This article will show you how to enable USB debugging on an Android phone with a broken screen without using an OTG cable. USB debugging is a feature that allows you to connect your phone to your computer and access its files and settings. This can be helpful if you need to fix a problem with your phone or if you want to back up your data.

If your Android phone has a broken screen, you may not be able to enable USB debugging using the usual method. This is because USB debugging is located in the Developer options menu, which can only be accessed by tapping on the build number 7 times. If you can’t tap on the screen, you won’t be able to enable USB debugging.

However, there are two ways to enable USB debugging on an Android phone with a broken screen without using an OTG cable.

Method 1: Using ADB Commands

1. Connect your phone to your computer using a USB cable.
2. Open a command prompt window on your computer.
3. Type the following command:

adb devices

This will list all of the connected devices. Your phone should be listed in the output. 4. Type the following command to enable USB debugging:

adb shell settings put global usb_debugging_enabled 1

• Your phone will reboot and USB debugging will be enabled.

Method 2: Booting into Recovery Mode

• Press and hold the power button and the volume down button at the same time until your phone enters the bootloader menu.
• Use the volume buttons to navigate to the “Recovery mode” option and press the power button to select it.
• Your phone will boot into recovery mode.
• Use the volume buttons to navigate to the “Advanced” or “Options” menu.
• Use the power button to select the “ADB debugging” option.
• Your phone will reboot and USB debugging will be enabled.
