I cracked the screen on my xperia z3 compact and the top half of the screen doesn't respond to touch. I tried connecting a mouse with the usb adapter that came with the phone but it was unresponsive. I think it needs to have the screen unlocked for it to function. Help?

Alas, this so cute idea didn't work – Sony Xperia 3, the OTG cable, Logitech M100 (purchased just for this try:)

Any idea, hint?

You have to restart the phone after you connect the cable

I can not restart the phone, as i need to click something on the touchscreen which doesnt work.

does it also work like that if the battery is dead, and i plug the OTG cable in and tghen charge the phone and turn it on?
