Help forcing file transfer with broken screen - HTC 10 Questions & Answers

Like the title says, my wife's 6645L has a shattered screen and I'm trying to pull some files off of it. She rarely plugged it up to a pc so I have no idea what it's set to do.
I know it's working as we heard notifications and rings before we switched phones but that's all I know. When I plug it up to the pc, nothing happens.
Anyone know of a way to force it into a file transfer?

Thanks chrisz5z, I'll do some digging and see what I can figure out. She never let me mess with the phone which means that debugging is turned off...that'll be the big hurdle

But you'll need to unlock the bootloader & flash TWRP to do it

[Q] USB Debugging ENABLE

Alright, I'm going out on a limb here, I have no other options, I've tried everything..
I'm locked out, on my Evo.. "To unlock, sign in with your Google account" however, I don't have the credentials for this phone.. The data on this phone I need.. I'm trying to execute the commands
"> adb -d shell
# sqlite3 data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
sqlite> update system set value=0 where name='lock_pattern_autolock';
sqlite> .exit
# exit
> adb reboot"
through the phone's stock recovery console (You know, the one that doesn't exist?) This phone is not rooted, it is completely stock, I can't access the desktop of the phone to enable USB debugging as I am locked out..
Nor can I use Unrevok3d to root and flash a recovery, so as you can see, as of now I'm at a stalemate..
My question: Is there something out there? Like a script of some sort, that I can put on the root of the SD card and boot the phone back on, and have this script/app execute itself FOR me to ENABLE USB debugging? So that I can run these commands and disable the lockscreen? I'm going through all this trouble just to backup the data so I can wipe the phone, but I'm unwilling to wipe the phone if I don't backup this data. The phone will be a paperweight otherwise, and what a waste would that be..
LOL sounds sketchy....
anyway try the Q&A forum

that would wipe the data
Yes, I'm trying to keep the data intact since I need it.. But I am locked out?
Nobody can compile some sort of script? Something that'll run itself? or a script that will disable this perma-lock status? There has got to be something like that, that can be done?
IF this exploit did exist wouldn't that defeat the point of pattern unlock? i mean, anyone could run this script and get around pattern unlock.
so, what i'm getting at is if someone knows this i hope to god they dont post it because every asshole will use it to spy on their girlfriend ect ect.

How many people (Average users) are going to know about something like this if it DID exist? Your average user doesn't know about ADB nor do they know how to use ANY of the commands or how to debug a phone using the SDK..
So... What I am getting at.. Is if there is a no-way-out scenario (Like the one I'm having) Is there a way AROUND it? Like the previous question I just posted? I'm not looking to spy on girls, I'm not paranoid nor do I have a wife/girlfriend and nor do I care. I just want back into my phone. I know there is a way to do it, I've enabled ADB with my G1 from being locked out before, but this isn't my G1..

how do you not know your gmail address and password?
the thing is, if i or anyone tells you how to get out of your totally-believable scenario then that would rape the children of every person that relies in the pattern-unlock for security.
pattern-unlock or not, you should know your own email password

That's actually a fantastic suggestion, however that only works with USB Debugging enabled.. And that's the problem I'm having, I do not have USB debugging enabled and I am LOCKED outta the phone, hence, I cannot turn it on or off as I see fit.
This is why I want some script that will automatically either, disable the perma-lock, or enable USB Debugging mode so I can run the shell commands to disable the pattern lock myself...

Indeed, which I do...
....It's not working, I've tried all my passwords, caps, no caps, letters and special characters (I have a ton of passwords I use) But for this specific account, none of the passwords I have tried are working and google account recovery doesn't seem to be too reliable..
This isn't my first rodeo, I've had problems like this before where I just log in and change my pattern, but what if that possibility is out the window and the only thing left is an Android Guru that can ninja hack my Debug settings?? I'll grab my data and wipe the phone and re-register it to a password that won't tell me I'm lame.
If anyone is paranoid about this whole thing, or someone hacking their pattern lock just PM me so I can fix my situation, and not have to worry about this again.. I don't want to break into any phone but my own. Someone has to know how stressful this is..

