Hello, I am looking for help from experts and I hope you will be able to help me.
My phone has fallen and the display is not responding at all. When I turn it on, the phone vibrates and charges (the computer detects it), but the screen is all black. Having a black screen, I cannot enter the unlock code and switch it to mass storage mode.
What I have to do is recover documents, photos and contacts from this phone, but I cannot do it via my computer.
My question is, is it possible to force the computer into mass storage mode on the phone with some probgram.
Do you know any way to recover data?
I will add that I do not want to replace the screen because it is too expensive for me.
Thanks a lot for any help.

If phone can successfully get accessed via ADB you can pull out all desired data files to your Windows PC.
Of course in your phone USB debugging must got enabled previously

This is where the problem is that I don't have USB debugging enabled.
Of course, I will try your method and will be happy to share my thoughts.
Or maybe an idea of using recovery? I already lack ideas, when I come back from work I will see what I can get from ADB.
Unfortunately, I don't have debugging on my phone and ADB doesn't work: /
Do you have any other ideas? Maybe with the use of Odin?
No.
BTW: ODIN is Samsung's user-friendly implementation of Fastboot.

I have a Xolo Q700 and I broke it. The screen is cracked and I can't type my password.
By default, USB Charging mode is on ... so no use connecting it to my pc. I also tried rebooting but the USB charge stays default.
How do I control my phone now coz the OS is working fine. I cannot login.
All my data is in phone memory. How do I atleast get that data ?

Hello everyone,
I deleted some of the bloatware my Lenovo A850i came with, and after thatit rebooted and got stuck at the logo screen. It animates and all, and then doesn't move forward.
If I press power+volume down, it says meta mode but doesn't really do anything as far as I can tell.
Power+volume up brings up a chinese factory mode where I could wipe the whole thing (which I'd rather avoid). When I first entered this mode while connected to my PC, the PC installed the phone's driver, since then, nothing.
Power+both volumes brings me to an android screen where I could also wipe the phone, or install an update from the phone.
If I simply power up the phone and connect it to the PC, I can see a Lenovo Suite install drive, and the two internal drives my phone has, but they are vague and unopenable. It says that I should inster a disc.
I have tons of pictures on the phone, and tons of contacts that for some reason I saved on the phone itself, bad mistake. So I would like to download the internal data before wiping the thing.
Please help!
Update:
If I take the battery out and connect the phone to the PC, I can hear a quick hardware recognition sound, then immeditely the harware disconnected sound. If I watch the Device Manager, I can see a port appear and disappear.

Hi guys. My LG G5 just stopped working few days ago. When i turn it on the half of the screen is black. I went to the nearest service and they said they cant fix it.
The problem is that I have some photos in internal storage and I would like to transfer them . Does anyone know any way to transfer photos?
P.S. Do you have any idea is it motherboard or display ?

Hi
Lgg4 and lgg5 have haf significant issues with display screen...half snowy other side fine or half black etc. Its a known issue.
With out display interface Im not certain if usb file transfer will work to your pc but try it. If you can access phone storage through pc perhaps you have a chance.
Im heding the screen may not display all but when you hook your power cord between phone and pc an automatic prompt will rise on your phone. Usually it defaults to charging only selection. Hit screen half way down even though it cant fully be seen to hopefully activate file transfer mode. Its possible touch works on svreen side displaying.
Or if ur lucky itll be default.
Worth a try.
I am guessing you dont have cloud storage and you didnt back up photos to scard so usb link is perhaps your only shot.
Good luck.
have you tried with adb pull command ?

I have done this many times through Unity for Android development. This phone is the latest to my collection for connection. I had to turn off Dev mode to get the usb menu back.
I turned Dev mode back on and still the pc doesnt show this phone.
Any ideas?
TIA.
Reinstall the Google USB drivers, then try again?

I did. It seems to be the phone. I get the connection menu on the phone and select tethering but the PC nevers sees the pone in ADB devices. I am not sure what to do at this point.

Bump.
What system are you plugging into, Windows/Linux?
Further, what adb package are you using? We've seen issues with minimal adb, so you might get the newest platform-tools and try again.

As a Win10 Unity to Android and Oculus developer I solved an ADB issue in the past where there were two different versions running.
Unity had its own compared to Android Studio.
This time its different. I am going right into ADB to the phone. The phone says its tethered but the PC version reports no devices.
I did go through Android Studio to install the Google USB drvier.
Sorry my bad! I found the usb debugging option turned off. I switched it on.
I am now back in business.
Thank you all for the comments.
Hello!
I got my mom's phone because it got stuck on the boot screen (honor Powered by android). She was out in the cold for a while, and when she tried to use her smartphone, it had shut down. As she tried to restart it, it got stuck on the boot screen. So she gave it to me hoping to at least get some important data back. I fixed some bricked phones in the past, but this one seems impossible to fix.
I got fastboot working, but the recovery doesn't seem to start no matter how I press PWR and Vol+. Also fastboot reboot recovery gets me no further than a reboot to the boot screen. Since the FRP is locked, I can't flash a recovery image.
The fastboot screen suggest to open HiSuite. But on my Mac it does require HDB to be active. However the windows version aknowledges that a device can do something via fastboot.
But my win10 machine is unable to properly recognize the usb device. Installing USB drivers seems not to help, even manual install in the device manager fails with driver signature disabled. Also a registry fix from this website seems not to help. In the end, I can't get fastboot to work in the commandline nor HiSuite.
At this point I'm out of Ideas. As it stands now, the only way to recover the data is by unsoldering the eMMC .
There are ways to unlock the bootloader, but as far as I know, it requires wiping the storage.
I'm not sure what happened to the phone outside, but it's really strange that there is no recovery available.
Does anyone have ideas on how to proceed?
