Please help me clone internal memory from S4



While tired and drunk I accidentally deleted an entire album instead of just the most recent photo. This album contained pictures and videos of my dog who recently passed. Please help me get them back.

I am trying to clone the internal memory to my pc so I can use Recuva to get the photos back. I have been trying to follow the guide here - http://forum.xda-developers.com/gala...y-yes-t1994705

I have tried to follow it to the best of my abilities but when I run the commands through Cygwin64 Terminal I just get "error: closed" message. I think I have installed the Android SDK, Java DK and drivers correctly (can't be sure since there are outdated links and images in the guide, not to mention so many abbreviations that I have no clue what they mean).

I have a rooted S4 GT-I9505 with android version 4.3. My PC's OS is Win 7. I don't know what other details to include.

Just incase I'm really dumb, when I reboot holding the power, vol up and home buttons it goes into recovery mode, is this the same as the bootloader mode? When I enter adb devices it shows it as sideload, whatever that means.

As you can probably tell, I am not a programmer or dev. If I seem really dim please try to forgive me.

Thank you in advance.

My head is pounding now and I'm going to bed, hopefully when I wake there will be an answer waiting for me.

Thanks again.
