[Q] any chance to restore a deleted item? - HTC Inspire 4G

So computers have the 'recycle bin' that holds onto a deleted item for a bit. Any chance there is something like that on these?
I discovered two things got deleted this morning by accident and I'd love to get them back!

What did you delete?
I got your 10 char right here

Pictures actually...I think the person I was showing them too did it by accident. Didn't notice until a bit ago when I wanted to email them out.

O...ouch...no, I believe your SOL my friend.
But lesson learned, back up your sd card. I back mine up to my laptop once a week.

Oh well, not a huge deal...just figured I'd ask!

You could try a file recovery program. It should still be able to recover it unless it has been overwritten with something else

suggestions on one?
BTW - I have not rooted my phone or anything like that, it is OEM condition...

I personally use recuva. Just mount your SD card either with an adapter Or plug in your phone onto your PC(I've always used an adapter but this should work). Open up the program select the drive. Select the type of files to recover. And hopefully it should bring them back.

THanks - downloaded that one
Oddly enough, as soon as I plugged it in to my computer the pictures came back! didn't have to do anything with recuva!

I've read that tends to happen a bit if you're using the stock gallery app. Pics don't show up in the gallery but are still on the card. Try a different app. I started using QuickPic and haven't had the mysteriously disappearing photo since.

Try turning off fastboot on your phone.

The pics disappearing on stock gallery is pretty common. There is an easy fix though. Just go the sd card in settings and unmount then remount, and walah your pics are back.

SD card unexpectedly removed error.....

Ugh. This is so annoying. I have a HTC inspire all stock. Just the newest update from ATT. Also when I got the phone about 2 months ago I purchased a 16 gig class 2 sandisk SD card and had this error over and over.
So I formatted it in the phone and had zero issues for a month. Now today we went on a trip and I used Google maps with navigation and once I got to my destination and closed out maps and did other things on my phone all of a sudden guess what came back. Yep. SD card removed. This time I received it like 5 times. The last time I pulled both the SD card and battery also I uninstalled the update to Google maps and so far its fine. I just wish they would freaking figure the problem out I'm getting annoyed with it.
Anyone else have this issue yet or a fix for it?

That is pretty dang weird! I have a bone stock Inspire as well. I am using just the 8 gig class 4 SanDisc card that came with the phone and have not had that problem. However, I have not used navigation and only use data when I'm on my home WiFi network. Sorry I can't help you further, maybe one of these other guys on here will be able to help you correct it. I would say try backing up the entire SD card to your computer, to back up all you files on it, and try reformatting from your computer. When I say from your computer, I mean take it out of the phone and get it connected directly to the pc. If that doesn't work, I'm all outta options. Good luck, and let us know if that works or not.

Yeah I will try it when I get home on Sunday. There are a ton of posts on googles site for developers with this same issue across a ton of other phone manuacturers. Some say its 2.2 issue but idk. I am so mad now its doing it again. Now I can lock the screen and 20 minutes later ill unlock and it does the SD card again. I managed to unmount it before it did it again. I wish Google would fix it.
Here is the post I'm talking about. I know it says LG ally but if you see all the posts there are a lot of them different brands.

Whenever I used weatherbug on my Inspire, I was had the SD card unmount problem...
Hmmm. Let me uninstall weatherbug its worth a shot. I have had it on my phone for a few weeks now without issue tho.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
I would wonder if it doesn't have something to do with the slower data transfer speeds of class 2 flash media, but that may only effect the ability to record 720p video.
Hopefully it's a REAL 16 GB card from SanDisk, and not a counterfeit card.
Well I deleted weatherbug app and no SD card inexpecdly removed error. Oh well that's weird. And its a real card I purchased it at Hastings in Richmond ky.
Also slower speed hasn't effected anything. I recorded some videos of my son playing and it was just fine.

I used to have that issue all the time when I was on froyo. I haven't had it at all on gingerbread. I think it is an app2sd problem in froyo.
i saw something similar but with the sim card...
i think it was the door
Well the error is back. God this is annoying as Hell. Once the screen locks when it goes to sleep I guess it comes right back. I tried installing contract killers this morning and it caused it to do this again. So I deleted it and it won't stop....

Do you happen to be running the "Flight Control" game app? It can do strange stuff if you leave it paused for too long (forcing a battery-pullout).
nope no flight control app... well i had to back up my photos and videos online so i can format the card in the phone.... its been about 30 minutes so far so good.. i hope this is fixed... sucks because i lost all my progress on all my angry birds games and everything lol...
Still getting this crap. It's fine unless I access the card on a game. If I play contract killer the first time I open it works fine. But if I close and go back it will say checking integrity of the file it will close out and POP up the sd card error. You guys think heat can do this? It was fine till I drove with maps on and the battery got warm. I just wonder if the card is going bad?

