[Q] Galaxy S5 broken screen, no USB debug need BACKUP. Help please

Hello guys.
Need urgent help with Samsung Galaxy S5 backup.
Screen and digitizer dont work, also USB Debugging is not turned on.
I need to make SMS and contact backup to Xperia Z3.
I have backup of contacts.spb and messages.sme on my PC.
Options:
I tried with mouse trough OTG cable and I can unlock the phone (there is no pattern or PIN), but its to hard to navigate with nothing showing up on screen.
Micro to HDMI cable is option but i need mouse or keyboard to turn on USB debug.
I have Kies 3 backup of contacts and SMS from this phone but they are in proprietary Samsung formats
*.sme and *.spb, tryed to make recovery of this files to Samsung Grand Neo 2 wich I have but Kies 3 isn't compatible
with this phone and older Kies cant read Kies 3 backup :/
So the only option to recover backup is to have another working SGS5 or Note3 or some reader/editor of proprietary
Samsung formats.
I have very important data on this phone.
Can somebody help me with this?
Thank you all.

Looking for OTA stock update.zip for N910F

Hi All
I am looking for an update.zip file I can use to flash the stock 6.0.1 rom again over my existing version to fix a USB connection issue. I need a Samsung OTA update.zip which can be flashed from the stock recovery via an sd card.
This has come to light as I've recently tried to update my note 4 to nougat but came across an issue where the phone will not connect with my PC via USB. I have tried all the usual tricks on the phone (dev options, usb debugging, MTP+ADB etc) but nothing was working. In the end I have replaced the micro usb daughter board on the phone thinking there must be an issue with the data pins but the phone still refuses to connect but charges fine. Strangely the phone thinks it's connected fine but the PC says it is not getting a device descriptor response. I have checked drivers etc and also tried 3 other PCs all of which connect to my old S4 without issue. I have also tried various USB cables including a new genuine samsung one.
Due to not being able to connect to a PC in any mode (such as odin download mode or recovery) and having the stock recovery without root my only hope is that a new update.zip will sort out corruption from the last OTA update. I believe this may be the reason as I was able to connect fine until the most recent update a couple of weeks ago. I have tried using a zip from the samfirm downloader but the recovery failed immediately with 'unable to map file'
Any help you guys can give would be greatly appreciated as I really don't want to be stuck on Marshmallow now Samsung will no longer be updating the Note 4.

I have tried connecting in MTP mode, odin download and recovery mode with usb debug both on and off
Many Thanks
Luke

SM-G935FD: Black broken screen with no USB debugging enabled, how to backup?

Hi all,
My Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge (SM-G935FD) has broken screen after a drop. The screen is black or flickering with green, but I think that it still reacts to touch. The firmware was upgraded to Oreo stock very recently, and the phone is not password or pattern protected. USB debugging is disabled (it has never been enabled) and the phone is OEM protected, so flashing a custom recovery with ODIN doesn't work (I tried). I'd like to backup the data, and I need to find a way to enable USB debugging for that. I see two options:
- Boot into maintenance mode to activate USB debugging in spite of the black screen, using physical keys. The thing is that I can't seem to boot into maintenance mode with that version of the phone following instructions found online (maybe this maintenance mode is specific to some versions or carriers, or am I missing something here?).
- Blindly activate USB debugging using an external keyboard. To do that, I would greatly appreciate help from one of you to know the exact sequence of keys.
Hope I can get this working!
Thanks

No one with a keyboard and OTG adapter to help me on that?
Thanks!

Device not detected with Computer

Hello,
I'm posting to XDA Developers today because I'd appreciate to get some assistance with a Samsung Galaxy A3 (2016) device.
A few weeks ago, a custom rom had been flashed but it unfortunately failed for some reason and now the device is stuck on a bootloop (Stuck on the Samsung logo), and it seems that it doesn't have any IMEI anymore (Field empty).
However, I can still access TWRP and the Download Mode.
The problem here, is that my device is not detected by the computer. When I put the device on Download Mode and connect it, Odin doesn't show it (Which would mean that the device isn't detected by the computer).
Also, when I put my device in sideload mode (With TWRP), it isn't recognized as well.
I've tried to reinstall the drivers but nothing worked.
Thank you all in advance for all your help,
Have a nice day.
