Wondering if anyone has a way (without root) of recovering an accidentally deleted video. Not sure why my fingers and brain were not in sync this morning but deleted a video I would really like to have. Tried a bunch of Google results but no joy yet. Thanks in advance!

You could try diskdigger for both the PC and the one in the app store. There was one I use to use on my PC that was able to recover photos I deleted months beforehand, I can't remember what it was called unfortunately, but it would allow searching of connected devices. Best of luck!
Appreciate it! I did try disk digger apk from the playstore, but only showed me photos and not even one's I deleted, no videos at all. I'll give the pc version a try though thank you

No luck says phone has to be rooted to recover videos and it won't recognize my phone as a drive anyways. Smh never did this before

Okay, so that application I was thinking of was "Disk Drill", by clever files. It may be able to recover the video if it wasn't too long ago!

I accidentally formatted my galaxy tab 10.1 and lost all of my pictures and videos
Is there any way of getting them back?

It's probably safe to say that all of your files are indeed gone, unfortunately.
This is why backing up is so crucial. Now, unless you've made a recent nandroid or had some sort of app installed that automatically backs up your photos/videos/media what have you (dropbox, Google photos etc), then you can retrieve those files.
But if not, then just take this as a lesson and learn from it.

Rooting is not do difficult, you want to search for your specific device model. Then you could use an app like

If this project was so important to you why didn't you back it up off of the phone somewhere? Dropbox or the free 50GB Box account most got with the Nexus 4 come to mind. I'm not sure if a full nandroid backup includes the contents of the sdcard on the nexus 4 but that might be a place to start looking, that is if you ever bothered to do a full backup of your phone.
You can get your files back, the same thing happened to me, my pocket somehow formatted my sdcard. Look for software that recovers deleted files

XDA also encourages users to search for answers before asking for help. This place is for learning new things and expanding current knowledge. People won't really learn if they're spoon fed what they want to know.

Boy do you have it wrong. XDA is not a place to come and get help. IT is not a support site. This is a developers site. You are EXPECTED to put in the time and effort to fix your own issues first. Then spend some time searching. (and do search outside your own devices forum) Then you try some things you have seen. If that doesnt work then you can post a thread but dont expect a solution.

So you mean the software like PC Inspector or Recuva or any other file recovering software will not work on our Nexus 4..??

I haven't tested such software, and I could be wrong, but when you connect (most) newer Android devices to a computer, you get access to the files via MTP. You don't have direct access to the filesystem (which I think is ext4), and because of this, you can't do the "advanced" stuff needed for file recovery (I guess checking sectors, free space, and etc.)
Older (and some newer) Android devices when hooked to a computer let you do USB Mass Storage (essentially the same kind of access you have when you plug a flash drive in), which is giving you direct access to the file system (FAT32), and in-theory, should work fine with file recovery software.
so can we mount the nexus 4 as fat32 or ext4? because on mine it just shows up in device section with no name
Ok so I tried deleting something .-. And well I wasn't paying attention and i deleted a whole album of my pictures and these pictures are when I first went to see my girlfriend for the first time to canada. And I just want to know if theres anyway recovering them back? ._.

IF they were on your external SD you can use a recover app like recuva or similar to attempt to recovery them. JUST don't write ANYTHING to it till you've attempted a few recoveries.
Can also use testdisk and photrec on linux
You can always just break up if not. Might be easier software way..
Good luck.

Have you had any luck recovering those deleted photos?
I had success useing "disk digger" it recovered 2500 photos. (accidentally deleted a album) roughly 650 of them were corrupted but it was still a success most of them were salvaged.
Sent from my SPH-L720 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I used Sandisk RescuePro and it worked great for a microSD card. The key to recovering lost photos is to not shoot any more pics or format i.e. the less you write to the card the better your chances of recovery.
For things stored on your phone, try Disk Digger that 'Menance_69' mentioned or checkout Undelete For Root Users (as the name implies it's only for rooted devices). Hope this helps.
Re: Lost pictures help please
See, now a days so many data recovery tools are available on internet to help you out from this kind of situation. Some days ago I found one tool named as Remo Recover and it fascinated me with its qualities.

congrats, man! one thing you could do, too, is get a free dropbox account, and install the app. it will automatically backup all your photos onto your dropbox account as you take pictures. definitely saved me more times than i can count.
for other people's reference, there's also an app called DiskDigger that you can run from your phone that does the same thing as programs mentioned in other posts.

That was my first thought, so I did order a new one...but now trying to get them back.

Try testdisk, it's worked for me plenty of times on failing SD cards & hard drives:

Remove the card from the phone, put into an adapter & plug into your computer, then run testdisk & follow the prompts.

The apps are blocked. You can't install them at all I've tried. Unless someone makes a modification to the app or device OS sprint users will be sol. I also want the stock music, gallery and email from lg. I got ten bucks towards a pot if any of you would like to start a small bounty.

There is a possibility that all of you have already tried this but... I could do a backup of the apk and post it. Then download it and see whether they work with your variant or not. (i mean, it worth a try, right? Let me know.
One is the music app and the other is the widget i believe. These ones are from T-mobile's variant, Nevertheless, it is worth a try

Alright. I checked all the files on my pc using some tools to check for corruption and they pass the test. Which means that,,,, Your carriers are being b**chy. Perhaps the signatures of the apps are different, that's why it takes it as corrupted files. Then again, im barely starting to learn programming and all that, but i have been digging around on XDA since 2014 LOL. Anyway people, I WISH YOU THE BEST LUCK TO FIND THE WAY TO GET WHAT YOU WANT! :good:
Yes I did all of this day one. I quickly realized that the carriers hands were all up in it. Hopefully there will be a way eventually to get the stock apps.

By the way, have you noticed that no matter how you do the back up of the app, there is always a file with a format (systag)? that never happened to me with samsung galaxy s or notes devices. Then again, that file is only showing the apkpath as if it were presenting the file.
I believe the issue is happening because you can't sideload the apps, maybe placing them in system/app but for that we need root.
I may be wrong..
Ive tried several different ways. Even using an app to restore it.. Its a no go. Maybe because its a tmobile app and they use some kind of special security code that prevents other varients. But kbrn post above might be right... Might need to go in the system/ and require root...
same issue and im on att. kind of funny since this phone is marketed toward the audiophiles. play music does decently though
You'll probably have the same result, but here's 3 music APKs from my rooted T-Mobile V20.
If someone could get the gallery to work I imagine it's possible for the music app as well... I hope.
