Can I transfer my files to PC from locked phone using TWRP? - Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) Questions & Answers

Hello
I have J320H I forgot the pattern, i tried too much and now it's asking for PIN Code
I want to get my things from the internal memory to PC and then reset it to factory setting
Can I install TWRP and Connect the device to PC and copy my files?
I think the PC will show the device as MTP
Am I correct?
Just wanna ask and be sure before doing anything
Data there is really important

My way worked
I even removed the pattern and the PIN code using TWRP
I was lucky the FRP was OFF

[Q] Shattered N4 - How Do I Retrieve Data?

I dropped my N4 on the ground this past weekend and it now has both a shattered front and back glass. The digitizer does not work so I can't use the touchscreen at all.
Here's what I can share about the status of the phone:
It is still on, I can see the screen, and is fully charged receiving messages.
The power button and two volume buttons work.
The phone's storage is encrypted with the stock android encryption.
I have a 4-digit PIN enabled on the lock screen.
The phone did not have USB debugging enabled when this occurred.
I've tried to mount it to a computer to get the files, but nothing shows up as I believe I need to unlock it with the PIN before it will mount.
I can install apps remotely from the Play store.
I have the Sophos mobile app installed and configured but I don't believe there are any commands to UNLOCK the device, only to lock it and wipe it.
Honestly, I just want my data off of the phone and would rather not replace the screen and continue using it. I love the phone but it is way too fragile. Is there any way to transfer my data? I looked into connecting a mouse to the usb and using that to enter the PIN, but the N4 does not support mice. Since USB debugging was not turned on, I can't connect via ADB. Is there some sort of app I can remotely install from the play store to turn on USB debugging? Is there some sort of app I can remotely install to remotely unlock the device with my 4-digit PIN? If I let it die and then try to boot into recovery, will ADB work then? If so, how would I get the data off of the device if it is encrypted? Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
Is it running a custom recovery?
If yes, just go into recovery and do a nandroid, boot back into android and copy the backup.
If no, there's a thread somewhere with instructions on how to unlock your bootloader WITHOUT wiping your phone.
Unfortunately this is the only android phone I've ever owned that I haven't touched and left completely stock... No custom recovery, no custom ROM. I'll try to look for the instructions on how to unlock the bootloader without wiping the phone, but if I do a nandroid and boot back into android how will I transfer the data? I'd be stuck at the screen where I have to type in my encryption password, and even if I got past that I still can't mount the device in Windows to transfer the data?
Anyone?

The only way I can think is flash an advanced version of cwm (if it doesn't already have one) that has a file manager and make a backup, and copy the recovery to a location on the SD. Then mount USB storage and copy everything over.
Edit: actually, you could mount USB storage in cwm to copy files over, then make a backup through adb on to your computer, there's some tutorials on how to do that

as far as I know no. In bootloader mode is only fastboot, not adb

what i dont understand is how you cannot connect the phone with mtp... that should work without debugging.
EDIT: sorry, youre right, when the device is encrypted, you have to unlock it before mounting.
looks like you made pretty damn sure there is no way for you (or anyone else) to get access to the data on your device :/
although i dont know about unlocking without wiping. maybe that could work.

Google search a program called Motorobo; equivalent to what service providers use.

ADB Pull files via recovery (no USB debug and no OEM unlock)?

Hi, I don't know if this is the right forum for this, but you guys are my only chance of having a solution
I have an S6 Edge+, stock, no USB debugging, no OEM unlock options enabled. Is password protected, but not encrypted. Can't connect to it via USB, cause the user don't want to share the password (I fired him). There is no google account associated for reset, imagine that (it is a company phone and my employee didn't want to associate his personal one).
As part of the project, I need to get some company sensitive files from it and I was thinking pulling with adb in recovery. Can it be done?
I don't want to hard reset it, don't want to brick it and so on. I just need the files and removing/changing the PIN.
I was thinking:
- Odin a recovery (twrp)?
- unlock OEM via command
- Adb pull?
Any suggestions?

