The question:
Is it actually possible recovering your data on an android device after flashing it with a Stock ROM?
The reason:
The whole story is about to be told, and you know that you don't have to read it.
I went through a few days of hell (and apparently it's a waste of time) in learning how to get back my photos.
1. Lenovo Vibe P1 (16GB internal memory) with 64GB SD card, no root.
A lot of space and a lot of photos. "Job" Gallery, Personal Gallery, "Fun" Gallery.
I decided to keep my photos organized and moved my "Job" Gallery to my SD card, as well as all other files, that I wouldn't miss much if they would get lost, as it often happens with SD cards, I believe.
"Job" Gallery is what I sometimes have to show to people by actually giving them my phone.
In order to keep my Personal Gallery away from anyone I simply moved it into an internal memory Folder with a "." in it's name (Hidden or System Folder is what Android calls them).
2. Personal photos lost.
One of the popular "Cleaning\Boosting" Apps or Android itself (not sure by now) decides to give me an advice to wipe my "Photos Cache", which is what I did, sadly.
It turned out that it deleted my personal photos from the Hidden Folder.
3. Failed Recovery.
Downloading "Data Recovery" apps did not help much since most of them wanted a Rooted device.
And those that could work without Root some why just wouldn't locate anything from my Hidden Folder.
4. Failed Rooting = dead SDcard.
I already knew about how hard it is to root my device, not to mention that going Android6.0 made it even harder, so I never wanted to take that risk.
Now I sort of a had to try, since most of the data I really cared about was lost.
Downloading rooting apps and trying them out somehow killed my SDcard.
5. Failed SDcard Recovery = dead CardReader, dying HardDrive.
While using some Data Recovery software on my PC with SDcard plugged via CardReader, something apparently went wrong and my HardDrive started having one of those dying sounds.
It still worked though, so I could spend some time browsing the recovered SDcard data.
Sadly, those files where unreadable, probably because the recovery software was trial, so it made all of them "Unreadable Before You Pay", hard to tell by now.
I decided to try another Recovery Tool, ignoring the HardDrive issue for now, but my CardReader or the SDcard or both appeared to be dead.
6. Bricking the Vibe.
After spending some time doing backups of my dying HardDrive data, I returned to Rooting my smartphone, but by "manual" methods this time.
Trying all of those scary weird methods while actually learning all the stuff about "flashing" led me into bricking my device.
7. Failed Rooted Recovery.
Somehow, by following few guides, I finally managed to do everything correct (I hope).
I mean, unlocking bootloader by fastboot, gaining temporary root by ADB, flashing TWRP recovery and Stock ROM by QFIL, installing SuperSU, and actually rooting the device.
Right after, I downloaded a bunch of recovery apps to try again, but all of the photos and pictures, found by scanning, were useless.
Even those results before rooting were much better.
8. Failed RAW Recovery.
Surfing different forums, led me to a guide about using PC recovery tools on an Android RAW image.
While surfing, I have already tried about five PC-Android recovery tools and they didn't help much, but I decided to try it anyway.
By using BusyBox, Cygwin, NetCat, ADB, VhdxTool, I made a RAW image of my internal memory partition, converted it into a VHD and mounted it for scanning.
After using about 25-30 recovery tools I did not find any of those desired lost photos.
Scanning results on jpegs are pretty much the same for each tool.
Thank you for reading if you decided to do so anyway.
I also found others who did try to recover their precious data, like I did (after flashing and going through all the problems with rooting and getting a RAW file).
It seems like they all failed as well, so the question is - is it actually possible?
I know it's much easier with an HDD, since I know that those mansions usually keep ghosts for years, while Android totally exhausted and after all, killed me.
I really need help with this, since I see no more ways to try. If you have any advice, please share.
P.S. I'm sorry for my english, not native.

