Retrieving contacts from Nokia 5800 half dead?
My old nokia 5800 is probably dead, i dont know, i had an accident with it, so it shattered, i managed to put back its pieces and when i plug it to the computer and the power, it sounds like if it were detecting it but rapidly it goes off, like if i were pluggin it in and out all the time. so i have a tiny hope its not fully dead.
my contacts are in the internal memory of the phone, i have already checked the external card. any help with this?

I've tried the cold option a few times and its not working, the cable works smoothly with all the other devices so i guess its not an issue.
Now i must try the "heat" option.
The contact pins from the phone to the battery was broken, (see picture) i had to purchase a piece and use that press to make sure its attached to the phone. **They are not soldered**

Try different temeratures & different humidity to find the correct combination to get a "reliable connection" that should allow you to retreive your data.
As the Nokia is broken this is a "hit or miss" method that may or may not be sucessful after multiple attemps so:
Good Luck
Also try another (new) cable to connect it to the computer.
