I believe there is no way of retrieving any lost bitcoin of you don't have any access to their keys. In short your friends bitcoin is lost forever. Always store keys in safe places where you can have access all the time and please always have backup keys for safety and emergency purposes. You may not know when you gonna need them.

A friend of mine had some Bitcoin on his phone a couple of years ago and he's lost that phone which stored the private keys on without any other backup. We can see his balance on the blockchain and he knows his password for the private keys. Is there a way of creating the private key from the bitcoin address and the known password?
no, private wallet key is the only access to your wallet.
without a private key, your wallet password doesn't work at all.

Since the private keys are on the phone which he lost then the bitcoin is gone forever as you cannot hack an account .

Of course not. If you lose the key to entering a Bitcoin wallet, then you lose your Bitcoin forever.

So from that, keep your wallet and key in a safe place. If necessary, do a gradual backup.

You asked if you could get your Bitcoin back. I do not understand what you mean. If you store Bitcoin in your electronic wallet but lose your password, you can find the password, but it will be very difficult and time consuming. If you have lost your electronic wallet from a hacker or someone, that means you can not get your Bitcoin back. Xin chin sad with you.

I don't quite understand what you mean by "he knows his password for the private key".
May I ask the wallet he uses!

Without private key its not possible to open the wallet in other phone or laptop even if you have password, the only way is if phone recovered and it was not reset to factory settings, it is always recommended to write private key on paper or store it a h/w wallet or somewhere you can access it anytime, good luck.

It is impossible to recover your bitcoin without privet key because it is more than a safe zone and you must recover that phone to recover your coin.

That is the more reason we are always advice to store our private keys in a safe place such as creating a hardware copy of the security keys in that case being very hard to be misplaced and easily accessible when emergency arrive. I have a friend who also lost a lot of bitcoin due to lose of security keys.

You can find out the wallet address if you have a private key but on the contrary it's impossible. If you can find a cellphone or backup either on your computer or on a cloud storage account. You can recover your funds through that method. Make sure you can maintain a safe backup of your cellphone wallet to avoid such conditions in the future. Cool
This is what must be used as a lesson and experience of course, to be able to always maintain and make a backup key of our wallet to avoid things like this, because when we lose the key or forget and lose our cellphone, of course it will be difficult for us to get our assets again.
well, this can only be used as learning for the future. I was convinced that it was very difficult to restore, and even I had never heard of anyone ever taking back the BTC he had when he lost his private key.

you need to be very careful when operating your wallet as far as cryptocurrecy is concern,your private key is like your ATM password and when you lost it,you lost access to your account and money,there is no way you will be able to get it back,your bitcoin are gone and you should learn from this lesson that whenever you lost your phone and private key you lost your bitcoin

Can't, your friend must be willing to lose the bitcoin he has forever. The private key is the most important and keep it in the safest place.

Sorry to say, but you've lost your Bitcoin. Be careful the next time. Only possibility of getting back your bitcoin is for someone to found your private key which is very important and nothing else.

I'm afraid the only way to recover Bitcoins from and address is by the private key itself. If the password you're referring to is of an exchange app, I suggest contacting the app/company about it so that they can give you the private key or the Bitcoins.
