I 've tried to connect via ssh to my phone, but the phone offers only authmethod_is_enabled publickey and no user-password method. I've also changed the sshd_config in:

PasswordAuthentication yes
AllowUsers  phablet

But it doesn't work?

If your PC is running Ubuntu, try installing the package "phablet-tools" and then use "phablet-shell" while the device is plugged to USB. That should deploy a ssh key for you. After that, it should work fine with normal ssh and through WiFi too.

Stop ssh if it is already running. And then run

 /usr/sbin/sshd

By this way, it will work, cause you are now running sshd manually and /etc/init/ssh.override is not applied.

However, it is not secure, since your password should be easy to brute-force now (unless you are not using 20-charachter password for screen lock:)

Connect to your phone as phablet@x.x.x.x and your screen lock code as password. Do not forget to reconfigure ssh safely!
