Chosen Solution
A month ago, overseas, I dropped my phone, a small rock cracked the edge of my Galaxy Note 8. I didn’t turn it off since then as I am afraid I won’t be able to start it again. The display is flickering and not working properly. I am able to figure out to unlock my phone using my passcode on the screen but can’t do more. I was able to plug it in my PC, access and save all pictures, audio recordings, but can’t locate my contacts and saved texts. Anyone know if they are there? #1, I need to retrieve all my contacts that weren’t save on my Sim card and Google #2, I’d love to recover a few contacts’ texts #3, is it repairable, either myself or any recommended services I would pay? I got an online estimate of $260 to replace the screen, which sounds expensive, unless if it solves everything and my phone is working again as before, with all my contacts and texts … any recommendations on how to proceed and my options? Thanks a lot - Patrick
