Super User - Cracked Screen

Hi, I have a BIG Optimus 2X, but i got a crack on the screen from left to right in the middle of the screen and i can only use the top half of the screen. I have managed to use nvflash to remove my custom rom and install the original rom.
As i am waiting my company to give me the instructions to get the phone repaired, I began to wonder if there is a way to use the phone without using the touch-screen.
Surfing the web i found Droid VNC Server and i managed to install it and to START it via ADB
the command to start it via ADB is the following one:
# am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n org.onaips.vnc/org.onaips.vnc.Mai
nActivity
well now i have it on the screen of my phone, and i am able to select start, becouse it is just up the crack, but Superuser acces is asked, and i am unable to accept and grant SU acess.
So my question is:
Is there a way to give SU permissions to vnc server via ADB? or is there a table or a file in where su has granted and denied software ?
Thanks in advance.

A possible way to launch vnc server :
(tested on a broken screen nexus S)
(droid VNC server must be installed (can be done via play store))
(I haven't any su issues with this method)
1: set execution right (this has to be to done only once) :
Code:
adb.exe shell chmod 766 /data/data/org.onaips.vnc/files/androidvncserver
2: manualy launch the executable :
Code:
adb.exe shell /data/data/org.onaips.vnc/files/androidvncserver
3: from an other window set port forwarding :
Code:
adb.exe forward tcp:5901 tcp:5901
4: from PC launch your favorite vnc viewer

Post a logcat.
If you don't know how, then you can run the tool in my signature and use the command lgctnp
Then post the generated text file as an attachment here.

I've never done a logcat before. But I have adb installed with phone connected through usb. typed in "adb logcat -v long > Settings has stopped.txt" with message saying "- waiting for device -" then nothing happens when booting phone ?

Sorry, you will need the drivers for your device and you will have to have usb debugging on.(> the reasons for the waiting for device)
If you don't have debugging on then we must find a recovery with adbd running.
Then use my tool's command lgctnp
then exit notepad.
post the text file from the Work folder here in an attachment.
Then we can move along.

DISCLAIMER: I'm not a developer. So expect some hiccups.
Potential issues:
dlopen failed: library "/system/lib/libnetcmdiface.so" not found
^Missing module. (Might mean networking problems )
bool android::SecHdmi::create(int, int)::FIMC0: Insufficient memory size(0x 3c00KB) for Graphic layers
^Hdmi? Don't worry 'bout this one.
(Seems like Hdmi out on this phone won't work} Does this phone have Hdmi out?
Back to the point.
Do you have trouble with airplane mode or wifi or any other networking?
What settings have you touched in developer options?
It says something about database issues with the settings application. Have you changed the default database at all with titanium backup?
(as in: Convert dbs to WAL mode)
Go run fix permissions in recovery.
Try the settings.
Then if it doesn't work try clearing data for settings app, and rebooting into recovery and clearing dalvik cache.
Can you quote this post to the rom developer please?

IKeyStore Force Closes

I had the 4.4.4 CarbonRom flashed and decided to try out the new 5.X.
Without updating my bootloader ( It was 4109 I think) I clean wiped my phone and flashed the euphoria rom. I was unable to open the Security Settings menu or uninstall any app. I posted the logcat from the 5.1 rom in the euphoria thread.
Since I was on the old bootloader I updated to the 4118 versione without a problem but I still couldnt open Security or uninstall any app. I tried other roms such as the AOSP 5.1, but it still wasn't working. So I tried going back to the stock 4.4.4 rom but I'm still having the same problems. The logcat from the 4.4.4 stock is attached. I've also tried the 5.1 stock rom, same result.
Any idea on how to fix this?

Ok I managed to fix this by searching for another string I found in the logcat, specifically :
Code:
E/QSEECOMAPI: ( 6008): Error::Cannot open the file /vendor/firmware/keymaster/keymaster.mdt
E/QSEECOMAPI: ( 6008): Error::Cannot open the file /firmware/image/keymaste.mdt
I'm reposting the solution and the relevant logcat lines for any poor soul that has the same problem in the future:
Code:
E/AndroidRuntime(19798): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to resume activity {com.android.settings/com.android.settings.SubSettings}: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke interface method 'int android.security.IKeystoreService.is_hardware_backed(java.lang.String)' on a null object reference
E/AndroidRuntime(20411): java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to start activity ComponentInfo{com.android.settings/com.android.settings.SubSettings}: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke interface method 'int android.security.IKeystoreService.zero()' on a null object reference
E/AndroidRuntime(25642): java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke interface method 'int android.security.IKeystoreService.clear_uid(long)' on a null object reference
I found the solution in this thread. You have to copy the keymaster files I attached in the zip into the /firmware/image/ folder after mounting the /firmware with read write permissions. Be sure to chmod 644 all the files too.

There are no accounts on the device, i did a factory reset.
I have a verizon z4. is this the problem? is anyone else having a problem with an 'Unlocked' version?

Get a root shell using ADB and check the contents of your device_policies.xml (and device_owner.xml) files.
Code:
cat /data/system/device_policies.xml
Code:
cat /data/system/device_owner.xml
You want to check if there is an active admin or owner set for your device. If you cannot find this app enabled as admin in settings (Settings > Security > Device admin apps), you can remove this app using ADB.
Because you already have a device owner, you cannot set a different device owner until all accounts are removed and no active admin application owns your device.

How do I set the Device Owner? (adb) - To disable system apps

Hi,
I was wondering if anyone has managed to set the device owner for the find x2 pro? I tried using package disabler pro, but it keeps complaning about not having device owner access. It says to run thus via adb:
Code:
adb shell dpm set-device-owner com.pdp.deviceowner/.receivers.AdminReceiver
after running this, it does not work and get this erro
Code:
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Not allowed to set the device owner because there are already several users on the device

I also deleted all my accounts associated to the device and still no joy
I wanted to disable some system apps, to see if I can figure out what is preventing apps to be clocked at 60hz. I know coloros whitelists certain apps, so i thought it maybe a system app that is doing this and eliminate them one by one.

Have you selected the option Disable Permission Monitoring in Developer options?
