Rooting without oem unlocking and without resetting the phone - Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers

Hello,
Is there a way to root galaxy note 9 north american model with latest updates installed without resetting the phone and without oem unlocking?
I am trying to recover accidently deleted photos from camera folder which I didnt sync anywhere, they are not in trash folder. I tried many data recovery apps but I couldnt recover deleted photos from camera folder.
Now I am trying to root the phone so I can give root access data recovery apps for deeper recovery.
Any help would be really appreciated. I hope I can recover those photoes.

[Q] Data Recovery (no root)

Hi All,
So I've come to these forums a bunch seeing new rooting methods and just generally interested in androids in general but I'm having an issue that I can't seem to find addressed anywhere or at least I'm having no success currently getting this to work. So one of my clients has a verizon moto maxx running 4.4.4 kitkat. He used the phone to take a bunch of photo's and video of a trip he went on and when he was trying to move the data onto his computer he accidentally deleted it. Now the phone is a corporate phone, given to him by our company, so rooting isn't really an option and even if it was his bootloader isn't unlocked so I'd have to unlock it which would reformat the phone anyway. So I was wondering if anyone here has any suggestions on how I could recover his data which is very important to him without rooting and\or a root work around that I can do without unlocking the bootloader.
Thanks all you're my best hope,
Ber

Technically, the only the international versions of this device are called the "Moto Maxx", the Verizon versions are called the "Droid Turbo". There are no root or bootloader unlock methods available for the Turbo.
He might be able to recover the data, depending on how he deleted it and what's he done since deleting it. If he hit a delete all button or something, then he might be good. That only really deletes the "hooks" to that data and makes the storage space the data exists on available to write on, because that's a lot faster than actually deleting all of the data. The only way the data really gets deleted is once that storage space is overwritten with new data.
There's no way of knowing if the data is still there to be recovered, and you need to use 3rd party software to do so. My friend has used this service before with success: http://www.wondershare.net/ad/dr-fo...geK_vorCLp-HKwHo11cOy-LBrNS29vKP50aAoOg8P8HAQ
I've never personally used it, nor do I know if it costs anything. It doesn't appear to, but I haven't installed it.
Try using Puran File Recovery. I've used it in the past when i've accidently deleted a file off my phone. I believe it's free to use.
@joshm.1219
I used Dr. Fone and it said the phone was not a serviceable model. It still said it could recover the data but required the phone to be rooted since it wasn't a normal model for it. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Hi there, I am a huge noob (as in I just started trying to retrieve my sms messages today) and am hoping Puran can help me... After trying to root my phone for a long time I found out that Android Maxx 4.4.4 can't be. So now I'm looking at recovery options that don't require the phone to be rooted. I downloaded Puran to my computer, but can't figure out how to run it on my phone. So I also tried to download it on my phone, but the file won't open.... How have you run it on your phone in the past? I am beyond desperate to recover these texts and any help you can provide will be HUGELY appreciated.

Need to recover deleted files - NO ROOT

I mistakenly did a factory reset and I need to recover files. My device is not rooted and cannot be rooted (G925VVRU2OAF1), and the recovery tools I've come across while searching the forums require root to work fully. This also renders DiskDigger and Undelete useless to me. Is there ANY WAY possible for me to recover my files? Or I'm done for without root?
Hi
Here is your post(I mistakenly did a factory reset and I need to recover files.

and answer is given below
Many reasons may cause the data loss, such as, mistakenly tapping the “Delete” button when you are exploring the new features of S6.Thats why you should avoid the deleted button. The available backups is far enough to avoid data loss. To get back you can follow this link and i hope you will get your answer(http://www.jihosoft.com/android-recovery/galaxy-s6-data-recovery.html )
I feel like im in the twilight zone and there's all these body snatchers trying to make me pay 50 dollars to recover a ten minute video.
I'm in the same boat as OP. Was in Maintenance Mode and forgot that menu is select and not power. Also on OF1.
I've tried more things than I can count. My solutions thus far has been to just wait until somebody discovers a root method. Preferably something to bypass the locked bootloader altogether but...meh.
In the meantime, my S6 gathers dust as I don't want to chance overwriting anything.
Try some recovery professional app.
My wife's phone is in the similar boat.
Word from the wise- 1) turn OFF the "factory reset after 15 failed screen unlock attempts" security feature, or 2) NEVER let a young relative handle your phone when it's been locked.
My wife had already maxed out her backup storage, so there's a couple months worth of pics that are in danger of being forever lost if she dares use the memory.
And it's been updated to 6.0.1, so root options seem to be nil at this time. So frustrating.

Undelete Files from SM-G920A

I have an AT&T Samsung S6 phone. When it was doing an OTA update it ended up locking up and then it blanked itself and reset to factory defaults. The problem is it blanked all of my pictures. I know I should have had it backed up etc... but I didn't. My question is this, is there a way to undelete the files from the phone after blanking it. I have powered down the phone and bought a different temporary phone so that it doesn't over write any more of the files. The only undelete programs I have found require root access. So does anybody know if I can root the phone so I can undelete files? Or is there a way to undelete without root? I don't care about tripping KNOX or anything I would like to just get my photos back. It would be nice to use again but I don't care about NFC payments or anything KNOX would affect. If I have to sacrifice the phone to get pictures off then so be it. It is now running 5.1.1.
The only program I know of is on the computer for sd cards. Not sure if it would work with a phone tho. And I can't remember the name either. Google file recovery programs. I used one for my corrupted sd and it did a great job recovering. Problem is like you said is being written over if you power up the phone. Try googling "data recovery from ota deleted phone"? Good luck.

Phone Picture Recovery

I was trying to recover some pictures that apparently deleted themselves or maybe I somehow deleted without myself realizing it. The phone is not rooted and from some of the posts, it seems like I will need to root it to gain access to recover the files. But I am fearing that the rooting process would wipe out some of the pictures that may still be in the memory. What would be my best way to proceed here?
Thanks!
You need an unlocked bootloader to root your device. Unlocking your bootloader will wipe all your internal storage...

Rooting ATT

Probably not correct place, but hoping someone will help me out. Android 10 I have and want to root without wiping. Need to retreive photos videos that have been accidently deleted.
