I have a non responsive touch screen. Can I recover my data?

I purchased my Nexus 4 during the first Wave. I received my phone a day before I left on a tour across the country. Mid way through the tour, the device slipped out of my pocket on to the floor. It was it's first fall, and it was a fatal one. There is a large crack across the screen, and the screen doesn't respond to any touch input. The display still works fine though. But the glass seems to be pressed to close as I can see the liquid crystal move a bit when I try to use it. I did not have the device in USB Mass Storage mode and I had yet to unlock the bootloader. After numerous calls to both google and LG...they claim they can do nothing for me in terms of recovering the data.

"same as my case:

-use a Bluetooth keyboard to navigate to Setting and Backup & Reset.

-use USB cable to copy your photos to your PC.

-use AdroidLost app via Google Play on your chrome for additional needs."

This looks like your best bet, if after thoroughly reading any instructions there and nothing helps you, try posting a question in the q&a for the Nexus 4.

"When you find you lose data, the first thing you need to do is stop using your device immediately. Why? In fact, these deleted files are just become unseen, you can still get them back before they are overwritten. Then you need to find a professional third party LG Nexus 5 data recovery tool to recover lost data from Google Nexus 5/4.

Here is the best Google Nexus data recovery tool for you, which is called FonePaw Android Data Recovery. The program is specially designed for you to recover lost data including contacts, messages, photos, video, audio and documents on Google Nexus 5/4."
