You could call a social worker or the police still and get a report put together. They might even be able to take the phone and pull the files from it, they ahve specialists to do that sort of thing... nto sure if htey would do it for a domestic violence case.
If you get areport done you might be able to get the locks changed and him out of the house if you wanted... not sure how you really wnat to handle this...
Don't worry about fighting with him for the phone it was nto expected he woudl do that.
What you CAn do if he tries again is tell him ahead of time "I sent copies to friends already so you are only deleting them off my phone, i can get copies back from tehm and have them on there again tomorrow morning...
If you think he might actually get direclty violent dont take the phone out anymore obviously...
