AC Question

So I dropped my phone and the screen broke (galaxy s4). However the led light works and I can still hear sounds from it.

I need to activate my tethering on it so I can download tools to back stuff up. However, since the screen is broken I can't install anything in the phone, USB debugging is disabled as well...

Is there anyway I can connect the phone to my computer through the normal USB cable and activate the tethering?!

Let us know if you have any luck.
 
I assume you have Samsung j2 and your phone is not locked
things required
otg cable
keyboard
Samsung j2
no lock gesture or pin

insert the keyboard with otg to j2 phone
and press numlock to unlock your scree and open settings anyhow take screen shot or
anyhow try to remove the lock, and write down the keyboard updown pattern on paper to open hotspot like mine
numlock //to open default screen lock
hold right // to select app drawer
enter // to go inside drower
15 keyboard right key //to navigate to settings : you may have as many depend on app installed minimum is 15
enter key // to select setting: once you got inside setting below keys are same
4 down // to hotspot option inside settings
enter //inside hotspot option
down
up
enter
enter // you can off your hotspot if you on earlier
right
enter// your hotsopt is on now

or you can simply install hotspot by installing ac hotspot app from play store
