How to get files if the screen is broken. Restore contact numbers and SMS, even if the phone does not turn on. IPhone data

This process is not particularly problematic if old phone  is in working condition, but in most cases new phone  They buy after an unsuccessful meeting with the asphalt of the previous device. What to do if vital information is left in the old phone and it is inoperative?

For smartphones on android based  there is a possibility reserve copy  data and its synchronization with a Google account. “This should not be neglected. Keep your address book linked to Google and let your phone automatically upload your photos to cloud storage, and then you can access personal data from any device, "said Evgeny Ikonnikov, an expert at Fly.

Step 6: Test the display and front camera

Now check the correct function of the new display. Press the standby key and check the display. In addition, open the camera application and check the function of the front camera and its proximity and brightness sensors. The small metal plate should now be reassembled above the plug-in connections. To do this, he first joins, and then screwed on. It is a good idea to turn on one of the magnetic screws to attach the plate a little. Then the other two may follow. A little harder with a non-magnetic screw on the outer edge - this should be placed with tweezers first in the hole and then tightened.

We bring to your attention several ways that allow you to download the necessary data from a half-living device.

Via the system menu

User information can be backed up through the advanced launch mode. To get started, put a microSD card with a capacity of more than internal memory  phone. Then turn on the device while holding down the power and volume up buttons. You will be taken to the phone’s system menu, which is controlled using the buttons on the case without a touchscreen.

In this case, it is also necessary to ensure that the display is at the right angle to the housing, as otherwise the lowest connection of the plug may dissolve again. Once the plate is mounted, you can start pushing the display back into the frame of the phone. It should be noted that the metal frame screwed to the screen snapped into place and the display was completely pressed without protruding edges - otherwise, the two screws next to the charging socket cannot be screwed in.

Especially in cases where the frame received a small dent as a result of a fall, it takes a lot of finger sensations to accurately insert a new display into the body. Once this is achieved, just tighten the last two screws and the display exchange is complete.

Select menu System recovery, in it is the backup user data item. This will start the process of copying the backup to the memory card. When the process is completed, move the card to the computer and find the folder with the backup extension, which is unpacked using 7zip, WinRAR or Advanced Backup Manager archivers. Next you will see folders repeating file system  Android and db database format files that open with Microsoft Access.

Conclusion: display sharing is usually simple but time-consuming

Self-assembly of the new display is a favorable alternative to the many offers of mobile phone doctors, a change by the manufacturer or even the purchase of a new device. Even inexperienced amateurs can easily exchange a pre-assembled display. But only when the frame already has several deformations due to the fall, does it take patience and time - also because of the partial, but rather complicated delicate work. Thus, the exchange time from ten to fifteen minutes, distributed in many “how” videos, is very careful.

Through the file manager on the computer

This path is suitable for users on whose phone USB debugging is enabled.

Download from the developer's site and install the MyPhoneExplorer application on your computer, which allows you to control your phone with personal computer, including working with the file system.

When connecting via cord mobile app  It is installed on the smartphone automatically, without confirmation via the touchscreen. Press F1 to synchronize the computer with the phone, then copy the contents mobile device  on computer.

For this you need to schedule at least one hour. The shading of a non-pre-assembled new screen should be left, but rather by a professional. Since converting the home button as well as the front camera, including all metal contacts to the new display, hides too many dangers for beginners.

To restore contacts from your broken phone, you can count on the help of your computer. It may happen that even if the smartphone is connected to the computer, we cannot find the contacts we need. Do not worry, there are many very useful programs  to solve these problems.

Since smartphones have become such a natural extension of our lives, and we take these devices wherever we go, even to sleep, we sometimes run the risk of causing accidental damage, such as cracked screens. The chances of increased damage increase if your phone does not have a protective cap, but designer purists claim that these coatings destroy the natural feeling of the device as they were intended. Add more risks if you have children, especially younger ones, who like to throw things, and your chances of a broken device increase dramatically.

99% successful data recovery cases

The most expensive but the most effective way. It consists in the physical desoldering of a flash memory chip. This chip just stores all the information: both the firmware and your personal data. You can subtract everything: phone book, SMS messages, notes, calendars, photos. But provided that microcircuit is not damaged!  The state of the phone itself is indifferent. Whether it is drowned in the sea, moved by a car or even broken in half. The cost of such a procedure from 600 UAHdepends on the phone model.

So, if you get a cracked screen, here are five different repair options that might work for you. Did the broken display get a fix? Extended warranties from the manufacturer or store selling the smartphone. Some smartphone manufacturers and stores offer extended warranty options for your device. But this is what you should buy with your smartphone, and not after it is already broken. Full extended warranties cover incidental damage, the cost of which is less than 5% of the total cost of the smartphone and, of course, less than the cost of changing the screen.

In a nutshell, how to do it. We solder the flash memory chip. We put the memory chip in the programmer. Program download memory dump and decrypt necessary information. The process of this method of data recovery in pictures:




Note! This method  only works for Android phones  and tablets. If you have an iPhone or iPad, you won’t be able to subtract data from them using this method. All information on iOS is encrypted.

If you have an old push-button telephone

The phone does not turn on or, or simply does not display phone numbers in the contact list. In such a situation, the probability of recovering important information is almost 100%, the main condition is never flash the phone or update its software.otherwise, all data will be lost forever. The principle of data extraction is to read the phone firmware file and then decrypt it using special programs.

At the moment, recovery telephone numbers  possible on the following phones:

  • Nokia  - all models on the Symbian platform, as well as older models of the Dct-3 and Dct-4 versions. To do this, it is necessary to read the pm-file of the firmware using a programmer (for example, UFS or JAF);
  • Sony Ericsson  - we read the GDFS file using the Setool programmer or another method via the USB interface;
  • Samsung  - it is necessary to read either the firmware completely (merge full), or only the eeprom part, depending on the model and method of connecting to the computer, usually this can be done through uSB cable, but easier and faster through the programmer;
  • Motorola  - CG2 code group is read from the phone using FlashBackup or any other program;
  • LG  - retrieves the full firmware file with the extension * .bin.

After we have in our hands the necessary file, read from the phone, we should decrypt it and extract the necessary information. We recommend using the programs ReadContact, ReadCV, vCardOrganizer, PMtoBook. The data can be saved in different formats, for example, an Excel table, a comma-delimited file, vCard, it all depends on how you plan to use the extracted data, copy it back to your phone, or simply print it.

To summarize

In the event of a hardware malfunction, there are many possible solutions, but the result depends on the cause of the phone’s inoperability. If the phone cannot be synchronized with the computer due to damage to the display, a broken sensor, damage to the cable or the sync connector, you must replace these elements.

In any case, it is best to first contact the master and discuss with him the possibility of restoring the necessary information from your phone. You can ask a question in the comments to the article or on our website.
