Data recovery on iPhone

Post by LostInTechnology » Wed Feb 15, 2012 10:30 am

Hi!

Is it possible to recover data from a formatted iPhone ?

My 3 year old kid activated the phone lock while playing with it and for some reason he cannot remember the unlock code ;-)

I called Apple and was sent to my Rogers store to no avail. Called back Apple and was rerouted to the Apple Store, where the friendly neighborhood Apple tech guy told me I had to format my phone to "unlock" it. Nice. Now I have a working phone but no more memories of my child.

Yes I know, I should have made a backup... Can I still use an RTT product to unformat my phone and then restore my personnal files (videos and pictures). I do not care about the contacts or anything else...

Thanks!

Mark

Unfortunately, Apple does everything possible to prevent its users from deep access to iPhone internals. That's why, although it's possible to download photos from iPhone when it's connected to a computer, R-Studio doesn't see it as a disk and can't access it for file recovery.
I know that there're some data recovery companies that work with iPhones, maybe they can help.

Can you suggest any of these data recovery companies? I am in desperate need. I tried asking my if they have data recovery services but they do not currently offer this. I would have thought that using would somehow offer some sort of data recovery in the cloud.

Thanks

You can still recover iPhone data it with the help of some data recovery software.
Take a look at below steps, which may help you to recover deleted lost data from iPhone 4/4S/5:
• Step 1: Select the device to scan
• Step 2: Enter the DFU mode and then scan your iPhone
1) Hold your iPhone and click "Start".
2) Press "Home" and "Power" button at the same time when you click "Start",and hold for 10 seconds. The program will count it for you.
3) After 10 seconds passing, release "Power" and keep pressing "Home" for another 10 seconds.
• Step 3: Preview and recover deleted iPhone files
Done!

Not all people sync their data, that's the problem.

Right click your iPhone in your iTunes' sidebar, then select "Restore Lost Data from iPhone Backup". iTunes should ask you now what backup you want to restore from, just select the latest one (should be preselected) and it should start restoring all you data.
