Redmi 5 Plus locked - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 / 5 Plus Questions & Answers

Hi everyone. I have this redmi 5 plus phone from a friend, which they gave to a kid as a toy. The situation right now with the device is that the kid locked the screen with a PIN somehow, and even if she could figure out the password she set, she also shattered the screen and 90% of touchscreen is not responsive atm. There are some photos from the wedding to be copied to a new phone, so I was wondering what are the chances with this issue? Things we need are photos and if possible stored contacts and that's it. Can't figure what version of firmware it is though, as half of the screen doesn't work. The recovery is stock as well
Thanks in advance for any help.

Is usb debugging enable then maybe. But normally nobody have it on, sorry. No recovery.

[Q] Q! Touchscreen Issues Inside OS

Hey guys, this is my first post on XDA as I'm usually lurking or keeping up with updates. I've searched many forums for an answer to my problem but it does not seem that anyone has had the same issue.
Anyway, lately I've run into the problem of an unresponsive touchscreen. I can't even unlock my phone! Two nights ago I made three consecutive calls and about ten minutes later I couldn't unlock my phone.
In order to correct this problem, I first took off the screen protector to no avail. I was running CM7, flashed a sense ROM, flashed my backup of the stock ROM, went back to stock with S-ON, pulled the battery a bunch of times, completely wiped, removed the SD card, Soft & hard reset at a VZW store. Nothing.
Took it with me to school today, powered it on and before it completely loaded I was able to unlock it by chance, skipped the setup and it was working fine all day. I was hella overjoyed... until it did it again tonight. D: I so want it to be OS issues rather than hardware because I don't want to wait two days to get a 'reconditioned' TB from VZW.
HALP! Please? Thanks, guys for even looking!

P.S. I do apologize if I did not follow proper procedure to post or posted in the wrong subforum. S:
I'm frustrated and sitting around with an unrooted TB, ohnoes. (Although the screen looks sexy as hell without a screen protector.)

Click to expand...

sounds like it could be a digitizer(hardware related) issue. on the plus side, you can pickup a new digitizer pretty cheap... downside though is you'd have to open up the phone to replace it. it's not that hard to do and there's videos online showing you how to.. you'd just have to be comfortable i suppose.
i'd just fix it rather then going the refurbished route considering that god know's what was wrong with it before it became "refurbished" not to mention you have no idea how much use the phone had been put through and how much life it has left.

Is there any way to get data from this phone I got?

So i got this situation going on, I hope someone here can help me.
My mom recently passed away. She owned a Huawei Mate 10 Pro and we want to get all the pictures from that phone. The problem is, that the screen is locked with a PIN and we have no idea what the PIN is. (We already tried everything that made sense to us)
Does someone here have any idea if it's still possible to get the data from this phone, and how I can do that?
Thanks in advance!

Recovering Photos From Samsung Note 5 of passed friend

Hey everyone,
Coming here in hopes that the rooting community can offer some help and assistance. I had a close friend pass away last week and was provided his old Note 5 to see if any pictures could be recovered from the phone. This is his old phone from roughly 2 year ago. When I was given the phone the screen would not turn on and I think the phone was stuck in a boot loop as it would vibrate roughly every 10 seconds. I swapped the screen on the phone and was able to get it to boot. The phone now boots up but goes to the Google FRP saying the phone was reset and to access the phone we gotta used the previously synced account. Unfortunately we are not able to get into his Google account. We are unsure if the phone reset itself or if it was reset previously.
Its my understanding that when a phone resets it does not erase all the data but marks it for overwrite? Was wondering if anyone had any advice on how I should proceed and what would be my best bet to see if we can recover any photos that may still be on the phone.
Thank you,
Bump.

Broken Phone help.

Good evening everyone, i am here to request a help about my broken android phone screen to try and figure out how to fix the problem i'm facing, lets go from the start, i have a Samsung galaxy grand 2 (Sm-G7102) which had a really buggy touch, i could barely use the phone due to the cracked screen so one day i got really triggered and tried to take the first layer of the screen off but i ended up taking it all off with the one under it disconnecting the whole display (the thin cable that was connected to the screen got pulled off) now i'm only left with (idk what to call it) the last layer of the screen which is only a clear display but it doesn't respond to my touches anymore, and its locked with a pin lock so there's no way in hell i'm gonna be able to recover my files off of it, i tried everything like screen mirroring and a program which can remove a screen lock but sadly this Grand 2 is hardly supported by anything, and therefor its not gonna work i also tried using some ADB solutions but it wouldn't work, now idk if its me who's an amateur and couldn't use it or if my usb debugging is on, idk even know if my usb debugging is on but i'm sure its not. i don't know what kind of way to try. also my phone have been through a lot, Before the screen stopped working i had a custom recovery and i was curious and did something like ''wipe system'' which took my whole system off (including the custom recovery) cause i wanted to flash my phone to kitkat, so instead when i lost my whole system i downloaded Samsung Mega kitkat firmware and installed it directly to the phone using Odin. and it worked like a charm. Phone is also connected to wifi, connected to 2 of my google accounts, and that's all. Now my questions are:
First: I saw that my grand 2 is not supported by an OTG adapters which was my only hope but it supports the Mega and i have already mentioned that i flashed a Mega kitkat firmware into my Grand 2 does that mean it would work??
2: Second if an adapter doesn't work is there any hope to control my phone with an ADB or any other way?? or at least just to recover my files (It includes very important pictures that i don't want to lose).
Thank you all in advance.

update an old phone

Hi
Last night i found my old LG optimus 3d p920, the device was working back in the days, but after charging the battery i remembered the old issue, which is the touch not working in the most of screen, and that's why i throw it back in 2013.
I couldn't do any thing except some clicks on some area on screen, but other stuff its not clickable..
I searched a lot on google and xda about that issue and they said its software issue, android on that time makes this and you have to update.
The problem is i cant go to the menu, or even contact it to the pc because its ask me to turn on storage and i cant click on it..
Is there anyway to update the phone to the latest ver of android for this model ? or is there any possible way to contact it to the pc without asking for turn on storage?
please advice, and thank you in advance.
If touch screen only partially working then it could be a loose connection.
In no case it has something to do with installed Android OS itself, IMHO.
