Question
I own a Motorola v325 I accidentally deleted a phone message, can I access the deleted folder of my phone and undelete this phone message?  How do I do this?  I opened up the battery compartment and I cannot find a SIM card so I am assuming my phone is a CDMA type of phone. Will I still be able to access my phone messages and possibly undelete this one valuable message?

Answer
It's not possible to undelete something you deleted on a cell phone. Even if you had a SIM card, you still couldn't undelete a message as they are not saved onto the SIM. Your phone is a CDMA device, so there is no SIM card and messages are saved onto your phone. When you delete them, they are gone and are not retrievable.
