I did a bonehead move and dropped my Incredible. The screen did not break, but not longer appears to function either. I'm not too concerned about the data on the internal memory all though it would be nice to retrieve. At the very least, I want to wipe the internal memory before sending it back (already got my replacement.)

Any suggestions? I can't get the drives to mount on a pc because I can't use the screen to enable it. I do have access to the phone via the usual command prompt terminal on windows so I can could run commands through that.
Any help is appreciated!

Plug it into a computer via usb and pull the data you want from it. Then right click on both drives with in windows and format them.

Wish I could but since I cannot enable the mounting of the drives on the phone because of the dead screen, I cannot access the folders. The phone is stuck in charge only mode.
