Recover lost cell phone pictures

[armyvetsteve]

Good Day everyone! New poster here. I have a Samsung SCH-A870 and I have deleted all my pictures. I need to know if there are any freeware downloads I can use to get them back? I have a USB data cord for this phone and need to know if I need anything else to use with the software if there is any software out there I can use. New to computers and need help. Thanks so much if anyone can help.

If the pictures are saved in memory card, take it out and put it into a card reader. Connect the card reader to your computer and use PC Inspector Smart Recovery.

If it's saved in your phone's memory, then I guess the chances of recovering it back is pretty slim.

Thanks Raymond, the ACH-A870 must have a built in memory only. no external card.

I used to rely on a powerful software called Oxygen for Nokia but I am sure they manage other brands.
Try http://download.cnet.com/Oxygen-Phone-Manager-II-for-Nokia-Phones/3000-2074_4-10054658.html or go to the editor website, may you'll find something

Been lurking around here for a long time now but decided to register to try to help.

I used to use the free photo recovery software from Convar as mentioned by Raymond. http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/Back-Up-and-Recovery/smart-recovery.shtml

Hi,
I realize the suggestion I made are far from being freeware. If you see a flash disk when you connect your PC to your mobile, and if the data was stored there, you may try :
- Recuva from Piriform
- Easeus as indicated previously, if you can grab a free license,
- DiskDigger, from http://dmitrybrant.com/diskdigger, very powerful (Easeus is too).
