Abstract

The present disclosure provides a data recovery method comprising: A. receiving a data type of data which is selected by a user to be recovered; B. detecting a first capacity of data having the same data type on a server side, detecting a second residual capacity of a local storage of a mobile terminal, and comparing the first capacity with the second capacity, wherein if the first capacity is greater than the second capacity, the recovery process is interrupted, and if the first capacity is not greater than the second capacity, step C is performed; and C. downloading the data to be recovered from the server side to mobile terminal for recovery, and displaying a recovery result after the recovery is completed. With the present disclosure, recovery of a large amount of data can be achieved by recovering the data from the server side, thereby not only reducing the amount of local computations at the mobile terminal and reducing resource consumption, but also better protecting the important data from being lost, which is convenient to use.

Claims

1. A data recovery method, comprising:

A. receiving a data type of data which is selected by a user to be recovered;

B. detecting a first capacity of data having the same data type on a server side, detecting a second residual capacity of a local storage of a mobile terminal, and comparing the first capacity with the second capacity, wherein if the first capacity is greater than the second capacity, the recovery process is interrupted, and if the first capacity is not greater than the second capacity, step C is performed; and

C. downloading the data to be recovered from the server side to the mobile terminal for recovery, and displaying a recovery result after the recovery is completed.

2. The method according to claim 1, wherein the data type comprises any one of image, video, short message, call record, and personal contact, or any combination thereof, a personal contact comprising a contact name, a telephone number, and a personal incoming call processing manner.

3. The method according to claim 1, wherein the server side receives from the mobile terminal an instruction of requesting for downloading data to be recovered, and transmits to the mobile terminal the data to be recovered.

4. The method according to claim 1, further comprising:

after the recovery process is interrupted, if the user chooses to continue the recovery, continuing the recovery from a point where the data has been recovered.

5. The method according to claim 2, further comprising:

processing, by the mobile terminal, the downloaded data to be recovered by;

combining, de-duplicating, encrypting, and storing data having the image type and/or the video type; and

unpacking, combining, de-duplicating, packing, encrypting, and storing data having the short message type, the call record type, and/or the personal contact type.

6. A data recovery system comprising a display module, the system further comprising:

a mobile terminal comprising an acquisition module, a detection and processing module, and a download and recovery module; and

a server side, wherein

the acquisition module is configured to receive a data type of data which is selected by a user to be recovered;

the detection and processing module is configured to detect a first capacity of data having the same data type on the sever side, detect a second residual capacity of a local storage of the mobile terminal, and compare the first capacity with the second capacity, wherein if the first capacity is greater than the second capacity, the recovery process is interrupted, and if the first capacity is not greater than the second capacity, a download and recovery operation is performed by the download and recovery module; and

the download and recovery module is configured to download the data to be recovered from the server side to the mobile terminal for recovery; and

the display module is configured to display a recovery result after the recovery is completed.

7. The system according to claim 6, wherein the data type comprises any one of image, video, short message, call record, and personal contact, or any combination thereof, a personal contact comprising a contact name, a telephone number, and a personal incoming call processing manner.

8. The system according to claim 6, wherein the server side comprises a processing module configured to receive from the mobile terminal an instruction of requesting for downloading data to be recovered, and transmit to the mobile terminal the data to be recovered.

9. The system according to claim 6, wherein the system is further configured to continue the recovery from a point where the data has been recovered if the user chooses to continue the recovery after the recovery process is interrupted.

10. The system according to claim 7, wherein the mobile terminal further comprises a combination and processing module configured to process the downloaded data to be recovered by:

combining, de-duplicating, encrypting, and storing data having the image type and/or the video type; and

unpacking, combining, de-duplicating, packing, encrypting, and storing data having the short message type, the call record type, and/or the personal contact type.
