Q
Is mobile phone forensics possible even for a broken mobile phone?
Views50,273
A traffic accident occurred during a family trip. My daughter had been filming with her mobile phone from before the accident occurred, but the phone broke. This video could be important evidence, so I am very worried, and I am curious about whether data can be extracted even from a broken phone. The phone does not turn on at all and the screen does not respond at all, so is recovery possible through mobile phone forensics even in this state?

I imagine you must be very worried because the phone fell into water and broke. Even in such a situation, there is a way to recover data through mobile phone forensics.
The key is whether the phone's memory is undamaged, and even if the device is broken, the memory itself may still be alive.
If the memory is intact, the internal data can be extracted using mobile phone forensics equipment.
The recovered data can be used as important evidence, such as photos, videos, and messages, and can be submitted as evidence with legal effect.
However, because incorrectly touching or charging the device can further damage the data, never touch it arbitrarily and entrust it to an expert.
The Daeryun Law LLC Digital Forensics Center, based on its mobile phone forensics experience, checks the condition of the device and then guides you on the possible methods.
Even if data cannot be extracted from the device, we will seek other methods to reveal the truth of the case.
If you wish to obtain the results of resolving the case as soon as possible through mobile phone forensics, you may wish to entrust it to our firm's forensics expert and receive a consultation on the exact possibility of recovery.
Regardless of the condition of your device, our firm will help you find the best possible method.
