How to Find Deleted Pictures on a Cell Phone

Sometimes a camera phone just doesn't cooperate, and we end up deleting photos that we really wanted to keep. There is a programming solution, however, with two caveats: Some cell phone manufacturers block this software from working, and the software has a free trial download for your initial use but then requires a fee for further use.
