[Q] Getting data from the phone - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
the phones lcd was changed and something went wrong when we did the assembly. The phone "doesn't" turn on, it does but the screen is blank. I would like to know how can I get the files down.
If there is any way. Thanks for the support!

if you can somehow blind navigate your way to recovery then you can just pull the contents of the internal storage to your adb / fastboot folder on your computer.
adb pull /sdcard/0/ ------- (thats a zero)
or
adb pull /sdcard/0/Music to just pull your Music folder etc, change to Pictures or DCIM etc, the first command above will pull everything.

Was thinking about that, but it's hard to get to recovery. The guy who changed the screen somehow damaged the buttons but when I connect the phone to the laptop, I get an bip, that the phone is connected.
But the problem is that I get an uknown device notice and when I wan't to update drivers, I get an error. Is it maybe the problem USB 3.0? Should try with USB 2.0?
Hmm...will go mad .)
Any idea?

Can't pull files

My nexus isn't letting me pull files out of system, it says they don't exist even though I can CLEARLY see them. I'm trying to pull out helix launcher to rename it for a morph, also trying to apply the facebook touch mod but it won't let me pull them! Am i doing something wrong?
adb remount
Some suggestions:
make sure your computer can see the phone:
adb devices
make sure your file name is correct. Backslashes ("\") are not valid, don't forget the leading "/", also file names are case sensitive ("file" is not the same as "File")
if you're using an USB hub, make sure it has enough power. A hub that I use needs external power, otherwise the nexus usually doesn't connect or just stops sending the file mid-way and I have to replug to get it to be detected again
You might know these already. So ignore me if you do
PS: if nothing else works, go into the shell (adb shell), "cd" to the correct directory, and "cp" the file to "/sdcard". Then just grab it from the SD.

[Q] Internal SD card retrieval?

Hi, new here and I have a question:
I broke the screen on my Cappy and just got a replacement. The thing is, I hadn't moved all my pictures and movies (and various other things) to the external SD card. I've been searching for a way to retrieve them and it doesn't seem to look good.
I've tried on 2 other phones to get into CWM and mount the USB storage from there (Since hard keys are my only option) and it didn't work there (same model and mod) or when I tried on the bricked phone (6 menu options down, 2 up to mount sd card).
The question is this:
How can I through some way get all this data downloaded to my PC? Boot loader, download mode, recovery... I know just enough to do what I need to do to mod my phone, but not enough to know how to do this.
Any help would be appreciated! You guys have helped me so much by your informative posts I would be humbled for you to help me specifically.
Install adb
If you had usb debugging enabled you cab just boot up, if not recovery will communicate with adb regardless.
Adb pull /mnt/sdcard (where ever you want it to go on your PC)

The following happens when I try:
C:\> adb pull /mnt/sdcard c:/sd/
pull: building file list...
pull: /mnt/sdcard/lost.dir/28 -> c:/sd/lost.dir/28
cannot create 'c:\sd\lost.dir/28': No such file or directory
Nevermind. It should have been:
C:\> adb pull /mnt/sdcard c:\sd\
In windows, file locations use back slashes. you're telling it to go to c:/sd/
Should be c:\sd and no final backslash.

[Q] Internal SD Card corrupted

My wife seems to have corrupted her internal SD card, absolutely no idea how. She was bone stock, not even rooted. I could not get stock to even boot past the boot animation, so I tried one of the GB 1 Clicks and boogs KJ3 kernel to get CWM, now I can boot to the launcher, but it bootloops from there. I don't want to format the internal SD until I can get her pictures from it if possible, so my question is: is there a way to get the pictures off, if they even still exist? I have tried mounting in CWM and all i get is a lost directory, now I can't even mount USB storage.
Boot into recovery, then use adb to pull from /mnt/sdcard
Don't need to mount with adb.
Just tried this, I get an empty directory. Tried using adb shell and still showing an empty directory. Any other thoughts, or am I going to have to reformat?
Ouch....I think a format is in order.
sorry man
Well I got it to boot with the kk4 1 click and it runs, but the gallery is empty, so I assume I'm hosed. Any thoughts on cause, she says that earlier she got a message in the notification area about removing her sd card (she has no external, just an internal)?
Try this
Set your screen timeout to the max. Reboot y your phone. Keep touching the screen, don't let it go to sleep. Keep doing that as you pull everything from the phone.
About adb
If you don't set a destination folder in your command, it won't pull. If she's on 2.1, you don't use the mnt part. Place a folder directly on your c drive, so that it's address path is c:\your folder name
This makes your adb command
adb pull \sdcard\ c:\your folder name
Do all of this without letting the phone go to sleep. Maybe it will work for you.
Adb pull /sdcard c:\your folder
Forward slash on phone, backslash on pc.

