Hi I have a Samsung S2
The batteries are fully charged via another phone
The S2 in question will not turn or anything
It was turned off to charge and now it will not turn back on and we have even tried an usb jig but no joy
Has anyone got any ideas on how to retrieve the photos etc.
Thank you

    You need a Data Recovery Service .
    Possible they can retrieve but at a high cost .

    As above your phone is dead so how can a program like RECUVA see the memory .

    If the data you want is on an add on sd card then remove it and copy off .

    Backup Backup Backup .
  • Have you tried cleaning the phone/battery contacts?
