Recovering data on hard-reset?

I recently accidentally hard-reset my xda iii. Most of data was stored on my sd card (which of course i can recover). I want to know whether it is possible to recover other data, much in the same way you would with a desktop. There were several important text messages i needed.
Is this possible or has the data gone for good?
Silly me, didn't back up in a while...
in the flash part of the memory you can as in /storage and extented rom but not the ram they work just like ram in your pc == no power no bytes no memory of last state to undelete to
Ok, so there may still be some data in the flash part. Do you know of any programs that might help me?
Thanks for your reply
A hard reset will have more than likely wiped what was stored internally.
I suggest you get a backup utility and start using it, that way, if it happens again, you will have a full backup of everything you had installed, and all of the files stored on the device.

Stuck on boot screen. Can get into recovery but restores get error. What now?

I don't know why it worked, but I got a restore point I had previously tried to work, sorted!
The only thing I can think of was lack of space on internal memory, as I was short on free space so I gave it a go at deleting backups and freeing up space.
Cheers
This is why I try to backup onto external sd... Also, if you flash stock firmware then there's a chance it will wipe the data partition, goodbye backups....

TWRP - Internal Storage Backup

I know I did an internal storage backup with TWRP. I have extracted the system and data TWRP files and see all the apps, system, etc.. but am not seeing the Internal Storage. Can someone please point me to where in the directory structure the internal is? (there is no storage folder or mnt)

@SyCoREAPER I'm not sure you can backup internal storage with TWRP. If memory serves me right you can back up System, Cache, Data, Boot and EFS. However, having just woke up maybe I'm not reading your provided information right or possibly I'm completely wrong. When I back up internal storage I use my laptop or PC OS file manager.

You know you are right. I remembered seeing it in Wipe, not in Backup. Well that sucks turds. Google Photos backup turned on from now on. At least I have a partial outdated backup but all my TSO (Trans Syberian Orchestra) shots are gone. Had great seats too

Can I recover my broken internal storage after a TWRP restore of an earlier sec ver?

I made a newbie mistake today and restored a TWRP backup from an earlier security patch. Now, my interal storage is inaccessible and the filenames are gibberish, as expected.
Is there ANY way possible to recover my internal storage? I never backed it up to another location, and I would really like to get it back.

Yes, remember the version you had installed during the backup and flash that without wiping data, sometimes it's still on your second boot slot. In that case:
Go to twrp, change boot slot, flash twrp.zip (don't wipe data) and reboot

Will wiping system and internal storage of my phone using twrp makes all my data unrecoverable?

Hello, I am planning to sell my phone and I do have some information (like passwords, card, and pin, etc. which I recently captured using my phone camera) and I'm afraid that even I factory reset and overwrite my phone storage by filling it up with files, someone might still be able to recover it. Will wiping system and internal storage of my phone thought twrp makes it unrecoverable?
Overwrite the complete internal storage space with ZEROS and BLANKS.

What kind of information can be restored after the factory reset?
Hello, The question is pretty straightforward - is it possible to restore the data on the phone that had existed before the factory reset was made? If I sell my phone on ebay can someone get any glimpse on what has been done with my phone?
