Samsung Galaxy S10+ problem. - General Questions and Answers

Hello! Its possible recevor files from device if phones display if fully damaged! No possible enable usb debugging. Also in phone have lock code. Or need buy a new or used screen ? Also no possible share phones screen to pc ?! Thanks for help!

As long as phone isn't accessible via ADB you have no chance to pull user-data out.
If USB Debugging had been successfully activated then you could have used SCRCPY tool to mirror phone's screen ( read: its screen-buffer content ) to PC.

if your phone is already Debugging enabled just plug it into your computer, then use the android sdk to do a adb pull on any files you want.
Or you may be able to use HDMI output to a monitor and have complete touch screen control. Connecting to a computer should give you file transfer capability
If usb debugging is enabled and you have a Windows pc, you can try another tool created by an xda member. Here's the link:

Please Help! Nexus 4 shattered screen

Hello Helpers, I shattered my Nexus 4 screen, and the phone has a Pin lock, and is currently in Airplane Mode with BlueTooth enabled. It does Not have USB debugging enabled.
My objective is just to pull out the video, audio, and pictures files, after which I would throw the phone away. I appreciate any feedback, or if someone can help me post a reply to "k.janku1" at the post here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2786395 Please refer to point (4) below.
So is there a way I can enabled USB debugging or pull my files out? Following are what I have done, and none are successful in accessing the phone:
1) I have an OTG cable with a mouse. Nexus 4 would not recognize it. I did try to have this OTG Cable + Mouse plug into another Motorola phone and it worked, just not Nexus 4.
2) I plug my Nexus 4 into the PC through the USB cable, the Windows 10 recognize it but when I try to browse that Nexus 4, no files show up.
3) I installed the Android Studio 2.2.2, with various SDK (5.0 and 5.1 SDK) + Google USB driver. And then proceed to run the ADB "shell" or "devices" command located in folder "platform-tools", and the command line would tell me -- "error: no devices/emulators found", or "List of Devices attached" but with NO list of devices displayed. I even boot into Recovery Mode and the ADB command still not seeing any phone.
4) I even try the post here, and I could not get it working either -- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2786395
i) I tried the steps listed here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66731042&postcount=260 but it does not work for me. The step (2) here returned me "No devices", while step (3) is sort of confusing as it involves TWRP (??) and it said BootLoader would erase all my data files!
ii) Another post here in the same thread -- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=62398797#post62398797 which mentions the use of "Flash through ADB". But then my phone does not have USB Debugging enabled, so how can ADB talk to the phone in the 1st place? And compile his codes in Android Studio perhaps?
iii) Another post of same thread -- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=61792353#post61792353 which is lengthy and involves self-custom kernel + compile using Kernel Kitchen. Would this really work?
Thanks

I had the same of your situation i search and tried a lot of things even show the phone screen in pc but me too i didn't have usb debugging enabled, so what i did is :
Flash the stock ROM for my phone by Odin (it don't need usb Debugging enabled it is for Samsung phones) and by flashing new ROM all your files will be stay in the internal storage, after that the files will be showed in the PC, i don't know if u try that before so that is my solution

Thank you for the hint. But I doubt if this approach would work for Nexus 4. I searched online for Odin + Samsung, seems like Samsung phone has a Download mode where the phone would accept the new image file put to it. There is no such mode for Nexus 4, so the phone would not read anything in easy steps like Download mode.

Samsung Galaxy Note 4 remotely enable USB debugging (broken screen)

