AC Question

can i retrieve or transfer photos from my lg flex if it wont power on?

my lg flex phone ran out of storage and died and the battery would not charge. I did not back up all of my photos onto google cloud. I tried plugging my phone into my laptop and the charging port on my phone melted. how can I save priceless photos still in my phone's gallery that were not yet uploaded to cloud?

Welcome to Android Central! I'm afraid you're out of luck. Perhaps some forensic specialists could try to retrieve that data, but that would cost hundreds if not thousands of dollars (kind of like what you see on CSI:)). Hopefully, in the future, you'll keep this episode in mind and make sure you have Google+ Auto Backup, or some other automatic backup set up. Sorry!
