My screen got a dead pixel line on the right side after a little drop

Hey. So recently my google pixel 5 got a dead pixel line on the right side after a little tiny drop my accident while putting away some stuff. I had a case and screen protector on and now this happens. This is the 2nd time I have to either get it repair for 200 bucks to someone or get a new phone (currently typing on my old iPhone X from 2018). I can’t do that because I have some stuff still on my google pixel 5 and my phone isn’t in good shape, straight up not straight at all looked bent and a dead pixel and line on it. what makes it worse is that since I had this the right side is untapped and unresponsive and even if I try to get in my passcode it still didn’t let me press enter or a 6. Here’s the vid and the photos. I’m not sure what to do because I have some stuff stored in including google authentication which I’m not sure if it was linked to my gmail at all. Any ideas?

With most Android phones, you can use an On-The-Go adapter to be able to plug in a computer mouse to the device. Once the mouse is attached, you can use the mouse pointer to back up your photos to Google Drive or similar.

Oh my, I have heard of that but I never tried those on the go adapters. Where can I get those exactly what were you talking about. I have to know

Are there any possibility that it could also work on google pixel 5 as well?

My 6 Pro is quite happy with a cheap AliExpress USB-A to USB-C adapter. Here's the adapter.

Plugged in to a standard Logitech wired mouse.

And a cursor appears on the lock screen.

I remember when I first got to see the google pixel 5 and when I open the next one, it had a usb a to usb c connector in the box for transfer stuff, is it possible to use this?

@brunotram Definitely worth a try; no reason it shouldn't work.
