mtp to mass storage

Go to solution Solved by Mug,

With the USB OTG adapter that may've came in the phone's box, you can attach a USB mouse and control the phone using that.

 

You can also install Xperia Bridge (Mac) or PC Companion (PC) for easy backing up of photos and other stuff.

Hello guys (and girls),

 

My sister has a problem with her phone (sony experia Z), her screen cracked and with as a result that the touch does not work anymore.

She asked me to recover her photos and videos which are stored on the Internal memory.

When I plug the phone into my PC, it connects through mtp and does not show anything.

 

Is there anyway to switch the connecting mode from mtp to Mass storage from my pc? 

The one who finds the answer will get a digital biscuit ;)

Sorry for the way to late response, but I didn't have time recently. Your suggestion for using a USB mouse did the trick. I enabled auto backup to Google Drive and got everything on the new phone without any problems. Thanks!
