Any hope left?

So, in prep for another flash & modifying I did the usual backups, then whilst doing the wipes/resets I formated sd card

I've lost messages, pictures, music, settings, etc. I have my contacts back through Google but obviously mybackup, CWM & TB backups were all on the sd card.

Sorry if started duplicate thread, have I any lifelines?

Nothing has been deleted, it's just been marked as deleted in the FAT. As long as you don't use the card you should be able to recover some, most or all of what's on it.

Put the card in your PC (you can get USB adapters for a few quid - don't use the phone). Download Pandora and see what it can recover.

Free Pandora File Recovery - Find and recover deleted files of any type.

Recuver, from Piriform, the makers of 'Ccleaner' is also a decent file recover piece of software.

Thanks.

I've used both of these now and have got some pictures back and a lot of .zip files - ranging from a few kilobytes to a few megabytes.

Any idea or way of trying to work out if any of these are useful to me (other than trying to install them)??

You should be able to open zip files on your PC to see what's inside. Natively on Win 7 or try 7Zip.
