Damaged iPhone 5s Motherboard

while trying to replace my phones screen in a misdiagnosed problem I damaged the connection between the battery and the motherboard . I would replace the parts but there is personal data and photos that I would like to retrieve if possible. My iCloud photo backup wasn’t set up. I hope that’s all the detail necessary.

Data recovery from damaged iPhone 6S motherboard During a repair on my second hand iPhone 6S, by a reputable company, the technician damaged the motherboard. Apparently, it is irreparable. They have finally agreed to replace the motherboard, but there was critical data on the phone that had not yet been backed up. Please point me in the right direction to recover data from a damaged motherboard. I believe if certain chips are undamaged that it is possible. TIA.

Lost data from repair hello, yesterday I had my screen repaired at Apple Highpoint and I was unable to back up my phone prior due to insufficient space on my laptop. They did warn me that my data could be lost and it was as my phone was damaged and replaced. I was just wondering if there was any way I could possibly retrieve some of the photos? I had some extremely sentimental ones on there. Even possibly taking my laptop into Apple and importing the photos ? I’m happy to pay a cost to have the phone repaired to a point I can just get the photos off. If this is possible or you have any other suggestions, it would be so greatly appreciated. ThanksMadi

Sorry. Your phone is completely unsupportable. Apple won't touch it now that you've tampered with it.

Find a 3rd party repair shop and see if they can help you.
