connect damaged turbo to tv & remote keyboard

[mikeypop1948]

I have a turbo with a damaged screen that is dark. I want to connect to a TV and a remote keyboard to access messaging. I have a new replacement & would like to transfer messaging to it or to my laptop. How can I do so?

Welcome to Android Central! The Turbo supports Miracast, but not MHL or Slimport. So you'd need a TV that supports Miracast (or a Miracast adapter). Also, do you know if the screen still registers touches?

where do I find a Miracast adaptor? The screen does not register touches. It's dead as a door nail.

Belkin has an adaptor. Do you know if the screen must be usable in order to tell the adaptor to cast the screen to the TV? Any advice concerning the remove keyboard interface?

If the screen doesn't register touches, then try a basic USB mouse connected via OTG cable.

can the USB mouse and the Miracast adaptor both be attached to the turbo at the same time?

I don't think the phone needs the Miracast adapter, because it should already have it built in. The TV would need to be compatible with Miracast, so that's where you might need to plug in an adapter.
