Thought I would warn a few fellow wp7 users about this one I just tripped over:
It’s to do with renaming your phone and Losing ALL your photos synced on your PC
Steps
1) Set up your phone for the first time with name test1 on Zune
2) take some pics
3) sync with zune
4) check you now have c:\users\(username)\pictures\From test1\camera roll\
5) Reset phone
6) Set up your phone on Zune and name it test2
7) take some pics
8) sync with zune
9) check you now have c:\users\(username)\pictures\From test2\camera roll\
10) now rename your phone to Test1
all your photos you had stored in folder Test2 are deleted without notice.
My entire collection was deleted yesterday when I renamed my phone to an older name that already existed in my pictures folder. Fortunately I use Home server to back up so I had everything on back up.
nice bug though and will make a few ppl cry when they lose every picture they ever took,
I'm not sure if this happends in previous versions of zune.

Werent the pictures still on your phone and transferred to the new folder?
Sounds like it recognises that youve wiped your phone and thus wipes what it has.
But either way, it should prompt you that its about to delete photos

And if they are not?
If you're like me you phone has been reset a few times and then lots of pictures and a few diffrent names used.
then one day you relise you can rename your phone and doing so deletes the pictures with out prompting on your PC irelevent if the phone has any or none!
Not a good situation to find your self in.
Obviously the only story is backups from there on and not every one does this, in my case I was lucky
Thoses less computer savy wont even know whats happened to their pics as they simply disapear!!
This one just bit me
In a perfect storm of circumstance, I just lost every picture I had taken on my HTC Titan I got in November, mostly pics of my now 9 month old son.
I was able to recover some files using Recuva software but none of the pics will open (aparently corrupted) even though recovery prognosis was listed as "excellent".
I am not happy...

Did you not allow them to sync to your computer or with SkyDrive?
Volume Shadow Copies, people. Best resore/undelete-type feature available for Windows that I know of, yet so few people seem to use it.
Right-click the folder that should have the files, and select the Previous Versions option. Works on NT 5.2 up (Server 2003, Vista/Server 2008, Win7/Server 2008 R2, and I think also on Win8). Requires that VSC (which are created at part of the System Restore feature) be set to create for personal files (not jsut system files), and the Windows Service for them not be disabled.
Saved my butt multiple times.

Today I spent ages sorting out all my pictures on my computer then loaded up Zune and told it to sync (I have delete from phone option disabled in Zune)
Off it went then I noticed it said it was deleting from phone arrrghh
I stopped the sync and checked the phone and yes it has deleted all the pictures (luckily I have 90% of them on my hdd already) but is there anyway to recover the ones it deleted?
And why did it delete them when I had the option disabled?
My case is pretty different from you,but I just want to let more people know the issue of WP7.
actually I tried to add a folder into my device,however,once everything done. I enter the pictures hub,i have found my folder there,however, all the pictures in my camera roll disappeared,but luckily i jump back to the menu and choose DATE,i can find my camera roll pictures there(it is not deleted,but disappeared).weird...god damn WP7...
This situation is pretty random...now all the pictures is back to my camera roll again,it has happened 3 times on my device.oh my god....

Is it Samsung Focus with sdcard?
That's why I started using skydrive or whatever it's called to upload all pictures I take to a private online album. It's great because it just happens. You don't even know it's doing it.
Just got my Samsung Focus S, and I'm trying to get as much data as I can from my old Samsung Focus over to the new phone. What's the best way of doing this?
image the phone to the sdcard and then change the car.... oh wait.... wp7.... nevermind
that was fun
Bottom line, you can't get there from here.
Anything that has been copied to your PC through Zune (photos, videos, music) can be copied back to your new phone. Also, anything that is already stored in the cloud will still be available. But anything that is solely on your phone (app/game settings & saves, SMS messages, documents created by apps that don't support cloud storage, etc), will be permanently lost.
Microsoft does not provide (or even allow for) any mechanism to make a transferable backup of your device.

yea that was productive...NOT!!! go somewhere. Anyway u can't make a backup of one device and transfer it to another but u can reinstall all ur apps from the web marketplace and resync all media once reconnected to Zune. Text messages and game saves will be gone unless the games get updated for cloud saves.

any chance of using that custom backup tool and then forcing a restore backup? I know the backups that Zune makes before an update store everything (sms, apps, contacts)

The backup is just like a Image backup in your Windows, which means any changes after the backup is voided if you restore.
What we want is, a working backup that can backup our precious data like SMS, apps data, etc... so that we can quickly restore it after we reseted our phone or switching to a new phone...

