Asus VivoBook x507ua-ej366t: Photos disappeared from both my Android phone and ASUS VivoBook X507 a

Thu, 23 Jul 2026 02:45:47 -0700

Hi everyone,

I was transferring photos from my Android phone to my ASUS VivoBook A507M (I selected the X507UA because it's the closest model).

The transfer was taking a very long time and my laptop became extremely slow, so I unplugged the USB cable without safely ejecting the phone. The transfer failed.

After that, I noticed that some photos were missing from my phone. Even more surprisingly, many photos stored on my laptop also disappeared. Only the photos in one folder on my D: drive were deleted. My documents and other files, especially on the C: drive, are still intact.

I checked the Recycle Bin, but the missing photos are not there. I also searched for the files, but they seem to have completely disappeared.

This happened quite a while ago, but I'm still hoping there is a way to recover the photos.

My questions are:

Why would unplugging the USB cable cause photos on both my phone and laptop to disappear?

Is it possible that the files were accidentally moved instead of deleted?

Is there any way to recover the missing photos, even though this happened some time ago?

How can I restore the missing photos to their original locations? Is there any recovery method I can still try?

Asus VivoBook E203MA-TBCL432B: The laptop crashes beyond a point and heats up

Sun, 24 May 2026 19:20:37 -0700

I have the 2gb version, upgraded to ssd, and a year back switched from windows 10 to lubuntu linux. The day to day office usage is good

But if we try to run like vs code etc it freezes and I have to restart again. I have opened the laptop for only once for ssd upgrade. And previously I never faced this issue, this is a new development. So my question is will I need to apply new thermal grease, if it needs one. Or this model just has the cpu sandwiched with the solid heatsink?

When my sister tried to charge her laptop, it was not working. We dont know if it is the charger itself the problem or the laptop itself. We can't turn it on already because it's low on battery.
