Backing up notes and messages into usable formats

eohreish — Fri, 11 Sep 2015 22:02:49 GMT

Unfortunately, I broke my Xperia Go phone's screen. The phone itself works, but the screen doesn't, so I can't back up into evernote or anything like that.

Now, I'd love to extract the notes and messages from the phone. I did it using the suggested software, but the files can't be opened in any program I know.

Is there any PC software that opens these files, or converts/extracts them as usable formats?

Any help appreciated.

How about PCC? or MyPhoneExplorer?

Bridge (for Mac)

PCC is the one I used that resulted in backups I cannot use.

MyPhoneExplorer can't connect with my phone.

Doesn't seem like any of the other apps are capable of backing up notes/can be used without clicking things on the phone (the screen is dead, after all.

If nothing can connect to your phone most likely it's not just the screen that doesn't work but the phone itself

@uliwooly

PCC can connect and does back up, only the formats it produces aren't openable in a PC, at least to my knowledge.
