Hi

I am hoping some of the wonderful regs on here can offer some advise please.

I stupidly ( well actually I blame my husband who had me fiddling with the stupid panoramic mode ) somehow deleted my entire batch of photos from my 40th birthday in Glastonbury. I've no idea how it happened I think i must have clicked on the panoramic pic to remove it and it must have been the pic on the folder of photos, its just a guess but i've no idea how it happened they are just gone :0(

I am desperate to recover them but it seems as its on the internal memory and not the sd card its not possible i've not taken any other photos hoping i could recover them but just wondered if anyone had any advise for me on if its at all still possible?

Take another look at the thread - the OP did manage to recover some of the files that had been deleted.   Just follow the instructions that have been given and you may be able to recover some of your files

The 2014 suggestion doesn't work now. I downlaod and install Recuva but it can't scan any deleted fiels form S6.

If you want to recover deleted files, you need to do it as soon as you can.   It's also advisable to stop using the device/storage in question until you have.  For this reason, recovery is best done via a remote connection.

 

Files are "deleted" by removing the directory entry, which frees the allocation units up to be overwritten.  Even installing recovery software can start to do this.  The recovery process reads the original data and recreates the directory entries.   It sounds as though the process has gone quite a long way inthis case.   Once that's happened, recovery is not possible other than by very specialist software, and this is an expensive process.

 

The best way of dealign with the whole situation is to make sure all your important files are duplicated somewhere else.   In the case of photos, syncing with Dropbox or Google Drive (or even both) is the easiest solution.

Sometime the deleted photos still store in S4 internal memory, but you can't see them, so you can try a android recovery tool to scan out the phone, if the photos did not been overwritten, you can get erased photos back from Samsung S4.
