hi all, I am planning to buy a Huawei mate 20 X and thought you all will be able to help to clear my doubts. As I know there are ways to get the personal data back even after a factory reset. I have read and tried data recovery softwares to recover files from SD card. As I know, in apple devices, if you factory resets, there is no way of getting your old data back without backups from icloud or itunes. That is a very good option if you are selling your used device so no one can take your personal data. I am planning to sell my device also after some time to upgrade. Is there a way to delete everything permanently in the mobile (factory reset) which no one can recover again? Even after a factory reset, i heard there are 3rd party softwares for Andriod based devices to recover data without any backups. I am a samsung user and planning to move to Mate 20 X. Please help me. Thank you in advance.

I do remember that I have done a backup before the factory reset. But when I wanna find the photos on my computer a week later, I failed.
So I wonder if I can recover from the N3 so I tried some programs , but seems no photo can be recovered.
Anybody here know some other ways?
Well, as you've mentioned, related programs would be the easiest way to get data back. Here is an article tells you how to recover data from oppo on mac. You can check it out.
I know I can do a factory reset on the phone itself, but can I do a factory reset just like you could on an iPhone (you know, download the software and restore it on your phone)?
Also, are there any risks of rooting it? I'm kind of new here so just bear with me.

To factory reset, go into setting, storage, and factory reset. After that, your phone should be the same as the first time you installed what ever rom you're using. As for root goes, the biggest dilemma I know of is whether or not to void the warranty. So if the device is already gone past the warranty coverage time, then go ahead, get towelroot.apk and root that sucker. It's easy and fast..
It's looking more and more like I'll be unable to recover this phone with recordings intact. I'd like to know if anyone has had any luck using lost data recovery apps that I'm seeing on the web that claim to be able to recover data after a factory wipe. I've recovered data from a hard drive before so I guess it may also be possible with a phone. Has anyone been successful doing this?

It depends on the time you want to spent on this and there is no guarantee at all.
Most importantly you have to stop using your device as every second android is running it may overwrite the data you deleted.
Once overwritten you're lost. Well there are companies may restoring even those but this is also a very expensive journey.
Then the next question is do you have twrp installed or not?
You definitively need a rooted device and besides that twrp would be the best starting point to avoid more data loss.
Then you would dump your data/media partition with dd then copy that image over to your pc and starting data rescue on that image.
I've never used that before but there is a send command tool when the device is in download mode. This way you should be able to backup even without root..

I am new to the phone scene but I am wanting to reformat it and start fresh. What are the common things I need to do before doing the reformat/reset ? I have a plain Jane Verizon HTC M9 phone. It has not been rooted or anything of that nature as of yet.. I am wanting to do a complete phone wipe or disk wipe on a pc and then reinstall everything for my phone has become very sluggish in the past few months. I have ran several good phone cleaners and none have seemed to help so I figure why not do a factory reset.
What do I need to make sure I backup before proceeding with the reset?
What are the appropriate or best procedure of doing a factory reset before and after ?
What if any Apps are there I can use to assist in pre factory reset that will help with backing up all important files?
Are there any tutorials that I can read to help in performing a factory reset?
I figure I need to learn the basics of the phone as well as get a new phone so when I root my HTC M9, I wont be without a phone in case something goes wrong..
Thanks in advance for any and all info.
I have a fair amount of experience with computers not a newbie skill level but not an advanced skill level by any means either.
Nothing for resetting phones??
