Viewing parts of deleted txt msgs on iPhone search area

bluefrog88 · Oct 1, 2012

In the search area of the iphone I can put in a letter and the search results have parts of deleted text messages. It also shows who they were from too. I touch one and it goes to the text message screen but it doesn't come up. The messages were already deleted. Is there any possible way to bring up those text messages?

Turn off Messages in Spotlight Search:
Settings > General > Spotlight Search, uncheck Messages.

There are programs available online... that lay claim to being able to recover deleted text messages and deleted pics. However, I've never known anyone or encountered a user here that can give any of those programs a "thumbs up." To sum it up... the only way to 100% recover anything that's been delteted from your iDevice is if you have a back up of said iDevice... from when the deleted items where present.
