Can I recover deleted photos?

[kmcochran]

Asking for a friend, but since I have a N4, useful for me too. Friend accidentally deleted all the photos from her GNex. Is there any way to recover those files? Are there any apps that do this?

Edited to add: neither phone is rooted

Thanks!

There are apps, but I believe they all require rooting. Since you didn't lose any yet, this app might be of some help: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.baloota.dumpster&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImNvbS5iYWxvb3RhLmR1bXBzdGVyIl0.

Thanks! I did see and download Dumpster. My next question is, if my friend roots her phone now, is there any chance of recovering those files? And doesn't rooting wipe your phone? I'm fairly new to Android, so I'm not exactly sure what rooting does/doesn't do to the current status of the phone.

Your most likely Sol but the best thing to have on your phone is dropbox and syncs them to cloud. Unlocking boot loader erases the phone. Rooting doesn't. Also this is flash memory so every time u use the phone it's over writing the memory

Rooting ur phone does not wipe me thing from your phone. It just get super user access which stock rom don't give u. once rooted make sure you have super user managing app on ur phone and don't allow unknown apps or sources access to super user. In some cases it does void you warranty.
