Sd card file recovery apps ?

Hi guys, I'm looking for an application that would analyse my external sd card in order to recover deleted pictures.
Does any knows one running on android ?
Thanks

I've used test disk in the past and its worked really well for recovering files and photo's, there is a seperate app just for photos
Called photo rec. I didn't need to use it as testdisk did the job - take a look http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/PhotoRec

You can also try Disk Digger from the Play store.

Storage of videos bought on play store

Just throwing this out there. I'm running cyanogen mod, when I pur have a movie or TV show it downloads it to my SD card', which is almost full now, how can I get it to download to internal storage ( where its showing I have over 3 gigs of space left )?

No responses ? Either its impossible or I am missing the obvious

Depending on what ROM you're running there may be an option to switch storage either from within the ROM or by flashing a script. Try searching for "switch storage"

Says my SD card is full . I do have a 16 gig from an older fone. Is it difficult swapping out SD cards ?

Probably bad sdcard. There are many topics on same issue.
The best solution is to get a replacement.
If you have sandisk card then read more here.

Have you tried mounting it on the PC? Use a separate card reader and try formatting it using disk management.

Am I screwed it's a integral one
Sent from my GT-I9505 using xda app-developers app

Yeah sounds like it's dead. In my opinion integral are cheap and nasty so Sandisk or Kingston would be a better choice

Assuming you're lucky enough not to get a fake. Over in UK even Amazon themselves has been sending out fakes.

Some people also suggesting that,
keep your card in freezer for 3-4 hours or overnight.
And it will work again. no harm in trying.

Yes. There is an amazing free app called "Vaulty" that does just that. Really good app

You can also use the one i'm using from Playstore Called: Hide pictures - KeepSafe Vault

But isn't it stored in the phone memory? All my videos take up so much space...

Just put an empty file named .nomedia in a folder. No images in that folder will show up in gallery.

What I'm also trying to do is have a back-up on my external SD card without it appearing in the gallery

Right use the app i said and once you hide it will not show no more in gallery same with videos if you use the app from Playstore.

I get it now.... Thank you everyone for your help and patience...
