To save everyone a TL;DR type of thread, here it is short and sweet--
I have a broken phone here (a clients phone, so I know little about the interface, just FYI for the rest of the thread), Samsung Admire, LCD and touch screen are done for. So I can see and interact with nothing.
It boots fine, I can hear it do the little jingle "Hello, Hellloo, Hellllooo, Metro PCS" and the problem is I can't get it into USB mode without the touch screen/digitizer to get the necessary files I need off of it.
Is there anyway to get it into USB mode without the LCD or touch screen?
Or another way without USB mode entirely, that I can copy contacts/photos/videos?
My only viable option that I've been considering is just buying one (or broken/for parts) on Ebay and repairing it completely, just to get it into USB mode.
Am I correct in assuming this is my only real option? Thanks for your time and help <3
