Currently keep many files on our devices, such as photos, videos, documents, etc.. We're so confident that these devices may accidentally erase any valid file and need to recover it later.

In this tutorial we will teach you how to recover files that have been removed from our tablet.

For this we will use a program called Hexamob Recovery. This program has two versions, a free one called "lite" and a payment called "Pro". Both versions can download them from the Play Store.




Hexamob Recovery requires root privileges to run.

It is not always possible to recover files, depends on many factors such as fragmentation of the system, the status of deleted files, if the sector was overwritten, etc.. To avoid this it is recommended not to write anything in memory until the files have been recovered. It is also recommended that the recovered data is stored in another memory than the source, for example, we want to save the data recovered from the internal memory to the SD card.

1.The first thing download the application and install from the Play Store.

2.After downloading the application, we will create an icon in the application menu, press on it will open the program on your home screen. Then press on "Selective Recovery" and will display a warning that indicates that the destination folder must be different from the original.

3.We close the message and access the recovery screen.

4.In the "Search" we enter the scanning device, in our case is / mnt / sdcard, or, what is the same, the internal memory of the device.

5.In the "Save" and select the destination where you want to save the files, to be different from the origin. In our case, / mnt / extSdCard corresponding to the device's microSD card.

6.Then press on "Next" and the device starts to search deleted files. This process takes several minutes to complete, depending on the size of the partition to search, and the status of deleted files.

7.Then press on "Next" and the device starts to search deleted files. This process takes several minutes to complete, depending on the size of the partition to search, and the status of deleted files.

8.After a while (can take up to half an hour or more) we will see the following files that can be recovered. In this screen we have the files sorted by tabs at the top in "Images", "Videos", "Audio" and "Other" depending on the type of file you want to recover.

9.To retrieve the files we have only to select on the right side of the screen we want to save and press the button to "recover" at the bottom right of the screen.

10.Then the program will attempt to recover the selected files. This process may take several minutes, depending on the integrity of the file, the size and number of files you want to recover.

12.If we could not get our file, we can try another option that appeared on the screen was "full recovery". This option is not recommended to use the first time as it looks absolutely all deleted files and restores them, being able to fully recovered files to the device. Only use as a last option.
