Iphone 4s DCIM folder showing as empty, screen is broken

I am trying to back up my Iphone 4s, so per usual i plug it into my computer on now the DCIM folder is showing as EMPTY.

My phone screen has also been broken recently so i am unable to unlock the screen. (that one piece of advise every other solution has is impossible in this case)
IS THERE ANY WAY TO SAVE THE INFORMATION ON MY PHONE?

iPhone 4S

I understand that you want to save the data on your iPhone and your display is broken. Here is some information that will walk you through manually backing up your data.


Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC
