Data recovery after hard reset???

My Z22 crashed and wouldn't respond to screen taps. Soft resets didn't help, so I had to do a hard reset. The device still does not work. Before I throw it away, does anyone know of a data recovery app that will recover my data? thanks, david

Have you been doing regular HotSyncs as instructed by the documentation included with the device? If so, just do another HotSync and your data will return!
If not, then I'm afraid your data is lost.

Data recovery after hard drive crash.

I've been using Palm Desktop Software 4.1.4 basically as a great Index Card app. My hard drive died but I recovered my DAT files from backups. On a new computer (Windows 7 x64) I reinstalled PDF 4.1.4 and added my .DAT files, but the software doesn't recognize them--nor will it allow me to use the User Names from the original installation. I tried re-installation x3 with no success--I repeated the process with the 6xx version of PDF, again with no success.
Is there any way I can retrieve my data and avoid having to re-type all of them?
Thanks. Haddox Sothoron

1.
If you can boot, try using a linux liveCD like systemrescue. Use a flash drive to copy everything to the flash drive.
2.
If you can't boot, then you can try connecting the drive from another computer - not sure how that works, but it has
been done before.
Here's some links from my website,

Data recovery after factory reset

I have seen people write that data recovery was possible after factory reset below the jelly bean OS versions on android but iphone is impossible.
So I wonder what is security technology for data protection on iphone.
Let me know security technology. (data encryption, data fromat algorithm, whatever about data protection)

Follou-up..... reading other questions/answers on this forum seem to indicate I'll have to "cherry pick" specific saved data items from the desktop "Shortcut to System Recovery Files" --- a long process. Is there a quicker way???

Data Recovery After Hard Drive Failure!

Ok, basically, I've got a 2 1/2 year old iBook G4 with a bombed hard drive, and unfortunately, the last time I backed up was around 3 months ago. Here's what happened right before the crash: some applications like Widgets and Safari were acting fluky, and it wouldn't let me open Word documents, so I restarted, because I thought it might have something to do with the fact that i had downloaded the new version of itunes not that long ago and hadn't restarted since. well, when i restarted, the gray screen with the wheel and the apple symbol went on for a really long time, and then the blue screen came up with the cursor, but nothing else happened, and the blue screen just stayed there. as far as i know, the hard drive wasn't making any unusual noises, just the usual occasional soft sounds that my hard drive has always made (there are usual sounds, right?) a piece of information that might be useful is that the hard drive was almost full (it only had about 5 GB left, which i understand is how much you should leave) could this have caused the failure maybe? anyway, i tried using the hard drive as a target and tried getting another computer to recognize it and pull the files off, but that didn't work. so, i brought it into the apple store, and they got it to boot up but using some external hard drive, i think. they tried disk utility, but that didn't see my hard drive. then the tried disk warrior, and that saw it and repaired it or something, but then it couldn't get the drive to mount. so, i'm assuming that because disk warrior didn't work and couldn't get it to mount, then other software like data rescue, etc... won't either. like all computer users, i've got some REALLY REALLY important data on there, and all the data recovery places i've gotten quotes from are pretty pricey. if the drive doesn't require physical data recovery, only non-physical, as i hope, the cheapest is still $350. even so, the person on the phone there didn't seem to know nearly as much as the people at the more pricier places. so, are there any other options besides expensive data recovery? i read something about using dd - a unix thing, but i don't know the first thing about it (http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20050302225659382) so i'm not sure i want to risk messing it up even more. and, if worse comes to worst, then i'll use a data recovery place... but can anyone tell me if they've used any of the data recovery companies below, and which ones are good?
(first three do evaluation for free, and then you decide if you want to continue based on more accurate price idea)
MacintoshDataRecovery.com
$500 non physical
$1100-1600 physical
Heroic Efforts
http://www.heroicdata.com/data_recovery
$350 non physical
ships to another (very expensive) place if physical
ACS Data Recovery
http://www.acsdata.com/index.htm
$600-700 non physical
DriveSavers.com
(recommended by Apple, probably the best, but the most steep, too)
could cost anywhere from $500-$2700 and $200 evaluation fee even if data is unrecoverable
Since this is our fourth hard drive failure in four different iBooks in 2 1/2 years, i am starting to become seriously disillusioned about the quality of the hardware Apple uses...not that i would ever get a dell or anything, but still....
THANK YOU in advance for any tips you might be able to offer, and also for reading this extremely long post!

I have read good reports concerning Data Rescue although I have not used it myself.
Once you get your data back, focus on a regular (even daily) backup routine, because as you know only so well, the question is not if a drive will fail, it's when.
My condolences, by the way.

