Help recovering files from a Blackberry memory card

#1 Post by blohan »

Hello everybody, last year I lost a VERY special picture of me and my mother at a Madonna concert thanks to some IMBECILE TWAT at a cellphone store, and I really wish to recover it, I've tried many other programs and no luck, for some reason they never register the cellphone card which I connect with the cellphone connected to the pc with a usb cable. I downloaded photorec and testdisk, and it seems more sophisticated, so I have some hope but I really don't know my way around it, I'm not tech saavy, please can anyone help me?? with a step by step? I'm desperate :(

Turn on USB mass storage mode.
Extract from http://docs.blackberry.com/en/smartphon ... 790640.jsp
On the home screen or in a folder, click the Options icon.
Click Device > Storage.
Press the Menu key > Enable USB Mass Storage.
If necessary, type your smartphone password.
