HOW TO RECOVER DELETED MESSAGE ON ANDROID






If you've deleted your SMS inbox you have to act quick, because the messages are only until the portion of memory on which they are saved is rewritten. The longer you wait, the higher the likelihood that deleted text messages, app updates or who-knows-what will be obliterated forever. Here's how to recover deleted text messages on Android.

There are a couple of different PC and Mac-based tools to help you through this part of the process which we've detailed below.

The particular tool you choose will depend on your personal preference, but they basically do the same thing: scan your Android's memory, then identify and recover your ''deleted'' messages. They'll all walk you through the process, which is usually only four steps long: connect, scan, preview, recover. The process works for other data besides text messages as well. Some programs worth trying out include:



Wondershare has a free trial that lets you recover deleted text messages. 

Depending on which program you choose, the steps may be different, but the process is very similar (I'll use Wondershare for illustration purposes):

Download and install one of the programs above. Launch the program on your computer.

Enable USB Debugging on your Android phone. 

To do this, you need to have access to the Developer Options in your main Settings menu. If it's not there, just go to About Phone, scroll down to Build Number and tap it repeatedly until it tells you that you have developer access.

You'll now get access to Developer Options in the main Settings menu (just above About Phone). Go into Developer Options, scroll down to USB Debugging (or Android Debugging, depending on your ROM) and check the box.

First you need to enable USB Debugging on your Android smartphone.

Download and install the free Wondershare trial, then connect your Android phone to your computer.


Connect your phone to your PC with USB Debugging enabled.

Follow the prompts in the recovery program to scan or analyze your Android's memory.

Once the process is complete you can browse and preview the deleted and undeleted data on your Android device. As long as the particular part of memory on which it was originally stored has not been saved over, you can still retrieve the data. This is why it's important to act quickly if you've lost data.

You can filter the data you want to recover: in this case, text messages.

Next, open the 'Messages' folder in the left-hand pane, select the messages you wish to recover, then click 'Recover' at the bottom right to put them back on your device or save them to your computer for safe keeping.


Click 'SMS' or 'Messages' in the left-hand pane to view both deleted and non-deleted messages on your device.

Note: if you want to complete this process without a PC, chances are you will need root access on your device and more than likely a paid recovery app. In any case, it's easier and free to use a computer.
