[REQ] broken screen, retrieve photos - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

on my s3 I have twrp and rr rom and the phone is rooted,but adb isn't active
is there a way to retrieve files from it,i know the screen unlock code and all
1.i wonder if there's an app that asks google login and lets you unlock the phone or something like that.
2. or a tool to retrieve all data from the phone then emulate it on pc.
any help would be apreciated

Just plug it into a pc and retrieve it over usb as mass storage. You can see both internal and external storage but if you want ALL the data, including apps etc then nope, you're stuck. Just jet the screen replaced.

[Q] USB Connection

Hi all,
Been searching for a while but i cant seem to find the answer, im trying to make my phone appear on my pc so i can recover some files i accidently deleted, the problem is it will only show up as the storage card, i can get the phones memory to show up but only via active sync, so im just wondering is there a way to make the phones internal memory appear as a removable drive so i can run a recovery program on it?
Cheers

Not that I know of. Can you not run it via active sync?
or maybe vise versa?
When connecting as a mass storage device, the OS on your desktop/laptop takes control of that "removable disc" (can't access it via the phone). Only sd card - external storage can be available. I presume that the inner storage must be maintained by the phone at all times, when turned on.
You can however make a backup or modify files within the inner storage with a file explorer installed on your device (Resco explorer for example). Just make adjustments, to view hidden and system files.
I wouldn't advise you to delete or modify critical system files tho...

[Q]Rescue internal memory without using the screen?

Hi!
this is my firts post here!.
here is my question: accidentially i broke my phone's screen and i need to rescue mi contacts data. is it possible to recover all the internal memory data using a usb cable without using the phone screen??
i'll wait for your answers!! thanks
I doubt you can transfer internal stuffs to USB, not without some app and root, most likely.
Why not use the trackball? Get creative, I'm sure it can be done...somehow.
Maybe can try this. Android Screencast
But there is some limitation if your ROM is not rooted. If you already rooted, you can use mouse/keyboard to control your phone via PC. Steps to perform this can be found in that page.

PS : Root is Required
Install ur phone driver. Or maybe change ur usb cable with shorter one.
You are in the wrong forum you do not have a I9300

Anything on internal memory, if you formatted / wiped the phone - is gone.
Shame! i accidentally forgot to backup a file when formatting my phone earlier.

I recommend searching play for "foldersync" so you can keep your data backed up. I set mine syncing overnight with my computer over wifi.
Cheers!
Well,My problem is very similar I have S3 and does not go past the Samsung logo, however pressing a variation of buttons revels download/root options.I tried many way with no luck, and now I want to buy a data recovery software. So i need a discount coupon to save my money.

Data Recovery on LG G2

Hi,
Well I have this LG G2 and somehow I got it reset, now all the contacts, images, messages, everything is gone. I tried using a recovery software but the thing is the software doesn't recognize my phone as another drive to recover. I have used EaseUS and Recuva but no output. My PC recognizes the phone as a media player not an external storage device. Is there anyway for the PC to recognize it as external storage media so that I can recover data.
Ps: USB Debugging is on
There are programs that will help recover some of the stuff. Dr. Fone is one. It is free to try but paid option to recover, I believe. You won't be able to mount as external, but Dr. Fone will work regardless. There are also some programs that work on the phone such as https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.defianttech.diskdigger&hl=en . All recovery programs will work better if your device is rooted. The ones on the phone typically just look for pictures. Dr. Fone will look for messages and contacts too, if I remember right. Contacts should be linked to their perspective accounts anyway. Google, etc.

Photo and video recovery, please help

Hi, I lost my dog yesterday and have accidently deleted a few videos and lots of photos of our last months together, these were stored on the SD card in my phone. I have a Motorolo G3 running Android 6.0.1.
I have spent most of today downloading various apps to try and get my files back, DiskDigger was the only sucessful one but it was only able to recover thumbnail size pictures. I have tried Recuva which cannot see my SD Card when the phone is connected via USB with the USB file transfer option enabled. Easeus can see the phone but asks that I enable USB mass storage to recover the files, unfortunately I already have this enabled when I see the message.
Would rooting my phone help? From what I can gather I only need to root my phone if the files I want to recover were stored on the phones internal storage, I am mistaken?
Does anyone know how I can recover these files? There are a few very special photos and videos that I desperately want back.
Thanks
No ideas?
