Is the LCD still working (can you see an image?) if so you can use an otg adapter and connect a usb mouse yes it will work :)

Is it possible it supports USB mouse input, like a OnePlus One?

Just out of curiosity, why did you set up Gmail to use 2 step verification?

These are all options...

  • Take SIM card, put it in $otherphone.
  • USB otg mouse input
  • Using the backup codes they give you... for this exact reason. W5eJ.png
  • Using the "problems receiving your code?" function...b8s3.png

The same reason you lock your door; typically with two locks. To be safe. 2 = The deadbolt and the 'handle's lock.

In all of the houses I've ever stayed in, they've all had two locks. Totaling around 6 in the past handful of years. Even apartments have two locks, in my experience.

the SIM card is smaller than the other phones i have in the house, it almost got stuck inside the one it was so small. i cant use the code because i literally CANT. 

You literally can't what? You get those codes when you enable 2fa, and if you don't have them, that's on you. In any case, there are size converters.

Like we said, get an OTG usb connector and plug a USB mouse into it to use it. How do you even manage to crack an M9 screen, when the phone is barely released?

i was doing some landscaping and a bag of river rock fell on my leg. 

Ok, it fell on your leg, how did it hit your M9? I'm assuming it fell on your thigh and your phone was in your pocket?
