Default Broke my screen, can't find my MicroSD-USB adapter

Can anyone tell me if there's a way to manually boot the phone in USB disk mode? I just need to copy my SD card onto my computer, and the screen's broken, so no blind fumbling by memory to try and get it there the normal route.

RAWR (thanks for even looking at the thread if somebody does!!)

I don't know how to do exactly what you're asking. There may be a way. As an alternative, though, you could consider getting a micro-sd adaptor. They're quite cheap on Amazon, or you might ask around and find a friend that has one.

Thank you for the reply; I figured as much.

Do you or anyone else know if there is a way to wipe a Fascinate externally without use of the screen? Because, you know, the broken thingy...

Thanks again

Is this the wrong forum for this question? If not, I would like to be able to wipe my phone before I get it replaced.

Just follow the directions in droidstyles guide for how to Odin back to stock. You don't need to use the screen to Odin back to stock. As far as pulling the files off your SD card, why not just go get a card reader and copy them onto your computer. I am guessing you have already done all your reading and tried this, in which case the answer is no then.

The phone is already stock. I don't need to wipe a rom, just apps, contacts and personal info (factory reset I guess you would call it). I could just destroy the phone and keep the internal flash, but that seems like too much work and no replacement.
