The phone is not unlocked, photos were in internal memory, I tried a few softwares inc. recuva, but all failed to see beyond the photos that are already there, no trace of the deleted ones, any help ???
http://www.leawo.com/knowledge/recover-deleted-photo-videos-from-htc-one-x.html Here , try this one . Looks promising :good:
In case you are using a Mac, there is an app called R-Studio that helped me recover some files from a corrupted sd card a while back. There are all kinds of software that do this job for Windows as well, just search around some forums to see which one actually helped people and give them a try - you will find a few free or open-source.
You can recover deleted photos from HTC One X phone, see this solution that helped me before: android phone photo recovery
hope that it helps you too.

Flash CWM, boot into CWM, mount usb storage then use Recuva to recover photos, tested...
If u see the photos corrupted in recuva it is impossible to get them back.
Hope That Helps
If you are rooted try diskdigger

It didn't erase the sdcard on the two phones I tried it, only /data. Although they do say you should be prepared to be left with nothing.
That being said, your best bet would be connecting it to a pc in usb mass storage mode, which is not available on the stock rom, and running some recovery software on it.
Mine was wiped 100%.......
Mine wasn't wiped 100%. Just /data was deleted for me.

Hello all, concerned that I've messed up my phone after using the Galaxy Note 2 Toolkit 3.0.0] and using 2-2-2 for my N7100 (JRO03C.N7100XXALIJ) on Vodafone UK.
Upon reset from ODIN flash (whch showed pass) my phone no longer has IMEI number, ERI, etc. thus no longer able to make calls and the like. Storage on the device also looks totally b0rked; currently showing 359mb used by applications in storage options and 0.00B total space. Looking bad in Windows too;
So far I've tried a factory reset via *2767*3855#, which resulted in stock apps being installed but still the same storage problems and no IMEI, 2-6 stock flash in the Toolkit and a re-root via 2-2-2. I don't wish to do any more damage so leaving it there until someone can advise me on how to get my phone working again. At this stage I'm not caring if it's rooted or unrooted just no longer an expensive and small web browser.
If anyone can help it'd be most appreciated.

Efi? Not sure what you mean by that but no, I don't think so. I have the IMEI number and that's about it.
Just noticed that the thread title has gone AWOL too, not my day!
Anyone have any ideas? Really need to get it fixed. :crying:
So you don't have an efs backup.
Did you even read anything before rooting. It clearly says to make an efs backup.
From what you have written you don't have one and it's unique to your phone so nothing can be done about it.
Reset counter and flash stock rom.

Yes I did, the sticky thread said nothing about an efs backup before rooting? Neither did the video. Would it be possible to use the guide from here and root with stoxk rom at same time?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1896696
The stock Vodafone uk rom from that thread appears to have a different build number, would that be ok? Maybe that was the problem in the first place?
Yes you can flash any rom from thread you mentioned, as well can follow same thread post#2 to root, if you had follow that, i have advised in red colour 'first thing to do after rooting is efs backup'
Alternatively look this too

Thanks for the replies, flashed stock rom and rooted staying well clear of the toolkit and everything went well. Should have done it manually in the first place haha.
Got a chance to make a EFS backup too. Happy days.

I will try to make this short and sweet...
"backed up" phone prior to letting Kies update my phone.
apparently everything but my photos/videos was backed up. (stupid me for not double checking that AND the version it was updating to)
updated phone. phone is pretty much useless now. (EVERY SINGLE APP freezes and crashes eventually)
wont connect VIA USB... knows it is connected and so does the computer. computer now refuses to install (it tries) anything involving MTP. all other drivers are installed. Kies can see the device.. tell me how many photos... but by the time I try to transfer anything Kies or the USB app on the phone freezes and crashes.
ive tried everything under the sun that is basic. uninstall drivers.. uninstall kies... reinstall things.. reboot. safe mode... USB debugging.. etc. NOTHING will get my computer to pull the files or the phone to stop crashing the programs.
I NEED to get these photographs from the phone.. there are at least 2k of them.
what are some options I have or things I could try?
and DO NOT say factory reset.. thats not an option until I get desperate.. do that and try some recovery software for photos.
thanks for any help. I have about a week or so to figure this out... so I can return this stupid galaxy express I had to buy just to have a functional phone.
Have you tried using a micro SD card and transfer your photos internally via a file manager app.

do you have a suggested app? and is this possible without going into the gallery cause that I cant even open... just freezes and fails
Why dont u just make a nandroid backup and wipe. Then flash the latest stock rom through odin. If that fixes the issue of freezing apps and your mtp problem you can restore the backup and should be straight.

