Broken screen, official kernel with usb debugging enabled by default needed - Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello, could anybody help me?, my screen got broken, it was driven by a car nothing can be seen, touch is not responsive, but my problem is that I haven't enabled adb.
I would like to install custom recovery and do full Rom backup before sending for repair, but can't do nothing without usb debugging enabled in phone
I tried do something by fastboot but everything failed.
Or maybe there is some way to connect mouse via otg and TV via mhl simultaneously?
Any help would be appreciated

Maybe you can plug mouse via otg I didn't try this but it might works I always connect via bt. But if you have something on int memory you can always plug to pc simply or make an backup with pc companion

Mouse over otg works, but its rather useless because i cant see screen, its totaly broken, and i dont know how to conect both mouse and screen at same time. It would be easy with adb working, my bootloader is locked and i dont habe TA keys backup so i dont want to unlock it.

Did you try pc companion backup?

[Q] broken screen but otg

Hi all,
As i said in a previous thread, my phone has broken screen and digitizer.
After weeks of tests, with a combination of otg mouse and mhl,I managed to restore the system to the inistial state.
The problem is that i can use otg and mhl at once, so before i look at the screen situation with mhl, and then i connect the otg mouse and use it blindly,
I managed to enable usb debug, but the device remains unathorized on adb.
I think that, maybe, the problem is that the phone is still in the initial configuration state or "how to use the phone " state, because if i go in the app launcher window, there is always the example on how to move an app to the home screen..
There is any way to exit from this state? To skip the tutorial...
Maybe when the tutorial will be completed, the adb will not be unathorized anymore...
Or any other idea will be fine..
Thank you

How to add a USB debugging fingerprint manually to your device?

Hello,
my touchdisplay is broken and it doesn't work anymore (the touch function).
Now I wanted to reset to stock image and lock the bootloader again using the nexus root toolkit.
I successfully installed the stock firmware again and then a problem encountered:
Usually I just used an OTG cable and a pc mouse to do pointer operations but there is one important which i can't do:
When I connect the device to the PC for the first time it asks me if I want to accept the fingerprint of my PC. Now when I unplug the USB cable to plugin the mouse the message disappears
Is there any way to add the fingerprint manually to my device or some other way to lock my device again without using adb?
I'm obviously not rooted cause I restored to factory image..
Thanks in advance.
Edit: can be deleted, figured it out.

enable USB debugging with ADB

Hi there,
I have an issue with the S4 mini of my wife. She forgot to remove it from one of her pants pocket and placed the pants in the washing machine... I let you imagine the rest. The cellphone is pretty clean now (I did worth, in the toilet , sadly, it happened).
I placed her S4 completely disassembled in rice and a silica gel. everything is dry. I was able to turn it on however the screen did not turn on. I recovered several data but I'm not able to retrieve the sms as the phone is not rooted.
luckly, I have also a S4 mini. I managed to change the screen and it turned on !! however (tsss) the touchscreen doesn't work.
My S4 is from 2013 and hers is from 2014. something might have changed.
so as I mentioned above, I'm trying to retrieve the sms but I need to turn on the USB debugging to be able to use any program.
so what I did is to connect her S4 with ADB [normal boot, recovery, downloading mode] but can't have a connection with ADB:
adb devices
List of devices attached
adb server version (32) doesn't match this client (36); killing...
error: unknown host service
error: could not install *smartsocket* listener: cannot bind to 127.0.0.1:5037: Une seule utilisation de chaque adresse de socket (protocole/adresse could not read ok from ADB Server
réseau/port) est habituellement autorisée. (10048)
* failed to start daemon *
error: cannot connect to daemon
Do you have any idea why I can't get this connection with ADB?
and how to enable the USB debugging with a touchscreen not working ? this will enable me to use several program to retrieve the sms.
many thanks !!
unfortunately I can't get any info from \data\ as the phone is not rooted.
I'm trying to connect a mouse with a otg adapter but I can't get anything from it.
do you have any idea on how to either activate the "usb debugging mode" or to get controle of the cellphone with a mouse?
thanks
and I was able to make adb recognize the phone. that's a small step
So what I found on how to backup sms:
- sms are stored in \data\, so to have access to this partition I need to be rooted. => rooted now will simply make all data disappear which I don't want. => I'm correct, right?
- using any app to backup will need to have the USB debugging active. However I can't do anaything on the screen as it doesn't work. => to activate it with adb, I need to be rooted....
- OTG, I try to connect a mouse (otg linked to the mouse with/without power supply) it doesn't work
is it possible to simply make a clone of my phone to the computer? or to my S4 mini?
my last solution would be to buy a screen but it's 60€ just ot backup the data and as I noticed, I have to be sure the screen is compatible with the motherboard of the cellphone which is not easy...
thanks !!

