Problems with smartphones are quite common. They are caused by many reasons, which are not always user-dependent. There are also software bugs. Why does 7-Data Android Recovery not see my phone? What kind of program is this? How to work with it correctly? The answers to these questions are presented in the article.

Program

So, 7-Data Android Recovery is a program that was Russified not so long ago. You need it to recover data from a smartphone on the Android operating system. If, through your fault or due to software failures, personal data has been lost, in order to restore it, you need just such an application. The interface is intuitive, so you shouldn't have any problems returning your photos.

Beginning of work

Before understanding why 7-Data Android Recovery does not see the phone, what to do in this case and what are the reasons for this problem, let's look at how the program works. You can download and install the application from the official website. You will also find the PC version here. If any data has been lost from your computer, 7-Data Recovery Suite will help you recover it.

It is in this application that there is a special section for Android devices. The operation of both utilities is almost identical, at least in terms of the mechanism.

Preparing your phone

To try to recover lost photos, you need to connect your smartphone to your computer via the USB interface. As practice shows, it is advisable to immediately disable USB debugging in the device. Sometimes users forget about this operation, then there may be a problem that 7-Data Android Recovery does not see the phone.

Let's go to the settings. Here you need to find the line "For developers". It also has a USB debugging function. You may not find such a section, for this you will need to configure it.

Connection

So, you've connected your smartphone via cable. You need to open the program. A simple menu will appear in front of you, in which everything is clearly indicated and described. There are recommendations here that need to be followed. This refers to USB debugging and connecting via a device cable. Then you need to click "Next" to continue the configuration.

Before you will be a list of drives that are on the smartphone. There may be a section for internal memory and external storage. If you do not have a memory card, then there will be one section. You need to select it and click "Next". The choice of the desired partition depends on where the files disappeared from.

Then the program starts scanning the device. Upon completion of this process, the utility points to the lost, deleted, damaged files. The list may be empty if, after all, the device has irrevocably destroyed the documents. There may be a huge number of folders, among which you need to search for the necessary one.

If you find a file or folder, click on it and click "Save". If several files have been lost, you can put a tick in front of each and save again. After that, you will have to specify the folder where you want to restore the found data. It is recommended that you send them to your PC and not your smartphone.

Error

But the above instruction is suitable for those who were able to connect the device. What if 7-Data Android Recovery can't see your phone? This can be caused by many bugs. But most often this is due to the fact that the computer itself does not want to detect the smartphone.

This is a common problem. There are many solutions, as well as reasons. Maybe the wire is corny, or maybe there is an error in the PC system itself.

Debugging

This is one of the common options that occurs when 7-Data Android Recovery does not see the Lenovo phone. Some users miss the point that they need to enable USB debugging. This process makes it possible to indicate to our computer that we want to turn on the device in a special mode.

Depending on which OS revision, you need to approach the setting of this mode differently. If you have Android 2.3, then in the settings you need to go to the "Applications" section and find the "Development" line there. In later versions, there was an option "Developer options" right in the settings.

Starting with a newer version of the OS, you need to go to the settings on the line "About phone". Here we are looking for "Build number". This line is not active, but we can click on it. You need to do this several times, as practice shows, about seven clicks. Below you will see information that you have become a developer. Now the "Developer options" line will appear in the settings.

On newer operating systems, this menu may also be found in Accessibility. Here you will have to search in the settings for different tabs.

Modes

7-Data Android Recovery cannot see your LG phone because you have set the wrong connection mode. Some users connect a smartphone and see that it just starts charging. Of course, sometimes this is due to malfunctions of the device itself, but most often the wrong connection is selected.

You need to go to the settings and find there the menu for connecting a device via USB. Depending on the phone model, you will also have to look for this item. For example, Meizu hid this item in "About phone" - "Memory". Quite illogical, especially for those who have previously used other models.

There are four modes in this menu. You need to use "Connect as Media Device (MTP)".