Ok so weird. Now that I am home with a WiFi connection I havent received this error at all in 24 hours..... ugh of course when I was in the woods (literally) this past weekend it flipped out and almost messed up my whole weekend. Now I'm home its fine. FML
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App
Well that's pretty strange..
Do you get the same sort of problem if your phone is in Airplane mode?
Do you have a mini/micro SD card reader for your PC (or another phone) to try the card in? If so, maybe you could try playing a large video file directly from the card, just to see if stays stable.
Yeah I can try that today. That's a good idea never thought to do that. Now airplane mode I never tried but so far its been two days and no sd card error. I do know I am going to start backing that Dang thing up from now on tho after this.

[Q] Camera crashes phone

Droid Charge, rooted, PBJ 7-31 SV Kernel, SD Speed Increase
I've only had this phone a couple weeks, but I think this is a new problem. When I try to take a picture, the phone freezes up. You hear an abbreviated shutter sound, the flash fires, and the screen goes black. None of the vol+ power, vol+ home power, etc; do anything. The only way to get the phone working again is to pull the battery.
In doing some simple testing, it only seems to do it when the flash is enabled. The camcorder works fine also.
Sound familiar to anyone?

its a known issue afaik, probably kernel related but don't quote me on it... haven't heard of a fix aside from maybe reflashing/re-odining your rom
Not happening to me, can we get some other info like your kernel, rom and free space?
Beamed from my Droid Charge using the XDA premium app
I have the same problem. It only seems to happen when the battery gets low, around 30% and the flash on. Pull the battery and restart the phone shows it did not take the picture.
I am running Eclipse 1.31, peanutbutta jelly time kernal, and I have 28.91gb free space.
That is a sign that you are undervolting too aggresively.
Elucid, im not sure thats it either. I've taken hundreds of pics with my phone. This morning while taking pics of my kids for first day of school. The cam crashed my phone. I mean super crashed. Pulled battery and reset, and my acore, swype, and android keyboard were gone. Had to completely ODIN my phone.
I have had mine crash and when I recovered i started getting all kinds of force close errors and had to odin back to stock.
I was running gummycharge with several versions of the peanutbutter jelly. I went totally back to stock and then flashed humble. Humble seems to have this problem less, but I'm not 100% sure.
I have found that the crash usually occurs when the phone is multitasking. Running pandora and taking a picture will ALWAYS crash. Running Barnacle Wifi and taking a picture crashes as well.

That seems plausible. How do I check the voltage? I'm running PBJ 8-7, have not made any changes. Should I install SetCPU?
Bump.
Guys, I really need some help here. Is there another kernel I should try? I'm on the latest PBNJ (not OC). I want to stay rooted but I might have to go back to stock if that fixes the camera problem. I have two little kids and I'm missing out on some great shots of them because of this ridiculous camera problem.

your phone might just not like undervolting... I believe imnuts' PBJ voodoo kernel is set at -50mhz across the board which is really conservative, you could always disable lagfix and use his non-voodoo PBJ kernel

I am running the voodoo flavor of PBJT (0730) without the camera issue. I had a couple of freezes and lost root a couple of times on the 0807 release. Wiping cache from CWM fixed the lost root temporarily and going back to 0730 stabilized everything again.
FWIW, there have been several posts on VZW's forums about the camera
issue on presumably stock phones.

I may have found out what the problem is. I was having the same problem and it seems to be the sd card. It HAS to be the Samsung sd card. When i took my phone back they gave me a new one and it had the Samsung sd card inside when i checked it. It also solves the HD video problem too. Hope this helps.

I think he means when they switched it out, they gave him a Class 4 sd. The original Charges came with a Class 2 card, and at some point they switched to shipping them with a 4.

All I'm saying is that ever since I went from the sandisk class 4 to the samsung I can use the flash as many times as I want without the phone crashing and I can also record video in 720p without it crashing.

There is an extensive thread about this on the Verizon forums, with no valid solution being proposed. Some are arguing that its a defective battery, which would make sense.
I'm at the end of my rope with this problem. If this thing locks up one more time when I'm trying to get a shot of my kids, I'm going to be looking at a warranty replacement.

Hi,
New to the S3 and this rom. Root, flash went well, and so far, I'm loving this rom. One problem that is stumping me is this:
Using ADW launcher, have a direct dial short cut to voice mail. The voice mail contact is set up to dial *86 ,,xxxx, so with one tap, I can call vm and access messages.
However, the keyboard then becomes non responsive. I can't delete or save messages, and if I have multiple messages, can't get to the next one.
Any suggestions on how to work around this appreciated.
I'm running the 3.2 beta version of LS, and really only have this, and one other minor issue.
Thank you.
Still haven't solved this, but here's more clarification:
Phone is running LiquidSmooth 4.2.1m v2.1m beta 3.2
1. Using a 'direct dial shortcut. the rom dialer has a contact set up named voicemail, that is programmed: *86;,,XXXX. When I hit the direct dial shortcut, voicemail is dialed, xxxx is sent, and I can hear my first voicemail. The problem is the dialpad is non responsive. So, I can't save or delete the first voicemail, nor can I proceed to listen to the next one.
If I dial *86, and enter the password manually, then the dial pad works.
Even if I dial any contact withGoDialer, then, open keyboard to dial and extension, I get the stock dialer.
I drive a lot, and need as few distractions as possible. Any suggestions on how to fix this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

