[Guide] Recovering Deleted Files - Android Forums at AndroidCentral.com Hello, sorry for the delayed response. I FINALLY got root access to my phone.
First the bootloader was locked, so I had to unlock that by using a program called "15 Second ADB Installer v1.4.3"
Then I had to get the unlock code for the bootloader... which Huawei has at a website at
https://emui.huawei.com/en/plugin/unlock/index but you have to have an account.
So I did that, got the unlock code, typed a few commands via the command prompt, then finally got the bootloader unlocked.
Then I spent two hours or so looking for an app that I could use either on my windows 10 laptop, or directly on the phone to root it.
I tried one click root, which didn't work.
I also tried towelroot which didn't work.
I then tried king root, again... didn't work.
I tried a few others but they didn't work.
I tried kingoroot... the phone version which didn't work. I then saw they have a pc version.
So I downloaded kingoroot to my laptop, installed it, connected my phone, then it kept saying downloading files or prerequisites or something.
In the end it finally rooted it in under 10 mins.
I verified root status through an app named "Root Checker" by Joey Krim.
It says "Congratulations! Root access is properly installed on this device!"
Device: MT2L03
Android Version 5.1
So now that I jumped through a whole bunch of bs loops to get the phone rooted what do I do now?
I have taken the sd card out of the phone the day I accidentally deleted the wrong folder.
I meant to delete a folder named "evernot" not anything named "emulated"
But they were next to one another, and I selected the wrong one.
Anyways some of the filetypes I'd like to look for are video... I think it was .3gp format
Texts would be nice but not required.
I don't need my call logs.
Pictures would be nice, I know I had some .gif and a lot of .jpg or .jpeg
I had either .mp3 or .mp4
I also had some .apk files.
What apps can I run on my computer to scan for these files on my phone AND the sd card?
Or are there apps I can put on the phone that'll scan both those areas?
Thank you by the way
