It seems it is possible on flash memory, see here.
Depends where the photo were saved.....main memory or memory card? there are many programs available that can recover *deleted* files from memory cards. I can recommend tis one: "Zero Assumption Recovery" which allows you to recover only 4 files per run in the trial version but completely recover all files for the full version. If you have more than 4 files to recover then u have to re run the program everytime after recovering the last 4 files but it still works. I have used this program to recover a complete 8GB memorycard after it crashed.
Deleted Photo Recovery
Recovery of deleted photos depends on few factors such as the storage media that is in use, and the time that has passed after the photo loss has occurred. If overwriting has not taken place, then is definitely possible, as there are innumerable number of photo recovery utilities available online.
You can download the software using the link given below,
recoverdeletedphoto.net
i don't get it
Try Kernel for FAT and NTFS data recovery software which can efficiently and instantly recovers all your pics on a single mouse click.

Well, it's a general idea but i would backup the phone rom to a file on your hard disk and then would try a program called photorec on that file.
A FreeWare Recovery Program
freedatarecoverysoftware.net
Free Data Recovery Software can get your lost data back and recover files and folders that previously deleted.
Features:
Securely recovers deleted content from NTFS, FAT or FAT32 partitions.
Retains folder structure where possible in an organized matter.
Uses a familiar explorer like interface for easy overview and retrieval of lost data.
Fast. Recovery information's are retrieved per user action.
High data recovery success rate. Compare the data retrieval success with most commercial programs - in most cases the percentage of data recovered is actually higher with FDRS. Why pay then?
Very easy to use. Click to scan drive, find lost file, click to recover them.
Free Data Recovery Software is portable. That means it does not require installation, there is only one stand alone executable (.exe) that can be run from removable drives, CD or DVD drives, memory cards, flash memory etc.
FDRC cost nothing, it is free and it will remain free.
Success,

recover and backup
i can recommend data recover wizard to recover the deleted photos. it can recover photos, files, videos...
backing up your photo is the safest way to protect them. some tool can be backup them to a image file. when disaster comes you can recover it from image file.
there are so many backup tool on the market. i used free one todo backup to backup them.
I have used best digital media recovery tool to recover lost digital data from my memory card.This tool recovers data from hard disks, iPods, external USB drives efficiently. You can estimate recovery chances of the tool when you download demo version that allows to preview recovered data before saving it.
Well most of the times i have recovered my lost images with the help of a photo recovery application, no matter what digital device it was stored into. With the help of a effective and easy to use UI it have become simple for the user to recover their images and other files as well.
Hi...
You can recover deleted photos by using "Remo Recover (Windows) - Media" Edition software. I have done photo file recovery from memory card when I deleted JPEG files accidentally and this software works excellently. This software supports to recover all types of photos. So you can download this software from internet and start to recover deleted photos.
The data in the memory card can get corrupted or damaged due to accidental deletion, frequent disk formats, software virus and many others. When memory card corrupts, data stored inside it becomes completely inaccessible and users cannot search the required result. For this, memory card recovery algorithms should be used.
Deleted Photo recovery is not a very big task. Recovery is possible but for the same you have to take help of third party photo recovery (Recupero Foto) software. There are several software available in the market, you can choose anyone of them. However before making any choice it is highly advisable to check the demo version of that particular software. This will give idea about it.

I know before I start that this is a dumb question, but are there any utilities for Android/Galaxy S for Data Recovery?
I have just had a difficult time flashing a new ROM, and at the end of it the system has been wiped, including all data on the internal SD card, in the past when flashing new ROMs only the internal memory was affected, but like I said, this time I had a few issues.
What I'm most concerned about are my photos and videos, I know in a Windows environment recovery tools work well, I'm just hoping Android is the same, but I think I'm wrong.