No but that's what I'm getting at. If this guy has a new phone, in theory, he'd just have to load the image of backup over the new phone's OS. Unless, Windows Phone freaks out over hardware changes like Windows does

To further your knowledge, each backup are encrypted and unique to each phone by reading the device ID and which only restorable to that specific device.
Yeah, means if you switch to new phone, your old phone backup cannot transfer to the new phone

you're taking a loyalty to a phone far too seriously here mate.
wp7 could benefit from real, full os imaging, just like -any- digital device that reads/writes zeros and ones could.
imaging a device has aboslutely zero security risk, to the owner, developer of applications, or to the market (hardware) place. the unique device ID (hardware) is enough to ensure software piracy is kept at bay.
its a huge plus to the consumer:
at 3am the phone automagically images it's entire self to microSD, and deletes the oldest past 3 backups, saving two.
sms, gamesaves, offline documents, offline settings, CALL LOGS, and system updates are all in a safe, convenient place.
then just mount the microSD to your computer and copy over the phone images to your computer or encrypt and upload to a secure server.
this means destroying a phone is only a hardware loss. within 10 minutes of recieving a new piece of hardware the entire phone could be as it was before whatever damaged the previous.
how people see this as something that isn't needed is beyond me.

I totally agree. I love wp7 and will fight its corner against anything to anyone however if something is missing and needed its still missing and needed! This is one of them things just like vpn. I am 4 days from upgrading to the lumia 800 and i hate the fact i will lose all my game saves esp as some are working towards xbox live points. As i said you cant pretend something isnt needed just because its not there, this is a real shame. To me though it is like loveing my son but i do hate it when he screams at me cos i didnt give him my malteasers. Dont mean i love him any less but i would hope they sort it out. Or ay least give me some malteasers.

The most we can do at this point is VOTE UP that feature in the windows phone feature suggestion page and MAYBE microsoft will implement it. That feature has a ****load of votes, cannot remember link. The idea is quite good.
The reason the dude commented on your post was because your initial post did absolutely NOTHING to help the OP, it only satisfied your urge to bash the platform :-/
Very unproductive.
so no way to restore from old phone ..............hmmmmm
What if Microsoft made a feature like the ones found in Windows, the Easy Transfer wizard? They could whip up a feature in Windows Phone settings as "Easy Transfer" and let the user choose how they will transfer the files and settings (wallpaper, sms, system settings, as in ALL including synced emails) from the old phone to the new one, either wifi, or at least bluetooth. EVERYBODEH HAPPEH
I wrote a data backup app for HTC phones a while ago, but nothing for Samsung yet because Heathcliff74 hasn't released a tool for getting filesystem access (like his WP7 Root Tools app does) to other devs yet. No guarantee it'd be immediatley usable anyhow though, since the Focus S seems to use different high-privilege DLLs than the first-gen phones so all our current high-privilege apps (registry editing and provxml and all) don't work yet.
just found a way to get my apps back on my Focus S
Its not quite the end all fix,
but I just bought a focus S and wanted to transfer my apps from my old focus, of course the marketplace doesn't show that I own those apps on my new phone and there's no way to transfer them in Zune, but you can do it through the windowsphone site.
if you log into your windowsLive ID at WindowsPhone.com theres an option to reinstall apps from your purchase history. you just select the phone you want to transfer to, and then you select the app or game and then it sends you a text message to reinstall the app.
its not the greatest way, but atleast you dont have to buy all the stuff over again

