Partition/disk problem - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey guys,
I want to restore some lost files of my xperia z with easeus data recovery, however it doesnt detect the phone because its listed as xperia Z in explorer and when u open it u see 2 disks, internal storage and SD storage. But because its packed inside the head xperia z it cant be detected by the third party software.. any idea how to just show internal storage and SD as stand alone disks?

You can root the phone if you haven't done so already and use the app undelete to recover lost files.
Or you can mount the phone in mass storage mode from the settings in xperia then usb connectivity.

Mounting in mass storage only displays my SD card, which i dont want to recover files from.
I really need the internal storage to be shown without it being wrapped up in the header 'Xperia Z' so it can be detected by the recovery 3rd party software i have on my PC. My phone is already rooted by the way.. and the app undelete only supports external SD cards.. which is exactly what i dont need ..

Use another file recovery program, some support right clicking in a folder to recover files. For example back2life by grandutils

not true .. installed it, it also works by disk detection, did not detect phone..

If you want to mount a certain part as a disk try android commander.
Press thanks if I have helped you

It may be difficult since I doubt MTP will allow recovery tools to function properly, plus, the device doesn't let you mount internal storage in mass storage for obvious reasons.

It didn't help, some other ideas?
For me there was only one Solution that really worked. Unfortunatelly i cant remember its exact name. So i ll try to describe it.
There are two almost the same tools. First one is testdisk and the another ones name i am not sure. So try google testdisk for (recover,undelete) sd card or so, then google how to use it. It is a commandprompt-like tool, but quite simple to use.
Hope i helped sorry for my english.
I highly recommend testdisk.
Use easy recovery professional

The best file recovery program 4 windows:
iCare data recovery
Sgn : Is it important how did i send this?
huhhh
maybe you can try this

So

install get data back
and try it!
100% work on my Formatted Hardisk 500GB!
If ur using Windows, u can use Recuva.
Mount SDcard when connecting ur X8...select the Music option in recuva..select your sdcard as location to search and u'll have ur music back.
Try Recuva

Same problem here, but I'm able to remove any file with Root Explorer. Try it, it might work for you.

You need to be root for having writing permissions on the erternal SDCard.
But that's how it supposed to work with Android 4.4.2, google removed this permission...

Unmount and then use a card reader on PC? Not sure if you're trying to delete from a inaccessible partition.

Use file commander
Use the stock app file commander. starting from kitkat, any 3rd party file explorer/manager will not have permission to write on sdcard. only stock system app like the file commander have write access to sdcard

Right, also you can just connect your phone in USB in MSC (mass storage) mode and remove yourself what you don't want anymore, it's what i actually do.

root your z1 and install recovery, so you will have the chance for a full backup, and when you restore, everything will be as it was before

1. You need to root your phone first,
2. Once your phone is rooted, then you can have a custom recovery partition on your phone.

sony phones do not have RECOVERY option buit in, you have to install it like a patch. but to be able to do it, you must have extra rights to modify your phone system files and this process is called rooting. rooting method depends on phone model, software version of your phone etc. I advice you to search or google for xperia z1 lollipop 5.02 (or 5.1.1) rooting, then, you can add recovery using http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2261606
if you want to have a rooted firmware, you can prepare it by yourself too by following http://forum.xda-developers.com/crossdevice-dev/sony/tool-prfcreator-easily-create-pre-t2859904

Format your microSD as "internal memory" (adopted storage), this feature available on Android OS starts from Marshmallow. When your microSD have been formatted as adopted storage phone automatically offer you to transfer data on SD card. Wait for transfer complete. Now all data, including app data, that can be moved will be store on your MicroSD, all feauture data (if it possible) will be stored on your SD card too. The only drawback of adopted storage - you can't use this microSD on any other device, only in this phone (!) (because if formatted as ext4 partition and it's crypted), and if you do hard reset a phone - all your data on SD can become inaccessible.
Thanks bro . Maybe i need to buy a 32 gb sd first . I have a 16 gb now.
Question : if i have picture or music on the sd is the same .. i cant copy to another Phone ...

If you format your SD as adopted storage (internal memory), you will be able to tranfer music, photos and other data to PC - just by connected phone with SD insterted to it. I was trying to say that if you extracted this SD from phone - it will not read in any other devices, except this phone. To access data on this is SD it must be inserted in phone in which it formatted.

Data on SD is crypted, you can't to anything with is without phone in which this SD is formatted. It makes no difference - have you root or not. To access data on adopted storage - you'll need phone.
