I am suffering the (seemingly common) non working screen issue on my Xperia Play. It seems there is a way to do a factory re-set but I need to access data saved on the phone (non sim contacts etc) and also get a look at all the apps that I have installed so I can re-install them in the event of a factory re-set.

Is there any way I can get access to the main screens via the control pad or via the USB on my PC? Btw I have one of those 9 dot pattern locks installed as well as the slide lock.

Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks
