The variety of manufacturers and encryption methods makes recovery more difficult. We handle all fault types:

- Electronic faults: power surge, voltage, impact, water, humidity, etc.
- Flash memory: degraded reading due to memory wear
Working on a phone requires specific equipment and skills. The components to be replaced or repaired impose many constraints, particularly because of their size. This is micro-electronics: the work is carried out on components whose dimensions are far smaller than a millimetre, as you can see in the image below.

Frequently asked questions
For several years now, the smartphone has held a central place in our lives. At any moment, it’s used for communication, taking photos and videos, social media, and more. It’s a device that stores a great deal of important, and sometimes confidential, information. Yet it can happen that you’re no longer able to access certain files, either because you accidentally deleted them or because they’ve become corrupted. If that happens, don’t worry : Chronodisk is here to help with phone data recovery !
What kind of fault can affect a phone?
Documents that seem to be lost on your mobile aren’t always deleted. They’re often still present on your device, even if you can no longer access them. Android and iPhone smartphones, however practical and secure, are not immune to corruption.
When it happens, it usually results in the loss of your important information. Given how many people today read their messages and receive private files via their phone, losing them can quickly become frustrating.
That said, several things can cause your device to fail and prevent you from accessing its content :
- Virus attacks : one of the main causes of file loss on a mobile phone. Using it to browse certain websites exposes it to malware. Once malware gets in, it corrupts your files and makes them inaccessible.
- Electronic faults : data can also become inaccessible due to electronic faults, usually power surges and voltage issues, impacts, flooding and drops, humidity, and so on.
- Reading or system startup problems on the phone
- A flash memory fault : reading becomes impossible or degraded because the memory is worn out.
- Accidental deletion of documents
- Rooting the phone
- The phone won’t turn on
- Handling errors, etc.
Whatever the cause of the fault, the situation is not irreversible, and at Chronodisk we can carry out phone data recovery.
Our technicians have all the skills needed to recover any type of document from any Android or iPhone mobile :
- Samsung
- Huawei
- Xiaomi
- Vivo
- Lenovo
- Apple, etc.
Whatever the encryption mechanisms involved, our technicians will find the source of the problem and provide the right solution.
How does the data recovery process work ?
When a fault occurs, many people’s instinct is to try opening the phone themselves. We advise against this, as it risks making the fault worse. Indeed, the success rate for file recovery on a mobile phone is between 50 and 60%. Taking the risk of opening it can reduce the chances of a successful recovery and lead to the permanent loss of your data.
If you can’t access your content or extract it from your computer, the best option is to call in professionals.
The phone data recovery process for Android and iPhone at Chronodisk is simple. First, we invite you to contact us as soon as you notice a problem, whether your phone is dead and won’t turn on, or you can no longer access your documents.
Our customer service team is available Monday to Saturday and handles all your requests. We then carry out a free assessment of your phone to determine which files can be recovered.
Generally, recovering data from a phone does not require opening the device. With 15 years of experience behind us, we’re able to provide services tailored to your needs. How do we do it ? We use dedicated software to recover the files you need from your phone. This can include :
- Photos
- Videos
- Messages
- Important documents, etc.
Once phone data recovery is complete, we save the files onto an external drive or media before handing them over to you. We can also send them to you using the method of your choice.
A few tips : how to optimise your chances of data recovery ?
To optimise the chances of recovering data from your phone, we recommend the following good practices :
- If the smartphone is dead, we advise against plugging it in or trying to open it
- If the phone turns on but you can’t access the content, we recommend not installing data recovery apps.
- Also remember to regularly back up your files to your computer, a USB key or any other external media.
These measures help reduce the risk of permanently losing your documents.
