• Lost data on broken flip phone

I have 2 phones, a coolpad snap with the top half snapped off and an alcatel flip phone that the screen only turns white. Anyone have a way for me to get the contacts off of either phone?

      avig Get someone who has working versions of your phones and follow the input required to share contacts via Bluetooth. Or you can take apart the phone and attach the screen ribbon from a working phone to the board of your broken phone.

        Would there be a way to get all the memory info like contacts pictures calls and text messages from my old coolpad flip with broken screen?

            Thankyou Short answer is no, but if you really want, if you get an identical working device, you can usually try to figure out your way to get to the menus and whatever is exportable, usually just contacts and pictures, (not messages), You would be able to Bluetooth it to another device. Its pretty hard even with a decent phone and with a phone like the coolpad, it's really, really hard.

                  avig i had the same problem with a Alcatel phone with a filter (that means that i couldn't connect it to adb ) i went to a phone store and they told me that for a cost they can do it for me (i didnt do it at the end)

                    Flippy On some KaiOS phones vol up + vol down 3 times turns on readout mode. I don't know if there is such a shortcut for coolpads....

                    But well said, coolpads are bad...
