there are softwares which can recover photos from internal storage using ADB. You may try them if memory is not overwritten till now. I've tried some once and recovered good amount of photos. Try finding these type of software on Google you will surely have some data recovered.

Recovery

Hi, all. Ok, so since my november I have been waiting for Z3 compact root and great news of recent.
Since november, I have only used my phone just to make calls, after a major balls up when I flashed a firmware via flashtool without backing up. And even though technically, it should not have not wiped my data, it did.
I had some very precious and sentimental wedding images and 3 4k videos on the internal memory. (didn't have a sd card at that time) So, did not want to overwrite any new data.
Today, after rooting, I could use undelete type software with root access to recover my images. After all the waiting non of the *Top* apps worked!! wth. So, disappointed, some of u may laugh.
Anybody got any suggestions please. Any quality pro style apps, like used for PC recovery. Recovery on a low level perhaps (if possible)
I tried diskdigger, undeleter, recuva, hexamob, wondershare.
Please, anybody
Thanks for reading

Sorry, but you won't get them back...
That's why I try to get pictures saved to my laptop as soon as I'm home, regardless of all this automatic cloud saving.
Edit:
And: saving to ext sd or finding an option in an app to do so first place.

Habit ?
Was in a similar situation when I had to put one of our dogs to final sleep. Very nice and emotional pictures, I lost them due to flashing the next or other days. The wife saved them with her own, real camera. That's what always reminds me to save important pictures.
Anybody else. I waited a long while to not use my phone after my mess up. There has got to be a way to retrieve data off my phone even if I have flashed it.
I'm sure forensic experts could find such images etc.
PC data can be recovered even after so many wipes, there must me someone here with some expertise?
Please can someone help?
i lost my data 2 days ago after using flashtool to flash a ROM,so now i put my data into sdcard
if you have no backup before,it is hardly find back your data

Thats too bad . But I see on TV shows all the time, using sophisticated software to recover data all the time. I'm sure this is possible somehow. My photo's are very very important to get back.
I always hear that PC HDD and phones people sell are very easy to find the data from.
People do not know that they are not always fully wiped.
Hook your phone up to your PC and try the several programs for the PC available for android internal storage restoration, just google a bit you will find tutorials and what not.
If you have not overwritten the files they might still be there. If you overwrote them i fear they are lost.

well,yes,PC data can find back easily,but if the data was covered by new data,it is hard to find back either on PC or phones
if your phone haven't cover new data,then i could say good luck to you and wish you find someway
I don't know if you can recover those files at home, but maybe guys like http://www.krollontrack.co.uk can do it.
It probably won't be cheap though.

Contacts disappearing and reappearing randomly

Hi guys. I am facing an issue with my AT&T Galaxy Note 3 , ever since I updated it to Android 5.0 . After the upgrade , everything was fine for a few days. The update was taken OTA. Since the past 2-4 days , I see that the contacts on my phone would , at random times , totally disappear. My contacts are synced with my google account , so I immediately went into the sync settings and see that "sync is facing an error" specifically with the contacts.
Restarting the device does no good. After a few hours the contacts would reappear on their own. I backed up the contacts to the internal sdcard as soon as they came back , and the file was saved in the usual .vcf format. When they disappeared again , I tried restoring them manually be reloading the vcf file and I get an error "failed to read vcard" . Surprisingly , when the contacts were back on their own , I tried restoring via vcf again and this time it worked fine.
I have also tried clearing the cache and data from the "contacts" app in the application manager , but nothing seems to work. This is an issue that I have never faced before and I am seeking help on this absurd issue. I am unable to figure out what could be causing this , so please help!

Not sure if it will work, but try deleting your Google account, wiping the caches and data for contacts, reboot, and add the account back. Back up with an app from play store first tho for safe keeping.
@pre4speed - I tried that as well. It worked immediately , and then the same issue appeared after a few hours

That sucks. I've never heard of this so I'm at a loss sorry
I am having the same problem. [5.0.1 At&t Note 4]
Did anyone find a solution?
Same probkem with Note3 running 5.0., tho a restart gets the contacts back...
I disabled the at&t messages app and it seems to have solved the problem, for now at least.
I have the same problem, too.
I have the same problem with my ACE 3. I checked my google account on the laptop and all my contacts are there, I exported them into a the laptop then copied the file to my SdCard; tried in so many ways to import it, and it just fails every time!!!! I am getting really frustrated of this! Rebooting changes nothing at all; I tried to clear cache and data for Contacts and Contacts storage apps (I am really afraid to regret this later on) but still nothing worked! Help guys!
I have the same issue on my Note Edge. I have tried factory reset and still no luck. I have found a rather crappy work around when they disappear.
1) Goto Application Manager under ALL and clear storage for the Google Contact Sync
2) End all Apps by pressing on the home key and selecting the little icon in the lower left and end all
3) Start contacts app and it will begin to resync the data.
I am experiencing the same issue. Samsung phone with T-Mobile service.

Accessing phone files without the touch screen?

