How to get data back on iPhones?
I recently got an iPhone 5s, and started to use it as soon as I got it. I filled in my contacts and camera roll, and after that I plugged it into my computer, restored it, and now it's gone.
Probably not the smartest idea on my part, but I want to know if there's any way I can get the data back.
Usually there should be a backup prior to restoring. Check in iTunes - Edit - Preferences - Devices tab
See if you have earlier backups.
If you do you're in luck. Try to perform a restore and select restore from backup (the earlier backup).
Here's a support article on apple for perhaps restoring from iCloud as well:

- Will I be able to get my iPhone data back? Today, my iphone 4s got stuck in recovery mode whilst trying to update to iOS 6.0.1 or whatever. I updated then restored the iphone and it said I would be able to redownload my apps, contacts, etc back. But will my music that was only on my iphone still be on there? It was not backed up on any computer. What about preorders? And accounts on the iphone? Xx
