Hacker to hack account

I have an old handset that I still legally own, but it no longer powers on properly and the screen is unusable. Inside it are important SMS text messages that I must retrieve for personal records.

What I need from you
• Diagnose the extent of the hardware damage remotely (or once you receive the device) and determine the safest extraction method—board-level work, JTAG, chip-off, or a software-based dump if the device can still boot.
• Bypass any locks or encryption, if necessary, so the full SMS database can be accessed.
• Deliver the recovered messages to me in a clear, searchable format such as CSV, XML, or SQLite, along with simple instructions so I can read them on my computer.

Acceptance criteria
1. Complete set of SMS messages, date- and number-stamped.
2. No corruption—random spot checks must match what I can still view in limited phone previews.
3. All hardware returned in the same state (or better, if you manage a partial repair).

I’m comfortable shipping the phone to you or following precise instructions if remote tooling (Oxygen, Cellebrite, dr.fone, etc.) could work. Please outline your preferred technique, estimated turnaround, and any confidentiality paperwork you usually provide.
