I have a Nexus 4 in front of me with a diagonal crack from top left to bottom right corners of the screen.
The touch screen only responds on the upper half of the phone.
I have been tasked with getting the images, videos, music etc. from this phone, however as I am unable to unlock the phone I am finding it pretty difficult!
Is there any way to get the data from the phone using either software or hardware hacks?
I know there are a lot of very knowledgeable people on this forum, any information is appreciated, even if I have to open up the phone and start cutting wires!
Thank you,
- Pano

Yes there is quite a single way to do it using ADB on your computer. Do you have that set up?

I've not got that set up no, are you talking about This?

OK I installed ADB and Fastboot.
I downloaded the custom Nexus 4 recovery from Clockwork Mod.
Booted the phone into Fastboot mode
Found the phone with ADB, tried to run the recover image... the phones LOCK STATE is LOCKED
How do I get past this!?
- Pano

EDIT:
It seems your bootloader is locked. NRT will unlock it but it will wipe your data. And a locked bootloader won't allow ADB (correct me if i'm wrong)
Try doing a factory reset through Recovery, it should get rid of the lock screen and allow you to transfer stuff through USB. I never tried to so i'm not sure will it work

Hi.
Is the device still under guarantee?
If not, you maybe can open the device and get the storage out of it, if there's no other way. First try it with this program, if you give up and there's no other way, (sorry to say this) you must do that.
Or try this:
Connect your phone to the charger
Reboot it
And start in safe mode (somehow, if you're able to do.)
...or replace the screen!
I'm so sorry for you, that something like that happened.
I hope you to manage to rescue your data somehow.
I also know the bitter feeling of data loss ;(
I hope this helped.

OK just to keep all updated and in case anyone ever uses this post in the future to help them...
I have tried everything, nothing worked as it either involved use of the touch screen at some point, or required me to have previously turned USB DEBUGGING on... I have come up with a new solution :
Using the ADB I will unlock the phone using the command
Code:
fastboot oem unlock
This will WIPE all the data from the phone, however it will allow me to finally install a custom recovery mod.
I am then going to find a way to connect the phone to the computer, clone the internal memory to a virtual hard drive and then use some recovery software to get back all the data that was "erased" when I unlocked the oem
Hopefully :fingers-crossed:....
I'll keep the thread updated

This will only work, if the Computer has FULL ACCESS to the file system.
The best Data-Recovery Program is IsoBuster by Peter van Hoove.
...and also, it's not just normal deleting but WIPING, so recovery chance is very low.
...Nexus 4 ALWAYS makes god-damn' problems: RedLight of Death, No MicroSD, Data Loss because of Google's Locked Bootloader.
My Advice The Next time you buy a Device with Android - Unlock the bootloader to avoid further problems.
I hope you to fix all problems. All the best / Have a nice day

Yes it would appear you have a developer Rom and I doubt it would be useful to anyone. Basically you have two options:
1) Send it back to Google for a replacement. (Could end up waiting a number of weeks)
2) Flash the Factory Image for the Nexus 10 which can be found at:
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#mantaray
This will load the final release of JB which should be already on your device and you could be up and running in 15 mins.

if you flash the factory image you will then be the same as everyone else, no restrictions whatsoever.
Follow this guide:

That is for the Galaxy Nexus however the same commands still apply. Just ensure you download the correct Factory Image and change the file name where appropriate.

Isn't there any solution to "reset" to normal state without going to unlock process and flashing all partitions manually ?
what is the normal way to get back to org. Image when "normal Nexus 10" devices are out of order ?

The normal way is to restore the device using the correct nexus factory image for your device then executing the flash all script included with the factory image. This script will flash all the necessary partitions for you and reset your device to factory stock. This method doesn't require unlocking the bootloader and doesn't require root.

So - can you give us the link to the "right" image - and write 2-3 lines how to flash ? Volume up/down Power to stock recovery etc. Copy image to where ... etc ... this would be wonderful ... thank you so much ...
Nexus 10 Factory Image:
https://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images#mantarayjop40c
You also need to set up the Android SDK, especially adb and fastboot.
Reboot to bootloader:
adb reboot-bootloader
When in fastboot mode, you can start flashing the factory images.
flash-all.bat does all the work for you.
But make sure, adb AND fastboot is working inside CMD!
Thank you very much ... we will give it a try ... even if i don't know how many user get a developer version of the Nexus 10 ... this order was normaly done ... and we were some kind of surprised when the tab was started ...8)
Oh Google .. something went realy wrong this time ... 8)
Interesting that you're the second person to have this debug ROM installed and both of you are in Germany.
Me too, same here, living in Germany.

Motorola Defy XT: So what does it mean when this is the only screen your rooted Defy XT can make??? Once i turn it on this the first and only thing that appears on the screen but after a few min. my phone starts being a phone and everything, well at least making all the sounds it used to and receiving messages still, but the screen is kaput. Is my phone Bricked for good? or is there anything I can do? Please someone help!!! :crying:
Did this happen after rooting or anything else
If you have cwm then find your rom And flash it
If you don't have cwm and you have enabled USB debugging then flash it via adb
If you are able to get in recovery mode then your phone is not bricked. It's just a system crash
Did you flash any zip from pimp my rom then flash the rescue package
By the way just stay cool. It will only take not more than a week or two to know the cause and repair it

Hey thanks for the response!
I've actually only just rooted my phone. I haven't put any rom on it. It is still running the factory gb on it. Only rooted it so that I could run a screen shot app on it, and was probably eventually going to rom it once I became a little more knowledgeable about doing so. But everything was working fine with the phone after rooting it, for about 2 weeks even, but yesterday I just pulled out my pocket after coming out of the grocery store, clicked it to unlock it and there was that screen. Tried everything to get rid of it, took the battery out, plugged it in the wall, my computer. Nothing. Weird thing is though, after 5 min of being on, it will continue being the phone that it is, making all its regular sounds and receiving messages and notifications, just with that pixelated screen, which leads me to believe that it might be a hardware/bios problem, or if phones even have bios. This is my first smart phone so I'm just really starting to get to know it. Again, appreciate all help given! Just bummed this phone I've had for a month has already crashed on me.