Hi techie friends,
My unrooted g2x is stuck in a reboot loop. Before I do a hard reset (power/volume down), I would like to retrieve my photos, which are stored in the internal memory. Is there a way? [Here is what I tried so far: I tried a soft reset (battery out) with no success. I connected the g2x to my PC but it is invisible. I tried holding just the volume down key and got a "s/w upgrade, please wait while upgrading..." screen. Is there any hope to retrieve my photos? I googled the issue and found nothing useful.] Thank you in advance for trying to help me! Catherine
Im having the same issue on a friends G2X... nobody has the answer?
hmmmmm, this is an interesting one. the very first thing i would do is get that phone backed up. you will need to flash a custom recovery(clockwork mod) in order to make a backup. search the development section. once you have a backup on your sdcard, i'd copy it to my pc. thinking.......
from recovery, you can try "fix permissions".
reboot. if that doesn't work, go back to recovery>advanced>wipe dalvik cache. reboot. if that doesn't work, try recovery again>mounts and storage and mount everything listed. see if the drives open up under "my computer" on your pc. for me, that last option doesn't work. but it could just be my pc or my recovery version.
or, you could flash any rom you want, and then mount the phone to your pc. then try running a data recovery program on the internal sdcard.
http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk
forget the link i posted above. it seems it has trouble reading the internal sd. but i'm running get data back right now. it seems like it's working fine. if these pictures are absolutely worth saving, you might have to dish out some cash for a data recovery app. but always use a trial version first to make sure it works. and once you flash a new rom, keep the phone off until you are ready to run a recovery app. the less that gets written to the drive, the better your chances for retrieving those pics.
or, you can try this... https://market.android.com/details?id=com.hexamob.hexamobrecoverypro&feature=search_result . you'll need to be rooted and have superuser app on your phone. but this looks like the cheapest alternative. i have never used it though. reviews look good though.
I'm pretty sure a hard reset doesn't touch anything located on the sdcard. Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but it should only format the 1GB partition where the android system is installed and apps are stored. You will basically be starting with a fresh install, but should still have anything stored on your sdcard still intact.

Hmmm,
Can't you just mount the internal memory via the latest Clockwork Recovery which is as I recall 4.0.0.2?
It worked the last time (the same option with the same trouble) on my Vibrant 3G

Actually, you are right. HR will not erase the SD content and I also think that it will leave the the internal NANDs partition intact. But I dont know where the pics in this case are stored.
Correct if I'm wrong.

Camera pics are stored under DCIM on the sdcard. Really any user created content/files (pics, music, videos, documents, etc) are on the memory card and shouldn't be touched by a hard reset. So I think youre in the clear if that's the route you go.

Hi all,
My wife's phone went into recovery screen (not rooted) when she turned it on after being flat. As a result it did a factory reset and with internal storage SD all photos and video are gone. Dozens of photos of our newborn son and she's beside herself.
Being Jellybean you can't mount as USB to do a normal data recovery on it as a standard drive which sucks.
Does anyone have any other suggestions as to how to get this phone mounted somehow so can data recover the memory on it?
Help will not go unrewarded.....
Thanks

If the phone was rooted I see there are some utilities in the Play Store you can download....
why did you make 2 threads?

This. But beyond this, you want to make sure that whatever data remains isn't overwritten. That means don't start installing more apps and taking more pictures. There are also professionals who make attempts at recovering data, but those services are relatively expensive. It doesn't sound like you're ready to root, but there are apps that can help rooted users, as the person above me mentioned.

You should be able to access the sdcard in recovery via adb shell. You probably need custom recovery though

My kid was screaming halfway through the first post and when i came back to submit, it asked me for my password again. Figured it didn't work so made a new post. Oops.
I have rooted my own personal one-x, dhd's, sensations etc so i'm not against it but i know if i unlock the bootloader through htc-dev it will wipe the phone again so i'm loathe to do that for the moment.
Just sucks JB can't simply mount USB like ICS. It would have taken me 5 minutes to get her stuff back instead it's been 2 days already.
I've now got the phone showing as a 'media device' in windows explorer with full access to the 24gb of 'sd card space' but still can't run a recovery program as doesn't assign a drive letter.
Going to be a long day.
Moved to Q&A.
Please post in the correct section
So i have an lg sunset, very nice phone. i rooted with kingroot and then i did a sd partition swap for ram. It didnt use my sd card as it should have and in result some how turned and took all my free and user storage space and put in into the system data folder. It just kept draining and draining and it got so low i had 1 mb of space left, absolutely ridiculous! i had no choice but a hard reset since it wouldn't let me do anything with it because the space was so low. Here is where the real problem comes in, a while below i did this with my sd card and the app i was using i deleted system app to space space but i also went into the system files with a root browser and deleted some of the system app's apks. so when the hard reset happened it wouldn't boot. well it did, sorta., after i used the hard reset menu i got it too the boot img and thats all it will go to, nothing past that, after i tried every attempt to get in to any other recovery mode i gave up since the the only one that is available on this phone is a hard reset menu, which i will attach a img that is of it below. that is the only recovery mode for this phone, i do not know alot about flashing roms and what not but i do know i would need a adb sideload type thing to even get TWRP on this phone and fix it. i think i need to flash new apps, i dont even think there is a download mode but still this is a pain in the arse, so thats my whole situation, is there any way to override this ****e and make it work? also would i t be possible to flash a kdz file without unlocking the bootloader? idk if there is anyway at this point and install TWRP and then gapps, any help with this would be a great help, thank you