Greetings.
I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 with a completely broken screen (no display, no touch response).
Android version is 4.2.2.
The phone is working, as pressing the power button lights up the bottom bar.
The phone is rooted, however, USB debugging is disabled. The phone is also pattern locked.
I am aiming to gain remote access to the phone through my PC, ideally mirroring the screen so I can manually backup everything from my phone. In the worst case, backup through ADB is also acceptable.
Initially, I attempted to mirror the screen using:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2786395
However, it requires ADB, which in turn requires USB debugging to be enabled.
To enable USB debugging, I attempted to modify the build.prop through ADB shell in recovery mode:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2335799
However, it is done so using custom recovery (TWRP) which I assume cannot be done in stock recovery (not confirmed, please respond if untrue).
I attempted to edit the build.prop manually:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/sprint-g4/themes-apps/tool-edit-build-prop-pc-t3312517
But It requires USB debugging to be enabled as well, and I assume it to be true for most such tools.
I also attempted to install a custom recovery (TWRP):
https://www.xda-developers.com/how-to-install-twrp/
However, out of the 3 installation methods listed, 2 require USB debugging and 1 requires application installation on the phone.
Using a USB OTG mouse to enable USB debugging would be difficult, since display is broken.
Since 4.2+ also shows a prompt to allow access to USB debugging to PCs, I assume I could use this:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s2/help/bypass-secure-usb-debugging-prompt-t2965462
However, I would need ADB first, which also comes back to USB debugging.
I would prefer not repairing the phone or getting a new screen, the phone is old, i'm trying to change phones.
Data in the phone must be preserved, as much as possible. I am willing to compromise, somewhat.
ADB seems powerful enough that I could achieve my goals if only I could access my phone through it.
Is it possible to enable USB debugging remotely through some other method to allow me to use ADB?
Is it possible to flash a custom rom with an edited build.prop without screen input and while preserving phone data?
Please suggest options.

Access personal data with broken screen and root/usb debugging enabled (but not authorized)

hi guys I need help to recover some personal photos I had saved on my device. The phone has a broken screen and touch so I cannot use a mouse or try to blindly unlock it, but it has been rooted and usb debugging is enabled; unfortunately my pc is not authorized by the phone and I have no way to authorize it through the pop up without a screen. I have searched around many forums to find a solution but it seems every time there was something wrong, so I need some help.
The solution that got me the nearest to a conclusion that I tried are:
using adb in custom recovery (which I do have) and trying commands like "adb pull /sdcard" which resulted in "pull: building file list... 0 files pulled. 0 files skipped.", I don't understand why it's unable to pull any file.
trying to authorize usb debugging for my pc through adb by "adb push adb_keys /data/misc/adb", adb_keys is the adbkey.pub file in the .android folder renamed. I can confirm i pushed them since "adb pull /data" pulled "data/adb/misc/adb_keys" as the only file, but I still don't have authorization
I'm not too literate in this kind of commands so please be patient but I really need help
RECAP OF MY PHONE STATUS
Xiaomi Mi 10 5G is the device
both screen and digitizer broken, I'm not able to see the screen or use touch (but I'm 100% sure the phone still works)
Android 12 rom (xiaomi.eu stable)
custom recovery available
rooted device
usb debugging enabled
no device authorized by the phone for usb debug
I found somewhere on xda that the problem could be solved by mounting/unmountind sdcard, but I have no ideea hoe to do that

There is a way to do it, but it costs money
@damndaniel0
If USB-MTP mode is enabled on phone - what should be default - then you can access all user-data stored in /storage/emulated/0 directory where among others photos are stored.

If you mean simply to connect the phone through usb to pc, I cannot do that because MIUI asks everytime if I want to transfer photos, files or just charge with a pop up on screnn (which I obviously cannot do)

Honestly I did not try, but I don't remember the phone directory showing up in windows file explorer after connecting the phone in recovery mode, I'll try againg when I'm home and I'll let you know
anyway I checked and no, I cannot access phone files
In Recovery mode you should can run
Code:
adb devices
adb pull <LOCATION_OF_DATA_OF_INTEREST> <STORAGE_LOCATION_ON_PC>

unfortunately the result of this operation is always "pull: building file list... 0 files pulled. 0 files skipped". I tried already to pull form /sdcard, /storage, /data. Am I getting the location wrong?

Question How do I mirror (broken - can't see, no touch) screen of my A12 onto my Win11 laptop?...

I have the PIN and Pattern, but can't use either without the screen. I was pretty sure that I enabled ADB on the phone, but typing ADB devices in terminal lists nothing.... Please help! Thanks all!

All I can say us check whether you installed the Samsung ADB driver so that your phone is recognised if you are sure you enabled USB Debugging. Other than that if touch isn't working and you can't use the phone I don't know what you can do.
Does it "bong" when you plug it in?
Use UsbView.exe to see if there is something there (it will show devices even if they don't have a driver).
