Help.

Hi there! On my google tablet, I was messing around with the DPI (my device is rooted). I changed the DPI to the point where everything on the screen was too small. I cannot press anything, all of the buttons are too small. I have tried a factory reset but it didn’t change anything. I cannot connect my computer to it and change the DPI that way because USB debugging is disabled. I have ran out of options. Are there any other options that you may know of? I remember changing a build-prop file. Thank you.

With debugging disabled, there's not much chance of pushing a new build.prop to your device. The best option would be to locate and flash the factory firmware for your table. What's the make and model?

When I saw that someone actually responded with a solution, I got really excited, thank you haha. The model number is : DL718M-G. I am not sure if that is what you are looking for but I hope it is.

It is. The problem is that your tablet (Digiland DL718M) is a budget Chinese import from several years ago. There's not going to be much developer support and they don't seem to have an official site for downloading firmware. I did find one site that claims to be stock firmware for that model, but it's pretty cheesy looking and the link takes you to "needrom.com" where you need to be a member to download. Who knows if the link is valid, a scam or worse? I can't say that I would bother for a $50 tablet.

Oh Okay, so it's better to just buy a new one. Thank you so much for your help! I just wanted to know if there was any other option before tossing it. Thank you so much!

On other option that *might* work for you is to plug a mouse into a OTG USB adapter and see if you can get an active cursor on your tiny display. It might give you enough control to revert your build.prop.

Maybe see if safe mode would work

I actually got my computer to connect with my tablet! I am not sure how, maybe the factory reset turned on the USB Debugging. What do I do now?

Are you there?

Without USB debugging enabled, ADB isn't going to be able to push a new build.prop to your tablet.

I messaged you. Is there another way I can turn on USB debugging?

 

[lunatic59]

I prefer to keep all of this in the forums. The more eyes on it the more likely you're going to get a solution.

Anyway, you can't enable debugging without access to the phone. Sorry. I would seriously try the OTG mouse thing.
