Frequently asked questions
Can you recover data from a Samsung with a black screen?
Often, yes. If the phone still has power, the data is usually intact, and we can work around the damaged display.
Do you need my PIN or pattern?
Yes. Modern Android phones are encrypted and need your credentials to access the data.
Can you recover my Google account data?
Cloud data is held by Google. We recover data stored on the phone and its memory card.
