[Q] Rooting a chinese smartphone with broken lcd screen. - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone,
My aunt gave me a chinese smartphone (n9000 i9220 pad) with the lcd screen broken.
I tried to control it from my pc with this software ([email protected]). It NEEDS USB debugging to be activated in order to work. Since my aunt obviously didn't have it activated, I could only see the smartphone's screen when I entered to recovery (Where i think debugging it's activated by default). So I need to activate the USB debugging option with no image from the smartphone. To archieve this, I found a solution that consists in editing manually a file on /system, but since it's not rooted, I don't have write permissions on /system.
I'm not gonna die if I can't do this, but I want to know if it's really possible.
More info:
Exact model: e1809l_v75_gq1008_ov5647_v20
*I can access the smartphone with adb, so If anyone needs more info that I could retrieve from it, just tell me.

[Q] Phone Memory partially pin locked?

Hey there,
Recently my Galaxy S3 fell to the floor and the display broke. Now I'm desperatly trying to recover all of my data from the internal phone memory. The memory has 16gb in total, but when i copied it to my hard disk drive i could only copy 2gb. It seems that the camera folder (DCIM) is the only folder taht has been completely restored. Is it possible that all other folders are pin locked? Or is it more likely that the storage is broken? Anyway, what i really need to recover is the phone calendar, since not all entries had been synced with google calendar. I can't find ANY calendar file on the internal storage, and i've searched most common places (data/data/android.provider.calendar etc.). My research showed taht the only way to access the phone with recovery apps is when the debug mode has been activated. Since the display is broken there's no way for me to activate it.
In short, my questions:
- Why can I see only some of the internal storage? (2/16GB) -> broken or locked?
- do you have any idea how i can restore the phone calendar since there doesn't seem to be any calendar file?
- is there a way to activate the Debug mode with a broken screen?
I consider buying a new display just to be able to access the files. But since i don't want to waste any money i need to be 100% sure that this works. But the fact that i've only been able to copy 2GB from the internal storage and that i dont seem to find the calendar files makes me doubt that this will help at all.
additional info: I'm accessing the phone via USB cable without a sim card.
Thanks for any help.
Edit:
I also tried connecting the phone to Kies (i never used Kies before) by activating the "download mode" on the phone by pressing some buttons at the same time when turning the phone on. Kies seems to recognize something but it just keeps on saying "connecting to phone..." for hours. I take this as another indication that the phone might be broken beyond the display.
Edit2:
I found this:
inaccessible folders: folders you won't see due to lacking permissions, e.g. those in /data. To protect your apps' data, those folders belong to the corresponding application, and are only accessible by the app (in the context of file-permissions; please see the tag's wiki for closer information on those). To make those visible, you need root access on your device, and a file explorer supporting that (e.g. ES File Explorer)

Is there any way i can get root access to the phone with a broken display?

[Q] Touchscreen broken, unable to access

Hi
My mother has a stock BQ Aquaris 5 HD, probably running on 4.3
Someone spilled a chemical fluid over the phone, and it stoped working. She took it to a local shop where they tried to clean and dry it, but somehow they managed to strip off the touchscreen connector on the mainboard.
The phone actually turns on, but it is impossible to use the touchscreen. No debug was activated. No SD card was installed, so everything was on the main storage. Replacing the mainboard is not an option as the storage will be lost anyways...
I started the phone on recovery mode, allowing me to backup all the data on the SD cart, resulting in a .backup file, which i cannot manage to open in any way. I tried to use Android Backup Extractor (ABE) but it only works with .ab extensions. Changed the extension manually and it did not work either.
I request help, if anybody knows how to recover the pictures and contacts from that file, or if there is some way to enter the main storage unit with a locked screen...
thanks in advance
Anybody?

Recover File (screen out)

Hello everyone
First, sorry for my English
I have an Honor 8X whose screen has crashed (but not the touchsreen overlay).
I would like to recover some files from the internal memory, but I can’t unlock the phone cause I can’t see anything.
Is there a way to recover those files, with adb drivers for example*?
Developer Mode is enable but not usb-debug (I switch it off when don’t use).
I tried [email protected] but usb-debug is required.
Thanks*!

Broken screen and data recovery for Pixel XL

Interested in pulling all the data off of a Pixel XL that has a broken screen. It lights up in some places, but doesn't respond to touch. The fingerprint on the back responds but since the phone has been restarted, it requires a keypin. I have all google cloud/backup services disabled.
Is there a way I can manipulate the screen with a dev kit or other software while it's connected to my PC? I know the pin, obviously, but I can't enter it to enable file transfer for USB.
Thanks

If ADB ( read: USB debugging ) is enabled on phone, then several PC tools are available to bypass and/or even remove FRP lock via ADB, e.g TenorShare 4ukey.

4ukey deletes all data from the device, that doesn't help at all but I appreciate your reply.

I've heard of the apps called "Broken Android Data Extraction"
I think it made for recover the data of the broken android phone. Hope this one will help!

This is for Samsung phones only and it costs money. This doesn't help either, but thanks for your reply

Actually you would need to disassemble the device and to a JTAG to the eMMC. It does cost money to get everything and some skill is required as it's no easy task. Any other method may be troublesome trying to retrieve data
