Retrieve deleted text messages

[dsquelchy]

Hi I have a Samsung S8 and have just deleted crucial txts from 1 sender, does anyone know how I can retrieve them pleeeeease

@dsquelchy The S8 runs on an older version of Android which does not have the Recycle bin option. Once they have been deleted, they cannot be restored. The only way to restore them would be if you have backed this data up anywhere.

Hi @dsquelchy in the modern versions the Recycle bin keeps deleted messages for 30 days, unfortunately not the case with your Device as @LukeB2  has explained.  it is advisable to back messages up in case of issues and even more important on your Device.

I have found that if I delete all of my text messages, they repopulate. This MAY work for you.
