Screen Mirroring problem - Nokia 6.1 (2018) Questions & Answers

Hi guys, why I can't see the button top right to enable wireless display?

Noticed that as well when swiping down and not finding the wifi or bt icons to enable them. I also noticed that when i plugged the phone on t o charge the charging icon in the battery displayed that it was charging. Then when i went to pull down the USB connecting options drop down menu it wasnt there. Then once it did appear it was on the last option i used "transfering pics" instead of defaulting to "charging" like every other phone ive ever owned.

How can I fix it?

Wireless display is not officially supported by Google, so you won't find it in our phone. The only option is Google Cast (to Chromecast).

Voice detection screen off (Google Now, Ok Google)

Hi,
I'm starting to use frequently this ok google command for reminders, weather and other things, but it's a pain to double tap on screen everytime I want to use.
According to phonearena LG G4 has the same snapdragon 808 as Nexus 5X but in Nexus this feature works. My question is, is there a way to enable OK google while device is locked and unplugged from charger?
Maybe installing Cyanogenmod will work ?

According to the official documentation this is not supported on any device regardless of ROM:
https://support.google.com/websearch/answer/6031948?co=GENIE.Platform=Android&hl=en
Open the Google app Google .
At the top left, tap Menu Menu and then Settings and then Voice and then "Ok Google" detection.
Check the box next to "From Google app."
For certain devices, you can also change some settings to turn on "Ok Google" detection outside the Google app:
Check the box next to "From any screen" or "Always on."
Follow the instructions to teach Google what your voice sounds like.
Note: "Always on" isn't supported in all languages. If you're unable to turn this feature on, your language may not be supported.
The documentation also states that if you enable the screen lock related setting in the Google app that's all you need to do is to turn on the screen you do not need to have a charger connected but the screen has to be on to make Google work
This option is not enabled even if i change leanguage to english us. The option is only to detect when plugged to charger. Different from nexus or note 4 for example.

see attachment.
I can set this and can even unlock my device with ok google.
My device is not plugged in ! I have to activate the screen first but then it works even when locked.
It also works fine when I use a Bluetooth headset when long pressing the function button there. Even when screen is off.
I use RR.
.
I'm on Imperium and OK Google works when screen on, regardless if it is locked or not. When is plugged to charger it also works with screen off. With a Bluetooth headset it works even with screen off if I press and hold the headset call button for a couple of seconds.

How to enable "Always on display"?

I think I have enabled this feature in the settings but the screen still goes black after a few seconds. Please advise.
Display>Advanced>Ambient Display
Yes, i enabled it there
since we are on the subject of displays, how do you get the pics to stop scrolling on the always on display when you are charging from the pixel stand?
I don't know if restarting my phone or the screen protector was interfering with the sensor but I removed it and it seems to work now.
is there no way to add an image to the ambient display or any other customization?
settings have a search function just type anything in there that you may want to change or generic phrase to narrow it down like screen will give you all the screen options only.

Can't change usb mode because menu hides super fast

Just like the title says, got a LG g7 eaw, it came with Android 9 and after upgrading to 10 with LG bridge I noticed this issue, I could no longer change the usb connection mode, it's stuck in charging.
I go to developers options, find the usb menu but when I tap it the popup menu flashes super fast and disappears before I can tap on a different mode. Looks like a bug but I don't know what to do to fix it, can't flash another rom because the computer won't see the stupid phone.
Any other way to change the connection mode? Taping the notification doesn't work either.

@Sara-Ester have you found the solution? I'm hitting same issue with my V40. :/

Bypass HDMI lock icon (i know unlock pattern)

Hello. Recently, i dropped my phone so unluckily that screen is completely broken and display is completely black and touch doesn't work as well. The point here is i want to back up my data. I found i can stream my screen over HDMI to the TV.
But the catch here is i see only lock icon on TV and unless i unlock the phone with the pattern, i'm unable to see contents of screen.
Can i somehow bypass this lock icon so i can see contents even on locked screen?
PS: as i wrote in title, i know unlock pattern but it is useless unless i can enter it into the phone somehow.
I also found ADB command that can simulate input via coordinated but it need to have debug mode on (which i have i believe) but also need agree that this PC can use ADB commands on this device. Unfortunately, i didn't check the "remember me" box.
Any ideas how could i do this?
You can easily connect a mouse with a usb-c to usb-a adaptor.
I just tried to connect my trusty Logitech G9x to the 7t and it immediately worked.
Edit:
I guess you need the USB c port for the HDMI but there are plenty of dongles that support both hdmi and usb
Another idea is to enable over adb the setting in developer mode/show taps
So then you can see roughly on the tv where you are tapping
Hope this helps
have you found the solution ?

Question Smashed Display g60s - no touch or visibility

Hi all,
If anyone can help, I'd be very happy! My son dropped his g60s and smashed the display, we can't use it. We can see a small live portion of the screen, but barely visible. We can unlock the lockscreen but can't really do much else as we can't see or touch the screen to select anything.
I would like to recover images/videos if possible. No SD card, and USB Debugging is turned off. Totally stock out of the box phone.
Any ideas please? Googling a solution is not proving very successful.
Thank you in advance.
(I'm a little out of touch with Android, sorry - I used to be regular on here but have not posted on XDA for a while!)
Hi again.
I'm aware of random post etiquette and that this may appear illegitimate or potentially looking for assistance to beach security, so I'm attaching my proof of purchase for ref., and a pic of the damaged display.
I can also get past the screen lock now by attaching a keyboard to enter the pin. But I can't set to allow USB connection as opposed to charge only when I connect the cable, and I certainly can't navigate to developer settings to allow recovery software.
The best option for you if you want to extract data from the mobile is to use one of the usb-c to hdmi adapters with extra usb.
That way you should be able to connect your or in this case your sons phone to the display and connect a mouse to use it as a pointer and to unlock the phone if its password/pin locked.
Usually there might be prompt asking you if you want to connect it to tv, but it might just connect automatically.
Just recently i have purchased exactly the same phone for my mom i can check it for you if you can connect it directly to other display without adding
Yes, search for a USB-C to non-MHL HDMI because the regular USB-C to HDMI dongle does not work. Somthing like this. This will let you do screen mirroring on TV and copy the contents
