Do your phones have a sd card slot. You could put a sd card in and copy your image files over.

on blackebbry tour it's in the back, so easy to remove the sd card?

on note 8 it's in the top

so now if I remove the sd cards what do I do next to recover deleted photos?

You could do it via the software on your phone/s. It would probably be better to format your sd card on your computer. Then put it into the sd slot in your phone. Make sure your phone is charged up.

You should be able to access files on your phone and transfer them onto your sd card.

my knowledge on recovering stuff;

Anything deleted is never gone, it remains until that sector it was stored at is overridden with something else, reason you must smash your hard drives before you toss them out.

.txt/.doc files etc are so easy to recover it's very dangerous to delete them before editing the text to something else.

-----------

I have some old phones and lots of software, only issues none of mine are 'dead' and i always enabled dev tools on all my phones so kinda hard for me to test my software's vs my phones to best help you.

Also i did a google search, there is a tool to read that chip to recover internal files but you will have to go to a data recovery person and hope they have that tool, no clue what it costs.

-----

For sd readers, get one with extra USB ports so it serves more purpose, as mentioned, they aren't that much money.

Also check your google account cloud settings, maybe it helped backup your files.

---------

Regarding backups, i always backup my important files on DVDs (converts to data disc's) for images/videos and have these same files on 2 hard drives at once. I have over 20 terabytes in stuff lol.

Regarding external drives, just buy normal drives and use a drive reader, i found my last external drive that crashed on me, had an altered chip so when i took it apart to recover it, it wouldn't fit into my drive reader as that part of that chip removed that sata end for reader to plug into it. common on all externals.

^you can still use externals, i have a 12tb+ Seagate book but i am soon to order some more hard drives to backup that incase i get that same issue my last 2TB external had. you can say i have too many hard drives, computer holds 7 ;)

Also card board is a decent anti static place to store hard drives if don't have anti static bags, but the bags are better. best to backup everything often. things will fail at that moment you wish they didn't.

Good luck.
