Phone Data Recovery Cost in Malaysia (2026)

Cost Guide

Phone died and you never backed up your photos? Yeah, we see this a lot. Data recovery works more often than you'd think, even from water-damaged or completely dead phones. Here's what it costs and when it's worth trying.

Phone Data Recovery Cost

Basic recovery (phone boots but screen broken): RM 200 – RM 350
Intermediate recovery (phone won't boot, no water damage): RM 300 – RM 500
Advanced recovery (water damage, board-level repair needed): RM 400 – RM 800
Encrypted / locked device recovery: Case-by-case, RM 500+

What Data Can Be Recovered?

Photos and videos (including deleted ones in some cases).
Contacts and call logs.
WhatsApp, Telegram, and other messaging app data.
Notes, documents, and downloaded files.
App data (depending on encryption and OS version).

When Is Data Recovery NOT Possible?

Storage chip (NAND) is physically destroyed — extreme fire or crush damage.
Factory reset was performed and device was used extensively after — data overwritten.
iPhone with unknown Apple ID and password — encryption prevents access.
Severe corrosion on storage-connected circuits from prolonged water exposure.

How to Maximize Your Chances

Stop using the phone immediately — every new write reduces recovery chances.
Don't charge a water-damaged phone — short circuits can destroy the storage chip.
Don't attempt DIY software recovery on a physically damaged phone.
Bring it in as soon as possible — corrosion spreads over time.
If the screen is broken but phone works, we can extract data via cable or wireless — cheapest option.
