Hopefully this is the right place to post this.
I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 (completely stock as it is my work phone), however I have some personal data on it (photos etc.).
The screen and digitiser are completely broken, however the phone still boots; I'm just unable to see what is occurring, or interact with the device.
The device broke without USB debugging enabled, so I am unable to use adb to access the device. I have tried booting into both recovery and download modes (but I have been unable to access using adb regardless of mode). The device is also not set to act as USB mass storage, so it only displays as a media device within Windows.
I have also tried using Kies to access the data, however I receive a message saying that the phone needs to be unlocked. Obviously I am unable to do this, as neither the screen nor adb commands work. Using the Samsung website to unlock the device is out of the question too, as I do not have a Samsung account.
In addition, I have tried booting into download mode and using ODIN to flash ClockworkMod to the device, but ODIN was unable to connect.
I do not have another S4, so swapping the screens temporarily isn't possible, and obviously using an OTG mouse wouldn't work, as I cannot see the screen.
I am really at a loss here, is there any way I can get the data off of this device?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
