Old phone
I have an old Samsung M30s with a completely broken display, but the phone itself still works. Before the display died, I had already enabled Developer Options and USB debugging.
Right now I can connect it to my laptop and use scrcpy to mirror/control the phone from my PC without any issues.
I was wondering:
- Is there any way to control the phone using another Android phone instead of a laptop?
- Can scrcpy work from Android-to-Android somehow?
- Are there other useful things I can repurpose this phone for since it still has 128GB storage and decent hardware?
I was thinking about turning it into:
- a dash cam
- security camera
- media/storage device
- secondary server/download box
Also, if none of that works, I’ll probably just use TalkBack + keyboard/mouse to manage it and automate some tasks using macrodroid.
Would love suggestions from people who’ve reused old broken-display phones before.
