Hey all,

Any recommendations for data recovery on a Samsung Galaxy S3? I just need to recover the .jpg files and nothing else.

Cheers!

Not sure to be honest, I don't usually bother with phones but it belongs to a friend so I said I'd sort it out if possible. They said the pictures just vanished. Everything else is there including instagram and some screenshots etc. Strange...

Thanks!

Well, if its in unallocated space you will need to take a physical, which means it needs to be rooted. I just use MPE plus to do those

Root it hey...ok that makes sense. Can you root a phone and leave everything else as it was? I always thought you had to blow the phone away completely to root it.

thanks again!

Depends on the phone.  Most HTC phones have a locked bootloader, and to root it you have to unlock the bootloader, and that wipes away everything. There are a bunch of verizon specific phones that do the same thing as well. With the S3 though, they are pretty easy.  However, there is ALWAYS a risk that something will screw up and the phone will be bricked.   I've done about 40-50 of them and the only one I did that to was the first phone I did, which, happily was my own phone, not a clients.  Plus, it was only 'soft-bricked' so I could fix it.  I highly recommend that you root a test phone or two first so you can get the hang of it.  Find out your exact model number (they are different amongst the different carriers) and then head over to http://www.xda-developers.com/  This is where I learned most of what I know about rooting phones.  You can search for your specific device there, and there is a forum for your exact model.

Good Luck!

things can always go wrong when you root a phone, but the solution is easy.
Backup the complete phone before you make any attempt and then you can always restore it.

I'm pretty sure Cellebrite will take a physical image, then you can carve the pics from the image file. 

If you're UK based and on this forum I'll gladly run anything through our Cellebrite kit for free (one or two items though, not a box full!). My company is the UK vendor for them. 

Their Physical Analyser tool has a pretty good carver in it for images. You could try XRY or Oxygen as well.

i have the same samsung s3 and it is  required to recover data from it , but in my situation the phone is smashed.
the pcb broke in three places , the solution for this is the emmc it extracts the emmc KMVIS000LM-B503 chip from the phone.


there is a video clip , i cant remember whether it is on youtube or on the site 

i am sure this will sort you out.
