Hello everyone!
   Recently I had to format (hard reset) my device, I had back up every images and videos in a newly bought sd card.  But now when  I try to access those files, it's showing a greyed out squire with a small circle in the middle with a exclaimation mark inside it. I've tried using many paid softwares to recover/repair the images including #MobiSaver, #Unseen gallery , can't use Steller Phoenix Data recovery as my device is not rooted. Also there were some online websites claiming that they can repair the images but when I tried to upload the image it was giving error indicating file format not supported.
Unfortunately, Google photos back up was turned off for a period of time.  Any suggestions on how I can repair those files from in sd card (without pc) or recover the files which were deleted while formatting the device is appreciated!

# there is no problem with the sd card as the files copied from other folders are working fine, except for the ones copied from DCIM(CAMERA) folder.
