If the screen is completely unresponsive, you might also consider using an OTG adapter with a mouse to control your phone. That way you can enable USB debugging if that’s not already done.
That’s an interesting suggestion! Has anyone here actually tried that? I’d love to know if it worked for you.

I’ve had issues with Vysor crashing. Sometimes, it doesn’t recognize my device unless I restart both my phone and the PC. It’s a common software error. Be prepared for that!

Come on, how hard can it be? Just turn it off and on again, right? Haha, joking aside, I’ve seriously found that restarting often helps with these apps.
Thanks for the laugh! But you make a good point. Sometimes it’s the simplest solutions that work best.
Are both your phone and PC on the latest software version? Device compatibility can really affect how well mirroring works. Always check that too.
I tried using a third-party app, but it ended up making things worse. Always be cautious with downloads. Some apps can contain malware.
Good point! I’ve seen a lot of users overlook this detail. It can save a lot of headaches!
I feel your pain! I once had to deal with a broken screen, and it took hours to finally get it mirrored. Patience is key!
A friendly reminder: Don’t forget to backup your data regularly! Lost work due to a broken phone can be super annoying.

Absolutely! It’s easy to forget until it’s too late. Have any of you managed to recover data without mirroring?
You know what? Most of us go through this at least once. Just when you think you have it all figured out, a small error could ruin the entire setup. Keep trying and good luck!

Thanks for the ongoing advice, everyone! Hoping to piece together some solutions from here. If anyone has any more tips, I’m all ears!
If your screen is broken, the first step should be data recovery. Have you tried connecting your phone to your PC using a USB cable? Sometimes, you can access the storage directly.
That’s a great suggestion! Alternatively, have you thought about using software like Dr.Fone? It can help extract data even if the screen is unresponsive.

Using recovery software is a good idea, but be cautious! Some tools might not be reliable. Always do a bit of research first.
Totally agree! It’s best to check user reviews before downloading anything. You wouldn’t want to make the situation worse.
Have you considered a backup solution through cloud services like Google Drive? If you enabled it beforehand, you might be in luck!
Good point! I often forget about those cloud backups. It’s worth checking if that was set up before the screen broke.
If all else fails, you might want to look into professional data recovery services. They can often access data that regular users can’t.
