This and the other thread about contacts and text messages is an good opportunity to point out that there are a number of ways to automatically back up the contents of your Android phone.

Make sure your contacts are set to sync with your Google (Gmail) account. I remember seeing at least one Android phone were the default setting was to just store them on the phone. The other nice thing about doing that is if you want to edit contacts or upload a bunch of them from another account is that you can do it all on a computer with a nice big screen and keyboard. Changes on the computer are automatically synced to the phone and almost instantaneously.

Depending on your version of Android it may offer the ability to back up photos automatically to Google+. If you don't want a Google+ account, they can be "hidden." There are plenty of other apps that do so automatically as well including ones like DropBox.

There are also plenty of apps that back up your SMS messages. I use SMS Backup+ and it creates a folder inside your Gmail account for text messages. Messages are automatically backed up based on a schedule you set.

For those who like to text but don't like tapping away on a little screen I might suggest Mighty Text. Essentially you can type messages on your computer (including sending pictures) and they're sent through your phone. You use either the Might Text website or install an add-on for Chrome and send messages from your Gmail account. It works pretty darn well.

I might also add that backing up a lot of pictures can use up your cellular data allotment rather quickly. Fortunately most apps have a setting to allow backups only when connected to a WiFi network.

PhotoRec is the reliable old standby for photo recovery, as Joe mentioned in the first post. But it's not so mouse click user friendly.
Assuming the photos are on the internal memory, if you want to give it a try you need to get it into camera mode or "USB mass storage mode" so the memory will show up as a drive on your computer.

For the former, try :

For the latter, try the faq on PhotoRec's site :

http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/PhotoRec_FAQ#How_to_enable_the_USB_mass_storage_mode

Then follow some tutorial for PhotoRec (there are many out there) like the one PhotoRec's site :

Having said all that, it might be easier to get the phone into "USB mass storage mode" and use the free Recuva tool :

Be careful with those links or you will get, loads of add on junk.

I would also reccomend an ap like Dumpster. It won't help recover files deleted before it was installed. It's like the recycle bin on your PC. Deleted files reside there and can be restored or permanently deleted. Like the recycle bin, your Dumpster can be emptied anytime.

If you synced your phone with google they should have backed up to that. If you are on Verizon they automatically back up to the cloud and there will be a cloud icon on the phone to access photos, contacts and such. Mary

look in the play store there are a lot of applications about recovering files, so just download & install the application

Take a look at the following article, it may provide a solution for you

I use, and recommend Samsung Kies, for backing up all or anything on your phone, including S Planner, photos, videos and apps. It's an easy download. Good to have for future backups.

Good luck.

Kleis is nice but you have to use a computer to back up and restore which stinks unless I just don't know how to use it directly on the phone to make a file. If something happens while I am away I am not near my computer to do the restore. When I had my LG smart phones there was a back up icon and it would make a file backing up everything, settings and all and save it to my SD card then when I had new stuff I would just back up and over write that file. Then if I had to wipe the phone out I could just call up that file on the SD card and restore the phone exactly the way it was before settings, wallpaper, ringtones selected and all but I didn't need a computer to do it, was done right from the phone itself. I can't wait to go back to an LG phone. Wanted to try something different but not crazy about the S5 for that reason. Mary