I have a very similar problem, same phone stuck on Logo screen, can see it with adb, but unauthorised. I want to get data off, but no backup exists. Is there a solution?

[solved] Recover Data: Touchscreen doesn't respond, fastboot only, Stock Android One

Hey gals and guys,
my girlfriend dropped her Xiaomi A2 lite and no the touchscreen doesn't respond. The phone has the stock Android One and I can only access fastboot.
Code:
fastboot devices
recognizes the phone.
The recovery is the stock recovery.
Code:
adb devices
won't recognize the phone and gives me an empty line as output
I also can't access the phone via usb with my filebrowser. If I try, the phone makes a "bing"-sound and the filebrowser gives me:
Code:
unable to open MTP device
I am using archlinux and I also have a windows device available.
Is there any chance on getting pictures etc from the phone?
Any suggestions besides getting a replacement for the touchscreen?
Thank you so much.
Connecting via USB probably needs you to click something.
I'm guessing developer mode is not enabled...
If you've got a micro USB OTG cable, you could plug a mouse in.
If you boot TWRP (fastboot boot twrp-3.3.1-dees-troy.img) you should be able to get adb and usb transfers working. Don't need to install it, just boot it. Not sure if that works without unlocked bootloader.

Firetv stick 4k bricked

I unlocked the bootloader, I did a wipe data and now the firestick is stuck on the firetv black screen, cant access the menu, cant connect through adb with the computer connected via usb.
I can access TWRP with otg cable and mouse, but I dont have any rom to flash on device, so I cant reflash it, I dont have access to adb to push it either.
If I connect a usb hub to the otg, and connect the mouse and a usb stick at the same time, can I access the usb stick memory to flash the rom zip file?
Help
Update:
Problem solved I did the unlock bootloader process again as Pretoriano80 advised and it worked, I got access again to TWRP, used adb to push the rom and flashed the rom again.
Thank you.

Yes, if you connect a mouse + usb stick (fat32) you will be able to flash a stock rom. In TWRP you will have to switch from internal memory to the OTG stick.
Thank you for the answer thats good news.
So any usb hub should work right, i will have to buy one.

If TWRP works, then you can push a stock firmware from PC to the FireTV Stick with ADB. Just make sure that your stick is connected to your pc with the original USB cable (not OTG).
I already tried.
When connecting directly to pc, no otg cable, I cant use adb, looks like after I wiped data the device lost the adb.
I tried adb shell it says no devices/emulators
I tried adb devices, none listed
So I cant connect through adb, I cant access recovery nor I can push the flashable rom.
The only way I can access is with otg cable + mouse.
That leaves me with only one option, use the hub to connect mouse + stick to the otg cable and flash through otg usb in TWRP.

TWRP's ADB should work, but probably you can't boot into TWRP without OTG. The solution is to do the unlock procedure again so after the last step it should boot to TWRP automatically.
If that fails, then you can buy an USB hub.
Thank you for helping really appreciate that.
I will run the procedure again, will keep you posted about the results.
Ok tried it
No response from device
After ./bootrom-step.sh it says waiting for bootrom, I do the short connect the device but the computer doesnt recognize it, keeps saying waiting for bootrom no matter what I do.
So I think theusb hub is the only resource now.

Ok Tried again, it works, am on TWRP with adb, pushing the flashable now, will keep updated.

Good news
Firetv fixed, thank you very much!

Great! No problem, it happened to me once and has been the only that worked for me (without the need of an usb hub, of course), so i was pretty sure that it would work for you too.
