My S4 pressure cracked..

The screen lights up a bit on the top right corner.. I don't think it's responsive to touch because i tried my lock pattern while it was plugged into a PC running Kies & It kept reading
"Device in Lock Mode"

Developer Mode is Disabled .. Debugger mode is therefore disabled as well.
with those settings the way they are and my screen being locked ... ADB, MPE, Kies are out of the question right?

So now I am left with one option to recover my phones data, Plug the motherboard into another screen and grab data.. I am looking for a small screwdriver or else I would have solved this question by now but Does anybody now if I can plug my S4 Motherboard into my Note II Screen?

or if I missed another.. different option to grab my data .. It's 2 phone numbers that I need.. my pictures would be nice to have but those arnt essential.. any ideas?

I am sure I can think of some kind of :-$ Reward if you can help me out without physically taking this thing apart..
 
Have you tried turning off, rebooting into recovery and just leaving it in recovery mode....then usb to pc?
Not sure if it will let you connect while in recovery.....but worth a shot before dismantling.
 
You can't recover your data by plugging it into the computer. Since the screen is broken those options are off the table. You can try to repair the screen if you are handy at those types of repairs.

Otherwise, the two contacts should have been saved to your contacts, which should also have also synced with Google. If it was, you can retrieve the contact information online via your Google account. Let us know if you need assistance with that.
