Hello everyone!
I have a small problem that I would like to solve.
I have a Galaxy S3, who has a broken display and then completely unusable.
Now I want to recover the data within it, both from the internal memory to the external one. Most online guides always suggested to enable this blessed "USB debugging", but if the screen is broken, how do I activate it?
So I ask here on the forum, if anyone knows an alternative way to recover the data with broken display (which is not DrFone and companions).
I hope you can help me.
PS: I just found out that it is well locked (by pin or unlock). Therefore even more complicated
PROBLEM SOLVED:
Well folks, since no one responded, I help you!
The problem was solved in a very simple:
Practically we put the screen of another S3, this way of display we could see what we were doing.
Because it was locked with password, after we installed a revocery (CWM or TWRP) and have them mounted the internal memory on the PC (USB Storage Mount), transferred all the data. After we put in Download mode smartphone and a firmware put Odin to remove the block given by password or unlock pattern. Done all this, we then reset the cell as "new", mounted the old screen (the broken), and the end! The everything with simplicity and speed.
I hope to be of help. To ask questions!

Question = Q&A
You are simply not going to be able to do anything if you have not already backed up .
Is your phone rooted with CWM then its possible that a Nandroid backup could be done blind .
jje
can't i do anything with play.google.com ?
is there any chance to do from there ????
or something else can be suggested please ....
please help me ...
but ,why don't you replace the display ,because some time ago i've broken my sgs display ,went to a service replaced , and all my data was untouched.i don't think that replacing the screen (at service)will wipe your data
you can sync your apps and contacts by google account.
Hi everyone,
First I am no expert, but I've been going through all possible forums for a solution to my problem with no easy solution. I've cracked my screen on my Samsung SII i9100 (current firmware version: I9100JPKG2/I9100OJPKG1/I9100XXKF1/I9100JPKG2 DBT). I have replaced the Firmware once a year ago through Odin as I needed to access different languages no available on the original firmware. I think it is not rooted! If it is then it wasn't intentional . Now I am trying to send it for repair. The phone still connects to USB and Kies and through it I managed to delete all contacts, pictures and media. I accessed the internal memory and cleaned up all folders I previously placed on it, but didn't have the guts to go further through what looked like system or application folders.
Now I need to wipe all the account data, memos, and applications. Since I have no visibility, I tried a hardware factory reset like 5 times but it never worked, I've confirmed that. Read a couple of times about something called "adb" and how I maybe can wipe such data through it, or maybe use my computer monitor as a screen! Despite a whole day of reading and downloading and trying stuff, didn't manage to get it right.
If anybody has a solution for this problem, please don't spare on details, flying blind is difficult
Thanks in advance
hello,
I couldn't find any other forum to discuss about this version of Huawei mobile phone. I really need help since the last legitimate EMU update ruined the whole system and now my new mobile phone that I have never had a chance to use it is like a trash device... I hope someone here can help me to recover it since i tried all ways I found on internet.
I bought this mobile from China and bring it to Europe. Since I wanted to remove some chinese default software (that wasn't basic software but really annoying), I used an app and rooted the mobile phone. so I removed some of chinese stuff and installed some of good software. Everything worked fine and I tested skype and I had high resolution picture with 8 Mega pixel camera. I tested all its functionality and it was really good...
I noticed that there is a new legitimate update for this OS, since I still didn't have any sd memory, I couldn't have a backup of this old system and this was a big mistake...
anyway... I let it do the legitimate update for EMU... but immediately after reboot, I noticed that Camera and bluetooth are out of functions... so I first thought the problem is with bluetooth configuration but I was wrong since the internal memory was read only and no longer available.
I formatted the internal memory via computer (the part which was available) but no luck... I bought a sd card and changed the storage from internal to external but this didn't help to function bluetooth and camera...
I had a back up from /system/apps and then removed manually the bluetooth.apk and also its odex file. then restarted the system, clear dev cache and tried to install bluetooth.apk again. but I received error message and couldnt' do that. so again I copied those file back to its location.
So bluetooth turns on now, can send signal but for receiving or sending file, it fails, It can also pairs with other device.. So I thought it should be something related to permissions. I again checked the bluetooth permissioin on /etc/permissions/platform.xml and notice they are ok.
I changed the permission of storage and added the external storage to the list and added group storage_rw.
but this also didn't solve the problem with camera and bluetooth.
several times reset to factory mode didn't solve the problem...
I tried to hack the bootloader but I could not unlock it... I sent all information to [email protected] and asked them to send me bootloader password and provide them with all detail information about the device and accepted that the device is out of warrant but I received no response...
I installed "safe system remover apps" and after having backup of Gallery2.apk, I uninstalled it (it is related to camera and all gallery information)... but with no luck I could install it again...
So, I am really hopeless now since I don't know whatelse I can to do... the system doesn't functioning and I need to load on it the custom ROM but the device only can go to fastboot and cannot load the recovery mode anymore and factory reset from the UI is only reset the mobile to fastboot without doing anything else.
I tried to run the factorymode.sh from the device but I receive error messages to access some files such as bluetooth parameters/power
I couldn't myself find this file on the directory that it looks for.
I would really appreciate it if you can tell me any way that I can unlock the bootloader from the device (because outside of the device I tried different applications but with no luck...)
I have a cutom ROM for G630-U20 (not exact version for this device but almost similar) and if I can have a bootloader password I can try this one or any other customized ROM.
I would appreciate any way that you can show me to solve the problem.... either by changing permissions to solve this problem.
Thank you.
Hello everyone,
I'm having a bit of a problem. I have an Elephone p6000 pro and a few days ago it keeps asking me about a privacy protection password. I have tried all possible combinations I would use for a password. None seem to work. So I googled and found you it is possible to reflash the rom on the phone. Small problem: my usb port is buggy. So it won't connect to the pc! My only (possible) solution would be to put a file or so on my sd card through an external adapter.
So if anyone could help me: is it possible to reset the firmware through the sd card? My phone is not rooted unfortunally and I have the Android system recovery 3e on my device. Sorry for my poor English and lack of knowledge. But I'm clueless about what to do at the moment.... Thanks in advance
Hi to everyone
I have an issue and would appreciate if anyone can help me.
So I have lock pattern on my phone and have fingerprint for unlocking. I restarted phone and then it asked me to enter lock pattern to unlock it. Which I forgot.
As my knowledge is 0, I didn't set up anything to help unlocking like safe location, find my device or any of those options.
I've been reading a lot how to unlock phone without deleting data, found one app which would work with USB connection to my laptop, but I didn't set that up previously on my phone.
I really need to unlock phone so I can save pictures, contacts and messages. Especially because I was on vacation when this happened and I was so smart not to do back up since March last year.
Now I was reading also about some Aroma File Manager, but when I enter into recovery mode I am not sure what to do. I downloaded app on another phone, stored it to SD card and put that card into my locked phone. And this is what I get when I go to recovery mode:
Reboot system now
Reboot to bootloader
Apply update from ADB
Apply update from SD card
Wipe data/factory reser
Wipe cache partition
Mount/system
View recovery logs
Run graphic test
Run locale test
Power off
If anyone knows how to save pictures and messages from locked phone please help me.
I had to buy new phone because I really want to save those photos, some of them mean a lot to me.
I learned hard way so on this new phone I put every possible option for unlocking that I could find.
But I hope that there is solution for this too..:crying:
And I apologize if something is not written correct, English is not my native language.
