[Q] Need Help Enable Debuggin w\Broke Screen?

[alton987]

MY buddy broke his screen and screen digitizer on his G2 and really needs his notes form the phone. The phones boots and I can see the desktop with the HDMi out put the screen does not respond to touch commands. Anyone know of a way to enable USB debugging without the touch screen or retrieve his notes.

My thoughts are if I enable debugging I can remote into the phone and get the info he needs,

Thanks

You could always use a mouse with an OTG USB cable. Plug and play. Also a Bluetooth mouse would work if you can get it enabled!

Just hope that you didn't update to 2.3.6 (UKK6)...

Will this work on the stock rom?

Yes, if its on 2.3.4 (UKH7) and not 2.3.6 (the latest update UKK6). HID (human interface devices) are apparently broken on the new update...

Got adapter in today and I was able to get USB debugging enable but its not popping up in adb server for me. Anyone have a guess why? I have my own G2 and I can see it on adb any guess why his is not coming up?

Restart the adb service after you plug in the device (kill adb.exe, plug in, run adb) and theres a command to list devices. (adb devices)