Yeah, your right.
Appreciate both of your input, but now adb won't even recognize that the phone is attached in the stock kk4 1 click, even in recovery. Like I said the gallery is totally empty and my USB storage on the about phone shows that all of the storage is available, so I'm gonna guess it's all gone. I'll try flashing one of the custom kernels for kk4 just to give it one last try, but I'm not holding out much hope here.
How are you trying to connect to your computer with adb? All you have to do is turn usb debugging on and plug in. open a command prompt terminal. Any of that sound familiar?
There should be a "my files" app you can explore the sdcard that way.
Pictures are in DCIM/camera folder.
the stock 1 click did not have a usb debugging option. Got it to work connecting with samurai 1.4.3, but the directories are showing empty or nonexistent.
Studacris,
You must have been posting while I replied. I've used the my files app and it shows dcim as empty. Now, my wife has decided she's gonna give up on the phone since this was her warranty replacement after her first 1 completely bricked after our daughter played with it. Never could get that one to even boot, although, I've found that this one won't boot to download with a jig, have to use the battery pull, vol +/vol -, insert usb cable method.
Thanks again for the attempts, but I think it's a lost cause, so I'm giving up.
Flash it back to stock and get it replaced again.

Copy files from damaged device

My daughter got her m7 wet, now it wont stay running.
It will boot up but it immediately shuts off and shows the charging symbol.
It will run ok in recovery for a while.
Is there any way to copy her files off of the phone and onto the computer from recovery?

if you have adb and fastboot on your computer, you can boot into re3covery and use the adb pull command to pull the whole contents of the internal storage to your computer.
If I remember correctly, the command is just adb pull /sdcard/ and it will pull the entire contents of your internal storage to the adb/fastboot folder on your computer
Yes!
That is working, transferring files now.
I had to use: "adb pull /sdcard/0/" to get it to work.

Thanks for clarifying, :good: its been a long time since I used that command and couldnt quite remember it, you can pull individual folders by adding the name of the folder to the end of that command too, such as adb pull /sdcard/0/Music.

{HELP} OnePlus 3 smashed on wedding day. Trying to recover data. Failing badly.

Hey guys,
My phone got smashed on my wedding day, and I'm trying to save the data on it.
Already bought myself a Soft Gold to replace it, as the screen is about £160 on eBay.
So: not rooted, USB debugging enabled, screen locked via 4 digit number, can't unlock as screen smashed
I can adb into it, and it sees it as a device, but I can't get anything off it.
Below is the dialogue from the command window.
C:\Users\Alex\AppData\Local\Android\android-sdk>adb pull /storage C:/
adb server is out of date. killing...
* daemon started successfully *

Now unlock your device and confirm the backup operation.
C:\Users\Alex\AppData\Local\Android\android-sdk>
Any help greatly appreciated.
At this stage I don't care about the device as I've already got another, I just want the pics/ data off it.

Screen LTD is completely black, doesn't show anything at all.
get in contact with oneplus and ask them if your device gets wiped when repaired, maybe they can do a special request. but they may need to unlock it to test the screen, i dunno. my second idea is if your boatloader is unlocked, which personally i think it should always be since it doesnt void warrenty, then you can flash a custom recovery like twrp. then boat into the recovery using hardware button, MTP mounts automagically, drag everything off

Spoke to Oneplus today, there is no way of repairing it unless they wipe it.
Bootloader isn't unlocked, unfortunately
USB-C hub + external monitor + USB mouse + USB keyboard
Alex,
You should try Android Control. It's a program that uses [email protected] access your phone through your computer. Since you have USB Debugging on, just plug your OP3 in, start the program, and it should show you your screen. From there, you can use the window with the keyboard to swipe up on the lockscreen, and then enter your password. You should be able to extract your data from there.

Checkout an app called vysor. I used it with my Alcatel one touch idol 3 because it's screen was busted. It mirrors your phones screen onto your desktop computer. You might have to find away to disable the password through adb first I'm not sure. But vysor worked perfectly for me! One you connect it it installs the app file onto your device via USB.
[Edit]
Its a desktop program you have to install first in case I wasn't clear in the text above
create a bat file
create a folder on ur pc, go into folder, create .txt file, open put code below and save as filename.bat, double click bat file
adb devices
adb pull /sdcard/ %cd%
that wil backup ur whole internal storage, or u can just do /sdcard/DCIM or fold specific
assuming u can pull via adb
@OnePlus_Alex
1. Install latest ADB. Download Here
2. the code is "pull C:/ /sdcard/DCIM/ "
This should get all your photos to 'C' drive on your PC.

No dice I'm afraid.
I think it might be the other way around, as remote object C: doesn't exist.

Vysor doesn't seem to be able to install the APK, as I have to allow it on the screen

Thanks for the reply!
It seems that I have to allow the computer's RSA fingerprint on the screen, as it won't let me hook into it.
Tried it in recovery mode, normal screen mode and sideload mode.
Thanks for the wedding congrats
