How to Recover Deleted Text Messages – [5 Methods]
Before anything else, we know that most of us are already fed up with clickbait titles that offer assurance of success for free. We’re gonna be honest with you here, the only way you can recover deleted text messages from your Android phone is if you can fully utilize programming and encoding. That includes being able to use the full potential of Android Debug Bridge (ADB). If you’re an amateur or have no clue what we are talking about, then the only way you can really recover deleted message and other data from your Android smartphone is through the following utility software tools.
So with that in mind, here are 5 working methods to recover deleted text messages on your Android phone as well as other files:
dr.fone by wondershare
One of the most popular and simpler way to recover files and data that you would normally have no access anymore is by using dr.fone – Recover (Android).
The software cost around $39.95 to be able to use the recovery feature of it. You will need a computer to perform the recovery procedure though. Additionally, you can try using the app after you purchase it but the success rate of recovering deleted text messages is higher with a computer.
The software is easy to use, after purchasing, install the software and connect your phone to the computer. Launch the software and perform a scan. After the scan, dr.fone will then provide you a list of recoverable files, data, and text messages.
Recuva by Piriform Ltd
If there’s one application that we can attest to and really recommend when it comes to recovering files and data, it’s gonna be Recuva by Piriform.
Recuva is a free software application that you can use on your computer. Unfortunately, there’s no Recuva app for Android but on the brighter side of things, it’s free.
Recuva User Interface
Recuva can recover files and data from various devices, from PC HDD, PenDrives, MP3 Devices, and up to SD Card, and Smartphones. Unfortunately, since it’s free, it has its limitations.
For Recuva to recover or retrieve deleted text messages on your Android phone, it first needs to have access to the phones main memory module through a computer connection. But as we previously mentioned, the software has limitations due to the security changes implemented by Google on Android.
With Android version 4.4.2 and later, Google has disabled the access to the phone’s memory, making recovery software tools useless in most cases. This also applies to all recovery software, causing difficulties in recovering files and data that are stored within the phones memory modules.
Although, it’s a different case for Rooted Android phones. Recuva will work on any Android versions that are Rooted.
UltData for Android (Android Data Recovery) by Tenorshare
Another recovery software that anyone can use to recover deleted text messages is UltData for Android by Tenorshare. This utility software is quite similar to the rest of the tools listed in our article. For it to work, you will need a computer, the paid version of the software, and a connection with your phone to your computer.
The software application supports all versions of Android. The only downside of this software is that they straight require that your phone is rooted. Otherwise, you will not be able to recover deleted SMS on your phone.
The software is quite easy to use as well. Simply download and install the app, connect your phone, launch the app and perform a scan. After the scan, it will provide you a list of recoverable files and data which is really nice.
EaseUS MobiSaver For Android 5.0
If you prefer something that can do the job without needing the use of a computer, then EaseUS MobieSaver for Android fits the description.
This application is readily available on the Google Play store. It works on Android 4.0 to 8.0, with the support for Android 9 & 10 coming in the future.
As we have already mentioned, this is the best recovery data app for Android that doesn’t need a computer. However, for you to be able to recover deleted text messages, the app requires that you purchase the paid version of the app and the phone in use must be rooted. Otherwise, you will be limited to photos and videos only.
Android Data Recovery by FonePaw
If you have an Android phone that runs on version 4 to 6.1, then you’re in luck. If you have a computer that you can use, then FonePaw Android Data Recovery is a great tool to try.
The free version will let you recover media files for Androids 4 to 6.1 for free but you will need the paid version if you wish to use this tool on a more latest handset models of Android.
Similar to the rest of the software included in this list, FonePaw also works by simply installing the software on your computer, plug your Android phone, and perform a scan. After the scan, it will then provide you a list of recoverable items.
If you wish to recover deleted text messages, you will need the paid version of this. Otherwise, you’re limited to media files only.
But in terms of efficiency, recoverability, and price, FonePaw is the least one in this list. Nonetheless, it is still worth including as one of the apps leverage is it’s faster scan process, wide support, and has more options to use for the free version.
