i deleted a video file (recorded using my phone) from the storage card, and i do not sync that folder. is there a way to recover this, or an equivalent recycle folder for storage cards ?
placed in a sdcarder on the pc all pc harddisk undelete tools work just fine with the sdcard
only way i know off
If Rudegar's method doesn't work, try some data recovery software.
Take a look here: http://www.pricelesswarehome.org/2007/PL2007FILEUTILITIES.php#3.30Files:Undelete
In any case U will need card reader.
Thanks guys, I will try these, I have tried a few others, via the sd card reader, but they do pick up some very old deleted files, but not the one in question (a video clip from my phone .mp4 format), i managed in some applications to even select specifc file types and all files, but no success, will try the link suggested below, thanks, will let you know how it goes.
Try "Recover My Files"
Woks for me every time.
I had excellent results with PC Inspector Smart Recovery for pictures, videos and pocketword/excel files. You have to put it into a cardreader for that.
Can we recover frm fon itslf????

Now my cousin is in holiday abroad and accidently he has deleted tomtom maps folder from sd.
He have not use explorer like resco files so there isn't recycled bin!
And me I know recover method with a computer
But how undelete files directly in his htc p3600 / trinity ?
please how help him?
You might be able to use a file recovery program on the PC to try and recover files from there. I don't know if there is such a program for the phone itself.

Here is a freeware program you can try. I have never used it, but others will cost you money and will probably do the same thing.
You cant recover files from SD cards, they dont work like hard drives.
yes they do in the case of one being able to undelete from them
flash have a limited number of writes before they die
so it's natrual that they just delete the ref to the files
in the "fat"
But i know already recovery sd from trinity with pc when trinity is usb mass storage (softick card export) and a file recovery tool... But situation of my cousin don't allow to do this.
Someone can confirm if a ppc tool exist to recovery or it's impossible?
put the sd card in a sdcard reader for pc
and use a program like undelete plus and pick the drive
the sdcardreader represent
and choose scan
pick the files you want to undelete and click undelete
end of story
Rudegar: thats a new one. My bad.
ive always used and swear by sandisk rescuepro, might be hard to find.
The OP is saying that his cousin doesn't have access to a PC at the minute as he's on holiday.. he seems aware of PC recovery but would like to do it directly on the PPC...
As for that I've not seen anything that can do it myself directly on the PocketPC though it would be good...
You could possibly get a HexEditor and use that to do it directly on the card on the PPC as the files will only have been marked for removal and not actually removed.. but then again I doubt a card filesystem writes continually.. (thats bad for the life of the flash so it will random write across the card in small chunks)
The best idea would be to remove the card until he's back (to prevent any writes to it which could damage data making recovery impossible) and recover on a PC as suggested by everyone else.
i agree, do it right on a pc. dont try to recover on the ppc.
All of the sudden, all the files on my SD card went missing! I was transferring music and video files to the device over USB (as a storage card, per the custom ROM USB/PC feature) and after it was done, it showed my card as blank.
I took the card out of the phone (XV6900) and put it into my SD adapter and into my computer. The 4GB card shows that 1.8GB are in use when I go to properties, however, there are no files at all in the root of the drive! Like they are invisible! (Yes, I have Windows set to show all hidden and system files, so that is not the problem)
How do I get my files to reappear? It looks like they are not actually deleted! i don't get why this happened all of the sudden
you can try an undelete program and check the sdcard while in the reader
undelete programs can handle sdreaders just like they can hd's

I'm using the same 4GB card as my old phones. this never happened on my Titan or TouchPro, each of which I have for a year or so. I have had a Vogue for 1 week and it has happened twice! does the XV6900 wipe the card periodically or when performing certain actions? even on a ROM update/flash it should touch the SD card when running from the RUU package in windows
I downloaded a ROM through XDA Premium and now my microsd won't allow me to delete or add files to it! I tried formatting it but when the formatting is complete. All the files are back onto the card! Help please!
EDIT: I can still listen to my music and take pictures on my phone
Since when can you download ROMs through xda app?
You mean you clicked a link in XDA app which got opened and downloaded by the browser.
If the files are back after formating your didnt format it correctly.
You can try the explorer of this app to delete the rom.
The file I downloaded through XDA disappeared right after download.
I just noticed that my micro sd is now in RAW format. Is there anyway that I can get it back to FAT32?
Usually through Settings->Memory.
If that doesnt do it you could plug it into a computer/laptop and format it from there.
I think my card is corrupt. My computer say's that it cannot format it.
I've decided to buy a new micro sd card. Thanks for helping
Ok so I am having an issue getting files to my phone to update my ROM and Kernel. The USB gives the errors like should be expected. It will not let me mass storage to get any files on there.
My browser is also giving me issues and when I try to download anything from online it goes right to "Download Unsuccessful."
I have Google Drive and installed it and tried using it but when downloading from there it downloads not onto the SD card.
I also tried to use DropBox but when downloading it says "Storage full or unavailable"
I can view EVERYTHING on my SD card perfectly fine using Astro but I am unable to delete, cut, copy, paste or edit anything on the SD Card.
What do I need to do?
Really trying to avoid another wipe if at all possible.
I suffered this issue too.....Check your memory card firstly whether u can write on it and it is not corrupted if not then u have done a bad flash......
Download Astro File Manager from the Play Store, go into the Preferences, and touch the enable browser downloads box.

Sometimes it pays to have a microSD card reader. If you have a laptop, check the sides and see if it has a reader built in.
It kinda sounds like your sdcard is stuck on read-only... Try mounting your sdcard through USB from recovery maybe? That's all I can think of if you can't delete/write while booted.
Also, if you can mount sdcard and read files off of it, try copying all files off and into a backup folder, format sdcard, restore files.
Hope some of this helps. I really do recommend you buy a standalone MicroSD card reader. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA12K0958408 <<< $4 and free shipping, should work fine.
I have a stand alone microSD card reader. And i can get my computer to read the files perfectly fine. I can view them and everything. But I cannot move them off of the memory card or add/delete files on the memory card.
I'm seeking assistance in restoring files that my tablet killed XD
I pulled memory card out of my my phone and installed it in my tf300t to watch movies and pictures i've taken on a bigger screen... after which the tablet created a folder called lost.dir and corrupted many of my pictures,videos and mp3s
Is there anyway to restore the files?There's about 8 big files in lost.dir folder some of them are joined together mp3's which i can open and play and some of them cannot be opened using anything
I really need to restore my pictures and videos or i'm just gonna kill myself :silly:
evidently the filesystem on your sd card was damaged and your tablet tried to fix it running fsck (or wathever android uses), did you properly shut down the camera before removing your card?
that directory is where linux filesystem recovery utility saves orphan files (files for whom directory data like name and lenght is lost) so they wont be overwritten and you can try something to recover them.
yes,i safely removed the sd card from my phone.Try something like what?i searched all over the internet and i cant find anything :S
this forum is my last chance XD
if its the external sdcard and you have a pc to plug it in try useing smth like getdataback (not free) or recuva http://www.piriform.com/recuva (free) and let it scan the card.
gl
cheers
i already tried to restore the files..it restores already the corrupted ones...
