Android 14 Issues

[Da2MinuteNoodle]

On the Android 14 beta, launching scrcpy from the lockscreen reboots the device, copy-paste is broken, and --turn-screen-off no longer works.

Launch logs:

I understand scrcpy isn't yet supported on Android 14 but I'm raising the issue as soon as possible to bring this to the projects attention.

Thank you for your report.

The unexpected reboot is probably a system bug in Android 14 beta. The clipboard issue is fixed on dev. I have no solution for the "turn screen off" feature yet: https://github.com/Genymobile/scrcpy/issues/3784#issuecomment-1475755758

[Mikachu]

Google removed the SurfaceControl methods used to turn the screen off and moved them to internal classes in system_server, which I assume are not accessible by scrcpy. On (some?) qualcomm devices you can use the surfaceflinger backdoor code 20000 to turn the screen off, eg service call SurfaceFlinger 20000 i64 130 i32 2 where 130 is the id of the physical display (can be seen in dumpsys SurfaceFlinger --displays output)

[Pawloland]

Google must be having the same issue with turning screen off. I found this in AS setting, for their scrcpy clone baked into it. I haven't found any thread regarding it in their issue tracer, although, it may be just me not guessing correct magic words for searching.

Is there still no way to solve it now? My phone is Xiaomi 13, which has just updated its new MIUI14 system. The kernel is already Android 14, and I found that I cannot use Scrcpy's screen shutdown control function.

感谢您报告的信息。 意外重启可能是 Android 14 测试版中的系统错误。剪贴板问题已在 上修复。我还没有“关闭屏幕”功能的解决方案：#3784（评论）dev

Hi there! Got this issue on Pixel 7/Android 14, though updated scrcpy to the newest version. Glad if the issue will be solved because I really like using the app. Thanks anyway :)

[consp1racy]

You can use this to get the system server class loader and get DisplayControl from it using reflection

val classLoader = ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader()
val systemServerClasspath = Os.getenv("SYSTEMSERVERCLASSPATH")
val systemServerClassLoader = PathClassLoader(systemServerClasspath, null, classLoader) // classLoader may be null since API 24

Source: https://android.googlesource.com/platform/frameworks/base/+/master/core/java/com/android/internal/os/ZygoteInit.java#442

According to the commit linked in the android issue it accesses SurfaceComposerClient in cpp same as before. This could work unless there's a permission issue.

[yume-chan]

Someone on Android 14 please test this:

1. Download and unzip test.zip (source code at https://github.com/yume-chan/turn-off-screen)
2. Run the following commands:

adb push ./test.jar /data/local/tmp
adb shell
LD_PRELOAD="/apex/com.android.adbd/lib64/libadb_pairing_server.so /apex/com.android.adbd/lib64/libadb_pairing_connection.so /apex/com.android.os.statsd/lib64/libstatspull.so /apex/com.android.os.statsd/lib64/libstatssocket.so /apex/com.android.runtime/lib64/bionic/libdl_android.so /apex/com.android.i18n/lib64/libandroidicu.so /system/lib64/libandroid_servers.so" app_process -cp /data/local/tmp/test.jar:/system/framework/services.jar / com.example.test.Main

Please check:

1. Does it turn off your screen?
2. Use Scrcpy when screen is off, does touch and keyboard work?

If it doesn't work, please attach its console output and logcat logs.

To turn the screen back on, press power button twice, or add a 2 at the end of the command (...services.jar / com.example.test.Main 2)

[NicholasBuse]

Seems to work for me on a Pixel 7. I tried the above without scrcpy running (initially) and with scrcpy running already. Both scenarios had screen touch and keyboard access and the screen was off. ADB shell output:

Hello. I also have the dreaded Pixel 7 with the horrible Android 14 (bought this used and it's just been a long series of excruciating headaches).

Is this the bug that is causing the screen to go blank at the unlock screen? Is there a work-around, perhaps a way to bypass the unlock screen? Thanks..

No, that's a security feature. Scrcpy will always display black on the lock screen. Only "bypass" would be a swipe lock (no security). This relates to Scrcpy's ability to turn off the display while still being able to manipulate/see the device on your PC.

Not working for my XiaoMi14 with Android 14.

There isn't a flag in scrcpy to disable this? Honestly, it's false security. Either the connection is encrypted or it isn't.

Edit: even better, if there is a way to bypass the swipe lock when using scrcpy that would be even better.

[rom1v]

There isn't a flag in scrcpy to disable this? Honestly, it's false security.

This is the decision of the lock screen developers to set the "secure flag", and from Android developer to enforce the secure flag even with shell permissions (#2129).

Edit: even better, if there is a way to bypass the swipe lock when using scrcpy that would be even better.

MOD+m (shortcuts)

[xueshiji]

I have rooted my device, is there an easy way to temporarily turn off the screen?

[ballo]

Edit: even better, if there is a way to bypass the swipe lock when using scrcpy that would be even better.

MOD+m (shortcuts)

Your MacOS app has Mod-M bound to miniaturize screen

[rom1v]

By default, MOD is Alt or Super (and you can change it).

[ballo]

Welp all it does is make the screen go blank. scrcpy is still 100% unusable because the only way to use it is to physically unlock the phone which defeats the entire purpose.

[ballo]

The only work-around I can see is to BLINDLY swipe the phone open. The process is, hopefully needless to say, dumb.

Yes, this PR (4446) into ScrCpy works as well as the proof of concept by @yume-chan above for me.
