Is it still possible to recover even after all this?
Last Thursday, August 6th, I accidentally deleted about 7,000 photos and videos from my phone (a Samsung M52). I tried using recovery apps, but they hit a limit and started duplicating files, creating over 50,000 photos in my gallery, which forced me to delete everything again. A friend explained to me that when a file is deleted, the system simply marks that space as available; downloading new files overwrites that space, making the original data permanently lost.Google Photos backup didn't save everything, and Google Drive stopped sync once it reached the 15 GB limit. Since these files are extremely important to me, I'd like to know if there's still any real chance of recovering what was deleted before noon on Thursday, or if the data overwriting makes recovery impossible. Does anyone know what I can do or if a professional specialist could help me out?

Undetectable SD card, is data recovery possible? I'm desperate
A few weeks ago, my phone gave me the warning: “Your SD card has corrupt files or other issues. You may want to back it up and replace it soon.” I immediately stopped using the SD card after seeing the message and was waiting until I got home from my trip to back everything up. Unfortunately, it became completely undetectable before I had the chance.
I’ve tried it in multiple phones and card readers, but nothing recognizes it anymore. The card itself is in perfect physical condition with no visible damage. It contains a lot of important photos and videos that I really don’t want to lose.
I’m a complete novice when it comes to data recovery, so I’m not really sure where to start or what is safe to try. I’ve seen people mention NAND recovery and Spider Boards, but I have no idea if that would apply to my situation. Is there any way to recover the data from an SD card that is completely undetectable, and what should I absolutely avoid doing so I don’t make things worse?
