Hello everyone,
i have an old SE Xperia Mini Pro which has a broken screen.

I know that it looks completely dead, but it's still charging, as i can see on the LED. The volume buttons and the power button also work, and it's still powering on. But foolishly, USB-Debugging is disabled. I don't really expect it to work as before, but it would be nice if i could use it as Webcam or something. I already tried the following things:
1. I unlocked the bootloader with fastboot.
2. I managed to flash a custom kernel including CWM and i could also access the phone in recovery with ADB, but i couldn't access /data/ or /system/ to enable ADB on the system. In most of the kernels i tried, /system/ and/or /data/ don't even mount.
3. I also tried installing LX, but i couldn't access the LX-Recovery with volume down.

Thanks for your help!

Ok, i made it. I installed the Lupus kernel for Gingerbread and enabled adb from CWM.
