scrcpy is amazing software something other people might not have realised you could possibly get Dex on some unsupported devices. I got it working on my Galaxy Z Flip 5 using
scrcpy --new-display=1920x1080/284
Did you manage to get it to work without a functioning screen on the phone?
I believe that unless your phone already has debugging enabled and the machine was already added a trusted machine for debugging, you're out of luck for controlling a phone with a dead screen?

https://github.com/wsvn53/scrcpy-mobile would allow you to control Android phone from an iOS device.
This is something that non-techsavvy users would go nuts over how it seemlessly and easily works.
> A virtual display can now be made flex using --flex-display (or -x), meaning it can be resized dynamically along with the client window.
Amazing.

Amazing piece of software. I discovered it very recently when my screen OLED stopped working.

TIL Scrcpy is maintained by Genymobile and not Google. It's great for letting Claude Code operate your phone for doing QA tests
Scrcpy is fantastic, no idea how it Just Works™ so smoothly and painlessly, but it does.
