Help! Need to find my deleted data from Android!
I deleted photos from my Android phone by mistake, they are very important! Is there any way to get it back? Your help will be appreciated. Thanks!
The answer is YES. You can get them back with an Android file recovery program. Now, there are two solutions for your choice.
Note: If you're using Samsung devices, the first solution is recommended. For devices of other brands, you can adopt the second one.
Solution 1: Recover SMS, contacts, photos and video from Android with Wondershare Dr.Fone for Android
First of all, download Wondershare Dr.Fone for Android and install it on your computer.
Note: Please check your Android device model and the Android OS here before you perform the recovery. Not all Android devices are supported right now by Wondershare Dr.Fone for Android, unless you root your device first.
Wondershare Dr.Fone for Android allows you to directly scan your Android devices and recover messages, contacts, photos and video from them. Next, let's try it together.
Step1. Connect your Android device to the computer
Here, let's take a Samsung Android device as an example. Connect it to your computer, and run the program. Then you'll get the interface below.
You need to enable USB debugging on your Android phone. According to the Android OS version running on your device, choose a way to enable it.
1) For Android 2.3 or earlier: Enter "Settings" < Click "Applications" < Click "Development" < Check "USB debugging"
2) For Android 3.0 to 4.1: Enter "Settings" < Click "Developer options" < Check "USB debugging"
3) For Android 4.2 or newer: Enter "Settings" < Click "About Phone" < Tap "Build number" for several times until getting a note "You are under developer mode" < Back to "Settings" < Click "Developer options" < Check "USB debugging"
Step2. Scan your Android device for lost data
After enabling the USB debugging, you'll get the window as follows. Click "Start" to anaylize your device.
The analyzing process will consume you a few seconds. After that, an application - Superuser Request will pop up on your device's screen. Click "Allow" to let the scan continue. Then click "Start" on the program's window to scan your device.
Step3. Preview and recover contacts, messages, photos and video from Android
When the scan completes, you'll get a scan result below. You can preview SMS, contacts and photos scanned out. Choose those you need and click "Recover" to preserve them on your computer.
Solution 2: Recover photos, video and audio files from Android with Wondershare Photo Recovery

Wondershare Photo Recovery, or Wondershare Photo Recovery for Mac supports all common formats for your pictures and videos, as well as the recovery from more devices besides Android, such as hard drive, camera, camcorder, iPod, USB drive, other mobile phone, and more.
Here let's take the Windows version to perform the Android file recovery in details. Install and run it on your computer.
Step1. Choose Android for scan
Connect your Android phone or the card to the computer and make sure that your card can be detected. Then choose the card of your Android and begin to scan.
