No, everything is on that board.

Price of a new board is pretty much the same as a whole phone.

Dear friend,

i would highly recommend to backup your contacts and photos before replacing you Motherboard for your phone, i am not really sure, if your information will stay intact upon replacing your MB= Motherboard on your device. Remember that Motherboards made be same but chips might have a different programming where your data is not readable. all your information are old MB chip and to be honest i have not done backup on a dead screen .

Good Luck my friend

I’d love to copy my photos and contacts but the phone is dark due to the bad motherboard. Does anyone know if my old contacts and photos were stored on this defunct motherboard. I don’t want to shoulder a costly repair to find out they are lost already. help?
