Another option might be too mount an SD card in recovery, then backup from
there.
I've lost a few notes from memory corrupting...
Otherwise I'd try testdisk for recovery.

Yes, you can likely connect with a usb cable to a computer and use a
utility to get your stuff off of it.

It's an old Note 3.  I got in that mode, I think it's the recovery, and did
a "cache reset," but that did not fix it.  The other option was a full
reset, but I did not want to do that.

Does anybody know if either Kies or Odin/Heimdall can do something?  I
haven't used either one.

Respectfully,

this phenomena, but I was wandering if anybody has experience with this and
has some better suggestions than what's out there.  I need to recover some
data from the phone so I cannot just try and reset it.  Any help would be
appreciated.  Thanks.
