I've got an old Android phone with broken display and I'd like to get the data (in particular photos) out of it.
I connected it to my computer but it did not mount automatically and mount
says that "no medium found". With dmesg
and lsusb
I see that it is connected. Could anyone help me to mount it and get access the data? Thanks a lot!
Here is dmesg
output:
usb 1-1.2: new high-speed USB device number 12 using ehci-pci
usb-storage 1-1.2:1.0: USB Mass Storage device detected
scsi host6: usb-storage 1-1.2:1.0

Here is lsusb
output:
Bus 001 Device 012: ID 04e8:681d Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd Galaxy Portal/Spica Android Phone
Here is sudo mount /dev/sdb /mnt/pphone/
output:
mount: /mnt/pphone: no medium found on /dev/sdb.
And here output for sudo lsblk -alp
:
/dev/sda 8:0 0 465,8G 0 disk
/dev/sda1 8:1 0 3,7G 0 part [SWAP]
/dev/sda2 8:2 0 275,8G 0 part
/dev/sda3 8:3 0 200M 0 part /boot/efi
/dev/sda4 8:4 0 186,1G 0 part /
/dev/sdb 8:16 1 0 disk
/dev/sdc 8:32 1 0 disk
Thank you for any help!
sudo lsblk
. You need to mount a filesystem not an entire block device. – datUser Mar 26 '18 at 12:05
