I installed the Apps4flip mouse on my phone. I must have made some mistake while putting in the ADB commands cuz now i don't have the mouse and none of the buttons are working either. I can't even use adb or scrcpy since i cant click OK to authorize the connection on my device! how can i uninstall the app or factory reset my phone?
Any ideas?

JKing2 If its the classic...
When the phone is off Press the PWR/END key and the Volume Down key simultaneously. Release the PWR/END key when the LG logo shows up on the screen and immediately press it again the factory reset menu should come up

L-B thanks i was able to get it into that menu, although when i tried to factory reset it wouldn't work. However I was able to get it into safe mode which allowed the buttons to work and then i used ADB to uninstall the app

JKing2 Uninstall the app and do the whole thing over again. Dial ##228378 and press call go to installed applications and remove the mouse.

Hi JKing2,
That's odd behaviour. I'm not sure if the safety code is removed from the mouse version on Apps4Flip website. This issue used to happen long ago (I have a warning for this in the README on the project page: https://github.com/virresh/matvt#important-points-to-know-after-installing), but thanks to some folks there are safeguards that prevent this from happening in the latest version.

Thanks LB for suggesting resetting. That should definitely work.
Apart from this, if you're stuck and have a hardware mouse handy (the one used on desktop PCs), that can be connected to phone for enabling ADB (for me an OTG cable works). I don't have a flipphone so I don't know if it would work for a flipphone though.

virresh Hi Virresh! No, unfortunately OTG mouse doesn't work on LG Classic flip. I tried that before you built your fabulous mouse. I can't thank you enough for elevating my daily experience using my phone. Stay safe there in India. Our thoughts are with you during this terrible time for your people.

virresh Thanks I was able to reset the phone

L-B Thanks L-B!
Hope everyone and their families are doing well in these hard times!

Yea I had same problem Too With Apps4Flip Mouse But Debugging is still on even when frozen buttons So i Just did pm list packages then i found the package of Apps4flip Mouse Did adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 (Package) and my phone started working again

Help! I bricked my phone!
I installed the app4flip mouse and then ran the commands.
Now the buttons all don't work!
I have the LG Exalt.
I tried L-B suggestion to Press "PWR/END key and the Volume Down key..." but it would not work (probably doesn't work on the Exalt.)
I was unable to connect a mouse...
And I didn't click "Always allow from this computer" on my phone so I can't uninstall using WebADB!!
What can I do???
Thanks!

hebersph if debuging is still on go to adb and type first adb devices then adb shell thenpm list packages` until you find the package of the apps for flip mouse (it happened to me also) make sure your on charging not file manager

hebersph turn of your phone then hold the volume down and the end button together then it will come up options on the phone so when you see the options use the volume buttons for up and down and the end button for enter so select the option that says safe mode and it will start working normally on safe mode when it’s on safe mode you won’t be able to see your app’s that you installed so exit safe mode and it will probably work again without crashing

SAME STORY HAPPENING WITH ME NOW.
Im trying to uninstall with adb but getting error. Can someone please post clear exact commands how to uninstall. I am not a pro at this at all. just a begginer

THE_SOMEONE

If it says error its either not on debuging or not on charging (Notifcations)

Yes I tried that. It didnt work for me. What does charging mean?

THE_SOMEONE

exalter123 when your phone is pluged in in your notifications there is a thing over there press it make sure its on charging not on file manager or anything else
