[Q] Touchscreen broken and not responding - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My phone's screen is broken and the touch isn't responding anymore.
Is there a way to get a control on my phone's interface ? I know I could buy an OTG USB cable and plug in a mouse, but that would require a custom rom.
I want to make a backup of my phone with ADB but I need access to it to accept the backup. Any help is welcome, thanks !

[Q] Backup Nexus 4 with broken digitizer

Hello
Yesterday, I shattered my glass and digitizer though the lcd and phone are correct.
I'm wondering how much does lg or google charge for repair and is it lengthy process.
Also I'd like to know what are my option to backup the phone. USB debuging is disabled but the phone is rooted and unlocked.
I don't think there is a remote control app that can be installed without user input and I don't think I can enable USB debuging without screen input.
So I guess, I'm stuck with a nandroid backup though I'm not sure what is included. I believe it includes everything but the USB storage ?

Yes, a nandroid includes everything but the data/media folder.
You could however blindly boot in recovery, then use adb to copy the data/media/0 folder (the sdcard).
Soo, boot in recovery, and use this command
adb pull data/media/0 C://NexusSD
Thanks

Shatered my screen (getting photos from phone)

I tried every way i could think off to get my pictures of the phone. I even bought a mhl adapter with a usb port so you can use a mouse and/or keyboard.... But it doesn't seem to work.
Is it possible that the firmware on the phone is to old to support a otg mouse?
Also if I flash a newer frimware over with odin will that delete the screen password or overwrite my data partition?
Do you guys have any other ideas how to get my data of the phone?
Yes, it will wipe everything.
Without USB debugging activated, the only way would be to actually get the screen replaced.

Problem with touchscreen on zenfone ze500kl

Hi, in this phone the bottom half of the touchscreen doesn't work.
I tried a factory reset, but now I'm stuck in the setup since I can't click continue.
Is there any way to stream the screen to the PC?
Can I use and otg cable and connect a mouse?

Stuck in TWRP and touch is not working

Hi guys.
My touchscreen is broken but the screen is still working.
The thing is that I entered in TWRP and now I can't exit because the touch is not working. I've tried use odin to do something and fix it but my phone is not recognized more. I've tried use an OTG cable and plug a mouse and keyboard, but is not working too.
Please, someone can help me to fix it?
