Hey all,
Looking for someone that can repair my screen and save my data.
Plain and simple.
Going through a divorce and there are documents and texts and such that are personally important to me.
The device is rooted running a dorimanx kernel but adb was never working properly on the VS980 without manual intervention.
I have no way of seeing anything on the screen and adb isn't there..
There is twrp installed but the screen is a "white noise" static screen. Nothing else.
LG can repair it, but no way to save the contents.
Device never dropped or cracked.
Please contact me if you think you can help.
Thank you in advance.

Hey there guys.
Dropped the Uni and the screen fell off and smashed, its still conected via the wire, and i can still sync it to my pc.
However, I have stuff on there that i would like to keep, such as texts (sms), pic messages (mms). Idealy, i would like to be able to "image" it, like you do with a PC, then copy it onto the replacement phone (already sorted, under 24 hours with o2 insurance) so its exactly the same.
Is something like that possible? Bearing in mind i cant see/use the screen.
Ive tried to find a screen control app, but they all the ones I have found require you to run something on the device, which i cant do.
If it helps, its running WM6 and im running Vista.
Any help at all would be really appreciated
Thanks,
Chris
hm
dw, i gave up and just put everyhting back on there.
Hey guys, well I managed to do it. Smashed my first screen. On a new phone too... I would have expected to smash it after a year or so but NOOOO I went and messed it up after a month or so...
Anyway, I want to pull a full backup off of my phone. NANDROID Backup is it ?
It still works fine, and I can see tiny tiny parts of the upper left of the screen. and connect through ADB. But none of the ADB remote controlling things I have found work with my mouse/KB.... If I could do that I would be satisfied...
And when I try and remove the pattern via ADB I get permission denied.... Ive spend the last few hours trying to figure out what to do here but im at a loss...
Anyone able to help me out ?
Also, Anyone able to tell me how much money im gonna loose replacing this screen ? ;___;
I can also boot into CWM, But I dont know what is what, like, I dont know whats selected because I cant make out the words... I want to do a full backup of everything to external SD card if possible.... photos of the screens of CWM would help XD
I dont remember what version I have installed sorry :c
But yes, PLEASE HELP ME!
Some day I may be able to help you in return, Until then I extend my deepest thanks to all who can help me even in the slightest...
Additional notes:
Screen is buggered, one of these things for the most of it, And the digitizer glass itself is cracked quite a bit on the upper left... :c
I seem to recall seeing CWM 6.0.3 or something along those lines...
I tried these:

Ever find out?
Ever figure out CWM menu?
I'm in the same boat and waiting for the OTG USB HDMI out adapter to show up, hopefully I can get the mouse and HDMI going at the same time and Titanium Backup everything.
Good Luck!
Hi guys
I dropped my phone at work today and cracked the screen. The touch screen is unresponsive. I don't care about the damage to my phone. I just want to save my photos that I have on the phone. Any help would be appreciated. There was another similar thread but I tried that method and it did not work for me. Im a big noob when it comes to phones. Is there anyway I can save my files or no?
Thanks for the help!
The phones not rooted

Normally all you have to do is connecting your phone to a Windows PC with a USB cable and open Explorer. The phone should show up on the left hand side and once you select it it will show all folders on your phone. Including either DCIM or Pictures folder where you should find your pictures.
Hi guys,
My wife dropped her phone and now the screen doesn't turn on. The phone is still on because the blue LED in the top corner still flashes, and I feel the phone vibrate when taking a screen shot. She has some files on the phone for her externship that I'd like to recover along with some pictures of our puppy and of course we didn't set up the phone to be accessed as an media device before the accident.
I came across the thread below asking about a screen replacement also but it looks like the end result was sending the phone in for service:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/ax...-7-mini-screen-replacement-t3588093?nocache=1
I'd rather replace the screen myself so that I can recover the data. I just can't seem to find the screen anywhere to buy. Does anyone know where I can find it? Or even a compatible screen? As long as it'll power on and function enough to enable use as an mtp is all I need.
Thanks for any help!
DEAR ZTE CUSTOMER,
You can back up your phone data first, then fix your phone in nearby after-sale service site. If you do itself, there are risks for losing your data.
Thank you!

Thanks for your reply William, but backing up the phone data is the main problem I'm having. The screen is unresponsive so I'm unable to back it up. As such, I'm looking for a compatible screen so that I can recover what's still on the phone.
If you know of a way that I can back up the phone data without needing to use the phone for any inputs please let me know!
Hi,
Did you have any luck doing this? I'm having the same issue and can't find a way to retrieve my data before I risk repair/losing it.
Many Thanks,
DB
Sorry

Hey,
Sorry I didn't. I haven't heard anything back from ZTE and I haven't had any luck finding a replacement screen. I ended up just buying another 7 mini from Best Buy. My current plan is whenever the newer phone gets replaced, I'll put that screen on the old phone to get the data off of it that way. It's a sucky solution and I wish parts were more available but at least in my case the data isn't vital so I can wait to get it.
If you end up finding anything on replacement screens please come back and let me know!
EDIT: I did some searching again and I can find some screen parts now. That's the good news. The bad news is that the screens themselves are still about half the price of a new phone. If the screen price drops to about $50 or $60 I'll probably get one and do the swap. Until then I'm going to wait.

Hi Guys,
Today was my karma day. IDK what I did wrong, but my phone just stopped working and that just added a big problem to me.
So about the problem.
Short story - need to recover at least photos from the phone.
Long story - Today the phone just shut itself down and after trying to turn back it on it seems like it's in a boot loop or something similar to that. Video (BELOW) (sry for a long video, just wanted to capture it all). I can't start it normally nor my pc detects the phone... I tried a couple of recovery programs but A) They don't do **** B) They don't support S7 edge. So I tried to see if I could access the phone from called "odin screen" where you go when you root or mod your phone, but no luck there. So the only option I see is left to me, even that I don't want to, I need to somehow root the phone or do some "magic" that you guys know more about to access the phone memory and extract photos, if possible other data, to my pc. That is the main objective. The secondary is of course to fix the god damn phone, but even root kitty like me should handle that. P.S. Forgot to tell, but it's visible in the video - the LED is turned on with blue light all the time while it does that, even when I go to recovery screen or "odin screen".
Objectives:
MAIN:
A) Recover data.
Secondary:
B) Fix phone.
P.S. It's late for me, so I won't be able to try much today, so hopefully tomorrow after trying your suggestions something will work :good:
P.S.S. While making the video, I encountered a new bug, PHOTO (BELOW).
P.S.S.S. This phone was never rooted or moded, bought from a UK shop and used for 4 ish years.
P.S.S.S.S. As I'm new and can't post links... They are below:
