My kid broke my wife's tablet. It's not that expensive (about £50) but there a lot of stuff on there my wife wants to keep. What's the better option, getting it fixed/fixing it myself, or just getting a new one?
My kid broke my wife's tablet...
buy the exact same model, then swap the main board, problem solved
It's just the touch screen that's damaged. the back will clip back on
Connect it to a PC via USB cable. You'll be able to download data from there probably.
Plug it in to a PC and back up the stuff
This is why I hate kids and plan to never have one
Accessing the data via USB may still be possible.
Otherwise, make a backup next time.
Connect back the display wire the orange thingy make sure it's locked connect with pc copy every thing and get a replacement for the touchy screen good as new
There's a screen lock that can't be bypassed by just plugging it in (you usually have to select what USB connection you want as well). We have backed most of it up but without the touchscreen we can't do anything with it (The circuits around the black edge have been split)
This will probably we worth a shot, I'm just not sure I have the tech knowhow to do it
Then try to use ADB
just buy a new one letting it repair will cost 50 pounds
new screen costs £7.99. Just found one on amazon
Or a program called Android data recovery or alike
See now that's the type of relevant info to include in the original post
The orange wire it will connect on a thingy see the connector on the board put it and gently push it display will start working. You will be able to see and transfer data or if you can turn it around show the backside I will be able to guide you better
Get a new one. A new kid, I mean.
connect a mouse or keyboard using an OTG USB adaptor and remove lock/set deafult usb mode to enable connection to keyboard
>to enable connection to keyboard
to enable connection to PC
>fixed the typo
How about you teach your fucking kid the value of money. Light his ass up.
nice
Yeah well hopefully the ribbon cable connector on the mobo wasn't damaged when the back was pried off
plug a fucking mouse into it op
you can use that as the touch screen
