Mike, unless you stored your files to a memory card (which only some version of the V3##) had access to, or transferred it previously to your computer, the information will be saved onto a memory chip on your logic board. In the case of the V3 it is a PF38F4050L0YBQ0 flash memory chip. It is only possible to retrieve it if you

1. have a flash memory IC reader or

2. have the knowledge to build one and

3. have the right software to read the information.

That is why professional services charge hundreds of Dollars to retrieve that information. Maybe you have a connection with some digital forensics expert that could assist you with that. If your logic board is viable, you might think about fixing your phone.

Yeah,if the SD card is okay ,then you can retrive your lost photos easily,or we can say that part the memory card.

You can use some "Card reader" to see whether your pictures are still here,if not,you should use some special photo recovery software to find baxck you lost photos.

Hope this will help you.

Similar problem here. Phone has the “Snow Crash” but want to see if anything is salvageable.

Incidentally some devices especially Moto tablets NEED the SIM card in to complete setup, guess this got missed out of the manual. Worth a try if it seems stuck.