Also forgot to mention I tried a factory reset by memory but with no visual it's hard to see if I'm even doing anything.
Search for your stock from and flash it
You can also use the custom from like miui v5 for defy/defy+ http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2232947
Do you have a cwm recovery? Or you have to use the fastboot method

[Q] [bricked?] cyanogenmod 20130721 nightly broke my phone!

hi, i updated my phone with the last cyanogenmod nightly as always, but when it restarted i cannot use 3g or wifi, i can't browse internal folder connected by usb and adb doesn't recognise it
i can't even try to install any drivers because it doesn't even recognise them...
help me please...
i don't know what to do
Flash the last working ROM you used. wipe cache.
Sent from my Nexus 4
bricked means the phone doesnt turn on or do anything, its essentially a "brick"
before you became a rom flasher, with a rooted phone, you should of learned your way around first, at least learn the basics when it comes to servicing your device. i bet you used a root toolkit because it was easy and you didnt have to learn anything http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2367406
a. if you made a nandroid backup(you should always before flashing something new) restore it.
b. flash the latest rom that worked for you(if its still in your storage), via your recovery.
c. youll have to figure out how to get adb working on your computer and push a rom to your phone via the adb push option in your recovery.
d. if all else fails, fastboot flash the factory img and reroot.
i'm not a total newbie...
i rooted my phone (and the prevoius one, a htc tattoo) without any toolkit
if i could flash something i clearly never opened this thread -.-
-adb does not list my device
-i can't install any driver, even the one included in the official sdk
the message i get is this:

i can turn on the phone, but:
- i can't use internet neither with wifi neither with 3g -> i can't login into my google account or download another rom
- signal is absent -> i can't make phone calls or send sms
so, for me, it's a total brick
i didn't know about the fastboot option, i tried and it worked.
thank you all

if fastboot worked for you, then adb should have worked. i bet it might be something as simple as updating adb/getting a new version of adb. anyways, im glad fastboot worked

[Q] Hard bricked (no boot, no download mode)

I've been digging around online and can't find anything that helps me in my case.
Here's my stupidity: I flashed a kernel that was not intended for my phone (meant for Note 2). Reboot and dead screen. Can't get into download mode, recovery, nothing. Removed battery. Didn't help. Plugged into computer. Doesn't pick up anything connected. Odin doesn't see it. Tried RIFF. Can't get it to install the drivers it's supposed to. I saw something about jig dongles that can force it into download mode but I don't know about that.
What really stinks is I had just compiled SheepShaver for android and it took a few hours of work and I really don't want to do that all over again. Also pictures of my father who's just passed away are on there.
Am I screwed? Is there any way at all to get the proper kernel flashed back on this thing without a wipe? If not is there any way I can fix this phone? I have a semi-recent backup (about a month old) on my SD card. I have both Titanium Backup and a full nandroid backup on the SD.
Someone please come to my rescue. I've logged countless hours on this phone and I love it. All this because I couldn't get SELinux to go permissive...
You already know the answer. If you flashed a kernel not for your device and with the symptoms you have, your hard bricked. Jtag is the answer.

I think you will need the actual riffbox device. I've long since given up on trying to interface over USB. Riffbox talks directly to the memory chip. Need to be comfortable with soldering. But I do happen to have a link to the latest release of their software. http://www.unlockforum.com/showthread.php/riff-jtag-manager-v1-72-more-new-models-32724.html?
Thats the forum they use. The official site is riffbox.org
Sorry I don't know much else to tell you. If it won't boot it won't listen for a connection on USB. Some devices have a failsafe that activates a sort of programming mode over USB but the Galaxy S4 isn't one of those devices afaik.

Galaxy J5 (2017) stuck in recovrey mode.

Hi. During the update to Android 10 the phone turned off and after switching on it goes into recovery mode.
The phone is not mine and this description was provided to me by the owner of the phone. I was unable to see the phone directly because of the quarantine, so as a first solution I thought about a restore via odin. Has anyone had this problem? And is there a less drastic way than Odin to solve? Because the owner has some data that he would prefer not to lose.

How did you get android 10 on j530f?
I get the same messages when I enter recovery but I'm able to get out. You could use odin to reflash the firmware but keep all the data.
You won't be able to do a thing with Odin if the device doesn't have an unlocked bootloader and USB debugging enabled which I doubt it has seeing as it's a stock update that was attempted.
What happens to the device once plugged into a PC? Is the data corrupt or is the device recognized and files can be seen?
I have the same problem with almost the same recovery messsges. It also says dm verity failed. Odin and samsung 300k tool both dont work.

Hi,

Not even to flash a stock firmware? It seems strange to me, in the past I have often used odin on my S2 also for the stock ROM.
The device always reboot in recovery, I don't think the PC can see it.

Hi, the details were given to me by another person, the only thing that I (and this person knows) is that the phone during an update has turned off and reboots in the attached image window.
Thanks for the tips, I will report it to the person concerned, hoping that he can install the twrp.

Put the j5ylte update onto sd card.
Get the update from updato or sammobile or somewhere.
Then reboot stock recovery and apply update from sd card. Or sideload it using adb on a computer. Not very complicated at all
Install the stock rom like i described here: https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-j5/help/to-stock-rom-t4099857
