Maybe you can try to use Android Data Recovery, a professional recovery tool helping you to restore deleted or lost data files directly from your Android phone, including contacts, messages, pictures, etc. No matter they were saved on your SD card or the memory card inside your Android device, you are able to get them back. When you are taking the program to recover photos, here is a step-by-step guide about how to recover deleted photos from Android that should do some help:
1. Connect your phone to computer then run the program
2. Enable USB debugging
2. Select the files to scan
3. Recover deleted photos
Note: before recovery, it is highly recommended not to save or edit data on your Android phone memory in case data overwritten may happen.

If your phone runs android os and you don't have any backups, you`d better use some third-party recovery tools, like Android Data Recovery. It can help you recover all information from your device, including contacts, messages, videos, pictures, etc, a total of more than 10 types of files. It is paid software but you can download trial version for free. I found a tutorial that may help you work it out:

After experiencing similar memory card photo loss issue two times, I know there are two ways to rescue deleted stuffs back:
1). Rescue everything back from memory card data backups.
When all memory card data is saved well on several drives or locations, you can directly copy all desired ones back from backup drives or locations.
2). Rescue stuffs back with memory card data recovery software.
Without backups stored elsewhere, you may take chances with data recovery tool to see how many of your original photos are still recoverable.

Make data backups well from now on.

The simple delete command on most cameras just marks the space on a memory card as being available for use rather than overwriting the actual space on the card. As long as you don't record anything new onto the card, previously deleted photos should be relatively easy to recover using a file recovery utility.

You should even be able to recover photos from a reformatted memory card as long as you used a standard format command rather than a low-level format. (A low-level format not only deletes all the data on the card, but it also recreates the directories and folder structure of the card, rendering previously deleted files unrecoverable.)

If you are looking to recover old photos from your micro SD card, then this option is available in our toolkit as well. As easy as the getting photos from your phone, we will now present you the steps for the memory card option.

  1. On the side menu, find and click on ‘Android SD Card Data Recovery’.
  2. A prompt will appear where you are asked to plug in your SD card. This can be done via Micro SD to USB card reader or if your computer/laptop has a slot.
  3. Once your SD card has been connected, the toolkit will confirm its presence. From here simply click on ‘Next’.
  4. Here you need to select a scan mode. Whichever you choose is up to you, however since we are wanting to find deleted photos, the ‘Scan for deleted files’ option is recommended.
  5. Allow the scanning to run. Once it is finished, all of your deleted photos will appear.
  6. You may preview each photo and if you would like to recover, simply select them and click on ‘Recover’.

I met the same question as you, and tried RePicvid Free Photo Recovery to recover deleted photos from memory card. Just remember not to store files to the card to avoid deleted photos being overwritten.
