Broken Samsung Galaxy S8 Recovery

athlone99 · 2018-06-12 20:12:39

Hi, Would anyone be able to recommend recovery software that could download info from a S8 with a broken screen/black screen and no internet turned on? Or would anyone be able to recommend a shop in the midlands that may be able to do it? TIA

Buy a Micro USB MHL Cable for a few quid.

This will help you mirror your screen even though it is broken on your tv and you will be able to transfer files (if your screen digitizer touch controls are okay) via data connection/wifi to google drive/server/wherever.

I have done this many times with no issues.
