So a few days ago I cracked my phone screen when it went in-between the couch. The phone was rooted and I believe had TWRP installed. I tried a few screen mirroring apps on my laptop but they all required me to enable USB debugging which is impossible given the fact that most of the touch capabilities of the screen are gone.
Someone suggested on Reddit I could use scrypy. I have it installed but not sure what to do. Could someone help me please?
SCRCPY only works on devices with Android where ADB (read: USB-Debugging ) is enabled.

Hi, getting a bit desperate here, just checking before I nuke the phone from orbit using the "Samsung Find My Device / Wipe" .... my partner has dropped her S6 and the digitizer is broken and the screen *was* visible but deteriorated quickly, the glass itself is perfect since it had a glass protector on it....
I can't get MTP access because the screen notification asks for "Allow MTP access" - I put an OTG adapter in it with a mini keyboard/mouse combo whilst I could view the screen but it was having none of it. I checked that the OTG set up worked on my own S6 and it worked perfectly, just not on hers... so touch screen is no use, and no way to click "Allow MTP" via mouse.
So, are we saying it's game over because I can't use a PC to access the phones data since I have to click the MTP message on the screen? I've read that the S6 has dropped the MHT cable access (great?!) so now the screen is inaccessible and I can't access MTP (USB debugging is seemingly disabled since I can't access it via ADB)
Any help appreciated
Hi everyone,
Sadly, I broke the screen and digitizer of my beloved OP3T :crying:
The bootloader is unlocked, android is rooted and I have TWRP as recovery.
Unfortunately, usb debugging is disabled as my banking application refused to work when it was enabled.
I don't plan to replace the screen as the A3010 as poor/non-existent 4G support here in europe, I didn't know that when I bought that phone
I would like to use the phone as a media player or home automation system through a DisplayLink adapter, but I have trouble to set it up blindly.
I tried to use this tool but I wasn't able to connect to the phone.
I think I manage to enable usb debugging with adb in twrp recovery but I'm not 100% sure. It keeps saying "state: rejected", I don't know if that means that usb debugging is disabled or that I need to approve my host PC (which I can't without the digitizer working)...
Plan B was to use a DisplayLink adapter...
I installed "DisplayLink Presenter" on my OP3T through the play store but It displays nothing on the external monitor.
Maybe I need to unlock the phone first? But I can't type the pin code without a digitizer...
I'm out of idea so your help would be very welcome :good:
Regards,
Cédric
TL;DR: Is it possible to install a USB > DisplayLink adapter on a phone with broken screen and digitizer?
Recently dropped my OnePlus and it broke both the digitizer and LCD, so I cannot see nor touch anything on the screen. I had USB debugging enabled on the phone, but for some reason it doesn't appear in devices when trying to load it with ADB. I've tried a few different softwares so far that will supposedly mirror an Android such as Vysor, but due to ADB not communicating I'm assuming that's why these softwares are not working. I've tried getting it into fastboot mode to run commands on it, but without being able to see the screen it seems to not be booting correctly. I'd like to be able to just get it mirrored so I can make sure I didn't miss anything when backing up, would appreciate not having to spend $200 on screen replacement...
Hey,
some days ago, I dropped my phone so that the screen is broken (black) now.
The other functions work fine though, for example I can still connect the phone via USB to the PC and access to the files.
Nevertheless, I have some important files which can only be accessed via Private Mode. But in order to activate the Private Mode, I have to see the display (unless you know another way how to activate Private Mode?).
I think the best way for that would be Screen Mirroring on PC. Unfortunately, Samsung's SideSync does not recognize my phone although it's connected via USB. Probably I have to open SideSync on the phone as well but with a broken screen, this is difficult (Or do you have any ideas?)
I have also checked out other programs like MirrorGo, but this one needs USB debugging enabled on the phone. Again, that is not easy with a broken screen.
So do you have any ideas how I can either mirror the phone on a PC or enable the Private Mode in a different way? (Apart from replacing the whole display for 200€)
Thanks a lot for your help
in the same boat
I have a Oneplus 5 phone with a broken screen from about 4 years ago, the screen is entirely black and does not show anything, touch also does not work.
I want to mirror the device's screen to a monitor so I can set it up as an IP camera to record my cat giving birth.
I'm pretty sure I have usb debugging enabled since I last used it, so far I have tried:
1. connecting to a usb-c dock with HDMI to a monitor, but apparently Oneplus 5 does not support MHL.
2. tried using Vysor and Scrcpy, both work on my Galaxy Note 9 (main phone) but I have to unlock the phone and allow permissions to use ADB, since I don't have a working screen or touch on my Oneplus 5 this didn't go so well.
additional info that might be helpful:
I tried connecting the phone to a keyboard and entering the PIN (I'm pretty sure I remember it correctly) but I can't tell if it does anything.
the phone is functional, in fact, a tiny corner of the screen (bottom right) responds to touch and I can draw V gesture to turn on flash.
Vysor recognizes the phone, but upon clicking "view" it says: "The connected Android device requires pairing confirmation. click the "allow USB debugging" prompt on your android". but again, I don't have a working screen, and I cant have a keyboard connected to the phone and PC at the same time (unless there is a way I don't know of).
Is there any way I can get screen mirroring working on this device? it's been sitting in a drawer for 4 years waiting for this moment, I don't even care about recording my cat giving birth anymore... I just want this to work!
Any help is greatly appreciated.
