If you want to try more methods to recover accidentally deleted text messages on Android phones, but still don't want to use third-party tools, here are a few additional avenues you can explore:
Use Android Debug Bridge (ADB): If you are familiar with technical operations, you can try using Android Debug Bridge (ADB) to access the phone data. This requires that your phone has previously enabled USB debugging mode in "Developer Options".
- First, make sure your Windows 11 computer has ADB tools installed.
- Connect your Android device to the computer.
- Open the command prompt and use the ADB command to try to access the phone storage to see if you can find the SMS database file before deletion.
Check the internal storage of the phone: If your phone is rooted, you may be able to directly access the database file where the SMS are stored. This is usually located at /data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases/mmssms.db. You can try to see if the file still contains the deleted SMS data.
