Knight in shining armor with a defective display & touch

Now to my "alternative" use, where she acted as a knight in shining armor:
A Samsung S4 bangs on the stone floor, and touch screen function are dead,
Housing damaged. The fact that the phone itself but is still working, I realized at the
Reactions on the keys. A repair is not worthwhile. Important data should be saved but
Confidential and be safely deleted. Backing up through gravel or via MyPhoneExplorer
USB cable failed because the unlock so I could not enter the PIN.

This docking station can also replace just the defective parts (at times):
Power supply off, connect via HDMI cable to the TV and a USB Tastaur tuned for the input.

So that I could enter the PIN to unlock and for subsequent backup PIN
deactivate (if you umstöpselt fast enough to the PC before the screen
locks again, the latter is possibly not essential). Even the USB debug
fashion I could activate so.

Thus a backup of the data, nothing stood in the way. Saved data, and then
reset to factory settings. Problem solved! The purchase was worth it.

A few tips still on the edge:
Not every USB keyboard translucent to be compatible, only a very economical with only
50mA Current consumption has been recognized with me.
Even when HDMI signal I did not have the same luck: On a TFT monitor with HDMI-DVI
Adapter cable I only got in about 1 out of 30 trials shortly a picture before the connection
after a few seconds broke again. On a Samsung TV, it works immediately, even if the
Aspect ratio is not always recognized automatically perfect. But that's for the
Purpose incidental.
