Hi,
I did a factory reset of my android mobile after manually copying the data to my personal computer. After the reset I copied all the data from my computer to my mobile (Phone storage and SD card). But to my surprise, I do not see my apps, contacts and other details in my phone. Please guide me to restore the data in my mobile.
Thanks,
Kumar.

you can use some file recovery application like paretologic application or if you always online you can check google contacks to see your backup contacks in there https://www.google.com/contacts/ :good:
This is my first android phone and I don't have much clue. I'm on stock and non-rooted. I would like to do a factory reset, which mean I have to backup right ? How do I backup the contacts, sms, whatsapp messages, and app and restore back to what it is like before ?
Thank you.
If you're going to reset, Your Complete data will be gone including your Storage..
in This Case you Have make a backup of your data.
Copy your data from moto storage to ur PC that's the way!
If You want to backup you App data then Try helium data backup app. (google it).
I reset my phone so I can start anew (I do it on a whim sometimes). It did delete apps/accounts that I had installed and signed into. However, I noticed the regular factory reset option didn't delete the entirety of my personal data as I can still find folders associated with my old apps, with data in them of course. For example, I had Zedge installed and I can still find my download wallpapers in the Zedge folder.
Is there a way to fully delete personal data? Must I go into recovery or use the software repair option in the PC suite?

Make sure you clear the internal storage when you reset the phone
Thanks for the suggestions. I went back into the reset menu and noticed I didn't check the format device storage option. I'll keep that in mind as I still have loose files hanging about....
Hi, my phone decided to reset itself to factory settings (never had such issue in the past 6+ years!) and now everything is gone from the phone and from the SD card.
Giving the fact that the SD was not encrypted - is there a way to recover anything from it?
Or is the card overwritten with some 0s or 1s in the reset process?
(Any details about what is going on there greatly appreciated!)
Could anyone give some details if you were able to recover anything after reset?
Thanks!

I did a FDR on my S8+ and left the sdcard in as it's not normally wiped - but it was. There was a folder on internal storage labeled something like sdcard restore and everything was in that folder. Connect your S8+ to a PC and take a look or use a file explorer.

Thanks for the tip, but unfortunately my phone is completely empty as well as the SD card - at least it appears like that when I connect it to the PC (well, both locations were quite full before the reset, so it would definitely not fit there).
I was hoping to at least retrieve anything from the SD card using some low level scanning, but I see only 0xFF there :/
Connect the micro sd using a usb adapter and try with recuva or "getdataback simple" using the 4 star scanning (take hours but should find something)

Restore Factory Settings:
Factory reset erases all the data and information stored on the device to restore the original or initial manufacturer settings of the device’s software. If none of the above-mentioned steps generates desired results, then resetting may seem to be a viable option; but, there is a risk involved in performing a factory reset as it may erase all your data, apps, photos, videos, music etc. from the device.
Follow below steps:
Go to your device’s Settings < Personal < Backup & reset
Enter the PIN, pattern or the password, whichever is required
Under Personal data, select Factory data reset < Reset phone
When the process is complete, restart your device and restore your backed-up data
Note: Back-up your data including contacts, SMS, and other useful information before resetting your device.
This steps might be helpful to some extent and if the issue is minor. Generally, SD card will report such error messages due to multiple reasons, which cannot be addressed through these mentioned steps; therefore, if your SD card shows “SD Card Was Unexpectedly Removed” error, then you need a professional and reliable approach to recover your Photos and Videos back from corrupt SD cards.
In addition, there are some limitations associated with the above-mentioned procedures; but, when it comes to Stellar Phoenix Photo Recovery, there’s no such room for errors.
