[Q] Factory Reset S3 Needing Internal Memory File Recovery

Please can anyone offer some simple answers and advice for me and my situation

Due to poor advice I optioned to get over a "Damaged Memory" screen by choosing the 'Reset' button, the advice said all files could then be recovered by various 'recovery software tools' available. Now I find that my version of Android has no option to float the 'internal' memory to a PC as 'removable storage' only the irritating MTP transfer thing!

So my question is...

Is there any simple way to enable UMS for the INTERNAL drive on the phone?

BTW I should say I have tried a UMS re-enabling apk but this only makes good UMS for EXTERNAL drives, NOT INTERNAL.

The only thing I can I think of is to take the firmware back to before the 'wizards' at Samsung removed the UMS option, though to be honest I don't know if the internal drive was ever mountable in Windows as a 'removable drive'.

FYI My device is not rooted.....yet!


Thanks

Steve

PS: I did try the DR.Fone for Android recovery software, which seems perfect but it couldn't connect via UMS so found nothing.

Internal is an emulated memory, cannot be mounted as UMS regardless of root.

Click to expand...

Click to collapse

Sorry I need to be completely clear here......

Are you saying there is ABSOLUTELY no way of recovering ANY data from the factory reset INTERNAL memory?
