    Basically I have a motorola flip phone with verizon service and I broke the screen off (the top part of the phone) so there is a ribbon that is severed. Is there any way to fix this or at least get the numbers off of it so I don't loose the numbers because I don't have a way of getting them back very easily. Thanks.

    Will the keypad light up when turned on? If so, mobile phone tools may get them off for you

    Yes the keypad lights up..I reattached the top part (it has a push in button that lets you put it back on) but it still won't show up as I guessed it wouldn't...

    Where can I get "mobile phone tools"?

    Ok well as I edited before I already have the cable...now my only question is how do I get the driver for my phone? I checked motorola site but I'm completely lost...

    edit : I got the driver but the bitPim program will not work....it's apparently not compatible with my phone so what should I use? I can't use verizon my account either because the temporary password requires you to receive a text and seeing as my screen won't work thats impossible for me..
