[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
If you're not rooted can you access them with software?

No guarentee the critical files weren't overwritten and I do mean files because the folder structure is already destroyed.

Even if you were able to, a jigsaw puzzle of disjionted files not worth the time it would take to reconstruct. Jpeg's missing their exif data alone quickly become a headache best forgotten if not that important.

One corrupted flash card for about a hundred RAW images on it taught me some things are better left dead🤣
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
It's not zero filled but I agree even if recovered it be a nightmare that keeps on giving. The jpeg images may be intact less their exif files; you'd need to reconstruct all other details from memory about the images🤣
[General Questions and Answers] cymro24:
How would I do the rooting to give it try ?
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
No, data recovery is definitely possible in certain cases, but not in the case of the data being formatted, this is a completely different type of wipe at a deeper, more thorough level than in the case of the data being simply deleted.

Deleted data actually still exists in its full form after being deleted, it is merely "tagged" or "marked" so that the system ignores the data, or more specifically, it ignores the physical storage space where that data is stored until such a time that the system needs that space to write "new" data to be stored. That data can be retrieved by removing the "tag" or "mark" so that the data can read, but only if the physical storage space where that data was stored has not been overwritten by new data.

Factory reset, on the other hand, is an actual physical wipe of the entire physical storage space/partition where said data is stored. This physical wipe, in effect, digitally "shreds" or maybe another analogy would be that it scrambles the data like a blender so that the data is disjointed and out of order so that it is torn apart and no longer readable because the ties that united the data into its cohesive, useable file associations have been torn apart.

It "might", and I strongly stress the word "might", be possible to retrieve the data but it would be a gargantuan task to completely decipher the recovered data in a manner that would allow you to stitch the random bits of data back into their original files. A difficult and virtually impossible task even for the best of the best digital and cryptographic forensic investigators.
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
So a factory reset toggles all the logic gates back to zero?

I didn't think it have enough time to do that even with flash memory.
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
I'm not certain on that, I'm not versed at that deep of a level in exactly what is going on at the bit by bit level during the format process. I would assume it would not be able to wipe the physical space to the point of being "virgin" space the way it was before any kind of data was ever written to that physical space. "Something" more than likely remains unless you get into deeper levels of formatting or "nuking" the storage space with multiple formatting passes layer by layer. Even then, some kind of data would remain but nothing could ever be pieced back together in any kind of manner. Similar to trying to piece a paper book back together after each page, word and letter have been physically cut apart from each other, you'd only have a vast collection of individual letters with nothing to guide you to tell which letters went with which letters to even form the words they formerly spelled on the page, to piece a paragraph or even a page together would be infinitely more impossible than piecing just a single word back together.
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
I'm not sure either my guess is it destroys the indexing system. Files but not folders may still exist intact. Like a quick format for a hdd.

I know when I do a low level format on a flash card it takes some time. A .5tb flash drive takes much longer to low level format than a factory reset takes.

All this reminds me of the Fred Gwynn line in Pet Cemetery: "Some things are better left dead."

Many times data recovery turns into a horror tale🤣
[General Questions and Answers] Droidriven:
If you were to use something like DBAN(Derek's boot and nuke) to run its highest level of secure wipe, it would take many hours to wipe a 5TB drive, possibly even days. There is another higher level of secure wipe that can be achieved by using a certain paid software(I don't remember the name off the top of my head), it could take up to a week or more.
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
The most I'll do is a zero fill and yeah that takes a while for hdds. On flash drives I think a low level format wipes everything, it can recover an unreadable drive. It's not a secure wipe though.

For hdds the 5# sledge hammer erase can do a secure mil spec zero out in less then 30 seconds🤣
[General Questions and Answers] :
That's correct.

Android's Factory Reset performs a Quick format ( as one knows it from Windows OS ): it does "delete" files from the ext4 formatted partition named /sdcard and rebuild the file system, volume label, and cluster size. It's not the real sense of formatting.

That means that Factory Reset format doesn't really erase all the data: they can get recovered unless they got overwritten.
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
I've been curious about that, Thank you😸

The problem with recovery being when it reloads the OS it could write it to any sectors on the flash drive. It doesn't write to the same locations in a linear fashion is what I have read.

So the files may be totally overwritten or completely "intact" less their indexing.
[General Questions and Answers] cymro24:
So how do I root the phone to see if I can find the data .
[General Questions and Answers] :
Rooting a phone's Android requires phone's bootloader gets unlocked before, what causes a complete data loss ( again ). So I think you can forget this. But it's you to waste your time with this.
[General Questions and Answers] blackhawk:
There's that and you may brick the phone trying to root it. The more you play with it , the more likely the data will be overwritten if it hasn't been already.

Best bet if you really need that data is to consult a data recovery specialist to see if they can directly access/download the internal memory via a chipset pin out.

