As far as I know there isn't a way to recover anything which got deleted while doing a factory reset.

I got a Vibrant as a gift from my relative (he recently bought a Tab), and i can't erase the data (gallery, his gmail account).
I have done everything that i know, from factory reset to wipe data from recovery mode. Well, i even downgrade the firmware to the stock UVJFD, but no matter how hard i try, everytime i restart the phone, the data will always restored. the applications i installed are also gone it's like the phone create some restore point that resets whenever it gets rebooted.
I'm not living in US, so i guess i can't get support from T-mobile
please help.. and excuse me for my bad english ^^
settings>sd & phone storage>unmount phone storage>format will erase everything
if you want to format the microsd..its there too, but you will lose Avatar if you do..

i't didn't work the pictures and gmail account is still there
there are 2 storages there ..one says sd card and the other says phone storage ...you unmounted the one under phone storage and hit format??? because there should be like 3 folders left after that..
i unmounted and formatted both the phone and sdcard storage.. to no effect.. flashing new firmware didn't help either..
hmmm.. yep.. beyond me then .. works for me every time so you might need someone with a little more knowledge.
getting hopeless

All you have left then is to root and install a custom rom. That will fix the issue for sure or odin back to stock.
Dialing *2767*3855# will do a hard reset. That may help.

The problem is right there, I even could not do "re-install package" in the recovery mode because all data I kept in the internal sdcard will always be vanished if I reboot the phone,, I tried to mount the internal sdcard in the PC, then format the drive. It can be formatted, but after I rebooted the phone all the previous data come back. That's the problem

Sounds like you need to get cwm recovery on there and format sdcards internal and external then reflash with Odin just to be safe

You tried using kies and you want to use the factory reset, so I'm guessing you are not rooted right?

Copy the important files from the internal and external memory to your pc and do a data factory reset in settings, backup and restore. Best is to reflash the rom with Odin. See my siganture for roms and tutorial for Odin. Good luck

Factory reset won't touch your phones internal SD so you don't need to back up to your pc

Though I would, if you flash a stock rom most are wipe roms that will wipe the internal sd card... This is how I do a restock...

Copy the backup to ur pc as restoring to factory Rom will wipe internal memory.
After installing Rom u can copy back the titanium backup folder.

There is an app called undelete try that.
Not going to work and it's not samsung's fault. Android has moved away from UMS and is strictly using MTP.
And none of the undelete apps in the market work on mtp devices so I wouldn't waste your time.

I've used this with success for recovering files from my phone, not tried it on my tab but can't see why it wouldn't work for you.

Swyped from my finger to your face, on my Samsung Galaxy Note.
Try the undelete option from the tuneup utilities software with the tab mounted via cwm.
I've recovered some files from a USB pen drive some months back.
might help

One good way to recover deleted files from Samsung galaxy tab 10.1 is to use an android data recovery software, see this guide: How to recover files from Samsung galaxy tab
Good luck.

I'm going to say that it can't be done. Deleting a file on android means it's gone forever. No recycling bin, no seccond chances. Sorry man. In the future do an automatic backup to Google Drive, then at least your pictures and videos will be safe.
Hey guys,
A friend of mine has done the factory reset from the settings and lost all his photos accidentally. He hasn't backed up any of the data via CWM recovery or on the cloud. Basically he has no option of recovering data except his phone. What I wanted to know is if you do the factory reset is there any possibility of recovering the data.
There are a few undelete apps, could give them a try or failing that you can try connecting the phone up to a laptop/PC and trying to use software like Recuva.
connecting to a pc will not work with the internal sd

Why not? Because of MTP or...?
yes. recuva and the like can only work with UMS

This is impossible. The Factory reset only deletes your installed Apps and data BUT no personal data that is stored on the internal sd card. Did you flash a ROM after this? If yes, was it CyanogenMod 10.1 or AOKP?

I used the Samsung Galaxy S3 ToolKit v7 to download and flash stock ROM since I wanted to go back for a while to test battery life, after it had flashed the stock ROM I checked and all the files was still there but TouchWiz and something else kept crashing so I went to 'Settings -> Back up and reset -> Factory data reset'. After this all files on internal sd are gone. I thought that it didn't delete them or I would have made a backup.
All I'm really bothered about is my Titanium backup files
Well you're outta luck. It warns you beforehand that it wipes all the internal memory... Sorry.

Why all your apps should still be available from the market .
TB backups can be set to EXT SD and also copied to a PC .

I know they're on the market, just takes longer having to download and log back into the apps and some are fairly big games, lost the game saves as well. I wanted the sms messages mainly, never mind, will be more careful next time.

This is why you use external SD for those backups and ALWAYS make a backup.
