I am using OnePlus Two, which is a great Android phone. However, the messages can be easily deleted by a tap with the stock messaging app. Now my little boy deleted at least 10 recent messages. I am hoping someone in here to help me out.

Edit: here is the tutorial that solved my problem:

Once the message has been deleted, then it's long gone. Android keeps SMS messages on a file in the system partition. It's very hard to even find the message, and the recovery it's impossible. You might see and find apps that claim to restore those messages, but unless the SMS have been saved manually on the external card, then it's impossible to recover it and you shouldn't pay for something else. Add a password or a pattern to the lock screen to prevent any other deletions in the future.

You can assign a password from Settings > Security in your phone.
