How to Recover Deleted Text Messages from Samsung

Part 1: Why People Lost Text Messages on Samsung?

Losing important data is frustrating beyond doubt. However, it's common among mobile users. Why would it happen? All the situations comes to be divided into the following three categories.

• Accidental Deletion: In most cases, phone users deleted their messages carelessly or without knowing that they are going to need the data someday, or even, data loss occurs unconsciously (System Upgrade or Rooting).
• Factory Reset: Some forgot to back their SMS and MMS up before resetting the phone. Or, users boot Samsung to download mode and restore device to factory settings for solving systematic glitches. What's worse, system failures often come without noticing, so most users who don't have the habit of saving copies will lose important SMS or MMS.
• Phone Crash: That must be the worst case that could happen to users. However, once it does it always comes out of expectation, and you'd better get ready to this misery.

Note that once you lose data like SMS on Samsung phone, whatever it's Galaxy S7 or Galaxy S8, STOP USING your device in case that the deleted content be overwritten and gone for good.

Part 3: How to Avoid Permanent Data Loss on Samsung?

Before Data Loss Happens

As an old saying goes, always prepare for a rainy day. If you'd backed up your valued content on Samsung in advance, you would not be troubled by such a headache, worrying how to restore the deleted messages. I don't want to nag, but it's strongly recommended to back up text messages on Samsung in case of data loss.

Also, there are a whole bunch of SMS backup apps available on Google Play. If you have done a backup for text messages via those apps, sure it's a cakewalk for you to perform Samsung text retrival and retrieve deleted text messages on android without computer. If not yet, you can look for a desirable app on Google Play on your own.

After Data Loss Happens

Though files can be retrieved once deleted by accident, there is still a chance that they might be gone forever. Space on internal memory that were once taken up by the deleted files may be occupied by the new-generated data. So the first thing you should do after losing data is to stop using the Samsung device until you recover the messages with Android SMS Recovery.
