Broken LCD-Not touch screen. Help? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshoot

I dropped my phone, and the LCD broke-NOT the glass or digitizer! I need to get all of my stuff off of there, and I tried using [email protected] to do it, but it keeps saying "REJECTED." I suspect I need to hit some sort of confirmation on the screen of the phone to allow ADB to access it-thankfully Debugging Mode was already on when it stopped working. There is very important text logs on it that I need by Tuesday, because I'm sending this phone back to Sprint as part of the replacement process. I can obviously not see what is going on and that's why I needed to get some way to view it on my PC.

weird glitch - screen is wonky

i've just had my XDA exec replaced because i cracked the screen, and the new one is a bit wonky. whenever i go to the phone window, it also opens up the Connection Settings window as well. it also reopens the CS window whenever i make a call and recieve a call.
any ideas ??
Hi there
I too have an XDA with a cracked screen. Can you, by any chance, tell me how you went about getting the XDA replaced? I have taken it back to the shop where I bought it, but they were not prepared to send it back to be repaired/replaced!
Any help you can give me would be really useful, and sorry this does not answer your original question. :wink:
Regards, Sarah-Jane
Go Start/ Settings System Tab then tap the Screen icon In here is a button for "Align Screen" tap this and take care when you press the cross hair targets - this should get the device back on track - Mike
well i restarted it and it doesn't seem to be doin the glitch anymore, but thanx anyways mikealder.
sarah-jane. I actually had mine insured, and so i just made a claim and they replaced it. altho to be honoust i would rather they had just fixed it, i lost all my contacts and settings and files and whatnot.

Screen No Response but Occasional Response HELP

Hey I have an elf the T mobile version 64/128mb , phone has been working for 8 months now all of a sudden it wont respond but the call and end call buttons work fine the 4 way navigation key only work when lets say you go into the call records by pressing the green call button. You cannot do anything besides change time, answer calls and hang up. Please Help Tried hard reset soft reset, and the phone is unlocked to all networks using the network key method.
this looks a hardware problem may be the LCD or the digitizer
Is it fixable by software or maybe opening it up to fiddle ?
It is not the LCD, it is only the digitizer (the thing that is responsible for the 'touch') I recently had the same problem, until 1 week ago I purchased a new digitizer off eBay for $15.
Do not get LCD and Digitizer, just the digitizer to save money.
If there is no cracks or damage to the screen (bad cracks, pixel damage etc) you only need a digitizer.
I have a video I made of me changing mine which I'm editing atm. I do have photos.
This is the correct response. It is not software if it started to work occassionally and then stop, this is what happened to mine. 99% it is digitizer!
Thats cool please email me link [email protected] for your video I will order one now.

Hey I read its going to ttake 14 days for my digitizer to come , in the mean time is there a way I can bypass the touch the screen alignment page when you first boot up?
you can get www.mymobiler.com
Cheers.
Tried it but requires you to accept the installation on the phone any other ideas?
Thats weird, mine doesnt.
it will auto install.
It says on the little status box installing mymobile to the phone then it dissappears saying not connect. this message comes up everytime you try and run it.
Sorry, I ran out of brain juice.
You have to stick with this for a while than, and bear the bitter pill.
MyMobiler should be able to install onto the phone itself.
But I really wonder why this doesnt work.

and it does auto install its the part where it asks you to accept remote.exe and you have to tap yes or no for it to run on your device, havent bypassed that yet but atleast I can just accept calls and check texts but let me know if you have a solution for the whole remote.exe thing

Anyway to get pass the lockscreen?

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.

S4 broken screen and Kies does not recognise phone

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

Samsung S8 screen gone black and unusable

Hi,
My girlfriend has a Samsung s8 and the screen has gone black and we can not see the screen. We are still getting notifications but no screen.
The thing is she needs to access the phone to retrieve images and videos of our 5 month old. Also to access texts to access her bank account and Facebook gmail etc.
I have looked on net and been told to put in debugging mode and connect to pc but I can't see the screen so I can't do that, I have been told to put it in download mode to use some software to do it but I can't put in download mode.
Anyone any ideas to wither mirror the phone to pc and use on pc or put in download mode without using the buttons or screen of the phone.
Thanks
Sounds like the digitiser is broken.
Don't think there's a way to mirror the screen without downloading an app or changing system settings I'm afraid. Your girlfriend should still have warranty on the phone though, so I'd say send it to Samsung for them to fix it. Unless the device was dropped or tampered with and/or there's visible damage that's the way to go I guess.
