bowl of rice for two days, used a blow dryer for hours too.
The software is fine, but hardware is ****ed. No solution except to get it repaired probably.
@nix01
hum..
I can think of 3 methods.
1. Use a HDMI Connection & OTG USB Mouse
2. Use [Tool][Windows] Control a device with a broken screen. Now with touchscreen support!!
3. Use adb to install apps which lets you remote control your phone
I think you can use airdroid to get a live view of your phones screen on your pc, although you need to install the app on the phone first which may be impossible without the screen working

Although Airdroid can be installed from the play store (website). But it'll require the phone to be rooted. Moreover you won't be able to grant root access to the newly installed app if your screen isn't working, unless SuperSu is set to grant all permissions

Did you forgot about the in app Login part ?
I also forgot about the things needed to be done on the phone before it can be used. It needs setting up and that's not possible if you cant use the screen.
I hope you can at least get some kind of backup off the phone

hi all,
heres the deal. i rooted my defy with superoneclick, it worked great.
heres the problem and what i think is the cause but i need a solution!
PROBLEM: i switch my phone on, it starts normally
motoblur screen
then
T mobile screen
then
the normal swipe unlock
i ulnlock it fine but as soon as i do the wallpaper dissapears/goes black. i cannot access any apps. none of the buttons work (menu,home,return/back,search) but the info bar/ menur bar thing at the top that swipes down works fine and what ever is in it works fine i.e when i plug into usb im able to choose portal and tools and those other 3. but when i just leave my phone on lock then press power button/activate unlock screen. it will show normal background with time and everything looks normal.
the CAUSE ( i think )
i was installing apps and deleting motoblur stuff. but it it was one of those two, i isntalled an app and i deleted a file at the same sort of time. the app installed was some startup app killer or a firewall of some type. or it could have been that i deleted an apk file that had a real short name i think, like blur.apk
PLEASE HELP ME. I need a solution FAST its my first smartphone ever and i paid alot for it. if you need my phone info it was
moto defy android 2.1 uk version but then rooted with super one click
THANK YOU IN ADVANCED FOR ANY HELP
ps i have installed rsd lite and it is recognised by it but thats as far as i know what to do...
No bad words and put a better title please, thread closed.
My daughters Huawei Ideos U8150 has a cracked screen, you can not unlock the screen because the crack is right in the middle of where you slide the unlocker.
So the phone although can be used to receive calls, can not be accessed via the screen.
She has also managed to somehow set it to not unlock the screen when receiving a call(no idea how she did this).
So I have 0 access to the phone.
I have a program Lock_2.0.apk but can not just install it with ADB because her phone of course is NOT in development mode.
In the custom AmonRA recovery, I can enable USB, and ADB will see the phone as "recovery".
But if I try to install the app that turns off the screen unloocker it says "/sbin/sh: pm: not found".
All I need to do is install that app to remove the screen locker and the phone is useable again.
Any idea how to get it into development mode with adb? Or some other way?
Thanks.
Sorry to dissapoint you, I don't know. But I want to know how's the the phone? I want one to give it to a friend, is it good?
You can buy a used phone on ebay, i saw them cheap.

Screen is broken has a crack but its still useable im not buying her another one she has to learn to take care of her stuff.
But this problem is ridiculous its the screen lock that's causing the problem because you can still use the phone if it wasn't for screen lock.
There must be some way to install the no lock program.
Well, you can try to install a VNC server and access it via WiFi. Or you can try to make a factory reset... it will reset the lockscreen
And if you still interested:

Wifi is not turned on either
The only thing I have to do is install that un lock program and it will be fine but this is easier said than done.
Well, you can try, in recovery, to push the no lock apk to the folder /system/app and reboot... may be you can be lucky enough

Generally we very much appreciate users helping each other with questions, but not when the thread hasn't had any activity in around a year. That means the person's question has either long since been answered, or they've moved on to another device, etc, etc. Thread closed.
So I'm wondering if the backlight might be dead on my TF101. I used my tablet over the weekend fine, but I turned it on this AM and can't see anything. Depending on the angle I just just make out the really white icons or sections of the screen. It looks like I don't have USB debugging enabled because I can't see it in adb devices. I can see it as an MTP device and browse the internal and SD storage.
I'm looking for suggestions to try to max out the brightness or test this device to see if it truly is the backlight or another issue.
ok, I've got adb working so I can communicate with the tablet, any suggestions on hardware diagnostics or how to increase the brightness level?
go here and follow the instructions, its going to allow you to control your android device from your computer thru adb. basically its going to show your tablet screen on the pc, that way you try to see if turning up the brightness works

This is an android app that allows you to use your phone as pip-boy. It actually syncs with your game, so all information is real-time and, yes, it works on our android wear devices!
Do you have to side load it to the watch? I have it on my phone, but there is no option to open it on my zenwatch 2.

