How Painful does it feel when you accidentally delete your data/files saved in your Android phone? Knowing that one misclick, deleted the files is so much to take right? Don't stress too much, we are here with a cool solution to recover your deleted files or I must say lost files, it's like a simple ctrl+z key combination which we use in word documents. By the end of the trick, I am sure you will be happy learning a useful thing. Without any further late, let's dig into the details. On your computer, deleting a file doesn't completely delete, it simply moves the file to recycle bin, with the file capacity still there, and can be recovered easily by highlighting the file and clicking the restore button. But that's not the case in android there is no recycle bin in the Android operating system, hence I hear people asking, is there any way to recover? And the answer is Yes, The files can be recovered with its full capacity. Deleting a file means, freeing up the space utilized, not deleting the content of the file, I know it's kind of confusing, but You don't need to understand the mechanism involved, to explain in simple deleting means freeing up the space, but the actual content is saved in the form of cache. Okay, there are few methods for recovering the lost data on Android.
Method-1: File Recovery Apps
This is the Traditional Way of recovering the deleted files on android rather than the desktop recovery, (which i will discuss later). There are a hand full of Android apps, available in play Store which are used for recovering the lost/deleted data, but among them, I find Disk Digger app to be useful. Note that the app requires Root Permission to Access system level files. Go Ahead and Install the Application From Play Store. Once you have installed the application, Go ahead and Select which section of your device storage you want to search and recover, after selecting the storage location, the app asks you to choose the file type, I mean video file, pictures, or documents, etc. Choosing the required options makes the search faster and accurate, The longer the scan the more accurate the result, so be patient while the app functions. Once the search is completed, the app shows the list of deleted/lost files in which the required files can be selected and recovered easily, no more stressing out to recover deleted files.
Method-2: Recuva System Software
Well Known PC utility software called Recuva, Developed by Piriform, Most of the software tools from the developer were very useful, now Recuva is one among them, which we will use to recover lost or deleted files in this method. Firstly install the Recuva software, Connect your Android phone to laptop/computer via USB cable, note that device must be connected either as mass storage or MTP, if in case the software didn't recognize the mobile, back up your data and format the SD card as Fat32 or NTFS, and there is a minor possibility of disk corrupt so to be on the safe side just backup all your content. Once everything's done, the software asks which type of files must be searched, so go ahead and select file type and drive which you want to recover, once the software is done with search just select the required files and restore files.
Conclusion: So this is the easiest way to recover your lost or deleted files on your android device, if you have liked this article,hit like share it.

Yureka a subsidiary brand of Micromax, Creating a lot of stir among the tech markets in India, be it the price, be it the flash sales, Yureka is in the news for a while now. To be frank, even I was one among many who raved about the device, but with the long extended use, all i can say is "Yureka might not be the perfect smartphone you've been looking for" Many users have reported about some serious issues with the device, The issues are simply making the users unhappy about the device, Let's look at some of the serious issues with Yureka reported
The Heating Issue: One major issue with Yureka is the excessive heating issue, the device tends to overheat while playing games, browsing, watching videos. The only solution for this problem is to reduce the clock speed of the device while playing or watching. Again two Questions arise, as to why include a powerful processor when it can't be utilized properly, and why a user has to go through all the trouble?
Random Rebooting: Sometimes the device reboots all by itself at random intervals, sometimes while using it and other, while it's kept on sleep. Not sure what is exactly causing this problem, for all i know the overheating of the phone causing the GPU to force shut down. But there can be other reasons as well, A bug in Operating system or internal damage.
Battery Drain and Poor Battery Calibration: Major requirement for any smartphone user is good battery life, Yu Yureka fails miserably in the battery department. Thanks to the large screen and power hungry processor, Battery on Yureka rarely lasts for a single day. Most times the battery drains even if its in sleep mode. There are some serious battery calibration issues related to the phone. And another major issue is, Phone takes a really long time to charge completely, sometimes it would take 15-20 minutes of time to move from 99% to 100%, that one percent wouldn't matter a lot but, A weird issue
Poor Camera performance: After the battery, most users look at the performance of the camera, in which Yureka fails again, the specs look grand on paper but not in reality. Yureka packs 13mp primary camera with CMOS sensor made by Sony but the shots were washed out with very less amount of details, same goes with video recording, the sound via microphone is not crisp. Camera performance isn't a complete waste, but it isn't the best either. But a software update might fix the problem.
Poor Loud Speakers and Sound: if you are a music lover, I must say Yu Yureka is not for you and does not please you in any way. The loudspeaker volume is very low, and the sound gets completely distorted when raised to the maximum level. Many users have reported that loudspeaker stops working at times and requires a reboot before any sound comes out again. Not just that sometimes the in call speakers also stop working, forcing the users to take calls via loudspeakers.
Pathetic After Sale Support: With These many issues, a general user looks for support from the company to fix the issues, Micromax is well known for its pathetic after sale support and same goes with YU as well. The support team line is always busy and very hard to get in touch with them, but few of them were lucky enough to get in touch and well, we all know what happened there.
Conclusion: Every smartphone has it fare share of drawbacks, and companies should work on them and try to fix them, which will help the reputation in the long run, in Yureka's case there a ray of hope in the form of Cyanagenmod which is known for its seamless work, so let's hope Cyanagen try to fix these issues with Android lollipop update. Stay Tuned for Yu Yureka Review After Lollipop Update
HTC E9+ got listed on HTC's official website, according to the listing the device sports 5.5 QHD display with 2560*1440 resolution, looks like another Qhd mid ranger smartphone from HTC, coming to the internal, the E9+ is powered by MediaTek MT6795M chipset clocked at 2.0GHz Octa-core 64 bit processor with PowerVR G6200 GPU, there is 3GB ram and 16/32GB internal storage with a memory expansion slot available, runs on android 5.0 lollipop with HTC's own made custom UI called The Sense UI v7.0. On rear side the smartphone has 20mp primary camera with led flash and HTC branding, on the front, ultra pixel front camera with the usual set of proximity and light sensors along with dual boom sound speakers with Dolby audio, other specification include, the device has 2,800mah battery, 4G LTE, WiFi 802.11 a/ac/b/g/n (2.4 and 5GHz), dual nano SIM slots, Bluetooth 4.0, GPS with GLONASS. Reviewing the smartphones by specifications, we can expect a great performer from HTC with a mid ranger price tag, although the camera is the main concern, which fails to in low light conditions. And the chipset which is powered by MediaTek should be decent. The device is expected to launch during the HTC event held on April 8th in Beijing along with One M9+, which was leaked online earlier.
