Hi guys...
I'm pretty new here. I hope I'm posting in the right place.
I'd like to know how to UNDELETE files from the internal memory of an HTC phone (It's a Raphael aka HTC Pro). I think the way is the same for every phone. But I searched and I didn't find anything usefull.
I hope you can help me... The phone is not mine (I have a Mogul) and I'm trying to understand how to do it for a good purpose
I'm testing some programs on the Mogul/Titan (with WM6.5) but nothing works. I tried wm5torage to try to see the partiotions, but it's not working. I tried NORMAL windows (I'm using windows 7 x64) undelete softwares but they can't recognise the phone memory. HEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP
I have a working Android 1.6 on the SD card... Linux based systems are usually good for that things hehehe so any solution with that OS is good too!
I understand technical stuff, so no problems with hard ways Any way to dump the memory and undelete from image file etc... Anything... I really need to find a way. The point is: Retrieve a deleted movie that can keep an innocent person out of prison. And sorry for my messy English too... I'm Italian.
Thanks!!!

If the purpose is this, then you need to send the phone to specialists, who will take memory chip out and read it externally. Every "turn on" or every attempt to retrieve data by internal means will just cut off the deleted video more.
They will put memory chip back in place after reading and the service don't cost extremely too much. I remember it's something like $200
search data recovery from chip. there is more results.

have an LG KS20. Camera don't work. Phone don't rings,only vibrate. My mobile career is Orange in Romania. I bought it like 2hand. Other stuff work on it except the Office apps. I have data cable and cd. I must fill my simcard if i want to repair the windows files ?. Resco Mobile and Spb Mobile Shell are installed. Is somewhere a database where i can find missing files for my mob ?. If I change the owner name and email and write mine's i will lose the windows ?.i think about terms of warranty and period and stuff like this. i don't have SD card installed. Should I buy one ?. I think is good for backups.
I tried Nokia lumia first time yesterday. I tried to download an exe from Internet but it failed and said that file cannot be downloaded as this type of file is not supported by windows phone. I like to many downloads on my phone rather than computer( just lazy to go to my notebook for it, I can do it in my android while I am in bed or on couch in front of tv and later transfer to my notebook for testing). It,s so easy with android. It is not trouble free with iPhone but still there is some way to download these files and keep them on iPhone and then transfer to laptop via some apps( infact this I'd one reason I almost hate iPhone, too restricted applications sandboxing). Now I do like windows phone user interface but it seems it has gone on step ahead of iPhone in sandboxing and restrictions. You can,t download a lot of unsupported file types. I wonder if there is any work around? Thanks
Windows
When i had my Lumia i had to do everything by the computer. I dont think you can even do that? (Correct me if you can). You'll just have to stick with the comuter.
Getting rom builder onto Microsoft lumia 640 (Windows 8.1)?
Howdy all,
This is my first post so please bare with me
I was hoping to install a custom rom (android) onto my lumia 640, but I've been stopped in my tracks because from loads of different websites, instructions pointed me towards installing ROM Builder via uninstalling Extra + Info and then re installing it onto the SD card and then using the previously deployed app CustomWPSystem to replace it with Rom Builer, (I would post a link to the instructions, but it wont let me, but if you type in "How to Jailbreak and Unlock your Lumia Windows Phone" its the first link I believe, website is windowsblog)
. But this can't be done, I'm not sure whether its due to an update of some sort from Microsoft or I'm doing something wrong but the store tells me I can only install Extra + Info to the Phones memory and not the SD Card, I've made sure new apps, downloads and what ever else is set to install to the SD Card. SD Card permissions is green inside CustomWPSystem and everything else is as should, the thing is if I decide to install CustomPFD by modding/replacing the app Preview for Developers, it works fine and I can change the boot up logo, shutdown logo etc..
So after all of that explaining my question is, how can I get to install Rom Builder or install the android custom rom? Is there another way?
I am fine with having to hard reset my phone if needs so just tell me what needs doing and I'll do it
Cheers guys,
Chris Branston
It's not possible. What ever you,re gonna try you will never get an android rom working on a windows phone

Android rom on Lumia 640
Why can't android rom be installed on windows 8.1 phone after wiping out windows phone OS? Is it a hardware chip limitation?

No, hardware is fine for android but the bootloader is locked.
now the bootloader is also unlocked by WPInternels ......now its possible??????
Excuse me, but what would be the point of installing Android ???
You get as many Android devices as you want for all prices, while Windows phones are so rare...
I could understand years ago, when Android was just starting and people wanted to test it out of curiosity (or to show off) : then Windows Mobile was a real, open and all purposes OS and we could either multi boot on the SD card, or replace the ROM.
But now bootloaders are locked and Android is everywhere, so why would you painfully pick one of those rare Windows phone to trash it, while you can just pick any Android phone instead ???

It's not why, but why not? I'm pretty sure people will install it just to prove that phones can be manipulated and customised on OS level. Besides, I'd sell all my phones to get a 1520 running dual OS windows/android :good:
Oh, yes. I hear the 1520 is quite versatile.

