Guide to Data Recovery from Android Phone Won’t Turn On

How to use this program to make a data recovery from Android in the event of Android phone not turning on? The following is the guide, showing you how to retrieve data from Android phone which is not turning on in two aspects.

Way 1: Directly Recover Data from Android Internal Memory

Before you do, please pay attention to the following things:

• To do a direct Android recovery, make sure you have rooted your Android device in advance. Otherwise, MiniTool Mobile Recovery for Android won't work.
• Guarantee that the USB debugging authority is always enabled on the computer which you connect your Android phone to. Or else, there will be a failure since it is impossible to enable USB debugging on the Android phone that won't turn on.

If you meet these two requirements, now it's your turn to begin to recover data from Android phone that isn't turning on.

Step 1: Run MiniTool Mobile Recovery for Android on your computer running Windows 7/8/10 system and click the left module called Recover from Phone.

Step 2: Connect your Android device to your PC via a USB cable. Please ensure no other Android phone management software is running during the recovery. Otherwise, this tool will work not well.

Step 3: This software lists two scan methods along with the supported file types. Which one should you choose to recover data from phone that won't turn on? Just do that depending on your needs.

• Deep Scan: This scan method is checked by default. And it is designed to scan the entire device so that more files could be recovered, including contacts, messages, pictures, call histories, videos, audios, and documents. But, this mode may cost more time, thus, be patient.
• Quick Scan: This mode only supports recovering contacts, call records, and short messages. Thus, it will scan your device in a fast way.

Step 4: Next, this program will analyze your Android phone that is not turning on and then start a scan.

Step 5: After some time, you will enter the scan result interface. Just click the file type to list the result.

See the following figure: we take message recovery as an example. Click one item, and then you can check whether it is the one you want to recover. Then, select all the items you need and click Recover in the lower right corner.

Tip: The Free Edition has a limitation that it can only recover 10 files of each file type every time. To recover more data from the Android phone that won't turn on, please get an advanced edition and then register this tool in the scan result window to avoid the next scan.

Step 6: Then, a small window appears along with a default storage path. If you want to save the selected files to another location, click Browse to change one. At last, click the Recover button.

Way 2: Retrieve Data from Android SD Card

What if your Android phone hasn't been rooted or USB debugging is not enabled? If there is an SD card used on your phone, you can choose to recover files from the SD card when the Android phone won't turn on.

Step 1: Run MiniTool Mobile Recovery for Android to its main interface and then click Recover from SD-Card mode.

Step 2: Since the SD card cannot be connected with the computer directly, you will need to insert the SD into an SD card reader and use it to connect your SD card to your computer.

After that, you need to click on Next to continue.

Step 3: Then, enter the following interface to select the inserted card.

Step 4: Next, the SD card will be analyzed and scanned, then go to the scan result. If you want to recover pictures from an Android phone that won't turn on, click "Camera", "Screenshot", "App Picture", or "Picture" from the left list, view the items and then check the ones you need to recover.

Step 5: After clicking the Recover button, choose one storage path at last.

How to Fix an Android Phone that Won't Turn on

When Android phone won't turn on, some of you may be eager to fix the faulty phone. Here, we summarize some possible solutions.

① Perform Soft Reset

The first thing you should do is to do a soft reset which can help restart the device if your phone is getting stuck on the logo screen or boot up screen. This is a very effective troubleshooting way.

If you hit the Power button, it won't work at all in case of Android phone not turning on. In this case, you can choose to remove the battery, wait for a few moments, put back the battery and press the Power button again.

Usually, you can hit this button for 8-10 seconds (some phones require holding the Power and the Volume up button together).

If there isn't a removable battery, you can also hold the Power button for 10 seconds or a bit longer.

Some users have reported it is suitable to hold this button for 30 seconds or more.

② Charge Your Phone

If your phone refuses to boot at all after pressing the Power button, perhaps it is out of power. Basically, it may not boot immediately after you charge since device’s battery is completely drained out. Wait for a few minutes patiently.

Besides, sometimes the Android device has a problem: if the battery power is under 20%, the device will turn off and you fail to turn it on until you charge it for a while.

In some cases, you may have to do these operations: let the device charge for a while and long-press the Power button for ten seconds.

However, someone has reported two situations: Samsung phone won't turn on after charging or Android phone won't turn on and it is fully charged. Maybe there is a problem with your device’s software. Then, try the next solution.

③ Perform a Factory Reset from Recovery Mode

To boot in recovery mode, use one of the following button combinations:

Hold Volume up + Home + Power

Hold Volume Up + Volume Down + Power

Hold Home + Power

Hold Volume up + Camera

Tip: It may vary from device to device. If both can't work, please search the way on Google.

Then you will see Android system recovery screen, just select wipe data/ factory reset option to perform a factory reset. For more information, read How to Factory Reset Your Android Phone or Tablet When It Won't Boot.