8350i uncaught exception java.lang.NullPointerException after hard reset

basic info:
8350i
v4.6.1.204 (Platform 3.0.0.73)
Desktop Manager 4.7
everything is good except that i've been using two batteries, one in the phone and one in a charger. when the phone's battery is almost drained i swap it with the charged one which of course causes a hard reset.
this procedure was working well for at least a week or two until last month when i swapped batteries - after the hard reset i got
uncaught exception: java.lang.NullPointerException
i could make calls but all other software seemed corrupted... virtually nothing else worked... icons missing etc.
tried all sorts of solutions but the only thing that fixed it was a full on device software erase/reload, then a data restore from previous backup. at the time i figured it was just a random thing and was glad to learn how to do a complete software reload.
then yesterday it happened again (again, immediately at the end of the security check after hard reset). now i'm afraid to swap batteries because it would appear that every time i hard reset there is a 10% (my guess) chance of software corruption and a complete reload takes a significant amount of time.
has anybody else noticed this? does anybody have a solution?
can i swap batteries without a hard reset; i.e. swap while plugged into power? i haven't tried this yet for fear of causing my BB harm.
any help is appreciated,
john d.

Hello, John.
Make selective backup as it is described here:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/rim/board/message?board.id=8100&view=by_date_ascending&message.i...
Backup only information that you need.
There is described the purpose of every database you can observe when you're doing the selective backup:

When you have done selective backup do the following.
On your device go to: Options - Security Options - General Settings
Open menu and select "Wipe handheld"

N8 Cant remove Topapps even after hard reset

Hi,
Few hours ago I just bought a new N8. It has in it TopApps and Ovi store, I wanted to remove Topapps but it continue to deny the operation. I tried soft reset, hard reset and in the ned 4 buttons reset. I tried also few solutions offered here in nokia forum but still without any sucess. I cant remove TopApps or Ovi Store even after hard reset, the maps are also here - I thought that these apps will disappear after hard reset.
In applications I got 3 ovi store related apps installed - ovi, Ovi notifications support package and Ovi Store. Social network app is not working too, its showing me service unavailable. Any ideas ?
Thank you for attention

Hi rslid,
Nokia Store or rather Ovi Store is not deletable or uninstalabe as this is one of the applications that is necessary to enable you to download and update downloaded applications to your Nokia N8-00 Belle. If you try to delete or unistall you get the message operation denied so its better if you leave it.
Concerning hard resetting, any time you feel like hard resetting your device use *#7370# followed by 12345 as the default security code unless you have manually changed it but always remember that it will delete all user data from both drive C and E hence a backup of your data with the phone settings unticked or not selected is strongly recomended before hard resetting and also note and remember that after hard resetting always reinstall your firmware to avoid having an unstable device.

My ipod shuffle (4th gen) don't works after hard reset with itunes

My ipod shuffle (4th gen) don't works after hard reset with itunes, it don't reads too like USB by Windows.
Before that i've seen error (-50) in iTunes, so i reset ipod.
I've read all tips on this site, but nothing helps me.

Re-install N97mini after hard-reset

Hey,
I already paid the Software by credit card and downloaded it directly on the mobile phone.
Few days ago I had troubles with my phone and I couldn't start it anymore. After hard-reseting it, it worked again.
Unfortunately all software is gone now.
When I start the Adobe Reader mobile it says "10 days trial" version. Do I have to pay again?
Thanks for your answer

Hey
no you don't have to pay again absolutely, just download it again and insert the code received by mail
Good luck

Battery after hard reset on Lumia 800

Hi
A few days ago i did a hard reset on my Lumia 800. Since that everything was great, the only reason why i did it, to restore the default settings. After that i updated the firmware to 12070 via Zune. Since that day, my phone doesn't really know how much percentages are left from the battery. Sometimes It's showing a consant value for a long time, then suddenly begins to drain, and after a few it stops. It often happens, that it shows a value, and after an hour it shows a higher value (in percentage) than beforehand.
Today I let It to discharge to 0%, and then i pluged it to the charger. When the phone turned on, it showed me 5%.
It's lifetime havent changed so spectacularly, but i guess its a bit shorter with the same usage.
Is this behaviour normal after hard reset?
Thanks

N85 going slow after hard reset - help

Hello
I did a hard reset on the phone and now everything is going really slowly, especially messaging. Any solution please? Do I download new software and how?
thank you.
Message Edited by mark24601 on 05-Nov-2009 02:48 PM

Make sure there is nothing installing in the background at times after hard reset the phone tries to install some applications that was stored in the card, so wait for sometime or try installing applications on the phone removing the memory card.
If a reply has solved your problem click Accept as solution button, doing it will help others know the solution. Thanks.

See Here > maclife.com/how_remove_other_data_your_iphone
Other is usually around 1 GB...
A ' Large Other ' usually indicates Corrupt Data...
First Try a Restore from Backup...
But... if the Large Other Persists, that is an Indicator of Corrupt Data in the Backup...
Then a Restore as New is the way to go...

Hey Frnds Ovi Store Is Working.............yupppyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy Finally it installed on my c7 and n8 too......
What should hv to do(for those whose ovi is unable to install):
* just Format your phone via *#7370#
* And after that no need to install any qt etc software,just check for SW update in your device.
* And it will show an update of ovi store about 15 MB .
* Thats it.
why it was not showing an update before?
ans. because i hv installed qt 4.7 and qt webkit.so SW update wasn't showing any update.
I will request admin to move this thread to Solution section...
