AC Question

I have a galaxy s3 and recently I did a hard reset after my phone periodically kept on restarting for no reason. Anyways, there's a number that I needed and I didn't save it. I texted this person monthly so I don't remember the number.

I've used this : "Android Data Recovery"

I can retrieve things but not after a factory restart (maybe because it's trial) but I'd like to know if it's even possible to recover texts after a factory restart.

Thanks
 
Welcome to the forums. Some apps like belodion suggested can save that sort of info. I would suggest using it and if they have a way to offload the backup to the cloud, to use that.

As for recovering texts after a reset, I don't think that's possible. A lot of areas get reformatted, and the call/text data is one of those I believe.
 
Data recovery can't be used after a factory reset, because the whole idea of a factory reset is to make the data unrecoverable (if factory reset is what you mean by hard reset. It actually means a full reset including the kernel - which doesn't delete any data at all.)
