Re: Help! Have to read last SMS with broken touch screen
 
OK, yea you need H-E-N or USBcontrol to get that working, this is not USB OTG.....
Is there a keyboard shortcut to open and navigate the settings tray?
I think there is but I cant get my N900 to boot right now.
try these form https://www.fonearena.com/blog/9398/...shortcuts.html

Maybe try to pair a bluetooth mouse and use keyboard to tab to accept the pairing? It is a real problem to get input here, especially since I am not sure how to get into the settings tray with a keyboard assuming you have USB OTG installed.

I have installed H-E-N and I had used it with usb-mouse some years ago, but how to active it without touch now?

Best keyboard shortcut wasn't listed there:
Ctrl + Shift + X Starts Xterm.

If somebody find a way to pair without touch then I would go to shop and I buy bluetooth mouse.
