Hi,

My phone went crazy on me a while ago during travel, and did a factory reset - wiping all information with it on the way..
I've been trying ever since to recover the files that have gone missing, but I don't seem to be able to make it work with testdisk. Something isn't working.

I'm able to dump the mmcblk using the command below:
adb shell su -c "cat /dev/block/mmcblk0" > mmcblk0.raw
I can see the 62G file that's created. I even see partitions.
That's where the fun ends.
When I choose "Analyze" to search for tables. I see all the partitions. Selecting the data partition, the one with all the files I want to recover - I see the below:

Disk e:\mmcblk0.raw - 62 GB / 58 GiB - CHS 7608 255 63
Analyse cylinder 230/7607: 03%

Until it completes 100%. No partitions found. Deep search. Same thing.

Any thoughts or suggestions on how to proceed with this?

Try PhotoRec on each partition.
Good luck

Hi,

Thanks for the suggestion. I've just tried it - i get a lot of txt files. However, when I filter for JPG files only, I get the following:
I've tried this for both Data partition, and whole partitions on PhotoRec:
