General :: Screen Dead On GS4 / MHL Screen Mirroring?
Oct 14, 2013
I need to get data off my phone and I am trying to figure out ways to do it short of replacing the screen on it.
It is stock and has a PIN lock screen. When I try hooking it up through Kies it says I need to unlock my phone and apparently whatever steps I need to do I cannot.
I was wondering if I buy an MHL hdmi adapter if it would start mirroring as soon as I plugged it in or if I would need to enable mirroring somewhere in a menu stuck behind the lock screen which I cannot get to?
if the MHL adapter starts working immediately when plugged in (mirrors lock screen) or how to get my data off?

how to screen mirror between my Samsung galaxy note 3 and my Samsung galaxy 10.1. i want to watch movies i have downloaded, through Google play, on my phone on my tablet for a bigger screen. I have sprint for my phone and my tablet has no service. Where this connection needs to happen is in places with little or no service. And before you say just download movies to my tablet when i'm hooked to wifi, i have. My tablet only holds 3 movies at a time, while my phone holds more than 10.

I would need to see the screen of my Galaxy S2 S5 on (which I can modding without problems). To be precise, I would take a remote viewfinder feature but unfortunately that function does not act on the basis of s2.
I try but I do not think BBQScreen applications such as functions, how can I do?

How to make screen mirror like as apsis coordinate...???
I tried:
Code:
persist.hwc.mirroring.enabled=1
persist.hwc.mirroring.transform=1
For example:
< | >
I found how to rotate manually:
Code:
Set in build.prob -> ro.sf.hwrotation = 0 for 0, 1 for 90, 2 for 180, 3 for 270 which you want...
But I need to mirror effect on all based android system

Are there any decent wireless mirroring apps to send my android screen to PC. NOT for media.
I am a teacher and want to use my Nexus 7 in the classroom (specifically things like drawing apps for diagrams etc) whist i am moving around the room and to give to students and whatnot.

I have used my Galaxy Note 2 together with an All-Share dongle showing screen mirroring with projector. This has been working perfectly for months but when I got N2 updated to Android 4.3 the screen mirroring gets connected but immediately disconnects.

Is there any way to control from outside an Android which screen has become nuts ?
I have a chinesse phone ( and MTK 6573) which touch screen has become nuts (most of it has become unresponsive and often a continuos touch imput is detected in the center-left side of the screen). So, it has become useless...
The thing is, I would like to access to it, in any way, to recover some of the data I have on it. Also, becouse I try to disasemble, volumen key seem not working. How could I connect to it ?
I tought of the mimobiler, but I need to enable it trought touch and hadn't been able I tought backing up and restoring in another mobile (an MTK6577), but volumen key not working for ColckWorkRecovery would be to control it from mouse or similar, in a way that does not affect the missfuncionality of the touch screen (should be disable I presume). But anything that allows me to recover the saved phones (several got stored in mobile instead of google account), and a couple of apps data (a fianace data and a notes app) would be great something like remote-titanium-backup ?

People are still sending me texts even though I can't read them. I can still hear notification sounds. I've gotta get a replacement quick, but I also need to get the important texts I missed. Is there any way I can get them through my mac?
To be clear, the screen is completely blank but I can still unlock it via touch pattern. It takes a few tries but Android File Transfer on the mac will tell me if it can or can't connect. If it can't, I just try again and I can get it. So the touch part still works, it just doesn't show any information.
The phone is a Galaxy Nexus. When I connect it to my Mac, I can see the files in it via the Android File Transfer window. However, I can't find the texts here.
I have the Android SDK installed and I was told I can do this: adb pull /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/mmssms.db..However the device shows up as offline when I do adb devices. I can't figure out a way get it showing up as online without being able to use the screen.

Screen has a dead zone right in the middle of the screen. The pictures show exactly where this zone is located. Should I get another one? This is my first EVO. This issue appears to have started last week. Running Android 2.2.

