Getting access to photos if broken touchscreen on Xperia Z5 (Solution)

Hi everybody, I'm just posting here to give my advices on what I did to access to the photos on my phone (Xperia Z5).

1)If your touchscreen doesn't work anymore and you can't change the USB connection mode, there is hope. First of all, get an OTG cable, very important if you want to connect a mouse to your phone. To connect, close your phone (by holding power buttom and volume up buttom), then connect your mouse to your phone with the OTG and restart the phone.

2)When it's done, you need to enable the developers mode. Go to Settings<About the phone, then click 7 times on version number (something like that) and return on settings

3)Go to Security and enable the unknown sources, return on settings

4)Go to Developer options, enable , USB Debugging and scroll down to "Select a USB configuration". Click on it and change it to something else than MTP, then reclick to select MTP this time.

Try to connect your phone to your computer, maybe it'll work because it worked fine for me.

If it doesn't work, retry step 4 again

Bonne chance! Hope it helped

P.S. I tried ADB with the platform tools, but it didn't work. So if you're out of ideas, try it