Well it happened guys. Through some terrible luck, my phone dropped to the ground, shattering the screen and making the touch functions unusable. There are some photos on it from my vacation that I'd like to save, but when I connect it to the PC it doesn't recognize the device (Windows 10). I also can't unlock my phone since the touch screen doesn't work. So, is there any way I can at least back my photos up without using my phone's menu? Thanks for the help.
You can try using a USB mouse with an adaptor for micro USB. It worked on my Sony z1 when I broked my screen.

Make sure your photos aren't already backed up via Google Drive or Dropbox?
I know one friend who was worried, but ALL her smartphone pictures were auto backed up on Google Drive.
https://drive.google.com/drive/photos
Yes, Dropbox you have to configure, but apparently many phones are already configured to auto backup with Google Drive over Wi-Fi. At least hers was. Anyway, go to that URL and see...
I have mine auto-backup over Wi-Fi to both Dropbox and Google Drive.

EDIT:
As of beginning of August, Google Photos (separate app) took over for Google Drive Photos. So, all your pictures prior to the last six weeks may be at that URL above.

Can't back up my music files from the note 8 internal storage to Samsung cloud

Any help with this guys?I can back up all the files from my note 8 apart from the music.it just says preparing for around 1 hour then maybe gets to 1 percent sometimes then stays there then after another hour or so it faults can't back up files back up failed .I've done a cashe wipe for the cloud and Samsung. I've removed my account and done it again.
Nothing works. It's weird that Sammy cloud will back up everything apart from my music.im manually backing up btw
Any help would be great.i don't have a laptop anymore so I need to back up my phone and them reset it back we I'm have issues with something
I've tried these things so far
Solution 1: Back Up Samsung to Samsung Cloud with Wi-FI/Mobile Connection
Solution 2: Add Samsung Cloud Account Again
Solution 3: Clear Samsung Cloud Cache & Data
Solution 4: Update Samsung Cloud to Latest Version
Solution 5: Restart Your Samsung Device
None worked .My note 8 is ee uk
I have 15 gigs of cloud storage and 9 gigs of music I need to back up from the internal storage if that helps
Any help guys?
Come on there must be someone in this forum that knows about the note 8
I just manually backed up a music file. It was 5 mb. Try breaking it into smaller chunks and uploading it that way.
I tried. That still won't back up

It's probably a problem with your account on their end. If you search online for similar issues it seems common among people who use it often. You could use USB OTG and keep a physical copy, or Google drive.

How To Recover deleted holiday photos & Videos on my Samsung Galaxy Note 8.

I've somehow just deleted all my holiday photos on my Samsung Galaxy Note 8.
They were all stored in the phone memory.
I've read the only way to recover most of them is to use some sort of external software like EaseUS mobile software for android.
But for it to work my phone has to be rooted.
Looking at various root methods it gets confusing as they say it wipes your phones internal memory which will wipe all the photos if they are still there?
My Galaxy Note 8 is a SM-N950F build number NMF26X.N950FXXU3BRA9.
Most internet recovery software for purchase like DR Fone and Fonelab appear to be scams and I'm sceptical they will work.
Ay advice on recovery solutions would be most welcome.
Thanks in Advance.:crying:

Just wanted to mention.....I'm pretty sure by default the gallery app backs up pics to the cloud (when connected to wifi) if you never disabled this setting (i do) its possible your pics are backed up to your samsung account....
Sent from my God Mode 8
+1 for automatic backup from gallery or Google photos if you have that installed.
I'm not certain about file recovery on Android, however I do know you should refrain from using the storage if you plan on recovering data from it.
M curious how you deleted them in the first place? Try connecting phone to laptop and run recuva on the dcim/ camera folder. May work?

If he was rooted and Odin flashed a stock ROM, especially with CSC (as opposed to Home-CSC), it could wipe the internal storage.
I flashed home-CSC but kept getting bootlops so I had to do a factory reset from stock recovery, losing all my data.
The pain for me was realising Samsung Restore isn't on the same level as Titanium backup restore. I had to sign jinto ALL my apps again.
Try an app called diskdigger
Sort of fixed.
Thanks every body for your replies.
Not sure how I deleted them thought I was deleting one photo but it was a stinking hot day in Singapore 34 C (feels like 39 C) I was choked up with a bad head cold I picked up in Thailand via Vietnam, just not thinking properly. Things were bound to go wrong as the SD card died at the start of the trip that's why the photos ended up in the phone memory.
While I couldn't recover the full photos and videos without root, I did run disk digger and it recovered the thumbnails of the photos while they are at a smaller resolution of 960 x467 compared the original resolution of 5000 odd x 2000 odd its better than nothing.
I have resized them up a little bit they look Ok but not as great as the original definition would have been.
My wife no longer wants to kill me so all is well. Videos are lost but I can live with that.
One would think samsung would have a failsafe program where you could recover from the phone memory but that's obviously too hard for them to do these days as they push everyone to the cloud for more potential revenue.
Thanks everyone again.
U can download diskdigger or undeleter from the play store if your rooted

You're just 8 months too late. No big deal.
