![]() Plug your Flash Drive into another USB port of your system and see if it starts working properly or not. So, you need to plug out the Flash Drive from a USB port it's plugged into, and then try another USB port. Sometimes when your Drive is showing a red light or is not working properly, it might be an issue with the USB Port of your system to which the drive is plugged. Rsync is simpler if you don't need features like encryption (at least to get started: any backup mechanism today is better than a perfect backup mechanism tomorrow).It's not always your Drive's fault. Or set up a rest-server on a remote system somewhere, since it's encrypted it doesn't matter where you run it so long as you trust the remote end not to delete your files on the same day as your phone crashes. ![]() On local laptop: run to accept the incoming data, then (if 1234 is the port that rest-server runs ssh -R 1234:localhost:1234 restic backup /data/ -r -x -exclude /data/media/0/Android/data//Ĭan also do this without root and just sync pictures, but this way you actually get all your data. I also enjoy having the same backup mechanism for my phone, laptop, and server. Termux with restic, so it does deduplication and encryption and such (also compression since a few months but haven't turned it on yet). Other options need to do some things before crash - install app, install alternative boot, activate developer mode, backup all to cloud. I usually avoid such interfaces, prefer to use less secure, but more reliable stock Android. I mean, classically, smartphone boot Android, and it have running usb-otg drivers, etc.īut exists "feature-phones", like samsungs with "secure-boot" included directly into SoC, so it's boot loader have some interactivity with very limited interface (like grub), and it does not have usb drivers/etc. ![]() You only need somehow turn on smartphone, so it will boot system and show SYSTEM login/lock screen.īTW I'm not sure, what You talked about "pin code". Most smartphones now have USBOTG, mean, limited usb host, so You could try to connect ordinary usb mouse with simple cheap connector "microusb otg" or in Your case, "USB-C otg", and it will emulate touchscreen (just appear mouse coursor and than interface will work very like Apple single-button mouse interface, sure multitouch gestures will not work, or attached to other buttons/dial). Is there anything that may still have a chance of working short of replacing the screen to unlock the phone? Thanks and happy holidays. connecting phone to external monitor and keyboard via USB-C -> HDMI (monitor stays black) eyeballing it and trying to blindly enter the passcode shining a flashlight at the screen to see if only the backlight is broken (it seems the whole screen is done for) However, it's only showing an installer for HiSuite (which did not help), not the file system. The phone does still turn on (it vibrates when plugged into a power outlet and shows up on Windows). The photos were stored on the device directly, unfortunately not on an SD card or on a cloud provider. ![]() I am tasked with restoring some photos from a Huawei P30 that has a broken screen/touchpad. The topic of data recovery from broken phones seems to be a prime target from SEO optimised blogspam so I'm posting here in hopes that someone had a similar issue in the past and may be able to help me out. ![]()
