Broken LCD won't mirror to TV with HDMI Cable.

[Ducke]

I broke the screen on my note 4. The phone works and I hear/feel it boot up, but screen in blank. I bought a hdmi cable to hopefully show my broken screen on the TV so I can move stuff to a micro SD. My note 4 that is fully functional plugs in and works fine. Why isn't my broken screen note working? Is there any way I can get my pictures and info from the "private" section on my broken note 4? USB Debugging was NOT enabled...

Yes I have a MHL. It works on my working non broken n4. But with my n4 that has a broken lcd and glass, it won't display on the TV.

Also, I have a thumb print lock, so I can feel my self unlock the screen.

Hmm, not sure what to suggest, then. Did the screen break due to a drop? If so, it might have damaged the microUSB port as well.

Yup, it was dropped. Idk if the port is messed up because I use the old phone as a battery charger. So if the port is messed up, it still charges, and my computer recognizes it when I plug it in.
