    Hi folks, i have a closed Sony Xperia M5 and i can't open it because all buttons are broken. I tried Sony Companion but useless because it suggest using volume buttons. Phone can charge (charging screen is coming and showing %) and no problem even if the screen is cracked, completely working just i can't open it :(

    My question is; do you know any software for open the phone with only usb connection? or any other way?

    The problem is probably solved by now... one way or the other...

    I had the same problem with an ASUS tablet and found that the tiny wiring from the switches to the motherboard was simply cracked.
    ASUS informed me that the repair cost was almost the price of the new tablet. I assume the other companies have the same pricing policy.

    I actually found a used almost identical ASUS tablet, and replaced that little wiring taken from there. Takes less than 2 minutes, if you have the part....
