I've had it from new and I am pretty sure it used to connevct to my PC but TBH, I've been slack about backing up etc.

I have a Wildfire S that I still use actively but it's pretty old - its running Android 2.3.5, HTC Sense version 2.1. In some ways a parallel query to the one above so I've appended to it. I just have a vague memory from years ago that the only way I could see the internal storage (/data) on my old Desire using a computer was using Linux. The only question is whether it mounts the internal storage at all: I think my old Desire (2010) only mounted the SD card anyway, but that is also where it stored photos by default (it had almost no internal space: 147MB free after a factory reset), and of course if the photos were on the card you could just stick that in a card reader and recover them that way. I'm hoping that when you set it to transfer files (may be called 'Disk Drive' mode?) it will allow the file recovery to work over usb (something like Recuva, if you are using Windows), since the Wildfire S definitely would have used USB Mass Storage for such transfers. And if you can't see anything there, try plugging it in and seeing if there is anything then. When you connect the phone to a computer, what options does the phone give you for connection type? If you can't see anything asking you to choose the type, look in the Developer Options in Settings (I think the Wildfire S is old enough that you probably have that without having to play any childish games of finding the build number in Settings and tapping on it repeatedly to enable the menu). And it's not clear that being rooted would help you with this anyway. The method depends on the phone, especially with older phones, but at least some of these will involve factory resetting the phone (happens automatically when you unlock the bootloader, for example) which would be counter-productive if you are trying to copy data from it. Rooting means hacking the phone so you can give user-installed apps system privileges.

I might add that I don't enable automatic updates of any software any of my computers (both OS manufactures and app developers like to set automatic updates as the default, but I never allow that: they can tell me about updates, but I choose whether to apply them).ĭoes it not have settings for the connection type (charge only vs file transfer)? And you really do want to recover deleted files, rather than just copy stuff off? Because in the latter case another solution would be to just use a file manager on the phone to copy stuff to the removable SD card, then stick that in a USB card reader and copy to the computer. I'm very surprised about automatic updates, because HTC Sync and HTC Sync Manager were different programs, and I'm sure it never auto-updated on my PC (not that I ever really used it).
