How to recover data from LGE Nexus 4 running on Android Version 4.4.2? I am using LGE Nexus 4 which is running on Android Version 4.4.2. Somehow accidently i do a factory reset on my phone and in return i lost all my emails, messages, pictures i.e, almost everything. Now i am desperately want to recover them but don't know how to do it. 

I tried to find a solution on google but i got more confused by the given solutions on google. I tried a data recovery software(Dr Drone for android) but the software is not able to recover data from those devices which are running on >Android version 4.2. Technical team of Dr Drone for android want me to root the device but because of complications in the rooting process i don't want to root my device.

Is there any way to recover them?
Here's a couple of things that might help,


A regular factory reset does not wipe the sdcard partition. Things such as pictures and whatsapp messages should be restorable when you just install the relevant apps again.
If you are a Gmail user, just sign in again and it will automatically resync. If you are using a corporate email account or general mail app, and if the email was setup using IMAP, the messages should still be sitting on the server and  adding the email account again should sync the messages back. If the setup used POP, then you might be out of luck here.
By default the contacts on your phone sync with Google if you were signed in to the phone. Signing in again should sync those back as well.


Good luck!
