i went to delete an accidental pic i had taken and hit the delete trash can icon and ALL of my pictures vanished.
How do I get them back? Help please!!!
Welcome to Android Central! What phone do you have, and which gallery app were you using? Was it the stock "Gallery" app, or the Google+ related "Photos" app? Try opening the Photos app, swipe in from the left, scroll down and tap Trash--see if the photos are there.
I'm not sure how you could have deleted all of your photos, unless you somehow did a Select All first, or unless you deleted the folder. Do you remember exactly what you did?
