Have you lost messages? Do you want to recover them? If yes, here are some tips for you.

How You can Recover Deleted Text Messages On Your Android Phone

 

If you've accidentally deleted all your text messages – or even just a single, important message – you need to act fast. Lost messages are recoverable, but only until the portion of memory on which they were saved is over-written by an app update, file download or similar. So grab your phone and computer and learn how to recover deleted text messages on Android.

1) MobiKin Doctor For Android

If you've lost or deleted your text messages and contacts, then the fastest way to get them back is to get a quality program that quickly recovers them. MobiKin Doctor for Android is a top-notch system that quickly and effectively recovers all of your text messages.
You can use the program without rooting your phone, though MobiKin guarantees you'll be able to retrieve the full extent of your content if you do.
Another important feature to a text message recovery program is compatibility, and MobiKin Doctor for Android supports over 2,000 Android device models. This innovative program can be used with HTC, Samsung, Motorola, LG, Sony, Asus and many other brands. Check their list of supported Android devices to ensure your phone is compatible (under the Tech Specs tab). The list is extensive, so chances are your smartphone is compatible
After installing the program on my Windows PC and connecting the device, you will be prompted to allow MobiKin access to your phone in seconds. The preview of your text messages on the MobiKin main screen may take just 17 seconds, and finally recovering the data and backing them up onto your PC happens instantaneously. Check out the screenshots below to see just how simple MobiKin really is.

2) Wondershare Dr. Fone Android Data Recovery

Another great solution for retrieving lost data is the highly efficient and easy to use software made by WonderShare, called Dr. Fone Android Data Recovery, which is available for Windows, Mac computers and Android devices. There is a free trial and you can buy it for $49.95 to get a lifetime license. Some cool things about the service are that you get 100% money back should the software not work, and it is sold worldwide in more than 200 countries, meaning you will likely have it in your home country.
When trying out the software, it works quite well and without any need to read any lengthy instructions or do any weird workarounds. The design is very nice and the steps are very clear to understand. First of all, download and install the software and select which service you would like. After connecting your phone, you will be prompted to allow USB debugging, which can be done in the developer settings (to activate this, tap seven times on the build number). You then give the software permission to access all your phone’s content. (In some cases, it will temporarily root your phone, which thankfully, will not void your warranty. Your phone is unrooted after the process.)

After that, it will take about 5 minutes or so to retrieve the data from your phone. The time it takes will likely be longer if you have a lot of deleted data. You also have the option of retrieving all of the content from your phone, which would take even longer.

You can chose between scanning just deleted files or all of them. / © Wondershare

Afterwards, it will give you a good overview of not only your text messages, but also contacts, pictures, videos etc, all of which can be recovered and saved onto your computer or to the location of your choice. Recovery takes very little time as well.
