[CLOSED] Question: How to retrieve internal data from black screen - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

Hi XDAers ... I have a challenge.
Huawei mate 20X fell.
Screen broke, as in black.
Phone turns on and can get into recovery, but nothing more.
Unsure if it is sitting and waiting for my unlock code (tried it on the black screen a few times wout success), or what it's doing.
The output over hdmi is also black (but this is most likely due to not being able to select the correct mode when usb connected.
Does anyone here have any ideas on how I can extract the data (internal - no sd card) from the phone ?
My computer recognizes a usb connection, HiSuite also recognized a Huawei connection, but says the device not connected.
RPi also sees a usb device, but nothing can be mounted (suspect again need to allow this on the phone screen).
Any ideas ?
Thx
Iyah.

[Q] OnePlus One USB and OTG storage issue and TWRP

After a few weeks since I got my OnePlus, I'm having a strange problem. Whenever I try to copy any sort of data to/from the phone, a few seconds after task has been started I get this error
"Cannot copy file.xxx
The device has either stopped responding or has been disconnected"
Also, the OTG storage devices get unmounted randomly and notification pops up
"USB storage unexpectedly removed"
I reached the concusion (like most of you would) that maybe USB port is malfunctioning.
But here is the twist:
If I connect my phone in MTP mode while in TWRP, the copying/pasting just occurs successfully each time. Even if I mount OTG in TWRP, USB storage works as it should without any issues.
I've already tried:
-changing different ROMs (PA, CM)
-flashing stock kernel, recovery and rom
-using different USB cables
-using different PC
-changing in between MTP and PTP
-copying directly to root, folders and sub-folders
But each time, the copying and OTG storage fails while booted into OS but works normally while using TWRP
[BTW I created accidentally created a duplicate thread in development section which I can't remove]

Hello friends,
I have seen many people's reporting issues with oneplus one OTG/USB connection.
Sometimes it works for few minutes and then disconnects. But it works fine in trwrp mode.
I too have same problem and have tried various methods to resolve the issue,
One of the solution i tried is flashing cm12 nightly..but the issue resurface very often.
The work around i found is " To disable the mobile data connection and then connect the OTG.
It should resolve your OTG problem, meanwhile developers provides some concrete solution.

[Completed] CUBOT X6 dead screen, no USB debug enabled, Stock ROM, no root

Hi there.
I got my hands on this CUBOT X6 with broken screen. I can see the screen just fine BUT can't operate it from its bottom half approximately.
I would like to use this Android phone as a security camera to watch my garage, but without control, I'm stuck
What I'm trying to achieve here is to:
a) start up the phone and load a security app to it
b) control the phone via some "Android Control"-like app (without using the phone's broken screen)
c) set it up as a security camera and let it take pictures for me
Can anyone pls point me to some links here on the forum to solve my below listed problems ? ( and YES I've spend searching and reading this and few other forums for the last few hours and found just what is listed below)
So....
1. The phone was locked with swipe password with the posibility to control only the top three dots, the other ones are dead, NO USB Debugging available, Phone was set to CHARGE ONLY mode when connected to PC via USB - I managed to download stock ROM and Flashed it but....
2. It asks for a few details and requires you to click NEXT which is in the botom of the screen which is touch-dead. So i have searched and found this tread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2786395 But....
3. The phone is STOCK rom with absolutely no settings = no USB Debugging enabled and I do not know how to "modify the default.prop" http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...9&postcount=17 when the screen is dead and no usb debuging is enabled = Can't access the file system (or can I ? )
4. The phone is not detected by the Android Control app at all.
5. The recovery is in Chineese ! I tried translating it via Google Translate via pictures, but that did not shows/offers me the option for entering the command prompt (as advised in tread mentioned in point 3)
I'm too lame in this Android/Linux based sea, so if anyone is willing to help me here (if you think its possible to achive my goals a-c) please give me some step by step guide how to do that. (links to treads would be enough)
Thanks a lot !

Hello and thank you for using XDA Assist.
We cannot provide technical support nor can other members reply to your posts here on XDA Assist and there is no forum specifically for the Cubot devices at this time but I see that you have already posted an identical message in the General Forum at http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2728355 which is a reasonable place to start where members familiar with your device might be able to advise you. I also see a number of references to your model from a site search at http://forum.xda-developers.com/sitesearch.php?q=cubot x6 which might be worth reviewing. Since your device is relatively uncommon, please be patient and give the experts there plenty of time to respond.
Good luck!

[Completed] Recover data of Zif Tablet with damaged touchscreen

Hello.
I hope someone can provide guidance with this problem.
First info about the problem:
1) Manfacturer: Zif
2) Model T722G
3) Android version: N/A
Problem description: The touchscreen is completely black an unresponsible after the tablet got water inside of it, already opened by some amateur so I don´t think it can be fixed.
Goal: Try to save the contents of the internal memory of the device (if possible), pictures, music, videos.
When the devices is plugged to PC it shows some activity, on the device manager, the device is recognized as Linux File-CD Gadget USB device, however no storage device is detected.
Additional details: Sometimes when connected it also shows MT6577 VCOM device for a brief period of time.
A couple of times it appeared as storage device (with a sort of camera logo I forgot the exact name) and two unit letters appeared on the storage manager, but it didn´t show on the file explorer. I tried a recomendation of uninstalling the driver, but then it never appeared again.
Any help would be appreciated.

[Completed] Garmin usb mass storage not detetced

Hi
Can anyone please enlighten me on how to fix my Garmin 660 GPS
My issue started when I plugged the unit into the computer to perform a routine map update
I had been having some issues with a few of the media files that I play so I thought I would replace the MP3 files on the MicroSD card only this this I left it in the unit
I usually format the card and install new files separately from the unit but I formatted the card yet by some magical god like intervention the internal storage was also wiped.
I would suspect that Garmin would not make it this easy to delete important files as now the unit is not detected by any computer. The unit has deleted the maps.
It just starts and restarts over and over - I finally managed to get a hard reset to actually do something at all. Now and then it will bring up the software (no maps)and will Bluetooth but a hard reset every time to make this happen and does not always work - basically it a useless device.
None of the Garmin programs can see the GPS - I have backup of the device but no help - I have the factory software no help, the factory reset - partial but does not load the drivers - tried many Gamin driver update - took it back to supplier (GPS specialist) they said have to send to Garnin
I ride a bike and it is hard without the GPS to find my way around plus it include music and my phone plus it cost over $600
surely it is possible to access the root directory and replace what ever files it needs
My question is
How can I get the device to open a port to access the internal storage and load what ? to get the USB port functioning when it plugged into the computer.
I have basic computer knowledge - If anyone knows how to fix this issue please be kind enough to explain the method in easy to follow instructions and exactly what file or files I need and where I can obtain them and how to install them,
Can the port be forced to open -I tried a couple of methods from the net but didn't work for me
Please help if you can
Many thanks for reading and all suggestions would be much appreciated