Attempting to repurchase an app will simply tell you you've purchased it before and install it for free. So the market doesn't tell you what you've bought before, but there's no risk of repurchasing either.
Hello all,
I have a problem with very important lost pictures on the SD card of my Samsung Galaxy S4.
Here's what happened...
I went out for New Year Eve, had a wonderful time and took many pictures. Upon reviewing my pictures, I noticed that about half of my pics were showing a blank icon with a lightning bolt in the top center. I was very upset about this, but said to myself "well, at least I have half of my pictures".
Then I took the SD card out of my phone and put it into a card reader and plugged it into my Windows 7 computer.
Upon doing so, I got the message ".......Scan and Fix (recommended) with the option to continue or cancel. I chose continue and all my pictures were deleted from New Years Eve.
I downloaded and tried 12 different data recovery software and it only found files that I had already copied over; no files from New Years Eve .
I read somewhere that there might be a place where the pictures may be in a hidden file system area under a different file extension and that all I had to do was change the file extension and I would get my pictures back.
Well, after a thorough search, I came up with no files.
I also tried to look for CHK files in order to change the extension, but; much to my disappointment, no CHK files were visibly present.
I have read about dirty bit, hidden partitions, chkdsk, clusters and more; some of which I am not knowledgeable enough to use.
This is a 64GB san disk card that was plugged into my Samsung Galaxy S4.
Thanks much,
duugg
Never never never never never never never let Windows 'scan and fix' a drive, card of device!!!!
Always cancel it!!!
I have lost a significant number of very important files because idiotic colleages clicked 'continue' immediately without reading and without asking.
Even specialists couldn't recover the files, they were completely gone.

Thanks for the response and sorry for the delay.
So, one little press of a button (a button that says "recommended" nonetheless) is enough to destroy files to a level not retrievable even with the toughest data recovery software.
If that is true, then data destruction software companies should take note of Microsoft's simple program that deletes data to a non-recoverable state with the click of just one button.
This is crazy.
Shouldn't the pictures still be there because new data was not written over them?
I'm confused and still sad about this .
BUMP
Anyone have any thoughts on this?
Thanks
Hi,
I just deleted a video by mistake couple of days ago, I loved that video clip a lot it was my baby boy first year old birthday video I downloaded many recovery software, (recuva, Jihosoft, Dr. Fine etc) they either could not found out the deleted data or problem with rooting. I don't know what is rooting, but I set my cell phone is now developer version now. Can anyone recommend me a software that work?
Keep your phone turned off. When a file gets deleted its space is marked as available, and larger spaces gets to be overwritten first. Longer you use your phone, more there is a risk of the file getting damaged.
Edit: Since You are not rooted, anything you do on your phone has a great possibility of overwriting the video file. On an android phone without root file recovery apps are your best bet, but I dont know if anything good exists in the android ecosystem.
On my previous rooted phone, I took a full disk image incase the files got overwritten, I would have backups. Then I used photorec on my computer, or some other apps to recover as much as I can.
You cant take a full disk image or let the software on your PC to access your phone since Android uses this dumb MTP thing for file transfers.
I have a Huawei P30 phone not rooted and never been in strangers hands.
Few months ago this crazy woman shared a fake video on my Facebook page. I clicked on it but won't open unless I installed a "flash plugin", obviously fake. I did it and the video won't open anyway. Few hours later she started to tease me about things I said privately to my friends via Whatsapp and Instagram, and in the following months she started insulting me with fake Instagram profiles every time I chatted privately with other girls, once making a clear reference to a picture I held in my private gallery.
I believe that the only way to get rid of this trojan/RAT is to factory reset my phone. But, considering I have more than 10 thousands photographies, 700 videos and 1500 contact numbers, I would like to save these datas, even manually.
To do this, can I 1) plug the hacked smartphone into my PC with a USB cable, while keeping them both OFFLINE, 2) then manually export contacts, photos and videos? Then 3) transfer these datas, always manually, into a brand new Iphone?
THANKS
A nice Russian girl
Rather sloppy not to keep backups and to wait even a day to purge that rootkit.
You could have other infected files on there now as well. Put it on a flash stick. Alternatively upload to cloud.
It needs to be scanned and even then there's malware that might evade detection. It could infect the PC as well if there's more hidden wuv packages. Malware jpegs are a terror, both Windows and Adroids are vulnerable to them... it only takes one. If present it/they must be deleted... thousands of images you say.
Oh my.

