Samsung Jet Icon S8003 Touchscreen Issues

So I have a Jet Icon here that has a touch screen malfunction here. Nothing but the actual buttons are working, however the screen does detect my touch as it vibrates whenever I do so. I'm trying to find a way to transfer pictures that I really need to retrieve, so doing a factory reset/system restore is out of the question. Is there any way for me to get the pictures onto my PC? I've plugged in the USB cable to my laptop but it tells me to disable bluetooth which I can't do thanks to this shotty screen. Hopefully there is a way for me to change settings before I go off to the store and request a repair.
Thanks

Do you have and sd card in the phone? You could take it out, but besides that, I think the only way to do it is a wipe.

[Q] Nexus 4 screen destroyed, pattern lock, need to pull data off

Hey everyone here's the dilemma:
I dropped my Nexus 4 on my gravel driveway at four in the morning and then proceeded to back over it with my dump truck... The screen is completely destroyed, the glass, the display behind it, amazingly the back glass didn't break but that's neither here nor there. The phone still works, notification light is blinking, bluetooth connects to my car stereo right away and plays what is in the playlist, alarm goes off at 3am but the only way to get it to stop is by doing a hard reset (power button for 10 sec). When I connect it to my computer it shows up no problem but since I have a pattern lock obviously nothing is visible. I would like to retrieve some pictures, files, etc. How can I do this?

Try this to remove your pattern :thumbup:

Replaced screen, not booting

Hey guys,
just replaced my screen by myself and it isn't working. It boots and the screen lights up for a few seconds but thats it. So it seems like I ****ed up somewhere. :/
Now I've got some questions for you guys.
1. What could cause this error? Since it's already not working I don't mind taking it apart some more and trying to fix it.
2. Do you think if I send it to the support from OnePlus they will take a look at it?
3. The whole reason I did this was to get my data back. Is there any way to access the data on the phone without the touchscreen? I encrypted it using CynogenMod. USB-Debugging is enabled.
Thank you so much guys, I'd really appreciate some help. This **** is really tearing me down since it was a lot of work.

I did this on my own phone but Idk about OPO. If you use the power+voldown method to boot into recovery (yes ik nothing on screen) then connect a usb and see what happens
If you power it on, wait 5 mins then call it and if the phone rings you should be able to rule out the display and speakers and storage, obvs if the display is still not on at this point it is probably the display.
you can also adb from recovery and or fastboot so you should be able to see it in there if it is still working (make sure you change the phone for a decent amount of hours before you do any of these) If the display is dead its likely its been on for the last day and dead

Sorry for the late answer, really appreciate your help!
So if I connect the phone to the PC (tried it in recovery and in normal mode) windows detects the phone under "Devices" but sadly if I type in "adb devices" in cmd it doesn't detect the device.
But still, windows is detecting the phone so it seems to still function. I booted into recovery and I could use the touscreen and the lower buttons. I couldn't see anything but it was vibrating whenever I was using the touscreen. So it seems like only the display part is broken.
Can't call the phone since it's fully encrypted so I need to type in a password before booting anything (recovery, normal mode, ...)
I'll try to contact the vendor of the display and see what he has to say.
If anyone got any more tips I'd appreciate them. I'm a pretty big noob so I even appreciate "common sense" tips.

I know this may be a "common sense" thing to say, but double check your connections. Sometimes the connectors aren't made properly and a pin could be covered so you can try connecting and disconnecting several times to see if it clears up.
Since the touch screen was registering and vibrating, then it could be the backlight that's broken. Try holding a flashlight at an angle and see if you can make out anything on screen. If it's the backlight, then you can probably back up your data in case your phone does end up breaking.

reconnected everything multiple times and also tried the flashlight trick. sadly with both no luck
but something good:
adb recognizes my phone in "recovery"
bad news: no commands work, most likely because the phone is encrypted. if I enter a command nothing happens, it looks like its loading forever.
any ideas?

Hey!
I also had the same problem after I replaced OPO's screen about one year ago. The replacement screen was from ebay.
I could see the Cyanogen logo but after a few seconds the screen became black. Booting into recovery mode worked well.
On the video also ROM boots well but the screen stays black.

Eventually, the screen was defective and I returned it and bought new one.

HELP: I need to recover my data! USB Debugging on, No screen lock yet nothing works

Hello, I appologize if this is not the right place to post this in.
Now, My xperia Z3 has had a very hard time... with 3 bodge wires running thorugh it, and eventually a faulty screen (Sometimes it would turn off, sometimes half off, sometimes colors get inverted) which lead to it getting cracked by my thumb(!) and then to me accidentally shorting out the backlight....
When the screen cracked and was partially broken, i connected an otg mouse and removed the lock screen. I also made sure USB debugging was on. so i should be good and dandy right?
The computer recognizes it but nothing shows up. i know that it automatically sets itself to charge only...
I try to use visor, which works perfectly on my new phone, but it tells me that the phone doesnt have USB debugging on, I know for a fact that the phone is displaying a prompt telling me if I want to allow the computer, the RSI fingerprint and all.....
Phone is stock, no recovery. i have no experience with ADB commands but open for experimentation. all I want is the whatsapp media folder. Thank you!

I appologize for the bad original title. I hope someone can help me now?

Sony Xperia Z5 display not working after submerged in water

Hi, I need some help with my Xperia Z5 single sim phone. I used my Xperia for under water photography. It was working fine for sometime but later it started behaving abnormal. It gave me message to insert headphones and random screen touch and apps opening and closing. Looking at such behavior I stopped inserting the phone in water. It restarted 1/2 times and later on I switched off the phone. When I removed the sim tray I observed that there were water droplets on the sim and memory card. I dried the phone by keeping it under bulb light, all the water vapor under the back and front camera disappeared. When I turned on the phone the display didn't turn on but I was able to feel the phone vibrating when I touched the finger print sensor, was able to hear charging sounds and the camera worked flash light turned on when the camera button was pressed. When I connect the phone to computer the phone is detected but i cant backup any data as the phone was pin+finger print protected. I tried to repair the phone through Sony Companion but nothing worked. I even tried using vysor Chrome extension to mirror my phone to my computer but the app failed to detect the phone.
Is there a possible way to recover the data by somehow unlocking the device?
Is there a way to repair the phone through flashing or need to show the device to Sony Mobile service center?
Would appreciate if any help provided.
Thanks in advance...

Waterproofing has long been a key selling point of the Xperia line, and the Z5 has the highest possible IP68 rating for water and dust resistance. That means it's been tested by being immersed in fresh water for 30 minutes in depths of up to 1.5 metres.
However, the language used on Sony's website has changed: "The IP rating of your device was achieved in laboratory conditions in standby mode, so you should not use the device underwater," the new policy says.
