I just want a couple videos off the device, everything else is either backed up or recoverable. The device currently can:

  • Stay locked after a reboot

  • Unlock for about 30-45 seconds before restarting and displaying the recovery screen I attached.

  • Boot into recovery/rescue mode (kinda, it shows the android mascot with a red warning icon and the text “no command”, but I can’t seem to mount it in windows or Linux

Is there any chance at all that I could get files off the device?

    Tried this for myself real quick, I can’t get adb to open a shell due to SELinux, and adb ls /sdcard results in an empty directory, so looks like it is still protected.

    I think you might need someone with some more expertise on this to help you, sorry
