Xiaomi Redmi Note 5: Smartphone bent by falling. Need to get access to its data

Mon, 01 May 2023 18:44:54 -0700

Hi,
had my redmi note 5 in my backpocket when falling. Thus it is bent between battery and mainboard. Display, clearly, is broken and is not showing anything.

As there it relevant data on it (pictures of pregnancy and birth of my daughter) I really like to get access to the internal memory to read out the pictures.

To get access, I tried connecting it via USB to my computer (windows 10). Device Manger showed it as QUSB_BULK device. Drivers could not be found.
When for test, I checked another Windows 10 computer, QUSB_BULK driver where found it windows was able to install them at least. Now, it shows up as "Qualcom HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM3)".

Can anyone give hints how to continue and how I can get access to the memory?
Or if it is not possible via USB and which alternatives I can check?

Thank you in advance.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 5: volume and power button not working

Tue, 02 Jul 2024 18:48:29 -0700

my volume buttons and power button look good, but they are not working. I feel it empty when I try to press those buttons just like hallow inside and sometimes when I press them hard for multiple times, they do work rarely.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 5: Xiaomi Redmi Note - Led Blinking // Trying the Impossible...

Thu, 10 Aug 2023 19:25:34 -0700

Hi everyone! New member here!

I've a Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 for like 6 years and last weekend I dropped it into the bathtub ?‍♀️?‍♀️

I already looked up on forums and yes, the most easy and responsible thing to do probably is to take the phone to a professional tech service but 3rd world problems it's nearly expensive as buying a new phone. Also I like (not in this cases) to mess up with tech and learn new things.

So this is my status:

My phone didn't die as soon it touched the water; it died when the battery went dry (Yes, after I dropped into water I also forgot to charge it?)
When I plug the charger the led blinks for a minute (I've already tried to left the phone plugged for several hours)
When I plug the USB cable to a PC it makes noise so i think the charger-PIN is working correctly (?)
I've already tried power button and volume -/+ for entering recovery mode but nothing happens

I've seen on a diffent forum that a workaround was to dissamble the phone, unplug the battery, then plug the charger (without the battery) and then plug the battery while the charger is connected;

a really important thing is that in this answer on the forum, the guy says:

"When you plug the charger without the batter connected; the screen should turn on with the MI logo: BUT THIS IS NOT HAPPENING WITH MY PHONE.

So, this could be a sign that my module/motherboard is the problem? And it is not a drainned-battery-case-scenario?
