Yeah the fingerprint scanner works when rooted. OK Google works with screen off as long as you set it up to recognize your voice for security. Only exception is you are required to enter a pin on first boot.

[Q] Pattern Locked, No Touch & Need SDcard backup. - No digitizer, visible screen

Hello
Before you ask, I have searched high and low for a solution for this, trying different attempts, so here is my thread. If you find or know of another thread with the magic solution, please link me and I will thank you eternally
Me and my girlfriend have just got back from holiday and I broke the screen whilst we were away. I need to recover the data from the sdcard as it has all our holiday photos.
It is the LG Nexus 4, running the latest, STOCK, untouched Android 4.2.2.
Potential Problems
Mobile Data & WiFi is disabled - holiday so they were turned off
Screen touch / digitizer does not work
Stock Android 4.2.2
USB debugging is OFF
There's a daily alarm set which is p** me off!
Please, any suggestions?
Thanks, Josh.
As an update to this, Wi-Fi IS turned on, so I can use the online playstore to update an app, but cannot use the touchscreen and so access the app etc.

Untouched device with USB Debugging off. No way to crack this (as far as I know). A very similar issue, but still no solution. You may read this, or this.
To unlock, simply get your touchscreen fixed. No other way. Sorry mate.

Thanks. Great news - the phone is insured, but if I take the SD card out or do the touchscreen myself, it will invalidate the insurance. It's not just the front touchscreen which is broken, the back is shattered also.

Wow. Can't believe there's no way to do this. Thanks for the help those who have read this but also, cannot help!

As long as you replace the screen by yourself all the data will be saved. Screen replacement is very easy and is much cheaper than paying LG

Maybe your device was locked and you update it to one unlocked firmware?

S-pen removal or insert not detected

Hi guys, I've got a Note 4 N910F which I've just fitted a new screen to for my mate, I flashed the official firmware this morning, and the s-pen was been working great, but now removal or insertion are not being detected, I've just flashed the Emotion custom rom, and that has made no difference either, the S-pen works, i can write with it and control apps etc it just wont detect when I remove or insert it, any idea what the problem could be please anyone
You could try to download these app " Note Buddy (S Pen Helper) " , but i dont know if it work because i have not try it yet. Let me know.

Yep, its really strange because the pen is working too
Hmm. Maybe the S-Pen detection (hardware) isn't working anymore. Kinda reminds me of the S Pen gate of the Note 5.

My first thoughts exactly, I'd assume it hardware if it doesn't work after a clean wipe or flash.
i have seen many used note 4s in the market that had the same issue, its a hardware problem. when you take out the spen the commands dont show up.
It's not that big of a problem. You can activate the commands menu by clicking the S Pen instead.
I'm pretty convinced that it is the internal sensor on the phone that is faulty, but can't find any info as to where it is on the mainboard, or how it works, does anyone have any ideas or info please

Fingerprint reader stopped working and screenlock later

Hi,
my fingerprint reader stopped working (not recognizing finger) so i had to use pattern. A day later the security setup changed - even though the fingerpring & pattern was required, any button normaly turns on screen and vibrates as if I touched the reader. Fingerprint patterns are still present but I cannot add any as the reader doesn't recognize the finger.
I didn't do any system updates or changes. Running version 12.1-YOG4PAS3OH
Anybody with this issue?

1st Don't Panic.
Try other ROMs or from recovery mode do a factory reset (Only if you cannot find any solutions..

There are multiple solutions in zuk forum which sometimes work(delete database, delete credentials) or not and then it's a hardware failure. It's all documented and can be easily find with Google or forum search.

Thanks, I tried those of course before creating this thread. the difference is I din't change/update the system nor did any other change, removed the smart lock settings etc. I am afraid only thing to try is the factory reset.

It's essential to tell what you've done before requesting for help, otherwise you see replies like that
Hardware issue with fp reader is very common. A friend of mine has also dead fp reader. My zuk has defective digitizer. As good as the hardware looks on paper, the quality is very bad compared to the device's sold.
same here it's a hw problem, i was on cos like you and after i went to cm13 (so much better btw) but still doesn't work. i'm waiting for the fingerprint replacement I ordered.

magisk crash with root

hello friend developper.
I followed the guide for root min oneplus 8 pro.
Everything went pretty well, however when I am in magisk and I want to give super U rights to an application a pop up appear and disappear quickly and nothing happens ...
DO you have any idea?
IN2023
OS 11.0.1.1.IN11BA
Update magisk or change channels then change back
Do you have systemless turned on? If not turn it on

ok, I started the whole root procedure again and it worked! besides, I finally access the factory mod! ?. Your tutorials are great and it helped me a lot. I just have to succeed in calibrating my fingerprint which no longer works since I changed my screen. In China they sent me the calibration procedure but it failed at the last step. I dig the problem
Thanks
Glad you got it sorted!

Lovely.
Well done. Good luck with your fingerprint.
It'd be really useful information if you documented what you actually do with your fingerprint calibration as it may help others who the up in the same position.
Plus you'll structure your process much better if you're logging what you're doing.
Might help.

Even though there's a failure did it work?
Just thinking, did the screen that was you got actually allow the fingerprint to pass through?
I'd have thought it would but thought I'd ask
unfortunately its not working yet but I believe it ?. the fingerprint work on the old screen .... ???

Afaik there is no other solution than recalibrate your fingerprint sensor. And this can be done at oneplus service center. I havent heard that anyone succesfully have done that them selves. Screen replacement makes previous persist.img useless as they seem to be tied together. I had my screen replaced twice (green tints etc) and they had to use their own tools to make fp work again
hmm I understand. nobody succeeded in doing the calibration. however, this does not seem impractical. I am working on the problem right now with our Chinese friends. They manage to carry out this calibration ?. I will send my oneplus to oneplus after trying everything ∆∆
