Have you ever accidentally deleted some photos, contacts or other files from your Android phone? It seems quite hard to recover the files, whether from your Android internal storage or SD card. Actually Android file recovery is not that hard, and this article will tell you how to accomplish that.

Here I recommend Android Data Recovery for those who have just lost photos, contacts or other files from Android phone. It's a powerful tool that could recover photos, contacts and other files directly from your Android phone. It supports all Android phone and tablets running Android Lollipop, 4.4 Kitkat and under, such as Samsung, HTC, Motorola, LG, Sony.

Before we proceed to the data recovery process of your Android phone or memory card, there is a crucial thing to do: minimize the usage of your phone or card as much as possible after you realized any data loss. For the mechanism of flash drive remains the same: when files were deleted from whether a phone or from a memory card, the files were removed from visibility but not from the actual device. But when new data were added, the space of the deleted files will be taken up, therefore, the files will be overwritten.