Hell yeah, I'd love to install android on my 640, its a great phone with a brilliant screen for the price. But the windows store is way too limited. I bought the 640 to develope apps for the store on. But you know what? Since my neive hopeful self did this six months ago, and after spending frustrating days not having decent software to run in the device. Well, since i no longer plan to develop apps for it I'd llve to slap a copy of android on it instead. Dont get me wrong, i will get another phone and it will be android, at that point my lumia 640 will collect dust in a draw or go sit in a landfill somewhere. If i could get android on it, I would definately do that.
Old thread, but I can understand why one would want to install android on a Lumia 640.
$30 for a new unlocked 640.
Android on Microsoft phones is indeed possible. https://android4lumia.github.io/
Good evening
Best wishes to you all
Sorry for my Bad english but I will try to do my best to explain the incredible bug encountered and warn everyone about my problem hoping it will avoid you the same disaster
I hope you can help me even if I do not believe it anymore...
Since I was caught by the time I carried out the daily transfer (by car, in the night, eating ....) of my photos / videos between my old phone (galaxy note 3) and my new Huawei mate 9 and this in several stages over several days via bluetooth.
Since everything worked perfectly because I checked day after day that I had the same number of files, I opened the videos transferred to the mate 9 and everything was there.
But one day I open the files transferred on the mate 9 and there everything disappeared except the directory tree: I mean that the folder transfered are there with their original names but all the content have been deleted and the folders transfered are well there but are all empty.
Of course like an idiot i have deleted the original content from my note 3 as I checked a successful transfer: result I have so far lost a major number of pro and family photos and video due to some sort of bug Of the mate 9.
I tried all the apps of recovery possible on the Google store or on Windows (easus, dr fone ....) but nothing does they do not find anything (and I'm in development mode with debug USB activated after that i have pressed 9 times on the phone model)
I know that I proceeded as an adventurer without saving before doing this damned transfer.
But do you think that there is a hope that I can manage to find by some means those files that have disappeared miraculously but their folders are still there but empty.
Thank you for your suggestions
Small precision in case: I made these transfers on the session of my second user account of my mate 9 and not the master account originally created during the first start of the phone.
I noticed that these additional user accounts are attractive at first but in fact there are too many limitations: only the master account can send MMS for example in no case the additional accounts even with all the permissions granted, there are Other limitations too ... I contacted Huawei who confirmed these limitations for security reasons according to them.
Similarly one can delete at any time the additional user accounts but if you want to delete the main account it is absolutely necessary to reset the phone and it is impossible to reverse one of the secondary accounts into master account, you will have to reset and recreate as desired.
The more absurd for me is the inability to transfer files present on the internal memory between sessions of user accounts, we can only access the files of our current session even when we are into in the session of the master account we can't access the files of one of our others account.
You dont have your stuff backing up to one of the many available clouds?
amazon, google, dropbox, etc.
I would have mentioned easus but looks like you tried. I feel bad for you but take it as a learning lesson, backup important stuff. Get you a hdd, cloud backup and computer backup minimum. Never solely rely on a cell phone.
Huawei is big on security. Sometimes they get it right but if your 2nd user account was someone you didnt want to access your information you would appreciate the added security. I have never used guest accounts or anything but I remember my 2 year old was playing with my phone as she always do, and few minutes later she was in twrp attempting to delete everything. This was a 128gb nexus 6p filled to the rim with important information.
any twrp backups from previous phones?
Don't call it a bug because It isn't.
And also there are easier and much faster ways to transfer files out there.

Hello... about my problem...
I have contacted Huawei and I was surprised that they seemed almost to know the problem : they told me "you had a file corruption" at our stage we can not do anything you need to contact [email protected] with the following ticket number that we will create together ".
I wrote 3 days ago ... Still no answers ...
We will see ... But given the bad comments found on the net about the Huawei support I have no illusions ...
Last episode and season finale of my bad experience
I had the Huawei support by phone finally... They admit that there must be a file corruption "bug" on the mate 9 and they propose me to send the phone to a technician to try to do something without any guarantee to succeed and of course without lending of a phone replacement during this period.
If I can go back I will never buy this phone 1stly for the bug encountered but seeing the support recognising that it can be a real bug from the phone and not lending a phone... For a 700€ phone the support and results are very bad in the end.
Excepted this bug the mate 9 has many limitations and bad cons that I will explain in a video in a few days to describe why if I could I won't buy the mate 9 again
have you checked if the files are still taking a space inside the storage? or it is all free?
there is a lot of viruses out there that could have renamed or hide your original folders

Hi Michel
It is exactly what I think and after discussing about this the Huawei technical phone operator told me that it can be the files corrupted by the bug : yes I am sure that the actual storage is higher than it must be, at least 8-10 Go more...And that's why they propose me to send it to their technical support but without any guarantee to succeed and with no phone to lend during this period.
I hope that soon there will be a root 100% secure of this phone to do a full recovery deeper as possible but for the moment I don't know how to access this extra storage used that I can found exploring the phone in all the account users sessions or with hi suite or others recovery software (Dr fone, easus...) and I have enabled the option show hidden files and folders into ES explorer but no results
Hope you learned a valuable lesson.
Backup your data. Anything can happen. Bug. Stolen. Lost. Water damage.
I do have sympathy but very little.
