RE: My new smartphone - Xiaomi Redmi 12C (2025.08.11)

My previous smartphone, the Motorola Moto G22 is still functional (in terms of software, so the Android is still running on it), only its touchscreen is damaged in a way that the text on it is unreadable in most parts of the touchscreen, and the touchscreen is not working on most of its parts.

With a touchscreen replacement, the data on the smartphone certainly can be backed up.

This is 100%, because it is visible that the Android is still running on it in aeroplane mode (which I previously set to save battery charge), it shows the date/time, and the alarm is still ringing on it at 07:00 in the weekends, as previously I have set that too, and apparently even the Bluetooth can be turned on on it. The battery charging also works.

Maybe most (or all) of the data could be backed up by a PC/laptop with USB connection.

At least one of my friends have a laptop, but we have not tried it so far. Both of us are busy nowadays, and the electricity is also limited on this finca (it is not available in our small wood houses, only in the kitchen and in the office).

But probably soon we will try connecting my Motorola Moto G22 smartphone to a laptop to see if any backup is possible that way.
