[00:10] <ShawnR> so munz good news is, testdisk sees all the files on the card
[00:10] <ShawnR> but i don't wanna go through the "undelete" to get them all back (and i think it only puts it back on the card)... but i have hope now :) and that's a good thing
[00:11] <munz> yea
[00:11] <munz> i was able to use some copy command
[00:11] <munz> and copy to a local drive
[00:12] <munz> dont rember cmd but know the options are there somewhere
[00:13] <ShawnR> hmm, still looking deeper into the app
[00:18] <munz> ShawnR, using the undelete you can select where to recover the files to
[00:18] <munz> http://www.cgsecurity.org/wiki/TestDisk:_undelete_file_for_FAT
[00:32] <munz> any luck ShawnR 
[00:46] <ShawnR> sorry, wife and kids got home, had to take a break from phone rescue
[00:47] <munz> no prob
[00:49] <ShawnR> trying to let testdisk write the image... see if it writes a "fixed" image or not
[00:49] <munz> cool
[00:50] <ShawnR> still couldn't find a spot with testdisk to copy files, but it might be a cmd line arg
[00:51] <munz> no it is the undelete...but it asks where to undelete and you can select places on your hard drive
[00:51] <ShawnR> can you do a undelete all? incl files that aren't deleted
[00:52] <ShawnR> i think it is just the partition info that is broken, the file system seems to be very much intact
[00:53] <munz> yes
[00:53] <munz> that was the issue i had only on a sata drive
[00:53] <munz> you can select all top level files/dirs
[01:10] <ShawnR> munz: why would it tell me no space left for image?
[01:10] <ShawnR> i have 250ish GB free on /
[01:13] <munz> not sure, u ran as sudo?
[01:13] <munz> you can try putting in ur user folder
[01:42] <ShawnR> yeah, ran as sudo, put it in my /home/username folder
[01:43] <munz> sweet, so you got files then?
[01:43] <ShawnR> ... no
[01:43] <ShawnR> that's how i ran it the first two times (when i got the space error)
[01:43] <munz> ohhh
[01:44] <munz> did you try just one file?
[01:47] <ShawnR> no...
[01:47] <ShawnR> it gets to like 10%ish and then cuts
[01:48] <ShawnR> i'm trying a diff folder to save it to now
[01:52] <ShawnR> ok, so really about 12% or so before it says no space left for the file image
[01:53] <munz> wierd...the card is like 1gb or so?? not big??
[01:54] <ShawnR> 16gb
[01:54] <ShawnR> but not the 250gb of freespace i have left
[01:54] <ShawnR> odd, right?
[01:54] <munz> yea...not even close...very odd
[01:55] <munz> did you get some files?
[01:56] <ShawnR> nah, there's a lot of files, i've not resorted to a one by one just yet
[01:57] <munz> what about your recovery location? anything there at all?
[02:01] <ShawnR> the one file at a time works
[02:02] <ShawnR> recovery location was just the working directory
[02:02] <ShawnR> the same dir i DLed and extracted testdisk
[02:02] <ShawnR> (in my downloads folder.. lol)
[02:03] <munz> file by file sounds like a pain
[02:03] <ShawnR> right
[02:03] <munz> man, wish i had an idea of what else to try...
[02:05] <ShawnR> yeah, me too.  i'll figure something out
[02:07] <munz> good luck, keep me posted
[02:07] <ShawnR> will do
[02:07] <ShawnR> you k,now...
[02:07] <ShawnR> i shoulda thought about it
[02:07] <ShawnR> photorec might work
[02:08] <munz> yea, was just reading on the website "If a lost file is still missing, give PhotoRec a try. PhotoRec is a signature based file recovery utility and may be able to recover your data where other methods have failed. "
[02:09] <ShawnR> thing is, i don't need to recover lost files
[02:09] <ShawnR> testdisk sees them
[02:09] <ShawnR> and photorec (b/c of the signature based recovery) gives you options for file types, and only looks for those (which for some android files may not work so well)
[02:10] <munz> ohh
