OK! Don't panic! Nowadays, the deleted files on a phone memory card are not actually destroyed immediately as we think. They are still there and become invisible. You do have chances to get them all back as long as they are not overwritten by anything new on the same phone memory card. So, you need to act carefully to get back your deleted files:
Firstly, Pick out the phone memory card immediately in case that any new file on it would overwrite your deleted files there.
Secondly, insert this phone memory card to a computer via a card Reader.
Thirdly, download a phone memory card data recovery freeware to restore all your deleted files back for free:
http://blog4mark.blogspot.com/2012/12/deleted-files-recovery.html
This data recovery freeware can deeply scan your phone memory card and easily get back all your wanted files back in the same way as it completely regained all the data of my friend back from this formatted Samsung phone.
If you are interested, you can download this phone memory card data recovery freeware here:
http://www.icare-recovery.com/free/samsung-galaxy-recovery.html

Fourthly, save and back up every restored file on another memory card or drive in case of data recovery failure.
Good luck!

you could retreive themif you have not written or downloaded any and saved more to your hard drivehttp://majorgeeks.com/Free_File_Recovery_d6792.html
Free File Recovery is a small and easy to use application that will help you to restore files that have been accidentally deleted from your computer. This includes files emptied from the Recycle bin as well as images and other files that have been deleted by user errordigital cameraHi there, my HtC chacha was low on memory and - clip_image001.gifmemory cards or MP3 players. It will even bring back files that have been deleted from your iPod, or by bugs, crashes and viruses!

http://majorgeeks.com/NTFS_Undelete_d5532.html
NTFS Undelete is free software that allows you to recover deleted files. It recovers files directly from hard drive, and it will work even if you empty Recycle Bin.
Before downloading NTFS Undelete, please consider the following:
When you delete a file, its content physically remains intact on the media, but the occupied space becomes marked as free. Next file saved to the disk may overwrite the contents of the deleted file.
It is very important to make sure that no application writes to the drive or partition where deleted file is located since every new file (even a small one) may overwrite the deleted file.


hope this helps you

How do i recover my deleted photos

First thing to note is that the deleted data on the phone will remain there until something new is saved and overwrites it. This might not happen immediately but eventually, after continued use, it will.
Either connect the phone straight to a PC using a USB cable (if supplied with the phone) or take the card out and put it in a card reader attached to the PC. You should see memory card shown as a drive letter (like H:) in Windows Explorer.

Then try some photo recovery software on the PC and follow this article: how to undelete photos from memory card

This should recognise the phone or card and then you can scan it using the free download of some good photo recovery software. That will show you what files still exist on the phone or card and what can be recovered.

Deleted photos by mistake Is there anyway of

You can often successfully recover deleted photos from a PC, phone or camera memory card or USB Memory stick, it just depends on what's happened since the files were deleted.
When you delete files the data itself isn't deleted, just the index entry that says where the data for those files is located. The space containing the deleted files is also now marked as free space so it is available to the system for any new files to be written there instead.

If and when that happens, then it becomes too late to recover your deleted files so it is very, very important to not save any new files or data to the device concerned.
If the deleted files are on a memory card or USB memory stick, just don't save any new files to it.

One of the easiest ways to see if you can recover deleted files is to try some file recovery software. Recommended this data recovery as it saved my life many times.