Hi.
I mistakenly flashed my Android Galaxy On5 (using Odin's "AP" option) with one of the Exynos files. I saw something about "userdata" and knew immediately I had made a mistake, even though I did not load anything in the Odin "userdata" option. Why I did this probably isn't relevant, but I'm happy to provide more detail.
My question, however, is a simple one: Having done this, is it still possible to recover the user data that is no longer visible on the phone? When I reboot the phone without TWRP, it looks like it has been factory reset.
The phone is rooted, and I can see the device shares with "df". I can't see any secondary SD card based on the information I found about it sitting on top of where the SIM card is installed. I have done plenty of computer data recoveries from hard disk.. But every tool I have downloaded online for the Android seems to be polluted with malware, and I even reimaged my desktop because of all the crap I've tried.
Do you have a recommended tool for this that isn't some horrible marketing ploy? Minitool, Dr.Fone, FonePaw, and Kingoroot were all unsuccessful.
Also, if the data resides on an internal SD card, how is it formatted? I assume it is not a typical EXT or NTFS file system. Can you tell me which device I should be trying to recover from? It looks like /dev/block/mmcblk0p21.
If the internal storage is inaccessible, another thought I had was to do a block copy (with dd) onto a separate SD card, but I am unsure of whether this would provide a copy of the overwritten data, or would it actually reduce my chances of recovery.
The phone is a Samsung Galaxy On5 (SM-G550T).
Much of the data is non-critical, but some of it is unfortunately irreplaceable. Again, I'm really looking for a "yes" or "no" here, either data recovery is possible or not. And of course any suggestions on how to do it are greatly appreciated. The time it took to flash was almost instantaneous, but I also realize that flash drives are different from spinning drives in terms of how data is written and stored.
Thank you.

If you haven't any advice on how to do it, just a simple "yes" or "no" as to whether a recovery is possible would be greatly appreciated. There must be a few forum readers out there who know the answer to that question. Anyone? Bueller?

If you wiped out userdata, that means all your data is gone. I know for computers, deleting data doesn't necessary delete the data, but rather makes the space unallocated, meaning new data can be written over it. Not 100% sure if they have something similar for Android. If you have google synced with your account, you can recover most of your data that way, otherwise you might be out of luck.
Hi all. Apologies for the wall of text, I have a few questions following all of the background below.
Device info: Samsung Galaxy S7 32GB running LineageOS 16.0, NOT rooted; SD Card in question is a 128GB Sandisk MicroSD. All commands being run on computer running Ubuntu 19.10.
Yesterday, my phone gave me the "SD Card Missing" notification suddenly, and in the settings it said it was corrupted. I had had it set up as adopted storage, so it isn't a matter of just losing photos and such unfortunately - it seems as though there's important app and system data on it.
After trying several recovery programs to no avail, I came across this thread:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/general/help/corrupted-sd-card-adoptable-storage-t3801250
Which is very similar to my situation. Unfortunately I didn't find a fix here, but I did manage to make a full .img copy of the card itself, and find the encryption key at "/data/misc/vold/expand_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.key" as per https://nelenkov.blogspot.com/2015/06/decrypting-android-m-adopted-storage.html . The problem I ran into with this guide was that I couldn't get the dmsetup command to work. However, when reading the comments of the post to see if anyone else had the problem, I saw someone mention retrieving the files through TWRP. So, I put the card back in the phone, and booted into TWRP.
In TWRP, I was able to browse through the SD Card perfectly normally with the file manager, despite the fact that it still read as corrupted when booting back into the system. So, I used adb pull (side question on this later) to retrieve the folders I was most worried about - largely what I could find of app data, my photos and videos, etc. I did not just pull the whole card at once, and I'll elaborate on why when I get to the side question about adb pull.
So, here are my questions:
1. Is it possible to mount this SD Card back to normal through TWRP? If so, how? I'd like just enough so that I can restore my apps as is onto the phone, and then convert the card to portable storage to avoid this mess again. While I do have the data pulled, it's little things like NewPipe playlists that I've got in mind here.
2. If above is not possible, how much loss am I looking at if I choose to 'forget' the adopted card? Will I have to do a factory reset?
3. (adb) When doing the adb pull, it was unable to skip any files it couldn't copy - i.e. corrupted images - and would simply stop on finding one. This means that, for example, in one folder it hit a corrupted file after 3400 successes, and stopped without copying the remaining 300. Naturally, if I had just done 'adb pull /external_sd/', then I probably would have lost a lot more because of this. Can I add any options to the command adb pull to circumvent this? I was unable to find any decent documentation on the command, but maybe I was searching for the wrong thing.
Any and all help is much appreciated, thanks in advance!
