I smashed my Galaxy S4 about 2 years ago, put it away and forgot about it. Now my mom want's to have it fixed for herself. However, I don't what I was browsing when I smashed it. It could be full of incest porn for all I know. I don't want her to see it when she picks it up. What do?
>>
smash it moar
>>
you should have done a factory reset before throwing your autism tantrum.

All of the data will be there.

>i smashed my phone

lol fag

If it still powers on you go into ODIN 'download mode' and root the thing with TWRP, then wipe the device http://www.jihosoft.com/android-recovery/how-to-root-galaxy-s4.html

Otherwise just smash it more and throw it out, go on craigslist and buy a new phone. I bought a Nexus 5 "new" on Amazon for $140CAD that's $100 USD and if you don't have $100 you're a dumb kid who shouldn't be posting here and should get a job.

It won't turn on at all. And I already gave it to her, so she would notice if I smashed it any more
>>
>>60534033
Can't I just run a magnet through it or something?
>>
>>60534102
magnets has no effect on smartphones

therye smart that way

defeated magic magnets

no what you have to do is shoop the woop dasu dasu
>>
>>60534102
why not just remove the battery
>>
>>60534161
or better yet put it in water and break it more without her knowing
>>
>>60534173
salt water would be best water
>>
>>60534114
Don't make fun of me
>>60534161
What would that even achieve? She can always get a new one.

I guess I'll just try to be a good boy and volunteer to pick it up for her.
>>
>>60533951
say you found a way to fix it on 4chan. do what other guys said. say it didn't work. buy new phone on craigslist.

just dunk it while running in salt water then dry it off

drop it in the toilet bowl

if that wont work accidentally tie it to a bunch of baloons and let it be a space phone

>OP ties phone to balloons
>Mom asks why?
>OP: "I took advice from the internet"
>Phone travels 50miles westward
>Ends up in hands of police
>They turn on phone
>See OPs porn folder
>Arrest OP's dad.

>>60534473
microwave it on max for a second or two?
>>
>>60534591
If you want to ruin your microwave and likely start a fire sure.

It won't do shit to the data.

Who smashes a phone anyway instead of just factory reset, flashing with new ROM
>>
Put it under a strong magnet for a good 5 minutes.
>>
>>60534607
he could drink his own piss
>>
offer to fix it yourself
erase it while going to install lineage
>>
>>60534607
It was an accident
>>
>>60534637
I'm a brainlet, couldn't possibly do it myself
>>
>>60534659
xda
>>
>>60534659
perhaps offer to have it fixed, and give her the receipt to pay for it
alternatively, convince her it will be cheaper to buy a functional second hand phone (it may actually be)
>>
Tell her you have old messages or something on the phone you dont want her to read so you want to get to wipe the phone first. There is still a chance of suspicion here but merely being suspected is far superior to actually getting caught.
>>
>>60534736
It will be, it's like $100+ to replace a screen, and probably $100-200 for them to diagnose the dead power problem.

You can buy a 'refurbished' S4 on amazon for $90.
