[Q] URGENT: Lock Screen stuck with Game Keyboard

Hi all,
I have gotten myself into a bit of a dilemma here - I was playing GTA III with the input method set to "Game Keyboard", and then accidentally pressed the power button on my HOX. Now my phone is stuck with a lock screen (with pin code to unlock), but I cannot enter the pin as the damn game keyboard is set as the input method.
Is there any way to uninstall the game keyboard app from recovery, or a way to change the input method before the unlock screen.
I am running out of ideas, and my last resort is to restore a nandroid backup from a week ago ( I really dont want to do this as this means losing all changes since a week ago).
Any urgent help appreciated.

CWM touch recovery

When you reboot it's still there? Try wiping the dalvik in recovery

Try this...
Code:
adb remount
adb shell
rm /data/app/xxxx.apk
XXX=name of app.apk

is there a way to list the contents of /data/app is adb as I dont know what the name of the apk is

I don't remember the command to mount it to PC via recovery... may b someone else can help you with it... Tried remembering, can't recollect...
Or you can give me the link of the app your using? I can install it and tell you the apk file name! :good:

Everything seems OK...
Maybe try from the recovery....
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app

Is it a system app? if so then use this directory:
/system/apps
Also if it doesn't work then put a -r after rm... mostly it's in /data/app

SOLVED: just needed to mount the partitions in recovery before doing the adb commands.
Thanks for your help!!!!

I'am proud to present you the jackmu95 CWM Recovery auto-installer

Your phone has to be rooted
Installed LG mobile driver (Windows only)
Downloaded and extracted jackmu95 Recovery auto-installer
Enabled USB-Debugging

HOW-TO pull aboot.img
Because I only own the international version of LG G2 I need you help to support the other variants as well.
All you need to do is to follow the instructions below and sent me the aboot.img as PN.
HOW-TO pull aboot.img
Code:
adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/block/platform/msm_sdcc.1/by-name/aboot of=/data/local/tmp/aboot.img
chmod 644 /data/local/tmp/aboot.img
exit
exit
adb pull /data/local/tmp/aboot.img

Hey thanks for porting CWM to the G2!
However, im facing errors installing it. My G2 is the international G802 one (even went into settings just to check that) but the installer has been saying it is not compatible with my phone.

Nice!
I have loki enabled recovery images here http://androtransfer.com/?developer=AndroidUser00110001&folder=/recovery/D800/ for the ATT(800) version and Verizon(Vs980) version if you want to use them.

It would be awesome if you could add Telus (d803) to cwm!
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/68562258/aboot.img

Are you sure you're using the correct property to determine the model #?
I see in your installer the following:
device=`./adb shell getprop ro.product.device`
# Check if device is correct
if [[ "$device" != *d802* ]]; then
And my d802 shows this:
[email protected]:/ $ getprop ro.product.device
g2
[email protected]:/ $ getprop ro.product.model
LG-D802

Can you please provide me the output of
Code:
adb shell getprop
so I can look into the problem.

shell getprop returns:
error: device offline
and adb devices returns:
List of devices attached
02a03a1bd84c6678 offline
I'm guessing this is the issue.
how can I get it online? running Linux Mint BTW

It seems that you haven't accepted the RSA fingerprint message. Do you have a message on your phones screen when you use adb?

nope. all I got is the debug bug, and USB connection selection.
what does the fingerprint message look like? Toast or pop up?

plug your phone into usb, in shell type adb devices, wake your phone if it is sleeping and you should have a notification to accept the fingerprint message.

So I did what you said and got nothing. For giggles I tried all the connection types and plugged unplugged between each.
never get any pop up or nowt.

But you have USB-Debugging enabled, haven't you?

yep. looked around for other tips and they all give similar advice to what I've tried. Not normally needed for linux but i'm gonna reboot my pc just in case.

@AndroidUser00110001 - If you have the aboot.img for ATT or VZW I can create the CWM recoveries for those models.

If you're referring to the link above that I posted, works fine for me. Maybe security setting in your browser - suggest you try looking at the security settings for the browser you're using or try a different browser.
Other option is to go to Google Search (preferably on a PC) and search XDA-Guide: Enabling LTE Bands.

SuperSU doesn't have anything to do with accessing a link. I'm on v2.82, the latest update I've received to-date.
If using Chrome on your phone, turn off Safe Browsing in Settings > (under Advanced heading) > Privacy.

Try enabling setenforce 0 in Terminal Emulator.
Just type in the following (enter each command separately):
su
setenforce 0 (to set permissive) or setenforce 1 (to re-enable enforcing)
and confirm with: getenforce
Failing that, it may be hard coded in your rom which may put you out of luck.

One other thought: failing to first enter adb shell will give that result on your PC.
The following worked for me -i.e., did not get permission-denied, on my laptop.
adb shell
su
echo 1 > /sys/devices/platform/lg_diag_cmd/diag_enable

With respect to the Band tab in DFS - post your questions now to the link I provided in the 1st instance.
If you do not have LGMobileDriver_WHQL_Ver_4.2.0 installed on your PC you will have problems with adb.

I was having similar issue, but then found out that c:\ was not having enough space and flash-all.bat extracts the zip in temp folder (eventually c:\ in my case) and that was causing the issue.

Add Mobile Data and Wifi HotSpot toggle without root

Don't want to root your phone but you still want to tweak it? No trouble, you can still use adb shell to change a few settings.
-First, follow this guide to install ADB on your Windows PC: https://www.xda-developers.com/install-adb-windows-macos-linux/
-Then, you have to plug your phone to your PC with a USB cable.
-Finally, launch a command line and use this command:
Code:
adb shell settings put secure sysui_qs_tiles "Wifi,SoundMode,Bluetooth,RotationLock,Flashlight,Dnd,custom(com.android.settings/com.samsung.android.settings.qstile.PowerSavingTile),BlueLightFilter,Location,custom(com.samsung.android.app.aodservice/.settings.AODTileService),custom(com.samsung.android.smartmirroring/.tile.SmartMirroringTile),AirplaneMode,custom(com.sec.android.app.soundalive/.DolbyTile),WorkMode,MobileData,Hotspot"
We also may have a way to enable Call Recorder on our phone with ADB Shell but, I'm still trying to figure out how it could be done.

You probably forgot a quotation mark. Please check cmd has been wrote correctly.

I figured it out, I had to do "adb shell" first then send the command and everything worked.
