Hi,
I'm trying to recover deleted pictures from phone's internal memory. All programs i tried to use for file recovery only allows to select drive letters (like c. I'm on Windows7 32bit and in the explorer only shows up: GT-9100 > Phone and all the folders in it.
How can i do this?
Thanks in advance,
Chapas
I don't think that's possible dude.
Used Recovery Software for PC's, but in a phone? I highly doubt.
Regards.
You cannot recover from memory only from storage and thats Phone in Windows explorer when connected as USB in mass storage mode .

I thought it would be possible to map a drive letter to this GT-9100 > Phone.
I also don't have access to the microSD card, but if i remove it and stick it me card reader then it will appear with a drive letter.
Posts said memory . Micro SD card is viewed in the same manner set phone to USB mode and Connect Samsung cable to PC view in Windows Explorer .

I ran into the same issue. Download a program called FlashCrest Undelete. It lets you plug your phone into the USB drive and restore deleted files. I was able to restore a bunch of pictures that I sent to the trash can.
just google FlashCrest Undelete
Buy a software called Undelete For Root Users 2.0 for the device. It's great.
Yes, you can. Try this android photo recovery software which can undelete pictures from Samsung Galaxy phones: Restore photos from android phones
Here's another useful article: How to recover deleted photos from Samsung galaxy phone
hope this helps.

All the pictures which i captured from my S3 were stored in the internal memory of my phone. But unfortunately those pics got deleted.. and now when i tried to recover those pics i have a problem. I downloaded an app to enable Mass Storage Mode, it does not work on internal memory and it seems to be only for an external microsd… I really need to enable mass storage mode on the internal card so I can run a file recovery utility to restore deleted photos.. How can i recover this? pls help....
I'm stuck in a similar boat. Even on rooted CM10, I can't get USB mode. And there is currently a bug where it won't work in recovery either. I thought this would be a really simple thing, and it still boggles my mind why it is even removed as an option.
Connect phone to PC use Windows Explorer to open phone and sd card .

The answer is that you can't enable mass storage / UMC on the Galaxy S3, because the internal sdcard is not an independent partition, is just a subfolder of the data partition, unlike older devices like Galaxy S2.
You have to use phone side applications which are more limited of course.
Read this for further understanding:
[GUIDE] MTP and PTP (Media Transfer Protocol) vs UMC (Mass Storage Class)

You can, if you use DriveDroid, however the mass storage mode is limited to the file you select as virtual drive.
Hello everybody,
is there any way to have full access to the SD-Card in the Galaxy SIII (the extcard, not the phone's memory card) over USB without having to root the phone? The UMS-workaround with easyUMS doesn't work unless the phone is rooted.
Thanks in advance
No you have to Root.

That's right, but reading from the extsdcard is not the problem, only writing directly into files on it. Meaning, any file I open from there is opened read-only and this is annoying. Makes my wonder, what for do I have a card slot and a card, when I cannot use it as a mass storage?!

I can use the MTP option as a normal USB drive..no problem in reading or writing to the card..are you sure your drivers are correctly installed..

yes, i am sure... how comes you can write on the card? We're talking about the extSdCard, right? I can write files on it, all right, I cannot write into the files, i.e. they are opened as read-only.
Yes, that is a restriction in the MTP protocol; it can only transfer whole files, not parts (updates, changes).
Some apps are not able to work with that and will report read-only.
The easiest fix is to use, e.g. SMB Fileshare (which unfortunately requires root) whcih allows you to even mount the phone as a (pseudo)real drive via Wifi network without the need of a USB cable.
Hello guys. I need to recover lost files which was on SGS 3's internal memory. I have software on PC which could recover them, but I could not connect phone as usb drive to PC. Anyone knows how to solve this problem?
thank you.
Search the exact same question asked multiple times .
Install USB drivers .

Are you sure that I can mount internal SD card as USB flash disk to PC after installing USB drivers?
No you can't. There is no ums mode anymore so the phone will not show up on your pc as a drive with a driveletter. Your recovery programs will not be able to recover.
If the files are on sd card you can try undelete or stick the sd in the pc to recover.

Hi, I lost my dog yesterday and have accidently deleted a few videos and lots of photos of our last months together, these were stored on the SD card in my phone. I have a Motorolo G3 running Android 6.0.1.
I have spent most of today downloading various apps to try and get my files back, DiskDigger was the only sucessful one but it was only able to recover thumbnail size pictures. I have tried Recuva which cannot see my SD Card when the phone is connected via USB with the USB file transfer option enabled. Easeus can see the phone but asks that I enable USB mass storage to recover the files, unfortunately I already have this enabled when I see the message.
Would rooting my phone help? From what I can gather I only need to root my phone if the files I want to recover were stored on the phones internal storage, I am mistaken?
Does anyone know how I can recover these files? There are a few very special photos and videos that I desperately want back.
Thanks
No ideas?
