Had in Rice for over 40 hours, it did nothing.

Usually the rice thing will not work if the battery is still in the phone and there's no real way to quickly disconnect the battery will be A51-5G

Go to youtube and search how to get data from a broken phone.

You'll probably have to take it to a local place to recover the data. Or contact Samsung directly and see what they can do for you.
