They are deleted. If the space is not reclaimed, restart your phone. If the space is still not reclaimed, restore your phone.

When you push delete on a photo or an app it deletes it permanently. No need to empty trash if you can just throw the trash out the window 😉

If you have synced your iphone to itunes, and save the pictures then you can retrieve it. But if you have not synced your iphone to itunes, and mistakenly deleted a photo, then there is no way to retrieve it.

good point.
Plus, its very hard to delete an app..so there is no way to do it by mistake. You have to hold down on it for 5 seconds to get to Jiggy-Mode......
