Recover A Mobile Text Message

Recovering deleted text messages is easy with the right device.


Most of us have at one point or another accidentally deleted a text message. If you would like to recover it, you should know that text messages are not instantly removed from your phone's memory when they are deleted. Rather, they are turned off so as not to be accessible. They are only permanently deleted when the memory slot that the message resides in is overwritten. With the right tools, you can undelete them provided that they haven't been overwritten yet.


Instructions


1. Obtain a Subscriber Identification Module (SIM) card data recovery kit. A few available are Pro Data Doctor, SIM Card Recovery and SIM Card Spy (see Resources).


2. Remove the SIM card from your phone by detaching your mobile unit's rear housing and taking out the battery, then sliding out the white rectangular memory chip from beneath it.


3. Place the SIM card in the USB reader's designated slot. Plug the device into the USB socket of your laptop or computer and you will receive a prompt saying that it recognizes new hardware.


4. Click on "Have Disk" and insert the CD-Rom that came with your kit. Click "Next" and agree the the "Terms and Agreements" click "Next" again and wait for the drivers and software to install on your computer. Restart it when the installation is complete.


5. Go to the "Start" menu on the computer and select the application that was installed. Once it is open, click on "File," choose "Download Texts," and a window will pop up with all of the messages available on the SIM card. The deleted ones will be marked in red. Find the ones that you wish to undelete and right-click on them and select "Recover Text Message."
