Hi folks,
In my wife's Galaxy Tab 10.1 ALL photos/pictures/videos suddenly disappeared. In one album was one single photo, the last snapshot made, which she deleted. It took a very long time to delete this photo, and then she realized that all photos, and all albums, as well as all videos were completely gone. The photos and videos were spread over several different folders, and there is no way to make a mass deletion of that kind.
What's even more strange is, I've tried different recovery products, but they don't work. I've tried to change the device recovery to Clockworkmod (different versions), rooting the device, communicating with the device via ADB, but it doesn't behave according to what's expected. Using Odin, everything seems to be OK, until the moment I start to write new recovery code. Communicating over ADB works OK, as far as I don't try to push any files to the device, then it just waits indefinitely. I can manipulate folders, move things in the device, etc. but write: no.
I'm prepared to rip the device apart to get access to the physical SD-card, so I can recover at least something with some good Linux tools, but I don't even know if it's possible/worth the trouble. I know at least that it's not possible to get any further with software tools (the BEST recovery tools failing utterly run from several different PCs).
If somebody got a good idea how to make a binary copy of the internal drive, I'd be very grateful.
Galaxy Tab 10.1 GT-P7500 3G 64GB, Ice Cream Sandwich 4.0.4. About 50GB free capacity.
Best regards,
Peter