Even if they can, the me$$ you get for your trouble will suck away your time like a vampire.

hi

i'm on android 11 (12.0.7). i use lucky patcher on my phone. phone start behaving strange. i restart it. it pass android logo and wait some time on mi logo and then show a message: "can't load android system your data may be corrupter ..." and give me two option. try again or factory reset.

i don't want to lose my data. is there a way to access to my storage and copy them before factory reset or fix it without factory reset?

what i tried:

1. flash 12.0.7 recovery rom. same result

2. try to temprorary boot to twrp to enabel mtp but after flashing twrp.img and restarting phone while holding volume up button , phone go back to fastboot instead of recovery.

p.s. i know talking about lucky patcher is forbidden in this forum but as you can see my post is about restoring my data not lucky patcher.

update: i was trying to flash twrp 3.5.2. i try 3.5.1 and successfully boot to twrp. internal storage was encrypted and twrp couldn't decrypt it(didn't prompet for pattern). but from twrp i wipe cache and dalvik and then reboot to fastboot and flash stock boot and reboot. after some time it pass mi logo and show "hi there" screen. after selecting laguage it stuck on "just a sec..." screen.

update2: i try deferrent version of twrp. v 3.3.1.17 by prompet for decryption. but it set to enter password and i only have pattern.

Hello everyone. I recently bought a Vontar X1 4gb ram, 32gb storage. I came with one of those generic wireless keyboards+touchpad. Everything worked fine except the Enter key witch always typed q. After a little digging i found a solution to modify the Generic.kl file to remedy the problem. So i used a root explorer i went and modified a file with a text editor but when i saved it sayed "Failed". I don't know what happened but now the file Generic.kl is empty and the keyboard doesn't work anymore. Only the touchpad/mouse thing works. I connected a normal pc keyboard and it doesn't work either. Did a factory reset the Generic.kl is still empty. Found the file on xda, tried to replace it and "Failed" Tried copying the text from the download file to the on in the system "Failed". The box is rooted and the partition is set to read/write. I tought about reflashing the firmware but i didn't find a flashable file anywhere. Another thing that i tought about is trying to connect the box to my pc and somehow to copy the file through the pc but i don't know how. Any solutions would be greatly appreciated cause i am kind of desperate. Thank you in advance.
[Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] observingman:
Hello; This is happening in the latest two custom roms I've tested, being havoc os for chiron (xiaomi mi mix 2) the latest one:

The wear os app stuck at logo, nothing happens. Just installed the rom a few hours ago...

Tried:

Reinstalled the full super open google apps from twrp (just in case something were missing)

Reinstalled the app itself

Reset the watch (in fact, it's not related to the watch as the app itself in the phone is the one that hangs...)

These lines in the matlog makes me thing some service or related thing is missing in the havoc os (and other custom roms) :

Right now I cannot use the watch, it's waiting to be configured. So this is a pain in the a**

Hi,

trying to install my eSIM from Orange carrier. I watched videos on yt that in attachment step should be list with available carriers but on my phone it shows only "scan QR code from telekom.de". Somewhere should be option to choose other carriers. What it depends on? Is that possible to activate orange esim on pixel 5?
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] bobby janow:
Ask your carrier for a scan code. Then try to scan it in the window. Where did you buy the phone, was it new from a carrier or 3rd party? You're not giving us much to go on.

So pixel isn't distributed in Poland officially. I bought it in German MediaMarkt. I have QR code from my carrier that works on my iPhone XS. When I am trying to scan QR code I am getting error with codes and information to ask my carrier for more info.

Have you tried it with a physical sim?
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] Damiatte:
I bought my pixel at Saturn Germany. I do not get that Telekom.de screen when scanning qr code. I have activated Esim with sms from operator KPN and later with T-MOBILE NL QR code. Just scan, and setup is done in 1 second. No carrier list or questions. Maybe you can check if your phone is sim locked for Telekom.DE only. Try other physical sim cards from random operator. If it works your phone is unlocked and the problem is not that.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] greyblue9:
Long shot here - I realize you probably haven't disabled any Google apps on the device but wanted to throw it out there as esim provisioning relies heavily on Google services.

[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] nispen:
Hi

Bit late with my reply, but: are you trying to scan the same QR code you already used on your iPhone? If so, that may be the reason. Many e-sims can only be installed once on one device. After they have been installed, the QR code becomes invalid.

Googli Fi works differently. You install the app, log in, and the Fi esim is downloaded to your (new) phone. But the QR code sims don't work like that and they cannot be transferred to new phone.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] Lafo-Mamone:
Has anyone made any progress with this? I have the same problem: the phone is purchased outside of the country where the carrier is (the carrier is A1 in Croatia) and upon choosing add an eSIM, the phone is asking a qr code from Telekom.de.

The phone has been purchased online and it came from Hungary, unlocked and it works perfectly fine with a physical sim.
[Google Pixel 5 Questions & Answers] nispen:
My phone did the same, only asked a qr code from Vodafone. When I cancelled out, I got the option to add a different one. I forget the exact method, I do remember entering a code manually.
