A friend took a picture and decided to try and delete it. When he accessed the gallery app where the folders are shown (the pic he took was the thumbnail of the folder), he deleted the whole folder. Is there any way to retrieve deleted photos? I tried a google search but all of the programs i found such as Dr. Fone etc all require me to purchase the software itself. Is there any way i can retrieve these photos? My Samsung device is not rooted and i haven't ever used the google+ apps and so when i access my gmails etc the photos aren't in the bin. I had about 300+ very important photos

No it's impossible unless you are still running Android 4.2.2.
Every information about recovering files is outdated and cannot be used anymore.

I am running android 4.4.2, seeing as this is still kitkat is it possible on this version? Why or why not?
I don't know if they can be recovered if they were on the internal memory.

Because Android enabled Trim from 4.3+ and up.
Wow that sucks. Is there no way i can restore these pics and vids?
Edit: YAY i recovered the pictures by using the google play app "Diskdigger photo recover" app it's the only thing that worked after trying countless of countless of programs on my computer. Anyways the videos that have been recovered have turned into image files. Is there any way to convert them back to the videos they once were?

Hi all. I am wondering if it is possible to recover deleted photos from a non rooted S5? My co worker just came back from the Philipines and accidently deleted her photos before they had a chance to upload to Drop box over wifi. I have done a search on Google and most apps want you to pay to recover data. I know you can recover deleted data from a rooted phone. If I were to root her phone, would I lose all of her pictures that are already on there? Thanks to anyone who can give me any help or direction.
You need to root the phone, and just like any other activity that requires writes to the disk, it will utilize and write over empty space, which is where your deleted photos are part of now. But it shouldn't be too bad.
After trying many apps I really found Diskdigger undelete to be the most accurate and reliable app to recover deleted photos. It is free for .jpg but you will need to pay for other file types. Hope it helps
I'm on a Nexus 6P rooted and I use Asus File Manager app to keep pictures/videos etc. I accidentally deleted the wrong folder and now I'm wondering if there is a way to recover that. It doesn't seem to be built into the app itself. I deleted it a couple days ago and I haven't taken any pictures or added any files since.
No possibility to recover them. Deleted is deleted on Android.

You could try undeleter from the app store. I'm not sure if it needs to be downloaded before you actually delete a file but give it a try. There is also Dumpster which retains deleted files for as long as you want in the event you ever accidentally delete stuff.

That's completely incorrect. There are several data recovery tools online that can be used. Storage is storage, deletion only means that that space has been allocated to be written over, the data is still there until it is written over.

Completely false! I've recovered deleted numbers, photos, files etc many time. Undeleter Pro is my goto app for this. It's not free, but well worth it. Give it a shot.

Sorry, thats what I thought. Thanks for putting it right.
All my files were deleted after the reset (I didn't know this would erase the memory). Only if I can save the pictures. Diskdigger couldn't find any old photos. Most programs do not work because the device is not rooted in 870ds. Please how can I root or another recovery method?Very important, please.
Although my English is not very good I did a lot of research I could not find a solution. All I need is root permission for the H870DS. Hundreds of valuable photos I have been saving for years have been deleted ...
If you did a factory reset, they are gone for good. That's why it is always recommended that you do a backup before a reset.
Friends please There must be a way.
Did you use google photos as your photo viewer?

Hi,
My daughter have samsung galaxy a9. She acidentally deleted all her gallery including about 6000 photos and films
How can she recover it?
I tried following the thread:
"Recover Accidentally Deleted Files, Photos, Music after Rom Install by bullriders" with some help, however, the program does not recognize any files which are not included in a driver. (ie, "phone" is not "driver C, D... " etc)
What can I do?
Thanks,
Stamstam

Is it dangerous to root the device? How do I do it? Can I unroot it later? If I installed diskdigger on the phone itself, does it mean that I lost some photos due to taking up disk space? Did I lose all of them?

Is there a way to unlock the bootloader on the LG K20 Plus without wiping the device? Our brother passed away and he saved his final pics to his Google Pictures app. We don't have access to his Google account. We can access the pics on the device, but can't save them to the memory card or transfer to PC. Apparently, the folder Google stores to is protected. I thought of unlocking the bootloader and rooting, but from what I've read, this wipes the device and we will lose the pics.
We're just trying to get the last few pics of him for our own memories. Any and all help is greatly appreciated.
Yes unlocking bootloader requires a command which will erase all data. And assuming the device is unmodified with original stock ROM and not rooted, it's very likely encrypted so even if you managed to load up twrp via fastboot without running the boot unlock command (which erases all phone data) and create a backup of the phone's /data mount, you'd wouldn't be able to copy and paste on a similar bootloader unlocked phone.
As for Google Photos, you say you have access to the device and the pictures. Which means the account is still logged in on the phone and you can work within the Google Photos app to send or share any picture and album link o another contact, let's say you, which you can then access on your phone or PC and save. It may be arduous and require doing screenshots of each photo in full screen but given your circumstances it may be worth it. I wasn't aware of Google Photos encrypting the storage directory for pictures. If the pics are on the device they should be able to transfer easily if they're internal storage. Otherwise Google Photos likely has backed them so up to the cloud and deleted original copies off the phone. But still if you can access the phone and the Photos app without needing to sign in to Google, then just add all the pics to a new album and share the album link to any trusted contacts who can then go through the pics and save a copy.
Thank you
We've been hesitant to connect the phone to WiFi for fear of auto deletion, since we don't know what his settings are in the app. It's arduous, but screenshots it is. Once we get all of the screenshots saved, we'll connect to WiFi and see if the phone is still logged in. We might get luck and find more pics for our family.
Thank you again. My bro and I were at this for hours trying everything we could think of to transfer the thumbnails to SD as well as the PC for mom.
