How Can I Recover My Deleted iPhone Text Messages? Try FlashFixers’ Remote Deleted Text Retrieval Service!

To request this service, simply fill out a service request form online. Once we have received your request, a FlashFixers technician will contact you via email or phone call to set up a mutual appointment time.

The scheduled appointment time will last about 1 hour and no more than 2 hours. This timeframe is variable depending on the speed of a person’s Internet connection. Generally, the faster the Internet connection, the shorter the appointment time will be.

You can expect that a FlashFixers technician will need access to your computer and iPhone for the majority of the appointment time. However, you are only required to be available at the beginning of the appointment.

What Happens During the Appointment?

During the appointment, you will need three things:

  1. Your iPhone
  2. A Computer (Windows or Mac will work)
  3. A Cable to connect your iPhone to the computer

During the appointment time, you can expect the following to happen:

  1. The appointment will begin with a phone call from a FlashFixers technician who is also a nationally certified mobile forensics expert.
  2. The technician will set up a screen sharing session with you on a computer.
  3. With screen sharing enabled, the technician will ask you to connect your iPhone to the computer or PC. This will allow the technician to access your phone in order to retrieve the deleted texts from it.
  4. The technician will open iTunes, verify the iPhone is properly connected, and initiate an iTunes backup. Doing a backup of the iPhone typically takes 20 minutes to one hour depending on a person’s internet speed and the amount of data on the phone. During this time, the back-up of your iPhone is sent to FlashFixers using a secure, authenticated, and encrypted connection.
  5. Once the backup is done and verified, the technician will confirm with you that the process has completed and end the remote session.

What happens after the appointment? How do I get my deleted text messages back?

After the appointment, a FlashFixers mobile forensics expert will post process and examine your iPhone’s backup to recover all of the deleted text messages. This process can take up to a couple of hours and will occur within 24-48 hours after the appointment time. Need it faster? Just let us know.

All of your deleted text messages will be saved to a USB flash drive and mailed to you via insured first-class USPS mail. This is the default recovery option. There is also the option to receive your deleted text messages electronically via cloud storage or local machine storage depending on your Internet connection speed.

Frequently Asked Questions

How Much Does FlashFixers’ Deleted Text Retrieval Service Cost?

The cost of FlashFixers’ Deleted Text Message Retrieval Service is $400 with 50% down and 50% due after recovery of deleted messages.

We guarantee that we will get all possible deleted messages; just know that they might not be the ones you are looking for. If you are looking for specific deleted text messages, the probability that they will be recovered depends primarily on how long ago they were deleted and how much activity there has been on the iPhone since their deletion. The more recently they were deleted and the less activity there has been, the higher the probability that they will be recovered. Most recently deleted text messages are typically always available.

How Do I Pay?

Once a mutual appointment time is scheduled, you will sent an invoice via email for 50% down. This can be paid online or over the phone, whichever you prefer. Once all deleted text messages have been recovered, and within 24-48 hours after the appointment time, you will be sent an invoice via email for the remaining balance.

Will All of My Deleted Text Messages Be Recovered?

It depends. You can always get deleted text messages back but they might not be the ones you are looking for.

Most recently deleted text messages are usually always available, and the more recently that text messages were deleted, the higher the probability that they can be recovered. The probability of recovering specific deleted text messages decreases the further back in time you go and the more activity there has been on the phone. FlashFixers’ deleted text message recovery service is guaranteed to recover all possible deleted text messages.

Still wondering if a specific deleted text message can be recovered? Deleted text messages are stored in a fixed container size. This container is used to separate and secure the deleted messages from the rest of the iPhone data. As text messages are deleted, the data is sent to this container, and it actually increases in size. From time to time, maintenance from the operating system is done to normalize and decrease the size of this container, which decreases the number of deleted texts available to recover. It is not publically available when and how often this maintenance occurs, but there are multiple factors that influence when it happens, including the date, the amount of activity on the iPhone, and the amount of available space on the iPhone. Just keep in mind that specific deleted text messages are not recoverable all of the time. The sooner you can extract deleted text messages from this container, the better your chances will be for recovery.

How is the Screen Sharing Done?

Screen sharing is done with the secure remote desktop program TeamViewer. You will need to download this free program. To do this, you can either navigate to the free download online or a FlashFixers technician can help you set it up and will send you a link via email to download it. Once you have the program downloaded, you will receive a unique access code specific to your computer and the screen sharing session. You will be asked to provide this code to the FlashFixers technician in order to initiate the screen sharing session. The technician will be able to walk with you through every step of the way to ensure that everything is set up correctly and working properly.

What if I Forgot My iTunes Backup Password? Can My Deleted Text Messages Still Be Recovered?

Yes, it is still possible for FlashFixers to do a deleted message recovery without having the iTunes backup password.  An iTunes backup is only password protected if a user has activated this setting previously. If you don’t know or have forgotten your iTunes backup password, and your iPhone is running iOS 11 or later (released Sep 2017), this is a non-issue.

What Happens During the Post Process Examination?

During the post process examination, your iPhone’s backup will decompressed and decrypted. Only then can a FlashFixers technician carve out the message database file where the deleted messages are stored. To carve out a file means that the data from the file will be extracted without the assistance of the file system that originally created the file. The technician will then use specialized forensics software to identify and recover all deleted text messages.

What Phones Can You Recover Deleted Text Messages From?

FlashFixers’ remote deleted text message retrieval service is currently only available for iPhones. We work with all iPhone models and versions, including iPhone X, XS, XS Max, iPhone 8, 8 Plus, iPhone 7, 7 Plus, iPhone 6, 6 Plus, 6s, 6s Plus, and all earlier iPhone models.

What if My iPhone Screen Doesn’t Work, Has a Black Screen, or Cycles on the Apple Logo?

The iPhone needs to be fully working to be eligible for FlashFixers’ deleted text message retrieval service. However, if you already have an iTunes backup of the phone, FlashFixers can still do the deleted text message retrieval service with the backup you have.
