Photo Recovery for Android
« on: September 22, 2014, 09:58 AM »
Hi,

Not sure this is appropriate here but was wondering if anyone has created such a free tool?  I've been searching all over the web, places like Google Play but they're all misleading and/or bullshit.
Cheers,
Keith

What's the aim here? Recover image-files from a damaged sd-card?

I deleted some by accident and they've disappeared from my Google+ page too.  I only found out they other day they sort of sync with it.  I'm not so sure they were saved to my SD Card...
Cheers,
Keith

Not there, but they were in my Google+ 'recently taken', until I deleted them instead of moving them.

You can also use the photo sync/backup features with other programs/apps such as:

I hadn't hear of IFTTT or the bittorrent sync but the other 2 yes.  I'll be looking at the former - later.

I'm ok Laptop and Desktop-wise, just hadn't gotten around to sorting any more than the inbuilt stuff out.  I'll be looking at that afterwards too.
Thanks Deozaan
