      Hardware isn’t the limitation, its willingness to fight locked down hardware and the power management of android. You might be able use ADB to control it, install termux and then with that, SSH server and then a server of some sort.

      In my experience, most phones don’t seem to boot sans battery, so its just a matter of time until the battery goes poof and your system goes down. Some manage it though - you do get a decent amount of hardware for the power consumption.

        Probably only replacing the screen would work at this point. Android is quite flexible but you need some touch input to operate it.

        It just got dramatically worse, screen jumps up and down, unusable I won’t even be able to take phone calls. I can’t even restart it.

          If it’s an OLED and it’s cracked you have only a couple hours to get your shit off of it before it goes completely blank. LCDs are usually somewhat fine depending on how they’re broken. They don’t get worse

            It took a day to go from partially fucked to unusable, the entire screen is like seizuring. There was no actual crack though, must have hit a rock or something getting lobbed onto the ground.
