I put my old phone in the washing machine..Nokia e65 somthing and now i have the new Samsung Touch phone.
I managed to save my sim and memory card but when i try to get the info off it when it's in my new phone it says 'Card is wrong format..need to reformat so it can be used but this will erase all data'!!
Is there any way to either get all my pics and vids off it or to reformat it without erasing everything on it?

You could possibly format it and use a recovery program to recover some of the data.

if you dont have a card reader or adapter then connect your phone to the pc and transfer it that way?

if its not working because its been washed it may still get recognised as a mass storage device if u plug it in with power on if possible?

what size is the memory card cos my 2gb from my old nokia would not work in my d900 as it was two big and the phone copuld not read a 2gb card and only supported 1gb, check what your phone supports first

Just have a search on google for deleted file recovery software. I had to do the same when I formatted my hard disk by accident
