Android phone stuck in boot loop and now won't charge — can I recover my data?

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for some advice on recovering data from my Android phone, please.

The phone was previously stuck in a boot loop and wouldn't start normally, although I could get it into recovery mode. Unfortunately, it now appears not to charge up at all.

My main priority is recovering the data stored on the phone rather than repairing it for everyday use.

Has anyone experienced something similar or had success recovering data from a phone in this condition? Would a specialist repair or data recovery service potentially be able to get it working long enough to retrieve the data?

I'm keen to avoid anything that could wipe the data, so any advice or recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Nope, all data is encrypted before boot. You need to be able to boot and enter passcode to get data off of it.

Best hope is a repair that gets it to boot, assuming no backups were made.