I can't wipe the phone. I'll keep the phone on my desk and wait if I have to. There is data on this phone I CAN NOT LOSE, and the gmail account I used I never accessed from my browser, ever. I just made one when I got my 2nd number.
You're sayin that people are out there that CAN help? And WON'T cause they THINK it's stolen? IT'S MY PHONE! All I did was make a stupid mistake. That was letting my sister touch it, nosy little ****.. hahah

[Q] When trying to turn bluetooth on, it just turns off immediately

I have been having this issue for weeks now. Any time I try to turn on my bluetooth, it flashes on for just a split second, then turns right back off. I was able to pull some info from logcat, I don't know if it would be of any help but hopefully you all can help me figure this out. Thanks in advance!

Rooted and unlocked bootloader? What method?
Freegee likes to mess with the bluetooth. There should be a bluetooth fix flashable zip in the freegee thread for the ls970. I don't know if you can flash it on stock so make sure you read thoroughly.
Rooted yes, unlocked bootloader no. I rooted with fiddy619's batch file.
I'll take a look at their fix. As far as bluetooth suddenly breaking, is there anything that typically causes this or that I can look into? I've checked over all my settings, and none of my apps seem to be interfering (as far as I can tell), and I can't make sense of the logcat, so Idk what else to look at.

Freegee is to unlock the bootloader, if you're not unlocked and did not use freegee then you have no need for the fix. Do you have a recovery installed? What one?
you should definitely read this thread and maybe complete the process. There are tons of roms out there an as long as you follow the steps in this thread, you shouldn't mess anything up.

Regarding Freegee, I saw that after responding and then felt quote stupid. But I'll probably be doing that soon now so I can get a properly working phone.
Thanks for the suggestion, I'll probably be doing this tomorrow and will update the thread when I do.
For those still subscribed to this, I solved the problem. I am using SmartApp Locker, and in the Settings menu under System Lock I had Bluetooth checked. This should only have been locked when the app locking service was turned on, but it was interfering with all usage of bluetooth with the app lock service on or off.

Issue with Note 4 att (unlocked)

Hello folks,
after marshmallow update my note 4 is acting wired (freeze, restart, sometimes doesn't start etc...). Wakelock app is keeping the phone running but still phone is not performing at it's best. It is slow and sluggish etc...
For some reason if I restart the phone (for ota update etc...) it never turns on. It takes multiple attempt of soft resent and taking battery out and in to turn it on. How to fix this?
I did not make any changes to phone in any ways. I am using what ATT has provided me and recently got it unlocked from ATT. Phone is currently running 6.0.1 with February 1, 2017 security patch level.
Any help is appreciated. If there is any existing thread regarding this issue please redirect me there. I may need step by step guide if the solution includes of changing rom, kernel etc... If I have to change rom then I better be changing it to the finest available in the market.
Thanks again
You likely have an app that is causing problems. Look at settings, battery. Is anything hogging your battery use?
Either selectively uninstall apps, or do a factory reset and slowly add apps until your phone states flipping out.
I and others have had this problem, unfortunately you have to figure out what's causing your problem...
Hit thanks If this has helped you...

2) ODIN FILES to get back to EPH5 and latest ODIN
ODIN -- This will be for PC when I connect the phone, correct?
Let me know if I need any more files to download.
All these information is not making much sense to me at this stage but I guess as I work on this I will have grasp of the process.

I was traveling last week. BTW here is the update. I switched off the phone to get it in to recovery mode... it's dead since then... It doesn't turn on.. I tried various usb cables, wall adapters, soft reset, new batteries etc... nothing is working to turn the phone on. Does this mean the phone is gone?
Any update on the device? What was happening before this happened? Turning off the device to put it into recovery shouldn't have created a catastrophic event that would have killed the phone...
Are you in the states? Are you close to a Best Buy? Many Best Buy stores have a "Samsung Experience Center" that can help you with your phone... They can apply latest updates, and do some minor technical troubleshooting...
What happens if you put a different battery in, and plug in a charger? Are you using a Samsung charger? Leave it for a few minutes, is there any indication that it is charging?
Did you, per chance, use one of those portable rechargers? Those can wreak havoc on your battery, as well as the phone's built in charging circuits...
What is the status of the device?

