[Q] Shattered Att Galaxy s2 screen preventing contact transfer

I have shattered the screen of my AT&T Galaxy S2. It will power up but screen is completely black. I cant upgrade until Oct and will reluctantly use my wife's old Iphone 3g. All my contacts were on phone and backup on Gmail. Does anyone know of a way to transfer my 700 plus contacts to an I phone without being able to use screen on my Galaxy?
If they are on Google just access them on gmail.com in the contacts section
Although a better idea is to keep using Google sync on the iPhone (I setup my contacts list for Android 6 months before I actually got the phone using a iPod Touch)

Just use those instructions for syncing and they will show up.
worked great, thank you

Samsung Stratosphere - Phone Works, Screen Dead, Need to retrieve SMS's

Hello
My girlfriend has a Samsung Stratosphere (Verizon) and it was recently dropped from a 2nd story apartment. The screen is completely cracked (doesn't even turn on). The phone, however, still works (can receive calls, as long as the keyboard is slided out). I assume it could make calls as well if I could see the screen.
I'm trying to retrieve SMS's on the phone. To the best of my knowledge, it was not rooted, and usb debugging was not enabled. Is there any way I can retrieve the messages?
When I plug the phone into my computer, I can't even access it as a USB drive (since I can't see/touch the screen to tell it to mount as a disk drive)
Any and all help will be much appreciated

[Q] Water Damage- Trying to Recover Contacts (Only boots to recovery/download)

I have a non rooted Samsung Galaxy SIII on Verizon (now deactivated). Last year the phone was submerged in water for a few seconds. I did the usual wet phone tricks and it worked for about 6 months. Recently it has been randomly restarting until a few days ago when it would not boot up.
When booting, I get to the Samsung logo screen then the phone will shut off. I AM able to boot to recovery and download mode but I cannot turn it on fully. Most of my data has been backed up (photos, videos, app info) but I must have made an error when backing up my contacts on Verizon's backup assistant and I have not backup of them.
I am looking for any way to get my contacts. Any solution I can find online requires that the phone be rooted which it is not and I do not think I can do as it won't turn on. I am not sure if USB debugging is enabled or not.
Any help is very much appreciated.

Maybe i'm stating the obvious but login here www.google.com/contacts and see if your contacts are there.
Or is it possible that you have your contacts stored on your SIM card? Mine are, as even though you can only store basic phone number info per contact, it makes it very easy when switching phones.

Is there any way to remotely change settings on a Galaxy Alpha with a broken LCD?

I have a Galaxy Alpha with a broken screen from a drop. The device seems to be able to boot up, but screen is black so I cant even see anything. Samsung is asking me for 2/3 of what I paid for it, in order to replace the broken screen. Which is a non-starter.
The phone is really only of use to me as a "home" for the Gear app for syncing my Samsung Gear S watch. Unfortunately I had the phone offline and sync was off, at the time I dropped it. I'd rather not buy another phone just as a home for the watch and obviously, I dont want pay for a new screen when the cost is almost price of buying the phone.
Is there anyway for me to turn on the sync remotely or via a host PC? Just so I can turn the sync on and keep being able to use the email on my smartwatch. I have tried the find my phone on Google dashboard but my only option there is to wipe the device or make a call to it, but I cant control any of the settings otherwise.
Any ideas helpful...
