For XDA O21: Can USB Flash Mode Actually be Used? - MDA, XDA, 1010 Software Upgrading

The USB Flash Mode - I was able to activate it by getting in the Wallaby Bootloader Screen 5.17 then Pressing the VOLUME BUTTON.
Question is, would it be possible for me to flash the device using this method?
What are the steps to initiate this? Can XDA tools be used to flash using USB flash? thanks

USB Flash-Mode

Hi,
At the very beginning of this page you (the XDA-Developers) wrote on the page of the Bootloader that after pressing the Volume-Button in Bootloader-Mode will open a menu for the USB-Flash-Mode.
USB FLASH
MODE
=============
CONNECT USB
CABLE NOW...

At that time nobody knew what to do with that.
What about now???
Are you able to give some advise what I can do with this Flash Mode? Can someone create a tool like a terminal program to get connected to the XDA like via serial cable?
Thanks in advance

Custom recovery for locked bootloader?

Hello,
does custom recovery for a locked bootloader exist? I could not find one.
My phone is on 4.4.2. 183.46.10 bootloader.
Actually, I want custom recovery in order to run adb commands and turn usb debugging mode on. Currently I can not activate developer mode on my phone, because it's screen and digitizer is broken.
Thanks.

You have to root and unlock bootloader if you want custom recovery.
You have to unlock the bootloader. Sorry.

Thanks guys. I want to enable usb debugging on my phone, but my screen/digitizer is broken.
The way how I will archive this does not matter.
Currently I can only run fastboot commands. Nothing more. (I can also access phones internal memory, but I think it won't help.)
Is there any way to turn usb debugging on?
Does stock recovery has usb debugging on and how to enter it without adb or phone screen?
You can't use USB debugging even in custom recovery when it's disabled in system, if i'm not wrong. So custom recovery won't help you. Look here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13326806/enable-usb-debugging-through-clockworkmod-with-adb
Do you see image on your screen? If yes, you can use USB OTG mouse to control the phone.
I second the usage of an USB mouse. This phone has the support for USB OTG.

Can you get it into battery charging mode ?
If you can get there, KDZ software will switch it to Download Mode when you attempt to flash firmware.
I am not sure as my boot animation is damaged no matter what mode I boot into. The problems began when I flashed a v20 baseband

it doesnt interefere with bl or download mode however
- unplug usb cable.
- remove battery.
- hold vol - pressed.
- while doing so, connect usb cable.
- does it get into download mode ?
or try
- unplug usb cable.
- remove battery.
- hold vol - and + pressed.
- while doing so connect usb cable.
- does it get into download mode ?
let me know if either of those does anything.
If any of those work and kdz flash doesn't fix there's still hope, let me know how it goes, you might need a modified firmware dll aswell.
Good luck

nexus 4 - broken screen and usb debugging turned off

Hi
I have a nexus4 that has a broken screen, it is, it doesnt react to the finger touch, and doesnt have usb debug enabled
What could i do to extract the files from there?
I have seen that connecting a mouse via usb is not an option as this device is not compatible with that, so i think the only option i have is to flash the device to have usb debugging enabled
Is there any other option i can explore?
Thanks
I am sure that you can enter your recovery assuming that your power + vol button is still functioning.
Try to connect your device using Wug Tool and use the tool to back up all the files.
Give it a try and let us know.

Yes, i can get in recovery, but, i assume i would need to unlock the bootloader first, isnt it? If i do it, i will erase all the documents inside
Hi
I have tried getting into recovery, but, as expected, as usb debugging is not enabled, i cant see the device from adb
So, the key question is... how can i enable usb debug in a device with the screen broken and with bootloader locked, without wiping the data?
Thanks
It is possible to turn on usb debugging?
I have clean phone - after factory reset.
