Deleted text messages... Can they be retrieved?

[jstwondrng]

All,

Have the S8+ and I accidentally deleted a text string of messages and wanted to know if they can be retrieved without rooting the phone.

don't think so... not even with rooting

Unless they were backed up elsewhere (cloud, SIM, etc.), I'm afraid not

Thanks for the responses. Oh well, I guess it was worth a shot.