I have seen it suggested that once you can mount the internal SD to your PC, you can use the same tools you would use to recover data from any SD card. I can't confirm that however.
I would imagine that the main problem will be having data overwritten when you installed the new ROM. However, you can't lose anything by trying.
I try to save all such things on the external SD as much as possible, out of fear of just this sort of issue. Also it is a good idea to backup to your PC or to Dropbox any pictures or videos on your phone you couldn't bear to lose if someone swipes your phone...or if the SD is formatted.
Google Recuva and try what you can recover .
But wipe means wipe even under windows .

Thanks guys, I did try a standard windows based data recovery on the mounted SD, which found a lot of data, however I am unable to locate my photos and videos.
I can find a lot of the photos by searching for jpegs, however all the ones I retriever are very small, much smaller than the original resolution. I'm starting to wonder where the full size images are stored and if they are stored as jpgs.
Seems odd that I can find the small image files but not the originals, the smalls ones are between 40 and 100kb each.
any more ideas?

This is a strange question, but are you SURE the photos themselves were stored on the internal SD? I often store things on the external card and forget I set it up that way. You may want to check through all the folders on the external SD and see what is hiding there.

so, here's the thing, some kind of fa**ot took his SDcard and inserted it in my phone ( he said he couldn't format his SDcard on his phone), clicked storage, and clicked Format SD Card. I just found it out and i'm desperate, there is nothing on my phone, everything is gone, i don't need the photos or videos, or music(photos and videos are backed up on Dropbox, music is synced from iTunes)... i had other imporant projects and files that i worked at on this phone... is there anyway to recover them?
I wouldn't started this thread, but didn't find any real solutions
btw, i'm on AOKP b36
I think that would take some very specialized software.
It's a long shot, but try Recuva from Piriform software. You'll need to install it on your PC, but if you hook up your phone via USB, it might be able to scan and find your stuff. Hopefully there hasn't been too many overwrites since then.

+1 Try not to create any new files on your SD card until you do that. Also, beware of recovery utilities that show all your missing files, but then require you to buy it to actually recover them. The one he mentioned should be good though.
One of my friend (!) accidentally deleted all of my camera roll photos from my Lumia 720
I tried to recover them with some File Recovery Software but as Windows Phone 8 connects via MTP, not via USB Mass Storage, the recovery can't be done
I googled the fact and noticed some forum with data recovery method, but only for android. If the Phone is rooted, you can make a dump (or something, i don't actually know what that is) of the entire phone and then mount that in a drive, making you enable to recover files from that.
Is there any process for Windows Phone 8 ?
I am seriously in need to recover those photos.

take the SD card out and perform the usual recovery methods with a card reader.
There's no SD card
The photos were in Phone Memory, that's why I mentioned it connects via MTP

recover data
Have you overwritten your lost data? If so, then the chance to recover is slim, if not, then, you can get a professional Data Recovery
cumeeting: That would probably require disassembling the phone. Not practical unless these photos are ludicrously valuable.
If you have your Windows Phone Connector software set to sync then they might still be in your My pictures folder on your comptuer, worth taking a look.
Can you take a dump of your 720? Then using whatever can you use a utility to find it inside the vhd or whatever the dump is in. That's if it had a 1:1 transfer mode that captures the whole device including the stuff that was deleted. Besides that, no one has driver level access (except MS and the OEMs) on the device to make an app to restore the pictures from the device.
It's work if you try to recover files using recuva
I am soory I don't know much about Windows phone but I know Myjad iTunes Backup Extractor for iOS and Android Data Recovery.
Maybe you can go to that website to check if they have developed a new product for Win phone.

Once you have deleted photos from iPhone you cannot restore directly from iPhone. What you can do is to recover them with a third-party progrm like data recovery software. Another condition is that you should have an iTunes backup otherwise you won't get any of your lost photos back.
Try Myjad iTunes Backup Extractor, it is a powerful software specially designed for iTunes backup file recovery which enables you to extract and recover lost or deleted photos, videos, contacts, SMS/MMS, call records, voicememos, calendars, notes and Safari bookmarks from unreadble (.sqlitedb) file.

