It seems to me now there is no sense in doing something because getting bitcoin back is on the verge of reality. And if you made a mistake you did not correctly indicate one figure in your wallet so it's all a loss.

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 , your friend will not get it back. Treat it is a lesson and save all the information properly for future investments. Especially, in case of new coins which are cheap and thus you may become careless with precautions.

your bitcoin will not be restored to you especially if your friend loses the private key if you have a private key you can still recover your bitcoin.

i dont think its can be recover, yeah im also lost some wallets that i use several years ago. this technology is very safe and anonymous, you can look at the address that very complicated, its like a code you can't remember it with your head. and finally in fact, that this is the consequence when we forget and leave bitcoin some time ago, your old bitcoin account will not remember and leave you either. LMAO just move on dude, create a new one if you really interested with cryptocurrency life.

     So sad that he can't recover his bitcoin because he lost the private key. Private key is the very important to remember,if you lost it you will lost your wealth. It's shame he lost that coins which is very valuable at this moment since the year it was created. This will be a lesson for everyone here in crypto world that be careful with our password and private key because we are the only liable for it. We are the only care taker of our own wallet/wealth.

You can not get anything back because this system works without managers and other support.

your bitcoin can no longer be restored because your friend lost his or her private key if you did not lose your private key so you could still return your bitcoin to you.

This is one of the bitcoin problems. Often we criticize the fiat currency but such a problem could never happen with a sum deposited in a bank account or payment card.

It will be so hard to really retrieve that not unless your friend had the private key. This is the main reason why we should be having backup of keys to avoid problems like this. Bitcoin is anonymous in nature and there is no way of retrieving it using KYC option unlike in most online money transfers where they have a system. Unfortunately bitocoin is not this type so its a bit risky to lost millions in this example.

I'm sorry mate but there's no other way to open that wallet again. The private key is the main opener for every wallet whether it's ethereum or other cryptos. He should take care of it before.

He lost 0.58 so nothing major, he can still see the balance on the blockchain so he no doubt he'll be watching that balance grow in the future, he remembers it was worth around $110 at the time.

Wow, it was not major at the time you mentioned but with current rates it is about $6000 and I will not be surprised if it is worth $100000 in next 5 years. This can be really depressing for your friend. I suggest him to stop seeing the progress of that money as it will make him sad only. He should better start making new investments and watch them grow. He will not get much for $110 now but he can contribute each month and then all of it will add up.

I do not think there will be any way to recover your lost friends Bitcoin, maybe it is your friend's misfortune. this is a lesson for us, that we must save the privat key of our wallet, just in case of loss or our Smartphone is damaged.

It's the keys duty to open up your treasure chest (wallet). And if you lost the keys there's no way to open it for you mate. The only possible way to recover those bitcoins is when you had recovered the phone and check the private keys and restore your wallet.

Sadly, but no. The only option is to find and recover his old phone.. Maybe thanks to gps or the police.. Say it is stolen.. But i really doubt.
Never keep your pkey in just one place.

it seems to be difficult if you lose your wallet key, or private key, even if you know about passwords,key private is the key to open your wallet, this time it's time you can take lessons for the future to be more careful, and you can write key private in a regular book for you to back up.

No smart person will keep a secret key on the phone. If the phone is lost then the bitcoin wallet and you can forget additionally there is a probability that the one who has found this phone can easily take advantage of this code.If he of course knows about this.My advice is never to keep secret information on your phone

There is no way you can get your bitcoin on that wallet back unless you have the private key. Those keys are hardly encrypted. Try to check on cloud storage, other devices or emails. The fact that a wallet is made very secured because of those private keys.

with such a situation there is no hope anymore for the bitcoin to get back to us, we can only monitor kamana balances in the wallet so it is very important to be careful because we do not know what will happen in the future

Sorry, as far I know, it would be impossible to get your Bitcoins back.
