My smartphone's screen just broke up (only the touch screen to be accurate), so I try to use AndroidScreencast (as it was previously rooted and adb ready).
Java program starts, all seems OK, but I can't unlock my phone (nexus 4, custom ROM Android 6) using pattern (3x3 grid), (error "Schéma incorrect", means wrong pattern). I can swipe it (to show the unlock pattern screen).
Of course, I'm 100% sure about the pattern I draw.

Maybe it's a timeout issue ? (as the delay is important, according to the screen's phone and the AndroidScreencast display.

Hi.
The problem is that swipe gesture support only 2 points, it means that you can do swipe only straight.
It's limitation of adb - it doesn't support complex gestures

Just a quick reply :
I was able to bypass (more precisely remove) the lockpattern with this command (or change rm by mv if you want a backup) :
adb shell rm /data/system/*.key
Then I reboot my phone, and it goes directly to my homescreen (without password or pattern)

Maybe it could be nice to add this to your app, as I think some usage of this app is to be able to use a android device even is the screen/touchscreen is broken (in order to make so backup).
