Huawei Anroid 8 Phone file recovery problems
Posted: 27 Jan 2019, 10:09
Environment:
Linux Mint 19 Tara Default Configuration
Phone: Huawei p smart FIG-LX1, o/s anroid 8.0.0, Not Encypted
I am trying to retrieve deleted files off my mobile phone.
I have set the phone into USB Debugging mode and connected to PC
USB Configuration = MTP
The phone auto mounts successfully as
HiSuite
FIG LX1
HiSuite contains the following files
Autorun.inf
Document
HiSuiteDownLoader.exe
HiSuite.ico
FIG LX1 contains
Internal Storage
SD Card
Internal Storage contains the following files
Alarms,Android,backups,baidu,com.danale.unify,com.danale.video,DanaleCamera,DCIM,Download,HiDisk,Huawei,HuaweiSystem,internalstorage.txt
log,Mob,Movies,Music,Notifications,Pictures,Podcasts,Ringtones,Sounds,WhatsAppard
I am able to access any of the above files and folders
SD Card - empty
Running sudo photorec_static (PhotoRec 7.1-WIP) displays the following options
1. Disk /dev/sda - 1000 GB / 931 GiB (RO) - ST1000LM035-1RK172
2. Disk /dev/sr1 - 3385 KB / 3306 KiB (RO) - Linux File-CD Gadget
I select 2, then get only
> P ISO 0 0 1 1652 0 1 1653 [HISUITE]
I select above (P ISO), then I select
>[ Other ] FAT/NTFS/HFS+/ReiserFS/...
I select directory for recovered files and then the following is displayed
Disk /dev/sr1 - 3385 KB / 3306 KiB (RO) - Linux File-CD Gadget
Partition Start End Size in sectors
P ISO 0 0 1 1652 0 1 1653 [HISUITE]
7 files saved in /home/broc/Documents/recup_dir directory.
Recovery completed.
The recup_dir directory only contains the following files
f0000113_HiSuiteDownLoader_EXE,f0001069.pdf,f0001165.icns,f0001189.pdf,f0001511.plist,f0001515.plist,f0001545.icns,report.xml
For some reason the PhotoRec utility does not appear to be able to access the main Internal Storage of the phone.
My wife has the same phone and results in exactly the same recovered files.
I know that I have many deleted pics and video clips, but the utility does not appear to be able to recover them.
Am I doing something wrong?
Any help would be much apreciated.
Thank you