Have you actually recovered files from the WINDOWS PHONE 8 (which OP is owner of - Lumia 720), not windows phone 7?
Not the memory card in the phone, but from the internal phone memory?
Could you share?
The guide you point to describes recovering files from memory card or WP7. The guide gives false hopes for WP8 owners, because WP8 cannot be seen as a drive on the PC.

Sorry, didn't notice it was old thread. My bad.
I'm hoping someone can help me.
My wife has a Note 8 (N950U) and she accidentally deleted her entire camera folder. I thought she was backing up to GPhotos but she wasn't. She had no cloud back up, and the photos were saved to internal memory not an SD. She has some photos that she is desperate to try to recover (including the last photos of her mother before she passed away). I'm fairly technically savvy, but I haven't messed under the hood of Android before. From what I've read, the only way to try to recover deleted files in this scenario is to be able to run a utility like DiskDigger as root (and I'm aware that there is only a small chance that the photos can be recovered).
So I think I need to root the phone and I don't plan to leave it rooted, just need to root it long enough to run the recovery utility and then put it back.
I see there is the SamFAIL method to root but... do I understand correctly that it will only work on Android 7? (her phone is on Oreo firmware version N950USQS5CRID)
So I read that if you are on Oreo and want to use SamFAIL, you could downgrade to Nougat first and then follow the SamFAIL process. But I have had zero success with getting a downgrade to work. Is this a possible path or does the firmware loaded on this phone completely prevent any process to get to root?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks
No root for Snapdragon Oreo and you can't downgrade. And do check this Q&A section, threads like this already exist.
Once you upgrade to any firmware version that has a higher bootloader version, you can never go back to anything with a lower bootloader, even if it is the same (nougatt,, oreo) so,, any oreo firmware will always have higher bootloader versions than a nougatt one, besides,, once you root, samsung pay and secure folder will be gone forever,, there is no way to get them back, no workaround, no trick,, nothing will do
Try running Data Recovery software on it. If she has written over the sectors, which contain the photo's data then you won't be able to recover it.

Would that be possible even without root? I thought root would be required for recovery to work.

You don't need root access. If you connect the device to a computer and run the recovery software via that. You should be able to recover all the deleted data from your device that way. Using a data recovery app on your device requires root access.

Its not possible to recover photos from android internal storage by using any kind of methods. There are various reasons for this.
The internal storage is encrypted and no third party software knows about the process. Even TWRP cant mount the storage with encryption.
The MTP protocol prohibits windows recovery tools to access the internal storage directly.
By now, the physical area might have been overwritten and data would have been lost already.
Sorry, but still, i suggest you to go to files, turn on show hidden files, navigate to dcim/.thumbnail. there might be some photos available either in internal or sdcard.
Good luck.

Firstly, rooting the device you will need to format the internal storage, anyway, to get rid of the encryption, so doing that your wife will lose everything on her device, anyway. This includes apps, music, videos, and anything else she might have on it. It's like doing a factory reset. So that wouldn't have helped your cause.
Second, apps like DiskDigger doesn't actually recover anything, either. I tried it before when I lost some photos. All it does is scour your device for thumbnails of images. Some apps save low resolution thumbnails, some save slightly higher resolution, but even if it finds thumbnails of the images you want to recover, it'll never be the same quality as the original ones. This is from my own experience of using this app and one or two others like it.
Thirdly, flash memory works a little different to hard drives and Android also works different to Windows. When you delete something off flash memory, it doesn't necessarily just mark the file as deleted or keep remnants or something, like Windows does. You can test this yourself by copying something onto an SD card, then deleting it and sticking the SD card in a computer or laptop and running data recovery software on that. Chances are high it won't pick up the deleted content.
Sadly, like sandeepkumar0153 said, your best and likely only bet is to look in the thumbnails directory to see if there's thumbnails of the images, but be prepared that those images will be very low resolution. It might really be worth it.
My advice is to make peace with what happened and start getting into the habit up backing up important files like that. I've lost many, many photos and other stuff due to the same issues or situations where I couldn't boot the device and had to do factory resets. It's sad and painful, but it happens.
