Help needed, accidentally lost photos on S3

[Nokkie]

Hey Folks! (Happy New Year!!!)


I'm in a pickle, I accidentally deleted all my foties on the S3 about (21Gigs)

I would like to know if it is possible to retrieve them?

Do you guys know of any recovery software?

PS: I know I should have backed up my phone, I told myself I was going to do it in the afternoon. And to late...


Thanks for the advice !

You may be able to use a recovery tool and connect the phone to the pc. Easier if the photos were on a card.
The Google plus backup on the s3 can include photos via wifi. ... this is a good option to use.

Ok, first thing to do is to stop doing anything that writes to the phones memory - you trying to recover deleted files and if you continue using the phone, recovery chances decrease.

Next, download recuva, it's a free windows app that let's you restore deleted files.

Plug your phone to your PC in USB mode and using recuva, scan the phone for deleted pics.