Yup, you need to extract apk and sideload it. Also, notice how it cuts off 40% of the app and clicking on the buttons is really hard as they are so small. So, its only good for showing off to your fallout 4 fan friends. Although, using the map for fast travel on the watch is not that bad.
[Added]
However, if you are really determined to have it showing fully, you can try playing with DPI values.
I figured it out. It keeps randomly closing for me though, and the left and right half of the screen are cut off. I'm new to sideloading apps to my wear device, so now I need to figure out how to remove it from my watch

I tried some of the methods posted on the net, but none seem to work. What you can try is to load TWRP recovery into your watch and just delete folder that contains works like falloutcompanionapp inside /data/app/. Or if you already rooted your watch, you can just access that folder without recovery.

Let me guess.... the watch has to be rooted to sideload it?

I did some research, and it turns out I don't have to be rooted. Don't even need that special CAT5/USB cable that the Moto 360 requires. Just Sven's toolkit.
That's right, you don't need a root to sideload apps. You just need to activate the adb mode in developer settings. Its best to use adb over USB since Bluetooth is so painfully slow.
When an app asks for permissions, Allow and Deny options show up (regardless if for storage, or camera, etc.) but the allow button does not work. Deny works fine. So far i have unlocked the bootloader via Huawei website method (i guess you call that official) and flashed twrp. I have not rooted the phone yet (getting to that, but one problem at a time) and this is the first one.
I also saw someone else ask, but with now answer. Is there a way to get rid of the splash scren about the phone being unlocked and not trustable, press power button again to boot?
Do you have an special theme activated? Use the standard theme and try again
My 1st question to you is... when the window prompts, do you flag the option "don't ask to me again" or not? Because if yes, the only option avalaible becomes the "deny" one. This mechanism confused me too some time ago, when i wasn't understanding why it was blacked out; Android takes your flag as an "what a bore, just shut up and go **** ya' self leavin' me alone" answer, so it automatically deactivate the possibility to let it pass even one more time. If you didn't checked the flag, i have another question for you. Did you maybe recently made an update OTA, or with an update package found online? If the 2nd answer is what u've done, do a check for being sure that you have updated the phone with the correct package model. (BLN-21, BLN-22, ecc.) If neither this is your case, begin to tell us something more 'bout your phone configuration and start to think to backup your data and do a factory reset for eliminate this weird issue.
For the question of yours about the Nag screen (the splash one, for being clear) at the moment there is nothing that we can do to avoid it to pop out; just skip it pressing immediately the power button, is the best advice that i can do so far
I'll attempt to answer all these at once since I just got home from work. I wouldn't believe rooting the phone would cause this issue, but the problem happened before i unlocked the bootloader so I think that rules that out. I do not use a special theme, but I do use squarehome launcher for my phone, not the standard android launcher. Problem there is, the problem occurs with either launcher being active. And theme wise, I have a 3-d live aquarium for a background (which if turned off and just a static wallpaper, the same behavior occurs). As far as the phone update goes, it was an OTA update from 6 to 7, so still using stock, nothing sideloaded or flashed (yet). My data is all backed up via My backup pro, and doing a full backup with TWRP onto OTG is not a problem. I prefer not throwing in the towel, since setting up squarehome perfectly is a pain in the ass, but if it has to happen, it is better than manually setting permissions for every app that needs them. Not sure what a screenshot would do, think of any app asking for permission to use phone storage, both the allow button and the deny button visible (in white, nothing grey) and allow doesn't respond where deny responds fine. and then i have to go in manually and grant the permission after the fact. I suppose I could just root my phone and give that a whirl, seems some bloatware needs to be removed anyway, and i have the SU sitting on my hard drive already. Thanx for the responses, and let me know what you may have come up with before I just factory reset it which as mentioned, I am dreading doing.

Well, I didn't think that would be the answer, but you, sir were right. I rooted my phone and it seemed to have fixed the problem. I don't believe I made any other change whatsoever. Thank you very much. Glad I tried it anyway as you suggested even though I didn't think it would be the answer. I am not above saying thank you, and I was wrong. Kudos. Maybe this will help someone else. Good thing is, I planned on rooting it anyway, and you just kicked me in the pants to do it.
Rooted but allow button is still not activated
Hello guys,
I wanted to activate app twin so I rooted my phone BLN-L21 android 7.0
Allow button still deactivated.
Also the boot screen that asks to press power button still exist.
I noticed that if I activate whatsapp twin it won't work simultaneously .
I.e : when you open whatsapp you get all missed calles & messeges.
Also I was able to download themes through themes app ,but now it just views the local themes.
Note: superSu is installed.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thank you
Well, I think this is not related to OP (or at least partially), but when unlocking bootloader after setting up SD card as the default storage can break some things, like default themes.
Try to restore your firmware, and then unlock the bootloader.
If successful, you can now set up SD card as default storage.
