Do you back up via computer or iCloud? If you backup via computer and you have not backed up over your last one with the pics, restore your latest backup. I don't see why that wouldn't work.

My cousin just lost all of her pictures, and she never had icloud setup, and hasn't backed up in months. It's a good idea to back up every couple weeks or so, so something like this doesn't happen. Hopefully you backed up, or had it on the iCloud. If not, looks like it would be one of those things where its a lesson learned.

I sync and backup every day its a good idea to do it more often then every couple weeks.

If you have iCloud and have PhotoStream turned on you might get lucky by trying that. If you have iCloud turn on and have a iPod touch, or Mac, or iPad they might be on there.

i've been backing up my ipods/iphones since ipod touch gen 1...and STILL have all my photos there! hopefully you backed up, and if not...then you should make it a point to.

...either that, or save your photos onto your computer every week or so...

Another good reason to use Photo Stream...It keeps a log of all your current photos whether you deleted them or not...

I'm not sure what type of storage device is used, but with traditional storage media, deleted files can be recovered after they have been deleted until another file replaces them. I'm not sure if this works or not but it would be worth exploring.

iCloud and PhotoStream are nice. If you are looking for a better and complete backup method, check this out.

It's a post I made earlier about SugarSyncFree.com. Check out their free 5GB account.

Where this is true, I believe the Flash storage inside the iPhone is different compared to standard storage devices... I could be wrong, though.

First, get a professional photo recovery for iPhone: Wondershare Dr.Fone (for Windows users), or Wondershare Data Recovery for iTunes (for Mac users)
Download the free trial version below to check your deleted photos before you recover them.

After iPhone is detected as portable disk in windows, you can use file recovery tool to recover the deleted pictures. I have tried and successfully recovered pictures
