Hi all.
So today I broke my S4 I9505's screen by just dropping it, the touch screen still works, but the screen itself does not turn on. I have passes my pin lock by muscle memory so I have access to all my files on my computer.
All I want to do is get my SMS's off of my phone so I can put it on the replacement that's coming tomorrow.
Debugging is on, I'm rooted and running Jammil(Can not remember how to spell his name) Rom 4.4.4
Any help is much appreciated

Hello! Today suddenly the screen on my HTC Legend stopped working. More exactly it went black, with just a few pixels in different colors and some random striped... I've tried to remove the battery, plug it into my computer, remove the memory card, remove the sim-card etc.etc. nothing seems to bring it back to life... when i press the power button i can sense the phone vibrating and responding to touches on the screen. Seems the phone itself is working fine and that the screen is just broken in some way. Could it be possible that this has something to do with that the phone is rooted and flashed with different ROMs like thousands of times?
I'm considering returning it to the store, since I still have one year warranty left but I'm afraid I won't get a new one if they discover it is rooted
Anyone who's got any good ideas what to do to make the screen work again? Is it possible to factory reset it from the computer?
If you have s-off its easy peasy, otherwise you could downgrade using the goldcard method.In my experience HTC still repair even if it is rooted as they dotn really check, just plug it into there computers then reflash
Hello all,
My rooted Galaxy S4 GT-i9505's display stopped working. It just so happened when I took my phone out of my pocket. The last app I remembered using was Whatsapp and I did not mess with any settings before that.
Powering on and off this phone feels normal with vibrations but there is no display and the Samsung boot animation does not show. Calling to this phone works, with vibrations. Touch does not seem to be working as I tried to unlock the phone using pattern lock and there is no feedback. I am also able to detect the phone in my laptop but unable to access files as I am unable to unlock it.
I tried booting into Recovery/Download mode but it does not show anything. I have also pulled out the battery numerous times but the display still doesn't work.
Very looks like time to repair that phone, there are many phones likes that with board problem, just make sure LCD is not cracked, the bring it to local repair center do replace one component on the PBA.
quick one for you guys.
my touch screen is completely dead. my phone fell face down and shattered.
the problem is i have a pattern (dots) lock and cant even get the phone to recognize touch
when i hook it up to the PC it shows the phone but it wont show the mass storage until its unlocked.
how can get to it?
please help!
Is the phones bootloader unlocked? What android version are you on?
LGD800 AT&T
Just dropped it and the phone is malfunction.
a. the screen is shatter and touch isn't work.
b. usb port doesn't seem to work either.
Main problem now is that I have lockscreen with PIN on, since touchscreen isn't working I can't access it to turn on On-Screen feature.
USB port doesn't work, I think I can use wireless but again, can't get pass the lockscreen.
I have tried remote Unlock from AVG app which I currently has it running on the phone but still cannot get pass the screen.
I want to copy a few important files over first then perform Factory Reset via Recovery.
Does anyway I can do that?
All feedback and thought welcomed.
Also, since I got this phone for 4 months, i believe warranty is over. Anyone know which reliable, good service that I can send my phone for the screen fix?
Thanks all
Since the usb doesn't work so I don't think ADB pull will help, plus I have to turn on the USB Debugging anyway, which I can't now.
Got it.
Case closed.
Hello All,
I recently had an accident with my phone and the screen broke into a 1000 pieces but is still together in the mobile.
I am trying to recover the pictures in the internal memory of the S4, and then the insurance will give me an exchange phone.
The problem I am currently having is one that I havnt been able to find on any post on any website, The screen is broke so the touch screen doesnt work, the start button seems to not be working or does work but nothing is shown on the screen or on the LCD light to indicate its on. I am trying to plug the phone into KIES 3, But the phone is not found/recognised so dosnt appear on the screen, I try to press the start button but nothing happens to make it recognise the phone. So seems Kies is a dead end here as it dosnt pick it up, and I also know that USB debugging is not enabled, as I found out by trying to use DR FONE FOR ANDROID, I manage to get to the 2nd option screen but says the USB debugging has to be enabled to work, but without being able to see the screen I cannot enable it. Is there any programme to view the phones screen on the laptop/computer and be able to access the system and enable the USB dbug?
I am currently downloading the ANDROID SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT KIT as I read in some post, but will this resolve my problem or am I gonna hit a dead end???
I am hoping that the ROM/software of the computer hasnt broken or got corrupted as then the phone would be dead.....
Can someone please help me asap, as meanwhile I am without any phone till I am able to repair this one....
May I add that the PC dosnt recognsise it either, no new item appears in MY PC....
Mobile version is: GT-I9505 with the carrier being Orange Spain
