The answer from Payam Toloo, Owner of Payam Data Recovery:
Am I able to view my contacts and messages on the HDD after my Android phone data recovery is completed?
Yes, that is generally possible.
It depends; typically, with Android phones, we export all the files into separate folders using specialised software.
Therefore, you might receive files such as CSV, PDFs, and Word documents or spreadsheets.
These may list various data, and PDFs might contain notes and similar information.
Thus, you can certainly copy, paste, and access them on a hard drive, but it is important to remember that the information originated from a phone.
Consequently, the file names and organisation might appear somewhat unusual or unconventional.
Most individuals do not typically organise files on their phones in a specific manner.
It is usually saved automatically.
As such, you might receive folders from us labelled contacts, notes, audio documents, which you can definitely access. This standard export of messages, contacts, calendar, notes, voice recordings, voicemails, call logs, photos and videos is included at no extra charge. If you also want specific app data, such as WhatsApp chats or files from an app, that is our Ready-to-Open Files option ($150 for the first item and $100 for each extra item, charged only for items we find).
