Hi, thanks for taking the time to answer, I was wondering if it’s possible to recover data from an iPhone after it has been factory reset using “Erase all content and settings”, I understand that after you use this it will wipe the encryption keys so the data is inaccessible, what I’m wondering is if you have the passcode or apple password then can the data be recovered?
Thanks for your response, although I’m still uncertain if it can be recovered IF you have the passcode? My understanding of encryption keys is not that great, what I’m asking is can the encryption keys be recreated if you have the passcode or password?
If you erase all content and settings, this will make the phone just as it was when you took it out of the box after purchase. There will not be any data on it that was added before it was erased.
To summarize the above: "no".
Just to confirm, even if you have the passcode that was previously used then the encryption keys are still lost and the data is irrecoverable?
Once erased, all data is gone. There is nothing there to be found.
It doesn't matter whether you have the passcode or not. The data is gone. It is not recoverable.
Can data be recovered from a factory reset iPhone if you have the passcode?