Edit: also are you familiar with adb? You could boot to recovery and pull the photos with adb from there. And how much space is free on internal storage? The issues your experiencing sounds typical of full internal storage

you have to break that down a bit... only time I have to work on this is coming off of 12 hour shifts and im not too functional lol
there is space on internal I think about a gig or so left. the phone did NOT have issues prior to updating to 4.1. ALL problems started after 4.1.

Well to me it sounds like some issue was caused in the upgrade. Are you currently using a custom recovery? I ask because I have a feeling a factory reset will be your fix and with a custom recovery you could backup then wipe so you can troubleshoot w/o losing everything
And in the future once u fix this I recommend Dropbox which will automatically backup all those pictures so u dont have to worry about losing them again. Regardless of what you want to do to fix it we should be able to pull the pics even with mtp being borked

You could try rooting your phone and flashing a recovery. After that, go into the recovery and fix permissions. This won't delete anything and it's worth a shot.

no the phone has nothing special installed. looked into the custom recovery... and its not going to work (at least I dont think) cause I dont have a solid USB connection... as in it does "connect" per se. the phone knows its connected... the computer knows its connected but it doesnt show up as a drive like it used to.
In download mode, you shouldn't have problems like that.

Hi all,
i have a problem: yesterday i realized that all the photos i made with the camera are disappeared, both from gallery and from DCIM folder that's empty.
All the other pictures (screenshot, whatsapp, bluetooth) are still there.
Unfortunately i didn't make a backup so i lost so many things.... :crying:
My Nexus is not rooted, it's exactly like Google made it.
Please help me....
How could this happen?
What can i do?
Try connecting the phone to a PC and see if the photos are there.

I already tried, but it's all empty from PC too....
Please, give me some clue, i really don't know what can i do....
All the data recovery software i found around require root for work with GNex because it doesn't support USB Mass Storage Mode....
But for having the root i have to unlock the bootloader and this would wipe forever all the data i want to recover.
Is there a solution?
I was thinking to use this procedure to unlock bootloader, and then have root, without wiping everything:
Unlock bootloader on GT-I9250 without wipe and without root
Can it work for my problem?
Is there some risk?
I updated it on 12/09/2013 and I can only see pictures back until that point and not before! I noticed it too late..
Man I tried every thing I could. ****, I downloaded the entire internal memory and converted it to VHD so I could run Recuva but still most of the recovered files are in huge zips and cant open them with any 7zip/winrar type of software. I downloaded other picture apps and they dont see it either. The SD card has it's stuff still there so thats not a problem.
I have been told its because the first roll out of 4.3 was bad and some people had issues. I want to able to downgrade to 4.1.1 but for some reason most of the methods out there are for people who have a non-stock 4.3 OS and not the OTA update.
Can anyone help me? I really want those pictures/videos back!
So, how can I go back to 4.1.1? It might be my last chance to get it right. I have Clockwork recovery and tried to put on the stock tmobile OS but it always fails via Odin and Rom manager. Phone still works. please help!

I tried everything. I do believe it's gone at this point. I recovered a few pictures that were half cut off with a professional recovery sw. Freaking terrible. Lost so much stuff. Never again I suppose :/

Take a quick look in data/media/0 or data/media/legacy
Easy way to tell instead of looking thru all your folders.
Is the space still taken? If yes, then it's there somewhere, if not, then they are most probably done for.

My sister asked me for help and has a galaxy nexus 4 g. She really only cares about recovering photos ( she never backed up ) from her phone and not so much bringing it back to life. The phone will not boot anymore. It is stock, unrooted and still locked. I can still get into stock recovery and phone still charges. When I plug into pc it won't recognize the device and I'm sure she never turned on usb debugging. If I factory reset it will wipe my sister's photos. I am asking for guidance or basic plan on how to extract her photos or get the phone to boot up normally without wiping. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Well it sound like a Soft-brick. I don't think that there are any other options to recover from this kind of problem without wiping everything off, at least none that I know of. Wait for few more replies or go to a GSM service and maybe they can help you. If not, just get the Nexus Factory Images and try to flash them. If the photos are located on the "SD card" partition, a wipe of the data won't delete them, as wiping data from recovery has nothing to do with the "SD". Another thing you can try is to wipe cache. If none of the methods from above work I am sorry but you will have to get rid of the photos.
PS: Tell your sister to use Google Photos, as every photo is backed up in their servers and she won't lose them
Hope I helped

Thanks for the response. After spending a few hours trying to figure it out for her ( My sister is not to tech savvy ) she logged into her new phone good news all of her pictures showed up which means she backed them up without knowing it.