Touchscreen not responding -- How can I access and backup my files?

I'm having an issue where my touchscreen completely stopped responding to touches, but the physical buttons still work. I'm rooted and have TWRP installed. I'm trying to backup my files before reformatting. I have an OTG cable which i tried using with a mouse but it doesn't work. I'm not sure if it's because OTG isn't enabled by default? I'm currently able to unlock my phone using fingerprint and I'm already on wifi. I haven't restarted the phone yet because I'm afraid of getting stuck at the startup encryption screen that requires me to physically draw the unlock pattern.
I've had something similar happen a few months ago where I rebooted and wasn't able to get into the phone because of the startup lock screen. I followed a thread to delete the lock files but it ended up completely locking me out of the phone (due to new android security i guess) and in the end I had to reformat everything and lose all my data .
What's the best way to go about this now and either be able to get the OTG/mouse working or at least be able to access and backup all my data? Is there anything I should do before restarting while I can still access my phone using fingerprint unlock?
twrp should allow you to activate usb (think its on by default), that way you can make a nandroid and copy it to pc, as well as copy any photos etc from the internal storage

Ah.. thanks, I will try that!
Hi,
I have the same issue: my touchscreen stopped working a couple days ago, and I'm not able to enter my pattern. I have a USB-C mouse, TWRP 2.7.3 installed, my bootloader is unlocked, but for some reason I'm not able to use the mouse in TWRP. Any ideas?
Many thanks!
I found a solution to backup your data, even if USB OTG is disabled.
First, you need a mouse and an adapter. Personally, I bought this one from Amazon (France).
Second, you need to download the latest version of TWRP for cheeseburger.
Finally, plug your device to a computer and boot into fastboot. Open a terminal and type 'fastboot boot C:\path\to\twrp-cheeseburger.img'.
Your device reboots into recovery, and the USB mouse is working. Enter your pattern, mount Data and plug back the phone to your computer: you should see your data!
Hope this help.

He just sends a link which gives you the files . But those files are not the latest so it will not work on your phone (in case you have same firmware as me) .
If your phone is Binary 4 and lower then it will work.

I cannot bypass google account verification neither able to root it
My phone is unrooted and have no TWRP installed on it
I connected my USB stick via an OTG connector but my phone did not see it
Booting menu has no option to boot into the USB stick connected via OTG and the phone does not have a slot to insert an SD card to root and flash TWRP
I cannot use ADB via my computer because I cannot access the settings on my phone to enable USB debugging even though I downloaded latest Samsung USB device driver on different computers but Odin does not show up my phone
My computers show my phone connected as Unknown USB device (device descriptor request failed) under Universal Serial Bus Controller in Device Manager
I can only connect to WI-FI and keep clicking next until I reach the screen where I have to insert google account to setup the phone but I do not have the google account used before in order to complete the setup

Help to recover data from broken screen phone

Hi,
dont know if here is the correct section, if isnt tell me.
i have a samsung galaxy s7 edge that the screen does not work (its black) but the touchscreen still alive, now the problem is that i have some data i want to backup but i cant unlock the phone beacuse i dont know if im using a wrong password or something else... i can think of some solutions, but i dont know if they are possible.
1) download some apps to screen mirroring the phone on my pc: the usb debugging mode is not enabled.
2) enter into recovery mode and use the adb: the pc recognize the phone but when i tried to use the commands adb shell,push,pull... reponse with "error: closed" msg, i think its because usb debugging mode is not enabled.
3) clone the memory of the phone and install it on some emulator or another phone???
4) i have another s7 edge, change the screen until i backup the data???
Someone can help me or give me some tips? i dont know what to do now, im googling a lot and anything works, all because USB DEBUGGING isnt enabled, perhaps if i can enable it using the adb without unlock the phone (remember i dont know if im using the correct password i need some tries).
Thank you,
Cheers.
