[Hidden-tech] How to Recover data from Verizon Cell Phone

[Jeffrey Peck]

It is possible that the physical data is not overwritten even it was  
deleted, but recovering it might be difficult or impossible.  I would  
still try BitPim and browse through the file system.  Perhaps you can  
salvage something that way.
