Hi,
I have an Xperia Z, with a cracked screen that is not responding to touch anymore.
Tried to copy files from Phone to PC, but I'm not able to see the sd-card or files.
Tried the PC Companion. It sees the phone, but say's it has to be unlocked. Which is not possible anymore.
I also tried MyPhoneExplorer (which seems to have spyware on board according TrendMicro), but also no success.
Please help, because I need my 1100 pictures....
Kind regards, Jelmer

Sorry to hear about your phone.
If your pictures are stored on an external SD-card you could remove that and access the files using a card reader but files stored on the phones internal memory can unfortunately not be accessed without unlocking the phone using the screen.

i have an option is use usb on the go so you can use the mouse to unlock your phone and copy all the data you need even you can restore your phone. you can buy one on the ebay for a couple dollars.
