How can I go about retrieving my text that I accidentally deleted.

I was editing and deleting old messages on my cell and accidentally hit edit my boyfriend's text. By doing this it has deleted all the history of his text.

I need to retrieve this information back. How can I go about resolving this issue with my Iphone?

Hi Songee! I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but a deleted message is gone for good. In the future, precious messages can be preserved by locking them. That way, you will not be able to delete the message unless you unlock it first.

Some devices when you delete the messages dump them into a trash folder.

Hi Songee, I'm sorry to hear about your text thread being deleted. I understand how important it can be to save some conversations. Have you backed up your phone to your computer recently? If so, you may be able to restore the phone from that backup.
