Wiping content from a phone with damaged screen.

Wiping content from a phone with damaged screen.

My screen is cracked and unfortunately I'm unable to unlock, or access my phone. I'm getting a replacement phone from my insurance but would have liked to have wiped some information from my damaged phone prior to returning it, e.g. online banking, emails, ebay, etc.

Is there a way I can do this?

You can use MyXperia or Android device manager

as long as your phone is 

on

gps on

wifi or data on

your gmail is still on the phone 

or you can use PCC

PC Companion (PCC)

Bridge (for Mac)

Will this affect the sim card, as I still need to use it?

Not at all, nor the Sd card.
