I have a family member, whose phone screen broke, and they want to get their data off it. Developer tools are not enabled, so i fear I can't do anything with ADB, so i guess a hub is my best option (I have been meaning to buy one for myself anyway)

Having googled for a bit i noticed that i need something that is OTG compatible, but none of the hubs seem to mention anything OTG related.

Thank you in advance.

edit: the phone is an OnePlus, will ask what yhe model is

edit2: OnePlus 6

    Options look to be very limited for this phone. The USB-C port is 2.0, allowing for things like flash drives, but not hubs and no video out. I’m assuming your *.eu instance means you are based in Europe. Looks like a replacement screen can be had for ~€20-30. If the data is that important, if you can get the phone disassembled enough to plug in the new screen, you could get the data off of it that way. If you feel confident, you could get the mobile working again. Beware that aftermarket screens may be more fragile than OEM.
