SD card recovery

This is a bad incident, as my phone dropped from my hand onto the ground suddenly my phone's display got cracked and the micro sd card of 8gb came out of its own from my phone. Due to sudden dropping of my phone data on the memory is lost.

Whenever I insert this sd card using card reader into computer it always asks to format, as a new sd card does.

Please help me to recover my data..

[General Questions and Answers] DoLooper:
Does factory reset make you lose root?

. . . and how does SuperSU/Superuser figure in? I've searched the main xda forums and am still unclear. Some posts make it sound like it's device-specific, some not. What I think I understand is that reset only clears /data. SuperSU installs to /data, but can be moved to /system. SuperSU is an app, not the actual exploit. I'm using SuperSU on rooted stock Amazon Fire HD.

I'm really hoping for a good explanation of how factory reset works relative to root, but here are some specific things I don't understand:

Could an exploit be in /data partition and so get wiped with reset?

Is SuperSU "hooked" into the exploit, and if so, does that mean you will lose root if you lose SuperSU?

So, should you always move SuperSU to /system before a factory reset? Is that good enough to keep root through the reset?

Is there a difference in what gets cleared when you do factory reset from stock recovery versus custom (TWRP)?

I ask because we can't use TWRP on the OS version I'm on; it needs signed recovery to boot. So to flash something, we install bootloaders from older OS (that can accept unsigned recovery) and TWRP, flash, then reinstall the updated bootloader and stock recovery (I think :laugh:) before booting back to OS.

Would it be safe/better to do a factory reset in TWRP--while it's loaded with the old bootloaders--or would that cause bad problems?

Thanks for your time!
[General Questions and Answers] :
Here's an explanation of how SuperSU gets installed:

https://su.chainfire.eu/
[General Questions and Answers] OfficerJimLahey:
Well,

The classical way to root a device is to:

Unlock bootloader

Install Recovery

Flash Superuser/SuperSU for root

This order allows for SU to be placed in system and be preserved across factory resets, often even OTA's. But there are not many devices these days that allow you to do that in that order, at least right out of the gate.

At this point, this seems to be the order for most devices:

Find an exploit and use that to gain root

Install superuser on /data to properly manage it

Maybe, just maybe, unlock bootloader, if not then...

...just give me recovery anyway.

With this way, you are at great risk of losing root SU through either of the circumstances listed above.

At any rate, sounds like you are deciding to do this. Any doubts and considerations may be best voiced in that thread.
[General Questions and Answers] DoLooper:
Thank you. Although aimed at developers that clarifies SuperSU, the /system files and the exploit. If I correctly understand what it says, factory reset will NEVER cause you to lose root. Is that right?
[General Questions and Answers] :
Correct. While it is possible to use the "full unroot" selection inside SuperSU settings, on some devices, this still leaves traces of root behind.
[General Questions and Answers] DoLooper:
Thanks for your helpful reply!

Oh, what's done is done :) The problem with asking in that thread, where i actively participate, is that we have only one person really knowledgeable about all this, so I thought I'd "ask the experts."

Unfortunately, the SuperSU info EvolutionTech pointed to led me to believe root would always survive factory reset, while your post suggests the opposite. So, I'm kinda back where I started.
[General Questions and Answers] OfficerJimLahey:
The key, is point two in the new world order. SuperSU does take the advantage to offload some stuff to /system even if the app was installed off the Play Store. So really (my mistake if I said otherwise) if SuperSU doesn't survive a factory reset, root should still. In that case, reinstalling SuperSu should be top priority as otherwise, any and every app can be given root privileges if asked.

OTA is a different story, all depends on the install script.

But [MENTION=5302753]Evolution_Tech[/MENTION] is right.
[General Questions and Answers] DoLooper:
Yes, this is the method we use. However, my bootloader is, in fact, unlocked. For some reason, the thread for doing this was deprecated so new members aren't unlocking. I'll ask at Fire HD forum about value of unlocked bootloader. Thank you.

This is great info. Thanks a lot! We block OTA of course, and depend on our one developer to supply instructions and files to do an update (sigh). People with Fire HDs don't seem so interested in modding. Too bad. It's fun, you can get your device the way you want it, and I'm learning a lot! Thanks again.
