How to Recover Photos on Sony Xperia E4

Sony Xperia E4

Like any other smartphone, Sony Xperia E4 has a camera. It allows you to take photos and record videos, but sometimes users do not have enough space to store such files. Because of this, users have to delete the pictures beyond the possibility of their recovery, or so it would seem. But fortunately, there are several ways to recover photos on Sony Xperia E4.

Via Recycle Bin

When deleting photos from a smartphone running on the Android operating system, files do not disappear without a trace. First, they end up in the so-called "Recycle Bin", where they continue to be stored until the moment when the user decides to completely get rid of them. Therefore, users of Sony Xperia E4 can try to recover the photos from the Recycle Bin:

  1. Open the standard Gallery or Google Photos (these are the two main applications for viewing pictures).
  2. Launch the dialog and go to the Recycle Bin section.
  3. Select the photos of interest and press the restore button.

Please note that depending on the application and firmware version you are using, the storing period for files may vary. As such, the successful completion of the operation cannot be 100% guaranteed.

Using a Dedicated Application

If the pictures were deleted from the Recycle Bin by the user or after the passing of the time period set by the developers, Sony Xperia E4 still provides a chance to recover the files. To do this, users will have to use special apps. For example, DiskDigger:

  1. Download and install the application using the Play Market.
  2. Launch DiskDigger.
  3. Start the image search.
  4. Select the pictures of interest and press "Recover".

When recovering photos via third-party applications, you need to take several things into account. E.g., you will probably not be able to get the full image back. Most likely, its resolution will be comparable not with the actual size of the picture, but with the screen resolution. A more thorough search requires obtaining root rights, but this entails a number of outcomes, so this method is not recommended for use.

Via PC

PC alone will not help you recover deleted photos on Sony Xperia E4. However, the problem can be easily solved with the help of special software:

  1. Download and install GT Recovery.
  2. Confirm the activation of the trial period.
  3. Connect your phone to your computer.
  4. Select "Mobile Data Recovery" in the app.
  5. Wait for the end of the scan and restore the found photos.

Unlike applications for Android, a PC has more advanced recovery options. Therefore, the user has much more chances of restoring lost pictures.
