so my samsung s6 active died yesterday, and id like to reclaim my files from it. so this is a two part question, is it better to remove the chip or not, if it is easier to remove it where is it and how do you connect it to get back the data
You’re going to need a specialist to remove the chip and recover the data, it’s not like a microSD card you can just pop out and into another device. It didn’t even have a MicroSD expansion slot but check out iPad Rehab. They specialize in microsoldering and data recovery.