I'm on EVO #2 now. #1 failed after what I believe to be an overheating issue when using outside for a couple hours. So today I'm at the Red Bull Flugtag taking pics and video. Its warm(HOT)...after a couple hours I notice that I now have a dead touch spot on my screen. If you were to divide the screen into 4 quadrants...the lower left quadrant is now 100% completely unresponsive to touch. Rebooted, took the battery out, did a hard reset like Sprint advised all to no avail. I'm now on the waiting list again at BB.

I think the connection between the body and screen broke. Nothing shows on the screen, and there's no touch input available. But the device is still able to power on, reboot, and is recognizable from my Windows PC. I'd made a fairly recent nandroid backup, so I'm not in an emergency phase, but there are some files and photos I'd still like to try to recover from the broken device. Basically just files on the internal SD card. I was rooted, running stock Android on the latest OTA.
I'm not very experienced with ADB, but have started to give that a shot. I've tried various ls commands, but am stuck at a point where I get an error. Using a console (Console2), I ran ADB, then used this command:
Code:
adb shell ls -R /storage/sdcard0/
I got this error:
Code:/storage/sdcard0/: opendir failed, Permission denied
I'm not sure if this error is because I didn't open shell with root access. But when doing that, I run into other trouble because I'm not familiar with the linux-style commands. Another small issue I've bumped into is that when running the ls command on large file trees, the results are cut off by the console's 9999 line buffer.pull all the data from the entire internal SD card?

note: this is an artist rendition because my digital camera is terrible and i couldn't figure out how to get the dust in the shot. but it looks just like this. it's a black speck under the screen that can only be seen on bright surfaces and only if you are looking at the screen head on. i'm not sure if it might be a dead pixel. i can certainly live with this problem although i'd prefer if it wasn't there.
1. is this a dead pixel or dust?
2. how do i fix this, can i just exchange it at the vzw store whenever they stop being sold out?

So 31 days into using my HTC Evo (1 day past when I could actually do something about it), I now notice a scratch on the front display dead center. No idea how it got there, though I did let someone use it for the first time while I wasnt monitoring their every move with it, lol. To make the matter worse I ordered a screen protector 2 days before this happened (waiting on mail).
Just wanted to let people know it will scratch when you least expect it, so buy a screen protector.
My question is, considering I have never had a scratch on my cellphones before. Will a screen protector (ie: Boxwave ClearTouch Anti-Glare) make the scratch look less noticeable?
The 7$/m insurance (if you choose to get it) only means you pay 100$ to replace it compared to full retail. Toothpaste trick Ive read in random places online did nothing (bad or good). Not willing to risk making the issue any worse trying other methods, unless someone here has a good one.

I've had a HTC Evo now for 2/3 weeks, and I love it! But over the last few days it's started to act funny....
What it's doing is lets say I unlock the phone and have it laying on my desk, in the past it would show the screen in portrait orientation....but over the lat 2/3 days its been jumping to landscape and I have to pick up the phone, tilt it to get it back to portrait, and if I lay it back down it will go back to landscape.
This is mainly annoying when checking emails/texts/etc, but also if I am on the train and holding it near my waste, depending on the angle it will bounce back and forth from portrait to landscape!
I originally did a reformat when I bought it, and I am going to do it again shortly to see if that helps....just wondering if anyone else had this problem and if it's fixable (and yes i do want auto rotation)....
My phone has a few other problems such as minor light leakage, and a dead pixel (which I was going to look past and keep the phone)...so if this is something wrong with the hardware it would be a pretty good reason to get a replacement within my 30 days....

