Sadly, last week my Droid Incredible got stuck in a reboot loop that I was unable to get it out of. At the time, I thought it was no big deal since most of my data (emails, contacts, voice messages) were stored safely in the cloud. I figured that if I tried a Factory Reset, it would only be a small pain to re-download the apps, and I might lose some data such as game scores. My phone had not been rooted (didn't think I needed to), and I went ahead with the Reset. Afterward I rooted the phone, made a backup of the freshly re-installed OS, and installed Cyanogenmod,
Skip forward to today. I took a few photos and while I was viewing them in the gallery, I noticed that none of my pre-Reset photos were there. Now I am at home and notice that my earlier photos are nowhere to be found. I always assumed they were being stored safely in the SD card and not in the Internal storage. However, I have just finished searching the SD card, the current Internal storage, and the post-Reset backup files. I am sadly realizing that the photos must have been previously stored on the phone's Internal memory (STUPID, HTC!!!) and are now lost forever. Is there any chance they may still be hiding out in an area I haven't though of, or is there any way to run diagnostic-type tools on the internal memory to try and recover the bits of lost photos? Most of them weren't all that important, but I would be so sad to lose many of them. Any help would be appreciated.
If they were on the SD Card and somehow got deleted you can try RecoverMyFiles to see if it will recover them.
Code:

Have used it many times in the past with great results.
Yep. I've used similar software to recover files from an SD card. But I'm fairly certain now that the files were being stored internally. I know this may be a lost cause, but I'm really hoping someone has figured out a solution.

Unless you changed the setting to store internally then no. By default it saves them to the SD. It is a known issue in just about every rom including stock that this happens one in a million times. Odds are you won't be able to recover. All I can say is to back them up on a PC regularly from now on. Doubt you will ever see that problem again, but you can never be too safe. I lost some great photos I took on my original Droid.
I had been searching and googling spending all night awake but couldnt find a "modest" way to restore the deleted files from internal memory of my ZL. I found threads asking the same thing and this one http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1994705 but its for galaxy phones, despite being for other phone I guess that process could work but its pretty difficult to me to understand all.
Is there a easiest way?
I had tried hexamob recovery, DiskDigger and others apps but it was a failure. I need to recover photo files, .txs, specific .xmls, ect. I need to recover smsbackup&restore files and notes files from colornote dating from 2011
Its 2014 and cant believe yet there is no easy way (those software like android file recovery, android data recovery, etc etc are useless since they cant detect phone´s internal memory.)

using my above method, you can recover your media files and i guess .xmls also,but no sms and no contact !
I could recover some of the files that I wanted thanks to a very old backup I found in my pc. It wasnt all the updated info I wanted but at least I recovered something. So I get what I got and already give up with that xP. Its a shame about the pictures because those are pics of a Filippa Giordano concert xP. My problem right know its I dont have time because Im taking school tests :/ but the info you gave me sounds good, in theory it may work. I know how to flash clockmood recovery in HTC but I guess is pretty much similar the process with Xperia, If I got time I´ll give it a try, thanks for this info and I hope ppl who are in the same problem could read this and give it a try.

I don’t know why you people are making it so complicated when we easily all the deleted data from the internal memory using Remo Recover Android. Give a try…

Quick question regarding the possibility of recovering deleted files...
Had a picture on my SD card gallery(where all my pictures are stored) that I wanted to delete, and I decided it would be brilliant to click and hold and delete the "one" picture, when in fact, I decided to delete the entire gallery, some 300+ pictures.
I've been through countless desktop recovery tools, nothing works as it can't "find" the phone, I've tried Dumpster and Undelete 2.0, neither of which worked on my SD card. I took the SD card out of the phone as soon as I realized what had happened, so I haven't done anything that would overwrite them..yet. When viewing the SD card through Windows Explorer, it still shows something like 450MB out of 9GB free, so that makes me believe they are still there, I just can't figure out how to get to them.
Is there ANY way that I can get these files back? I have Wicked_v10 as my ROM.
Please let me know either way so that I can either end this torture, or get the pictures back.
Thank you.
There is a root app called undelete. Not sure if it needs to already be on your phone before you deleted the file. But it may be handy next time

Than you for the suggestion, I will be sure to have a few extra apps next time. I already tried Undelete, but it scanned and then froze the app/phone, so I'm not sure that's an option.
Recently I "accidentally" formatted my phone thinking it wouldn't delete my pictures because before it never deleted the pictures and stuff but this time it did and i was wondering if it's possible to recover those data? Like pictures and stuff. Is it possible?

If your phone is rooted, then use DiskDigger app, available on play store. It can recover any kind of data from the phone Unless the data is overwritten.
no luck
Connect the phone to the PC and download a recovery program to your PC and recover the files as you would normally do with any USB stick or an SD card I've done it many times.
I won't tell you the name of the software or where to find here, but if you know about torrents you will manage it.
Hello Guys,
Phone Specs: Note 4 SM-910A Android 6.0.1
I'm felling kinda "not so smart" today, because by mistake I pressed the Trash icon when in the Gallery, just wanting to get rid of one image in a folder and quickly realized that preview was for the entire folder and not a simngle image thus the entire folder of 3000+ images and videos where deleted by mistake
I tried to stop it and it looked ok, nothing happened "seemly", but within a few mins all was gone.
The second not so smart thing is a lack of a current backup, as I don't seem to connect my phone to a computer like I used to, so it was out of sign out of mind. So my last backup was May of 2017.
Then using apps like DiskDigger shows me 13,000+ files, but most are junk from what I can see and I'm still missing what I wanted to keep / restore.
dr.fone and anything I could find seems like pure trash or at least for my phones version it has ZERO value. Also tried taking the MicroSD and using working USB converter(s)many computers will not even read it. So I will not reform it, or maybe all will be lost forever. It must be in some type of proprietary format, but I can read the card, :when it's in the phone" in the list under My Computer showing SAMSUNG-SM-N910A as a drive / device.
Also I'm not sure what to use that works like an Itunes type of backup, that will always backup even over WIFI, so this can never happen again. Are there any tricks to this that I'm missing, is there no file restore that indicates previous path and or deletion time and date.?
Thank guys for any help / direction you can offer.
Don't know about recovering your files but I use foldersync to backup my phone automatically at night when it's plugged in to the wall and on wifi, I set it so it backs up to my smb share. The app has several ways of doing backups and where to save backups
If u have Google photo sync enabled then ure stuff is backed up so check ure Google account first.
If not them there are 2 ways go about it from pc or straight from ure phone.
Install one of the hundred of free undelete/restore apps from playstore or Google on pc. And just let it scan ure SD card it will find all ure pics just don't save anything new to the SD card until I've recovered it or u will start to loose some data as new stuff overwrites the old. As for videos Ive had mix results so your milage may vary u may get some u may get no n e u may get all but unplayable.....who knows video files are more complex than pictures and documents.
