USB debugging on Android

Issue

I have an android device which is secured with a screen lock. But now I don't remember the password to unlock my phone.

By default, the USB mode is set to always ask and also the USB debugging is disabled.

I tried unlocking my phone using a third party software on pc but it requires the USB debugging to be turned on.

How can I turn on USB debugging in this scenario?

Solution

This is not possible precisely because of the security issues it would present if it was.

The only way to access your phone is by doing a factory reset through the recovery mode, but be aware this wipes all of your data.