Went into the mall where I work this morning, there's a verizon kiosk right outside my store. Pick up an Incredible. Start driving home while playing with it. At a red light I notice a bright green pixel over an orange area of my wallpaper. Indeed it was there throughout any application I used. When I loaded up the browser and went to "about:blank" (which loads a fully white screen) I was able to see it there also.
Bummer. I live 14 miles from where I work, and where I picked up this Incredible. So I head over to another Verizon store closer to where I live. I show the agent, and he agrees and we swap it. Next phone... dust under the screen, 3 particles, right out of the box!
Once more another replacement. This time a red bright pixel around the same area (lower left quadrant of the screen) as the first phone! 4th phone into it, finally no issues.
Has anyone else gotten dead/ bright pixels in their AMOLED displays? Open your browser and enter this address in. about:blank, just like that. look hard, tell me what ya find. Took me four phones to get a good one. Hope everyone else here doesn't have to go through the same.

So my Droid's screen recently stopped working and I'm getting an exchange with Verizon. I have to send my dead phone back once I get the new one, and am concerned about the fact that it's rooted running Froyo. I'd like to restore the nandroid backup I made of stock 2.1. Can somebody give me advice on how to do this with a dead screen? Perhaps from the command line on my computer via USB, or perhaps the key strokes to do it in nandroid so I can replicate it by feel?

I bought 2 Epics last night was so excited! I like the phone except for a couple of things that i have noticed one of them being the wobble oreo effect that I seem to have on both phones and I just noticed I have dead pixels on both phones! I am so disappointed and don't know what to do? The pixels are one to two tiny black specks that can be seen on light background screen colors.

I've tried a few different apps to stream gameplay to my PC, mostly adb/java combos but they all have really low FPS that's only somewhat boosted by going from USB 2 to USB 3. The highest framerate I get at the moment is about 3fps, which is obviously unacceptable. Are there any screencasting programs out there that can mirror at 60fps?
Without root is preferable, I don't need to control the device just view the screen on my PC. Unless there's a way to root without resetting my data, I'm not really in a rush to do that.

I have been able to achieve WIRELESS display and audio mirroring with my AppRadio!
I just connected my adapter to the HDMI input, powered it via USB and then used the wireless display feature in the phone to connect.
I am using tasker to force landscape and manage screen timeout etc etc.
This is all really awesome but there is one major caveat, the display will mirror but I cannot interact with it through the head unit. How get that to work?
ADAPTER: Netgear Push2TV Wireless Adapter PTV3000-100NAS
APPRADIO: AppRadio 3 (SPH-DA210)
PHONE: VZW, MOTOROLA DROID MAXX

I am designing a home screen widget. I ran this widget on a HTC Hero device, which has a screen of 320 pixels * 480 pixels with mdpi. It ran perfect on HTC Hero. The widget takes 3 cells * 2 cells space, i.e. 240 pixels * 200 pixels.Then I ran this widget on a Nexus One device, which has a screen of 480 pixels * 800 pixels, mdpi. Since Nexus One also is mdpi, so I though 240dip is equivalent to 240 pixels on Nexus One and 200dip is equivalent to 200 pixels on Nexus One, so the widget will not take 3 cells * 2 cells space on Nexus One device. To my surprise, when running on Nexus One device, the widget take exact 3 cells * 2 cells, about 360 pixels * 300 pixels, on Nexus One device.I am confused. The layout xml above specifies 240dip in width and 200dip in height for the widget, but why did it take 360 pixels * 300 pixels on Nexus One Device? What am I missing?

A Tasker task that when I'm on the lockscreen, I can tap or double tap to turn the screen off. I've looked in the Tasker tasks and I'm unable to find anything for this. I already use the Nova gesture+ScreenOff app to turn the screen off when I'm unlocked and at the homescreen, which works perfectly. The only thing Nova can't do it turn the screen off from the lockscreen.

anyone have this problem w/ the moment whereby your face touches the screen and causes accidentally pressed keys, things to move on screen, etc. associated w/ touching the screen? I think I remember this happening once or twice on the moment but admittedly, I don't use it much so not sure if the lock screen was on, screen was off, etc. Just looking to see if anyone if affected by this or if it's a known problem.

I have the screen timeout set to 1 min which works fine until I use the phone. When using the phone the screen times out (and locks) in about 5 seconds. This is a real pain when using voicemail etc and you need to interact with the keypad.
