My phone screen is shattered, totally un-usable. When I plug it into my computer (Linux Mint) it is recognized but I can not enter pin to unlock the screen and also USB debugging is not enabled :(

Is there any way to get the fotos and stuff off the phone?

    Haha, I’ve definitely noted the House parallel before! I once gave a presentation to my team where “everybody lies” was the main focus. Extracting the correct information even from other engineers can be a real exercise. I eventually came up with the exact seventeen words necessary to get QA to tell you exactly what the problem was, and I felt like a real techno-mage.

    I’ve led a privileged life where I never had to hold a customer service role, as I’m confident that shoveling horse manure is more pleasant.

      It honestly like the most knowledgeable people are the worst to get useful information out of. They may think certain things are obvious, or link things together in a way that you don’t, so you can’t follow their internal thought process to fill in gaps.
