I have a OnePlus One that went dead 7 years ago with valuable photos (for me) on it. Had it repaired recently, but can't remember the pattern I used back then... Here is what I found out about the software and status of the phone:
- Android 6 with Cyanogenmod (probably version 13, maybe earlier)
- USB debugging disabled
- bootloader is locked
- not rooted
- no TWRP installed
I can get the phone in fastboot mode or in Recovery Mode. The options in recovery mode are:
- Reboot system
- Apply update
- Factory Reset
- Reboot recovery
- Reboot to bootloader
- View recovery logs
All solutions I found while researching was deleting/editing a file that contains the pattern. But that would need a phone with a custom recovery, which I can't install without wiping the phone.
I have a second OPO that was my brother's old phone, which I can use as a testbed to not lose all my data on the other one. One thing I tried with the second phone was to do a hard reset, root it and try to recover data that was deleted by the reset via a recovery software. Using Fonepaw was no success, but maybe there are different, better programs out there?
