<p>I&#8217;m starting to post more stuff that I come across that I think will be interesting to All About iPhone&#8217;s readers, such as this. If you happen to delete photos &#8211; or any other data &#8211; on your iPhone that you want to recover, then you can try this method:</p>

<p>It works because data on the iPhone&#8217;s disk (as with any other computer) is still present until it gets overwritten. When you &#8220;delete&#8221; a photo, only  the reference to that photo file is actually removed. You can then use a photo recovery tool, as with any other disk. Personally, I&#8217;ve always found <a href="http://www.datarescue.com/photorescue/">PhotoRescue</a> to be superb at recovering photos.</p>
<p>This method does require an iPhone that has been jailbroken <em>prior to you deleting the data</em> you want to recover. But because you get a disk image of your entire phone, you could recover any data from it, as long as it hasn&#8217;t already been overwritten, and you know where to look.</p>