Hello,
Before it turned off I have downloaded the zip file for update on sd card and then tried to put it in recovery mode to perform the steps but it never turned on. I travel alot so don't get much time to spend to do all these technical things so temporarily switched my old BB Q10. I did try different batteries, chargers, plugging it in various laptops. It's dead dude. I kind of hate ATT and Samsung now. They push an update on us which ruins the phone and then they ask if I have insurance! I mean like dude are you out of your head?
Yes I am states. I did not know that Best Buy do some troubleshooting, I will take phone to them as soon as I can and will update if they were able to solve the issue. Thanks for that suggestion.
If you didn't get into recovery mode, you didn't even start the update. Sounds like the phone died before anything happened. Just trying to put it into recovery doesn't start the update at all...
Sorry about the phone. Hope it's something simple...
For instance, I had a sticky button that made the down volume stop working. A Qtip and rubbing alcohol solved that...
Hope your phone resurrects some how.

It may be too late, but put the phone in the freezer with the battery out for 5 minutes. pull it out and put the battery in and try to turn it on. Works for me, but now everytime I need to restart my phone, it has to go into a freezer.

Just got active here again. I did try the freezer thing but didn't work for me. I have found a process where one uses USB JIG to put phones in download mode (if the battery is fully charged or charged enough) if the phone buttons are non responsive. I haveordered it from ebay. Let's hope it works. Once in download mode, I will try to flash it. Looking for the best procedure to flash it. not a technical guy.

Bluetooth Keeps on Stopping

Hi All,
I have searched google and XDA but have not found a fix yet. Is anyone running into Bluetooth Keeps Stopping loop? I am stock and it just started happening recently. It is really annoying. Sometimes I have to reboot two to three times before it's ok to use for a few hours again. Thanks in advance!

Hello,
No need to root your device, but you'll have to unlock your bootloader, which will wipe your datas. So you'd better backup your stuff before attempting anything..! ?

Need help unlocking AT&T Calypso (U318AA)

Hello Everyone,
Today a friend gave me a phone that I would like to use, but it has a screen lock passcode on it that she doesn't know. The phone was given to her, but she couldn't use because it's AT&T and she is on T-Mobile so she passed it on to me. I checked the IMEI number on several sites and it's clean so i shouldn't have any issues. Is there a way I can remove the passcode from this phone?
My apologies if this is in the wrong section.

Hi, do you still have the phone on you? I've basically hard brick mine and now I need a full mtk dump to get it back as it was. so if you do, can you upload this files? don't worry if you don't know how to do that, I can walk you through the process

it is, I think the problem is with the super image but I'm not 100% sure. so if you can share a full mtk client backup it would be awesome. if not, a super image will do
your device stuck on logo ? or deadboot ?

every time I try to turn it on it bootloops to fastboot mode, I suspect that the issue is a super image I found online, flashed not knowing that it was corrupted (which I discovered later), and I foolishly didn't create a backup (why I went and downloaded the corrupted image in the first place) thinking that I will never go back to the stock rom but now after I have used a couple gsi's for a while found out that the og rom performance was much better and decided to go back

so this is just a bunch of .bin files that I have to flash using mtk client to said partitions? just making sure
and just to let you know I might not be able to download the file today, the internet is pretty sucky where I'm rn, so I hope you don't have a problem keeping the file up till tomorrow. and just wanted to thank you for the incredible help, I've been trying to fix this phone for the last two weeks which was headache inducing say the least.
you can flash this with lots of free tools .. if secure boot on you can't flash directly but i will help you . you just need to share your screen with me ..
sorry for the late response, but yeah I've flashed all of the files using mtkclient and it didn't work Idk if I have messed things up, I thought reflashing all of the stock firmware would fix everything but it seems that there's still something wrong

I've unlocked the bootloader and disabled boot verification, tried fastboot -w and fastboot format userdata and non of it worked, and I'm really sorry but I can't share my screen because as I've mentioned before my internet is bad and I had to go somewhere else to get the files. can I share anything else with you that might help, I have some recovery log files
IT WORKED!!!!! I don't know what was the problem, I've tried flashing the files again but this time using the terminal instead of the gui AND IT WORKED. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU
I'm going to upload the files later in case someone else encountered the same problem
