"Hello, could anyone suggest how I can recover deleted data from OnePlus phones? In my case, I need an important audio file (*.aac). I have licensed data recovery software on my Windows laptop, but that software cannot identify my connected OnePlus device (7 Pro) as MTP rather than Mass Storage (drive). Please suggest if you have any Android app that can recover the audio file without rooting the phone. Thanks in advance!"

1. Install and run the FileZilla server on your computer as an administrator.
2. Tap its General settings > Type 40 in the box next to the Listen on these ports and 0 in the box next to the Connections timeout.
3. Go to Users settings and add a new user.
4. Specify the user name (for example, qwer) and set up a password for the user (for example, pass).
5. Enable the read and write operations for the user and save it to C:\cygwin64\000.
6. Install Android SDK on your computer from here.
7. Copy the following files to the path C:\cygwin64\bin:
8. Connect your Android phone to the system and ensure that you have enabled the USB debugging beforehand.
9. Run a command window and enter the following commands to obtain the available drives.
adb shell
su
find/dev/block/platform/-name 'mmc*' -exec fdisk -l {} \; > /sdcard/list_of_partitions.txt
10. The list_of_partitions will include the phone partitions. You can copy it to a safe location with the following command:
adb pull /sdcard/list_of_partitions.txt C:/cygwin64/000
11. Open the file to manually search for any information related to the missing data.
12. Open a new command window and type in the following commands:
adb shell
su
mkfifo /cache/myfifo
ftpput -v -u qwer -p pass -p 40 192.168.42.79 mmcblk0p27.raw /cache/myfifo
Note: qwer and pass are the username and password, and you can replace them with yours. And they are followed by the port number and server address.
13. Open another console window and input the following commands:
adb shell
su
dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p27 of=/cache/myfifo
Note: mmcblk0p27 is the phone location where the data gets lost, and it can vary from device to device.
Afterward, FileZilla will copy the phone data to folder 000, but the recovery process isn't completed yet.
14. Download a VHD (Virtual Hard Disk) tool from here to convert the RAW file into VHD format so that you can mount it on your computer.
15. Copy the VHDTool.exe file in the working folder 000 in our case.
16. Open a console window again, go to the folder, and type the following commands:
cd C:/cygwin64/000 VhdTool.exe /convert mmcblk0p27.raw
17. Head over to the Disk Management settings on your Windows PC > Settings > Action > Attach VHD.
18. Offer C:\cygwin\nexus\mmcblk0p12.raw when it asks for a location. Note that the file name may be different here.
19. Right-click it and choose the Initialize Disk option > GPT.
20. Right-click the empty space and pick New Simple Volume.
21. Assign a new letter to the drive and disable the partitioning to complete the wizard.
22. Right-click the RAW part and format it. The file type should be FAT 32.
23. Use any free data recovery tool to scan the virtual hard disk you have just mounted. If asked, provide the letter of the VHD.
