Requirements:

1.Android Data Recovery, which is a professional program designed for retrieving lost contacts, messages, WhatsApp history, pictures, music and videos from Android internal memory and also external memory.

Note that even if your device got damaged, it can still restore data from dead Android.

2.A USB cable.

3.A computer (This app also has a version for mac. Since the process is more or less the same as in Win7, I will only do it under Windows.)

Warning:

1.Stop using your phone right away. 'cause every time you add a new file may mean that the picture of a deleted file is taken. In other words, there is no coming back when the data are overwritten.

2.Make sure that your device is left with power of over 20% so that it won't shut down during the process.

Tips: Use Android Recycle Bin Apps to Prevent Data Loss 

A delightful day might be ruined due to data loss. If you're afraid that you might not be able to back up Android content at regular times. There are a lot of 'recycle bin' or 'recovery bin' apps free of charge in Google Play Store.

These apps claim that deleted data, intentionally or inadvertently, will all be kept in the app instead of directly deleting content. However, there are a few things you might check out before having one on your Android device.

1. Deleted media files like photos, videos and audio files are the main data supported to keep in the app after deletion.

2. Most recycle bin apps are not available for text files like contacts, messages and notes.

3. Most apps offer a limited storage for storing deleted contents and users have to purchase more space or become premium members as to expand the storage.

4. Other app data are not supported, especially like WhatsApp, Viber, Kik and Line.
