Hello, my problem is based on a Galaxy S5 which I owned, 2 days ago I fell to the ground and the screen went black because I broke the display, i can´t see anything. I am going to change my cell phone but before doing it I wanted to copy the data, i connect my cell phone via usb to my pc and it turns out to be like "multimedia device", and having the black screen I can´t change anything, I tried things like "see your android on pc" but I have desactivated usb depuration, I really don´t know how to fix the problem, Thanks ♥.

Background:
my friend has a pantech burst (p9070 at&t) that fell and the screen broke, got it replaced fell again and screen broke again
(Broken meaning no touch no image, its black!)
If i connect it to a pc (when its off (I can't tell when its on or off)) it vibrates and pc recognizes that's it's a pantech android device..
But here is the tricky part, its running ics and usb storage has to be enabled each time its connected to pc. I don't know if the phone has a passcode (if it does I can guess it)
He is not interested in paying for a new screen as its not worth it...
So....
I told my freind that with android you can do anything, and if the files are on the internal storage then it can come off.. My question is, is there a way to have this phone display on my pc (don't have internet on it, usb debugging probably disabled) or with a command line have the phone mount as usb or mtp so I can get the files off??
(I know its possible!!)

My smartphone took a bit of sea water on the screen, since then the touchscreen stopped working. The phone connects, i can acess the menu, use the physical buttons but the touch isn't working at all. Already opened and tried to see if it had any water inside but doesn't seem to have anything. It's a Meizu MX5, should i buy a new screen or it's possible to recover?
I can connected to charge it, but i had the option "only charge" on android so when i connect to pc i can't acess the phone, is there a way to acess to data? I have a lot of photos i would like to recover! Thank you.
Hey guys and gals, so my brother has broken his S7, the LCD and touch are gone, the phone still turns on and it can connect through usb no problem for backing up music and photos, but he needs his contacts, sms and call logs, something usually done with superbackup or similar apps, but obviously they aren't available,
I've tried the official Samsung apps like smart-switch, but they require me to click yes to a pop up on the screen which I obviously cant do, my idea was to use a USB OTG cable with a usb hub, plug in a mouse and use a home made USB A to USB A cable to connect it to the pc at the same time and click randomly to hopefully hit yes, but frankly that sounds so stupid and doesn't seem likely to work (but I will try it if I have no other option)
my next idea was to use one of the many data recovery apps, however despite what almost every page states, none of them support the S7, just the S6 and lower and a few of the tab and note devices, so at this point im out of ideas, the phone doesnt have Root or usb debugging enabled so no hopes of ADB or anything,
any ideas here?
Thanks guys!
Use SydeSync or app like visor (Chrome add-on) to cast your phone screen to PC.
If you needed to install these apps to your mobile phone, you can install them via google play store on PC.
When you connect your mobile phone to internet, it will automatically be installed to your mobile phone.
Then you can cast your screen to your PC.
Sorry, I did not read the last sentence you wrote "No USB Debugging enabled".
Sorry...
Seen this asked quite a few times, doesn't seem like many solutions, basically if it's deadly important, fix the screen
Contacts should be on contacts.google.com
SOLVED: S7 dropped > broken screen > how to recover images? Not rooted,not "usb mode"
So my wife dropped S7 to the floor and device ended up to be fully powered, but screen is now all black. Back and "software" button illuminates. I can change volume. I can take photos. So phone works, but screen is all black. Main concern is to have photos out from the phone. Contacts are synced, software etc. can be installed to new phone.
Kies finds the phone, but says that is' locked. Although phone does not have any passcodes or fingerprint, Kies cannot access to photos. Also the PC does see the device, but it won't allow me to see the contents. Find My Mobile is not activated, I think that I can't activate it now without phone. Also Smart Switch says that phone is locked. Phone settings are pretty much as out from the box. USB debugging is off, Developper options off, etc...
But I found that possible via ABD (?) I could access phone storage. Is it so? I sould start the phone to Recovery Mode / Download Mode? How to do that? Normally the phone is on and I can't switch it off. I can only soft reset is by keeping vol- + power buttons pressed for 10sec. But after that, phone just restarts to OS.
Please give hints how to proceed. What to try. New LCD is around 50USD and takes forever to get from Aliexpress/Ebay.
Why not use an external display? Hook it up to the USB-connector via an adaptor and it should work to unlock the phone using a PC-mouse.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
O, it has such feature? Quick googling did not help how to do it. How does it work? Do I need some cable or device?
Any ideas how to proceed? I either can reboot device to Recovery mode and use ADB or connect external display to the device. Or if someone has any better solution
Please help. Family photos are in the phone
Try to unlock your lock screen with a usb mouse connected via otg and swiping up with the mouse. Then connect it to the computer and try to backup your data with kies or switch.
Tried many thing how to allow the connection from another phone or computer. However it was not possible to connect, so I ordered a new screen. Once new screen installed, it was not even a challenge Ordered new screen from Aliexpress.
Hi I am struggling to get data off my old galaxy S9, I have the 2 phones connected via USB but cannot authorise the old phone to transfer data, the screen is FUBAR and as such cannot press" allow" I think that presently the USB mode seems to be charging only, can anyone help? thanks
Use ABD and it comes with the the android SDK from google. But it requires a couple of your phones internal software switches to be set in order to access your phone via the USB interface. If you have not already set these switches before the screen got broken you may be out of luck.
