I shattered my screen. I am thinking of having my phone replaced, but i need to get some very important texts and number off the phone. ones that I don't have saved elsewhere. Is there a way to retrieve those from the phone using file explorer? What about my call logs?
thanks in advance

Look for a software called "mymobiler" and access your phone through the PC.
i cannot seem to get mymobiler to recognize and connect to my phone. am i missing something?

Howdy folks,
This isn't smartphone question, but many people here seem to be very smart and I'm hoping that someone can help. Here's my situation: A coworker has a pending legal matter with a ex-significant other. Part of the evidence includes text messages that were sent to her. However, her old phone has since "broken." The only key that works is the red button. It powers on, powers off, but will do nothing else.
This is a Nokia phone, I'm not sure the model number but relatively recent. My question: Where are the text messages stored? I pulled the SD card and there's nothing on it. I can plug in the phone to a USB port on my computer, but all the folders that I can access via that method are just songs or vids she loaded. Are the messages stored on the SIM? Would putting the sim into a new phone allow us to access those messages? Or is this something that she needs to subpoena the service provider to get? I'm very un-knowledgeable on this to any help you can give would be appreciated.
Again, sorry to ask an off topic question, but I do hope someone can help.
text messages are usually stored either on the phone's internal chip (default) or the sim card. The best way in my opinion is somehow "remotely control" the phone (my mobiler has a similar function for windows mobile), or swap the hardware of an identical phone so you can get the phone working (dangerous)
Thanks Danni... I'm not sure of any software like "MyMobiler" for non-smartphones though.
Cracked my screen, I see I can buy a new screen easy enough and replace it. The problem is I don't know if anything else is broke, I ask because now my phone doesn't recieve calls, it just goes straight to voice mail. But it still seems to work when I plug it into my computer, It recognizes it and I can use the side loader to install apps on it.
Is there anyway I can make a call from my computer through it to see if it is still working, or is there a way to emulate the screen on my computer.
Or any other suggestions on how I could check other fuctions of the phone to see if I just need to replace the screen?
never mind, just figured it out, I just had to search other forums.

That program is awesome! And my phone wasnt recieving calls because it entered airplane mode somehow!
one of my most used apps is the Fuellog pro.
long story short, my xperia z`s screen cracked and rendered the phone useless. it turns on and everything, but i cannot interface with it due to the digitizer is broken..
the bad thing besides the phone going to **** is that I had some Fuellog data on it that i would love to get out or at least take a look at so i could transfer them to my new phone..
does anybody know where fuellog saves the data? i can connect the phone to my computer and access the filesystem, but i cannot find any obvious places where the fuellog data is located.. hoped i could just copy/paste the folder and export the data that way since i cant access it otherwise..
im open to any ideas, no matter how crazy...
tried to mail the dev twice, but no luck..
I am very computer illiterate so I am hoping someone can help me here! My friend has a Galaxy A01 with a broken screen and he needs his contacts off of it. He didn't have it backed up in google or anything. I have his broken phone here. CAnt I just connect his phone to my computer and somehow retrieve his contacts off of it? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

No, you have to be able to unlock the screen in order for PC to connect to the device. Your screen is broken which means you can't unlock the screen. If they did not have anything backed up to Google then I'm pretty sure they also did not have USB debugging enabled. Between the screen being broken and USB debugging not being enabled, you are pretty much screwed with no way to retrieve anything from the device.
This is what happens when one takes things for granted or never considers that things can easily go wrong and overlooks the necessity of backing up important data to avoid the situation they are currently in.
Accept your losses and consider it a learning experience. In the future, make certain to back up important data.
Hi, do you mean your computer can detect your friend's phone via USB cable? If yes, try Coolmuster Android Backup Manager. Its free backup function can help you access to contacts on the phone and export them to the computer via USB cable. It's easy and safe. You just need to enable USB debugging on the phone. About the details, please search online. Hope this will be your help.
You may not able to get back contacts if you don't have a backup on Google. You can check the local backup. If you have taken local backup then, you can bring back his contacts.
