hello there :)
so, i have a sony xperia z2 with a broken screen and digitizer. only the backlight is working and it seems to be a broken fuse (see this thread), so no way changing the screen could help. now i'm trying to save the data but every way seems to be an impasse eventually...
first thing i tried was to connect the phone to my screen with an otg adapter but i didn't get any visible result. i found an article saying that one needs to activate screen mirroring first but that was for the z2 tablet. does that apply for the phone, too or should it work and the adapter is just broken?
2nd thing i tried was to flash custom recovery hoping i could later pull the data with adb. i followed the instructions to unlock the bootloader here but appearently usb debugging needs to be activated for that, too? at least fastboot doesn't recognize any device so far.
i also tried mirroring the screen on my computer with seven-square but that too needs usb debugging. :(
is there any way to get the data off the phone? anything that could be worth trying?
i'm currently working on a linux mint pc but if anyone has suggestions that only work with windows that would be helpful, too since i also got windows 7.
thanks for all effort!
