I've broken the glass of my LG G2. Touch is not working. Although I can still connect the phone via USB and see its contents. I want to extract contacts and copy them to my new Android phone.

The phone is not rooted.

Yes, I had sync with my gmail account, but for some reason many contacts where not synced.

Is there anything I could do?

    Although touch is not working, can you read the screen? If yes, then does you device support OTG? If true, then buy an OTG cable and use a standard mouse with it and install a contacts backup app from Play Store to make backup of your contacts. ( adb can't backup the contacts.)

You will not be able to access the contacts data on an unrooted phone using a file explorer.

You may be able to use "LG PC Suite" to control and manage the phone from your PC.

As a final option, have you thought of having the phone repaired? Lots of glass replacement businesses out there. Many will fix while you wait.