I made a scan of all the content on the hacked phone with 1) Kaspersky full version and then 2) Panda security dome full version but nothing was found. Then I exported all my photo albums and videos with a usb cable on my PC, and repeated a scan on it with Panda dome. Nothing was found again. No weird jpegs were ever sent to me. Only that damn video which asked to download a fake flash plugin on my Huawei.
What if I finally transfer all this stuff into an APPLE IPHONE? will it be compromised too?

Ideally you would have wiped everything on the phone and restored from known good backups.
iPhones are not impervious to malware.
Depends how resourceful and determined your hacker is. All that social media crap will be your undoing. You're wide open and an easy target.

my hacker just want to do me wrong and give me a hard time with insults, humiliations etc because she is a stalker psychopath who has been refused by me.
So, you are suggesting me to lose all my social media and more than 10.000 photos because a stalker psychopath decided to do so? No defence, no strategy against such a threath? I knwo social media is basically ****, but the sole idea to let this psychopath win because she decided so is unaccettable for me.

Dude I understand, but WHAT can I do? Delete everything while not even trying a backup? yesterday I even saw some strange notification about my phone having just been being link to google Chromcast.. beside I was at work, and never had Chromcast installed and nobody has in my house ! I just want to save my 10 thousands pictures before to thrash my phone!
Do what you want... dude.
You screwed up by not backing anything up for how long? Ever?
So save the data and hope for the best.
I have over a dozen hdds I use for backup in different locations. My phone SD card is redundantly backed up with 3+ copies on different hdds. All are offline.
The time to do something was before this happened... first mistake.
Second mistake, still using the device with known malware on it.
If found something like that on my phone this morning by now it either be gone or the phone be reloaded.

I know that I screwed up by never backing anything up.. hard lesson learned. But it's like a month and nobody, not even professionals, could tell me how to safely backup my stuff before to wipe everyhting out! This hacker is owning my phone by such a long time before I could understand what had happened that she literally had time to backup herself ALL my stuff, even the smallest details in my life! I even had to block my bank accounts!!! Anything worse than that?
All the worse already happened, that's the problem. And considering that, I feel like I have nothing to lose anymore, so I just want to pick all my personal stuff or at least my accounts and savely bring them into another phone, that I just bought. An iphone 12. But looks like a complicated math equation to export stuff from a hacked phone into another phone!
What If I reboot this hacked phone with safe mode, and I transfer all my stuff and files in this mode? No trojan should be active in safe mode, isn't it?
I already told you, a flash drive... I would use two and make 2 backup copies.
Confirm the data is complete and readable on the flash drive(s) before wiping phone.
See what happens on the new load before and after the old data is reloaded.
A month? Jeeeesze... stop screwing around.

Pulling data of interest only is possible if
Phone's Android's USB-service mode is set to adb,mtp
Phone is OTG capable and/or phone's Android is ADB enabled

I'm sorry but I have no idea how to even control if these options are enabled. I just enabled developer options and entered developer menu but I don't know how to check these options.
Some steps for your reference.
1. Make sure that your Windows PC has both the latest Windows updates and a strong enough security software installed.
2. Connect the P30 to your PC in order to make a full data backup.
3. Reset your P30( Factory Reset + Wipe Cache Partition ).
4. Reset the passwords of your social network apps ASAP.
5. For the data backed up from the mobile phone, or even the entire Windows PC, run a full security scan.

For HUAWEI devices the HiSuite utility exists with which you can transfer files from phone to computer.
All you have to do is to activate on phone USB Debugging and additionally turn on HDB.

Thank you sir, you're precious. You're all being precious. One redundant question since I'm passing from my Huawei hacked phone to a brand new apple Iphone 12. At first boot time, It asks me the possibility to export selected datas from a PC or Android phone, by using an app called "switch to iOS". Can I also do that or is it better doing the whole manual thing we're talking about, avoiding such "in app" data transfers?