USB

7-Data Android Recovery utility does not see Samsung phone if there are any connection problems. This is the first thing to check. Maybe the cable is just damaged, or maybe the problem is in the connector.

To do this, try changing the wire and connecting through other ports. If the program sees the smartphone, then the problem is clear. If not, move on.

Drivers

The computer, and therefore the 7-Data Android Recovery utility, does not see the Sony phone, because the drivers for USB controllers, or rather, for a smartphone, are outdated. To check all this, you need to go to the "Device Manager". All connected devices to our PC will appear in the window in front of us. We are looking for controllers, and in them our connected device.

You need to click on it and select "Properties". We are looking for the "Driver" tab at the top, go to it and click "Update". If there are drivers on the PC itself, you can manually specify the path to them. If they are not there, then run an automatic search.

Additional options

There are even less likely reasons for such an error, but still they should also be excluded. As practice shows, it is possible that the point is in the full memory. You can try cleaning and deleting unnecessary files. Perhaps the system is busy with third-party processes and simply does not allow you to connect to the PC.

If 7-Data Android Recovery does not see your phone, there is an option that the utility does not support your device model. Unfortunately, this sometimes happens, especially with already outdated models. If so, you can find other analogs of the application on the Internet. For example, Android Data Recovery is a good option. The utility is practically a copy of 7-Data Android Recovery.

It recovers data, finds lost files, returns incorrectly deleted ones. The program works with the Android operating system. Due to the fact that the interface of this utility is just as simple and straightforward, working with it will not cause any difficulties.

But remember that you shouldn't forget about the "USB Debugging" mode here as well. Despite the fact that many neglect this instruction, without it errors and failures will occur. Therefore, first, configure this mode. Then connect your smartphone to your PC.

After starting the program, it will immediately be clear whether she sees your phone or not. There is another option - to connect the device via a wireless interface via Wi-Fi.

conclusions

If you have lost any data, you can still recover it using similar programs. The question is: what to do if they can't see the phone. Then you have to sit for an hour or two to deal with the problem and find out whether the wire is just damaged, or the smartphone is not working correctly, or you are doing something wrong.

Modern smartphones and tablets are used to store information and process information just as often as computers. Accordingly, the problem of accidental data loss is no less relevant here: valuable photographs, videos, important documents - sometimes the loss is irreparable.

As with the return of lost data on a computer, the key to successful recovery of deleted files on Android is the exclusion of further writing to the media. Simply put, as soon as you find that the files you need are erased, you need to immediately pull out the memory card or completely turn off the smartphone. These precautions will help prevent overwriting memory locations.

Using a computer

The easiest way to recover files deleted on an Android device is from a computer. Special programs like Recuva or 7-Data Android Recovery will help to do this. But in order to take advantage of their capabilities, you first need to enable USB debugging on your phone or tablet - this is necessary for the device to be recognized in the system as a removable disk.

Enabling debugging:

If there is no "For Developers" section, follow these steps:

1. Open "Settings".
2. Scroll down the menu to the About Phone section.
3. Find the item "Build number" and tap on it 7 times. As you tap, a notification will appear telling you how many more times you need to tap to become a developer.

After enabling debugging, the smartphone connected to the computer will be detected as an external drive, from which you can recover almost any deleted data.

7-Data Android Recovery

7-Data Android Recovery, like Recuva, works without root rights, recovering files deleted from media. The only unpleasant moment is that you will have to pay for using the 7-Data software.

Save the found data to your computer, not to the phone's memory. When the recovery is complete, just transfer the files to your smartphone.

Recuva

The Recuva utility allows you to recover data from any media, incl. from microSD cards and internal memory of the smartphone. The procedure does not differ from the recovery algorithm via 7-Data Android Recovery:

After scanning, you will receive a report on the data found that can be recovered. There is a circle next to each file, the color of which you need to pay attention to:

• Green - information can be recovered without any problems.
• Yellow - the file is possibly damaged.
• Red - data cannot be returned.

You just have to select the files and click "Recover" to get back the lost information.

