How do I access my android files using ADB from recovery mode?

Tags:

adb

boot

My android (Realme GT2) has entered a bootloop, just showing the startup Realme logo, turning off and repeating. Entering recovery mode and selecting Reboot does not fix the issue. I am trying to avoid simply wiping the data so I have setup ADB with universal drivers and I am trying to transfer some files to my PC before wiping the device.

Because I cannot turn on developer mode on the device because I cannot get beyond the startup screen, I cannot get the ADB to recognise my device.

Is there any way access the files from here?

I tried using the Android SDK Tools at this link: https://www.xda-developers.com/install-adb-windows-macos-linux/

With the universal drivers from here: https://adb.clockworkmod.com/

I was hoping to have the device available to work with using the ADB despite only having access to recovery mode but have had no luck.

Try 1: Boot your device into recovery mode, then check if there is any option to enable debugging mode (This option was based on device OEM)

Try 2: Boot your device into fastboot mode (This option was based on device OEM), then check with fastboot devices command, eventhough fastboot was different from recovery mode, there is a chance that PC may detect your device in fastboot mode.

If none of these worked, then no other solution left other then wipe, at least for my knowledge.
