What I can do for my Lost Android Contacts?

[Midealee]

I was composing a message and the phone got stuck when I was about to select the recipients. (Wanted to group send message so that’s why I was not answering directly.) After waiting for a while the phone was still not responding then I forced to shut down and turned it on again. Okay I again edited the same text and tap to choose receivers. Good grief! NO CONTACTS! EMPTY! Why? What happened?

I first tried to sync Gmail contacts back to my Sony Xperia, however when I logged in to Gmail and it was the same! NO CONTACTS!

Long story short, I finally found Myjad Android Contact Recovery which seems to be useful because I want simply the contacts. So is there anyone tried successfully restoring lost contacts with this program? Any advice? Many thanks!

You probably already checked this but what about contacts on your SIM card? Maybe you were only displaying contacts on phone? If you have them all saved on your SIM card simply import from SIM to phone or adjust contacts display setting to show contacts on SIM.

Contacts saved to your Gmail account are on the Google server so cannot be lost.
First of all check in Contacts > Menu > Contacts to display that you have selected your Gmail (or All)
If selected, turn phone off, remove battery and turn back on.
You will need a data connection to resend contacts.
However, if you have only saved contacts to android phone, it is possible to wipe them. But again, try turning phone on and off.

It is possible to directly recover lost contacts for Android, but you should make sure you have backup files somewhere.
1. Google account, if you have a google account for your android phone and open the automatically sync, you can try to recover from google account.
2. Offical PC software, generally speaking, an android phone need to upgrade in computer via a official PC software, such as Samsung PC studio, and this applicaiton have a automatically backup function, when you connect the phone to computer and launch the application, it will make a backup for your phone data, thus you can try to find the backup from PC studio.
3. 3rd-party android assistant - Android Data Recovery , which is similar with PC studio, and it is more convenient, and the backup is more obvious.

We often meet these awkward accidents in our daily lives. Mistakenly deleted important text messages that including meeting spot, dating time, etc. or sometime, Phone dropped down with all contact numbers missing. If you have saved the information on your mobile phone SD card, you are lucky, you can get them back for SD card doesn’t erase a file immediately once you deleted it. It just make vacant for subsequent file. Unless the space is overwritten by new data, your old deleted files like text message, contact number, etc. are still there and can be retrieved.
