No display input from Intercept

Hi guys, I just got my Intercept, and after following this video, my screen won't display anything. It's like the screen is not plugged in but the phone is on. It still makes noises and you can still feel it vibrating, the bottom and keyboard lights still come on. This happed after the point in the vid when the download finished and the phone restarted, except my phone didn't restart. It just sat there, doing nothing. I can't get into recovery mode, or download mode. When plugged in, the PC still recognizes the phone, but it isn't mounted so I can't access any files.
Is there anything I can do? Or is it completely bricked?

No link to the vid. I have a good feeling what you did is used the file that came with SWUpdater instead of a file made for the intercept. Which means you have a samsung moment system on your phone. There is no known way to recover from this as it has happened to several. It isnt completely bricked no but it is a paperweight.

Retrive files from broken phone

So I messed up. I dropped my Nexus 6P and the screen shattered and the display won't turn on. The phone is still working however since it vibrates when i touch the display and stuff, I just can't see anything. I am now wondering if I can access my files somehow? I had usb debugging enabled until I went back to Anroid M from the N beta. I forgot to turn it on again after the reset. So is there anything I can do?

Maybe a little more info? What files? On the SD card you should still be able to connect it to your computer.

Girlfriends s7 screen is dead and not rooted

So my girlfriends s7 screen is completely black now. She has a password set on the phone and developer options are turned off. The guy at Verizon says they won't be able to get data off it. Smart switch says the device needs to be changed to MTP but I can't see what I am doing.
Any ideas?
Thanks!

Is the LCD dead? Have you tried hard resetting it? I had one in for a repair that just needed a hard reset. Otherwise, as long as the information is important enough, get the LCD repaired and you will be set.

What happened prior to the screen not working? Do the back and menu backlit buttons light up? I had a S5 that did that a while back and turns out it just needed a charge. For some reason the charger had stopped working and I didn't know it. I know its a dumb question but have you tried that? Do any LEDs come on when the phone is charging?

Recovering photos from device with burned screen

A few days ago my girlfriend who has a J5 (J500M) accidentally let her phone fall into the washing machine and she turned on and put it on charge after little time and her screen burned. The cellphone works but I can't see anything in the screen (I know he works because the phone vibrates when receiving calls/messages), so the thing is: she have a lot of important pictures she took with the smartphone and she didn't wanna lose it all, but I tried a lot of things and none of them really worked:
Tried to put the phone in Download Mode and pull the images with ADB but the USB Debugging is not enabled, so it wont recognize the device.
Tried to put her password in the screen but I'm pretty sure the touch isn't working too.
Tried some programs that promises to recover my files but they didn't work.
I was thinking about flashing CWM and try to mount the storage partition but I couldn't find, I only found TWRP which is touchscreen only (I guess).
So anyone have any ideas to try?
PS:The screen is off so I can't see anything and USB Debugging is off.
Thanks guys,

The only way is to find some with j500m LCD and pay a little amount to just put the LCD and copy all your files and remove the LCD done. Someone like phone repair

Samsung S8 screen gone black and unusable

Hi,
My girlfriend has a Samsung s8 and the screen has gone black and we can not see the screen. We are still getting notifications but no screen.
The thing is she needs to access the phone to retrieve images and videos of our 5 month old. Also to access texts to access her bank account and Facebook gmail etc.
I have looked on net and been told to put in debugging mode and connect to pc but I can't see the screen so I can't do that, I have been told to put it in download mode to use some software to do it but I can't put in download mode.
Anyone any ideas to wither mirror the phone to pc and use on pc or put in download mode without using the buttons or screen of the phone.
Thanks

Sounds like the digitiser is broken.
Don't think there's a way to mirror the screen without downloading an app or changing system settings I'm afraid. Your girlfriend should still have warranty on the phone though, so I'd say send it to Samsung for them to fix it. Unless the device was dropped or tampered with and/or there's visible damage that's the way to go I guess.
