I am here for some guidance and expertise in wrangling our cell phone issues. I am feeling academically defeated with tech. It just never seems to be completed.
I have inadvertently remotely wiped my wifes old LG phone; likely called a factory reset, I don't know. She has a new phone and was just using this old one for a game or two, and to store some pictures etc.. I thought it was my old LG that I was seeing and I wiped it remotely. Big mistake!
Can the deleted data be recovered?
I will start a thread in the appropriate forum but this is why I am here.
I hope somebody can help me. I feel defeated by technology right now.
Looking forward to using this forum.
Thanks for having me :)
 
on the plus side, you chose an appropriate moniker for the forums here 👍🏻 sorry this happened
Yah, it seems like no matter how much I learn I am still merely tinkering.
My wife found a way to sync the old phone with her new phone, or retrieve things from cloud or something so that problem seems to be solved.
I posted a thread in 'Questions' concerning another problem. Hopefully I can find some help with that one.
Thanks
