Recovering pictures on iPhone 4S?

When I was in high school in my Econ class we had this guest speaker super cool laid back guy super funny! In the begging of class he told us this story that he knows how to get deleted pictures from your iPhone I forget if was messages to but pictures forsure! And he used just the regular setting on the phone and put it some numbers he got from the about page on your phone I think. Well basically he did it to his daughter and once he did the last thing he put the phone face down and let her grab and everything was on there every one of those pictures was back! And at the end of class he helped these two girls out who didn't believe him and weren't embarrassed and he did by simply going into settings and they were both stunned and started laughing and got all red it was great! I wanna know if any of you know that trick and how he did it so I could do it myself!

  • Transferring/Recovering messages on iPhone? I just traded in my old iPhone for a 5S. I thought that when they transferred your data over, that also included messages. Now, a year or two's worth of messages with family/friends is gone. I was wondering if there's any way to get them back? I don't have iCloud, but did have a backup on my computer. However, I don't want all of the data from my old phone, just the messages. Is there any way to get just the messages back?
