Hello,


I have a S500 with a broken screen(which means I cannot use the phone anymore) and would like to recover my contacts.
Since the screen is broken, I cannot put the phone in USB debugging mode.
I was hoping I could recover the contacts by exploring my files when connecting the phone to the pc trough USB.
Where(folder/path) does the S500 store the contacts?

Thx
 
The contacts are in /data/data/com.android.providers.contacts/databases/contacts2.db. You will not be able to access that folder from a PC via USB though (you could be USB debugging, though it might require root too, but not via MTP).

Are the contacts stored as Google contacts? If so check whether they've been backed-up to your GMail account already.
