Recover picture file from HTC One M8 SD Card? Yes!

Before the recovery, you may want to check again if there's a backup somewhere that you didn't know even exists. Google+ might have helpfully been sending photos and videos up to the cloud, and files deleted from Google+ will be kept in the trash for a short period of time for recovery.

If no backup found, and the deleted files were stored on the SD card (by default they should be), they can still be recovered with file recovery software, when files, photos, videos were deleted from the HTC one, they are not erased or destroyed, only the pointers to these files removed from the file allocation table, it's like the access you got to the photos are severed but no harms comes to the actual files. HTC One M8 Photo Recovery will easily bridge the gap. Also note that the deletion has marked the deleted files as expandable to free up memory space to store new data, try not moving large files or take videos with the HTC one camera before the recovery is done, such activities writes considerable amount of data on the memory thus may put our soon to be recovered photos in jeopardy.