The programs EaseUS Mobisaver and Undelete for Root Users operate in a similar way, however, they require root access, so it is better to first try to solve the problem using Recuva and 7-Data.

Application use

If there is no way to recover files on Android via a PC, then you will have to resort to using special applications. The main disadvantage of this method is the need to obtain root rights - without them, the application will not gain access to memory.

As an example, let's look at the Undeleter program, which can recover files from an external flash card and internal memory. Unfortunately, without purchasing the full version, only the function of returning images is available, but if you are satisfied with the work of the application, then a small financial investment should not be a problem.

The application interface is friendly to novice users. You need to specify the folder in which the deleted data was stored, after which a memory scan will start. As a result, the program will issue a full report containing files that can be recovered from the phone.

It is often easier to prevent a problem than to deal with the consequences later. Deleting important information is definitely one of those unpleasant situations that should be avoided. So:

Let's take the Dumpster app as an example. After installing it, you specify what types of files are sent to the Trash and how long they will be stored there. If necessary, you do the same as with the Recycle Bin on your computer - empty it or restore accidentally deleted files.

The Recuva program from Piriform is one of the worthy representatives of tools for recovering deleted data (for example, after formatting or damaging removable drives). By the way, Piriform has made another good program - Speccy, we have it.

You can download Recuva completely free of charge on the official website. There is also a paid version (as of February 2018, its cost is 800 rubles), but it does not provide serious advantages. When installing, do not forget to select Russian and refuse to install CCleaner:

How to recover data with Recuva

After starting the program, a wizard will automatically start to help you recover your lost data. You can specify the type of files you want to recover, this will speed up the search (you can select the types: images, videos, documents, and so on):

Be sure to specify the path to the drive where you want to search, because by default Recuva will search for files wherever possible. It will take a very long time, and it will be difficult to find anything in the huge number of results.

If the files were simply deleted, Recuva will find them without any problems and offer to restore them:

If your drive has been formatted, and in other difficult cases, Recuva will offer you to do an in-depth analysis - agree. It can take quite a long time, depending on the size of the disk:

After the end of the search, click the "Switch to advanced mode" button, you will see something like this:

There can be quite a lot of items, because Recuva will find files and folders that have been deleted for a long time. You will be able to sort your files by type, size or location. It remains only to select the necessary files and click the "Restore ..." button.

Recuva is designed for recover deleted files, has a pleasant look, simple and ascetic interface, immediately after installation suggested data recovery

I have 2 in the hospital windows 7 is one for experiments :), so after an unsuccessful experiment, I deleted the system files (standard system file recovery did not help), and the system did not function properly because of this, I decided to try it all the same, although I honestly did not hope for success, since the program is free, and it is intended for file recovery of a different plan, it is unlikely that something will work out, I thought, but still continued to follow the instructions of this program

About system files as you can see, nothing is said, but no, no, I continued, I still don’t lose anything, although it is possible that there were some interesting pictures, or the video can be restored. recover files from a flash drive but we're not talking about that ...

As you can see, I didn't bother too much and started with data recovery the program started searching for deleted files on the entire disk

It took me about 15 minutes, during which time the program had to scan the dick and find deleted files, at the end of the scanning process, the flashing icon reminded me of the completed task and I opened the program

As you can see, there are a lot of files - there were lost, these files were marked in red, that's exactly what I needed to restore by selecting them all, I clicked on " recover data“I waited for completion and decided to switch to the“ broken ”system to see if it would function normally or not ... No, everything remained the same, only photos and unnecessary video were restored and some other documents, apparently, I erased the system specifically)))

Conclusion: You can try file recovery from a flash drive, but not system data.

Convenient free file recovery software(photo, video, music), as well as documents and archives from flash drives for phones and cameras and other gadgets using drives, quickly, simply, conveniently, though not everything can be restored, preferably hot on the heels of using the program, if deleted, formatted a thousand times this program, and others, is unlikely to help. And know that file recovery is better done immediately and not after half a year :)
