Hi,
I accidentally deleted a whole album of 300+ pics and a few vids in an Asus Zenfone 5 Lite (internal memory). I downloaded a program that recovers deleted files for android (Yodot) but it wont detect the internal memory drive.
It is connected via a USB cable, USB Debugging option enabled and chose MTP. I guess it will only detect it if it's chosen as a USB Mass Storage but I don't know how. Please tell me if you know how to.
What's the best way to recover the deleted files?
Please help.

Hello, hope I come to the right place to ask my question. What do you often do with mobile phone SD memory card RAW file system error? Is it possible for me now to get my left photos out from that RAW memory card? Recently, I just cannot access my 16GB SD memory card of my mobile phone and inner stored photos since it keeps asking me to format no matter whether it try to use it on my digital camera or Samsung laptop. My friend just says it is detected as RAW file system on my PC and that’s why it needs formatting before any access. But, I really don’t know such memory card RAW file system error and don’t know whether the SD memory card RAW format error recovery software recommended by my friend really works for me, like
icare-recovery.com/howto/sd-memory-card-raw-file-system.html
or piriform.com/recuva
or cgsecurity.org/wiki/PhotoRec
How do you think about it? Is any related memory card data recovery software really needed? Can I just format this memory card and do rescue everything inside latter? Thanks for any suggestion here!
Hi,
I have rooted S7 with adopted SD card (32 + 64 GB). When I choose "migrate data" from internal storage to adopted sd card, the camera crashes (due to "unknown error") while trying to save RAW files in Pro mode. If I disable RAW it works fine. Also before migrating data (SD card is adopted but not used) it works well and save RAW without any problems. Any help how to save RAW with adopted SD card will be much appreciated Thanks
Off topic but you can get adaptive storage with root?

Applications like Root Essentials offers adoptable storage option on rooted devices. There’s also a way how to do it on unrooted devices AFAIK.

Hello,
I am trying to recover lost photos and videos from my phone. Refer to this post => http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/help/help-data-photos-videos-documents-t3476374
However, all of the recovery software out there requires the phone to be detected as an removable disk (mass storage). None of them work with MTP device. I have a OnePlus One, running on Android 6.0.1.
Is there a way to show the phone as removable disk (mass storage)? If this not possible at all, please comment so that I don't waste more time searching the internet. :laugh:
Will it work if I install a very old ROM? Can I still recover the data? What do you think?
Thanks.
Can we ditch the HDD/SSD of PC and use smartphone storage instead?
Is it possible to create an NTFS partition in the smartphone storage that will be used as a bootable external HDD/SSD drive that can boot a PC?
Try this:
How to Recover Your PC Using an Android Device
PC won't boot? No other computer available to make a recovery USB? Here's how to create a bootable USB in Android without a PC.

I'm talking about using the phone's storage as the main storage also of a PC for daily use, not just for a one-time boot.
You would first have to find an old phone that has the ability to run mass storage. Then you can experiment.
You can install a Windows Emulator on your Phone.Look inside here:

Why not on Windows PC install the Windows Subsystem for Android ( WSA ) and run Android OS natively directly on PC?
The point is to combine the phone storage and the PC storage to one storage, to be able to manage your data in one place.
Dividing the storage to (at least) 3 partitions:
1. Android OS
2. Data (Documents, Music, Video...)
3. Windows OS
You don't need to manage your Data twice.
All your Data and changes is available to you at home and on the road.
You don't need Cloud or Sync solutions.
Offline.
What you want to get achieved simply is impossible IMO: in any case a server as MITM-machine is needed.
Only to have mentioned it: both the Windows OS and the Android OS store files in incompatible filesystems.
Didn't know Windows can installed on portable drives... I feel this is mainly a Windows question. I remember there was such funny thing BartPE.

If I understand your question, try the Drivedroid app, it can be used to make an Android device function as a bootable drive to boot PC from the Android device.
Also, there are some methods to dual boot on Android.
I'm talking about a situation where everything happens simultaneously:
1. First partition serves the phone to run Android OS. (The phone works normally. You can have a call on the phone)
2. The second partition serves both the phone and the computer, for User Data.
3. The third partition serves the computer to run Windows OS.
@Stamimail please answer yourself first
3. have you ever installed any Windows on external usb hard disk/ssd drive? Is that even possible? Idk
Yes, a long time ago.
Also a short internet search shows that it is possible.
I see there such thing Windows to go.

probably easiest workaround is rooted android device with MicroSD card provided as UMS.

In further reading, I get the impression that the big problem is that internal storage always has better performance than external storage.
I don't know why external storage can't be made to be as good as internal.
So the question now is:
If people decide it's a good idea, is it technically possible to implement this idea (that phone storage will replace computer storage)?
you can repartition userdata partition with gdisk and create another partition. this partition can be provided as UMS.
However, windows is known for dancing rumba on disk, you probably won't have much fun till emmc is weared-out.