--------------If you like puzzle, tackle this---------------
I tried pretty much everything on the internet before posting here.
My stock/no root phone started bootlooping. So I used Odin and root66.tar to get it back. Everything seemed to be good. After I got 3 updates:1) 30mb, 2) 60mb and 3) JB updated OTA. After 60Mb update my phone said Samsung and shows unlocked lock. After JB update my phone bootloops again.
I though it it was a bad update and reflashed stock no root 4.0.4 and OTA did the same thing.
I tried the gs3 tool to flash the recovery and it always fails.
I would appreciate any help.... I have been dealing with this non sense for the past 24h.

Since you carrier wont load I believe following this tutorial with help fix your problem but check the conditions. Im not allowed to post links apparently so I attached it. I'll also flash cleanrom 5.6 and find out if its a software thing and get back to you. But it seems to me like its a MEID issue. So check the conditions in the link and if they are true I'd go that way. If not re-flash, clean install would be my suggestion. Yeah I run Cynagenmod 10.1 and it even knows I'm on Verizon. And Scott's roms always have the carrier.

I think you may have a faulty chip. Also is your battery NFC capable? But to be honest Verizon will replace it for free if your under the 1 year warranty and don't have water damage or anything like that. Because if it doesn't work on the stock rom it's most likely a hardware problem in this case. So I would contact your carrier about that.

I have the stock battery and when I did call Verizon the first time they wanted me to contact Samsung first then get back to them so I figured i'd bring it here. It had worked before so I was wondering if maybe it fried somehow? Phone has never been dropped, no water damage, watch because I said that i'll drop it in 5 minutes and shatter my screen I guess I'll just try Samsung tomorrow and see what they have to say.

Actually I just thought of something else to try. Have you gone in and force quit nfc and cleared the app data? That may resolve the problem. Nfc will be under all apps and it is named nfc service.

[Q] Camera saves blank pictures

I can see the preview fine on the screen. When I take a picture, the camera goes through all the motions of taking a picture but the saved picture is blank gray.
Happens on stock as well as AOSP ROMs, and stock as well as third party camera apps.
Factory reset does not help
Formatting internal SD did not help either
Front camera works fine. I believe both the SD cards are in good condition. (i.e. they mount, I can read all the files, transfer via USB etc.)
is this a hardware issue?
Any help is appreciated.
Sure sounds like hardware and not software.

Which ROM are you using now? Have you tried clearing the cache and data for your Gallery app? I'm guessing it's not a hardware issue since you're able to use your screen as a viewfinder. It's also possible they're just loading slowly; I transferred some high-resolution photos to my SD Card and they showed up as grey screens for a solid minute until the phone had a chance to load them.
EDIT: If you ODIN back to stock and still have the issue you could try contacting Samsung for a replacement.

I dunno. I've heard they're pretty good about replacing phones with bad hardware. I had decent luck getting my phone replaced a few months ago by going through AT&T (I don't recall whether or not I was still under warranty). If you complain enough to AT&T they might just give you an early upgrade (something they offered me, but I'd rather run out my contract).
wtf.. in cm the panorama mode works with the back camera but still shot and video dont.. now i doubt if it is a hardware issue.
but odin back to stock does not fix it. anyone? any ideas?

[Q] Why have my ringtones and music app gone haywire? (Problem Fixed)

My phone has never been rooted or had a custom ROM installed. I haven't really done anything to it since I got it really.
It's running Android version 4.0.4 and Kernel version 3.0.8
About a week ago I noticed that when I opened the 'Music play' app that came with the phone, under the 'All' files view, every MP3 was showing triples of each. I unmounted the SD card and removed all the MP3s from USB storage, restarted the phone, and that problem was gone.
A day or so later I noticed my phone wasn't ringing when I got a call and none of my notification ringtones were working. When I looked in Settings -Sounds - Phone Ringtone, I saw that all the custom ringtones I had that didn't come with the phone were listed in triplicate. I removed them all from the phone and have restarted it a couple of times, but even though they're not on the phone anymore they're still listed in triplicate.
Anyone ever heard of this issue and what do y'all think will be the solution to get things back to normal?
I appreciate anyone that takes the time to respond. Thanks. :good:
From what I remember there isn't any permanent fix. They always come back.

I first thought you were joking, but then realized you were serious, lol
I had no idea what he was saying and I'm not ashamed to admit it. I've never had the desire to root my phone or any of that stuff, and I don't know a lot of the terminology or acronyms that well.
But anyway, I fixed the issue. The problem occurs from not 'Ejecting' the phone from Windows when you've been accessing the USB or SD card storage thru your PC or laptop. I noticed that when I would connect my USB cable to the phone, and box would pop up saying that it had detected errors on one of the drives and asking me if I wanted to scan the drive and fix them. I did the scan/fix and the problem has gone away.
For now. They will all come back.
