Please someone help, I accidently restore my iphone and it deleted all my pictures. to make things worse, I did not have backup on nor Icloud on. I was in the process of downloading all my pictures on my computer and my computer asked me to restore my phone. Very bad decision. Is it possible to undo the restore I did?
Not with an iPhone, no. When you restored it, that process destroyed the Secure Enclave encryption keys necessary to decrypt the data. Even if you set it up with the same screen lock passcode, the internal keys will not be the same. So no, all that could be recovered would be encrypted gibberish with no way to decrypt it.

Are you sure you didn’t do ANY of these ways of preserving photos and videos?
A final option is if you synced your photos to iCloud, you have a Mac, and you use Time Machine to back up your Mac automatically, you can open Time Machine and restore the photo library to an earlier date. To do this on your Mac open Finder, then click on Pictures in the sidebar and launch Time Machine. Go to a time before the photos were deleted and restore
Photos Library.photoslibrary. (If you had ever changed the name of the photo library restore that file instead).
If the answer is no to all of the above your photos are gone forever.
No. The restore erased all data contained on the device.
Will going to a third party help?
