If you are using a SAMSUNG phone, it is recommended to try Android Data Recovery from recovery-android. You will recover texts from a phone with broken screen to PC within several easy steps.

Step 1 Launch the Program on Computer
Install and run the app on your computer, then click the "scan it" button next to "Recover data from broken phone" option at the bottom of the interface.


Step 2 Select Data Type
By default, all types of data will be selected. In order to save time, you can just check "Messages" item.


Step 3 Select Broken Types
Now there are two fault types of phone: touch screen broken and black screen. Then, you will be asked to select the name and model of your broken phone. If you are not sure the model of your Samsung phone, hit the "How to confirm the device model" to check it.


Step 4 Enter Download Mode
You can follow the guide displayed in the interface to get into "Download mode". Once you entered the "Download mode", the software will start downloading recovery package. When the downloading complete, the selected data item stored in the device will scanned out.


Step 5 Preview and Recover Messages
After scanning, you can preview the messages in detail, including the message content, sending and receiving times, as well as the contacts you chat to. Tick those you need and hit the "Recover" button at the lower-right corner.

I hope this will help you.

If your phone can be detected by PC, then you can download an android manager tool to solve the problem. See how to save text messages
