A mural layout is missing from My Drive, and the LINE exchange explaining its panel numbers has also gone. That can feel like two deletions, but a removed shortcut, an inaccessible shared original and a deleted conversation are three different problems. Finding the drawing again still would not recover the sentence explaining how its numbers were meant to be read.
To recover deleted LINE messages on Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold without a backup, Dr.Fone - Data Recovery (Android) gives supported users a way to look for the missing app records. Preview readable conversation text and available photos, videos or files, then save only the relevant results to a Windows PC. Start by establishing whether the drawing was a link or an actual local attachment.

Before you start
Retain the exact Fold support conditions
The supplied Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold record lists Android 15 and Kernels 6.1.157 / 6.1.162. Preserve both listed kernels without inventing separate Build pairings or borrowing another Pixel's conditions. The folding display does not create a special recovery mechanism. Advanced Recovery is Windows-only; its selected found output is saved to a PC rather than imported into LINE or Drive.
Keep the recovery phone and existing access intact
Use a Windows computer, USB data cable and a private folder for selected output. Leave LINE installed and do not clear its storage, reset the phone, flash firmware or follow generic Root or bootloader instructions. For the optional Drive check, use only your existing authorized account and accessible files; do not alter ownership, sharing permissions or the original document.
Keep cloud documents separate from chat backups
An ordinary drawing shared through Google Drive is not a LINE Standard Backup. Standard Backup contains text and must predate deletion to help restore it; Premium Backup is not a rollback for manually deleted chats. This guide's no-backup route scans the supported phone's LINE data and does not ask you to create or restore a backup.
Check whether the missing drawing was only a Drive shortcut
Use this optional retained-file check when you previously opened a shared Drive file from LINE and already use the Drive app. It can recover access to an existing reference, not undelete the accompanying chat.
Step 1 Open Shared in your existing Drive account
In the Google Drive app on Android, tap Shared at the bottom. Google's Shared with me help says this area includes shared files and folders, plus link-shared files you have opened. Review the owner, document type and date shared to identify the relevant drawing rather than relying on a similar filename.
Step 2 Inspect an original you can already open
Open the matching accessible file and check its actual panel labels. A Drive shortcut is a link to another file or folder, and it points to the current original. Removing your shortcut does not itself delete that original. Read the file as it exists now; do not treat it as the historical drawing or the private explanation automatically.
Step 3 Classify an access error before scanning LINE
A broken shortcut can mean missing permission, an original in Trash or a deleted original. It does not by itself prove a local LINE attachment was deleted. Record which source is missing. If the file needs access you no longer have, the owner's authorized help is a separate cloud-file matter; the phone scan cannot grant permission.
- Do not create or delete shortcuts as a recovery test. A current shared drawing can be useful without changing My Drive.
- A URL, preview card or document title is not the document's downloaded contents. Only actual available file data can provide a usable attachment; the missing panel-number explanation may still require conversation-text recovery.
Separate the shared original, local attachment and missing explanation
| Source or result | What it can provide | What to keep separate |
|---|---|---|
| Shared original opens in Drive | Current accessible drawing and visible panel labels | Original historical contents and the deleted LINE numbering explanation |
| Shortcut reports an access problem | Evidence that this link cannot currently open its target | Permission loss, trashed original and local message deletion are different causes |
| LINE scan finds the numbering discussion | Actual available wording about the row or panel references | A label mentioned in text does not create a missing drawing file |
| LINE Attachments finds a usable drawing or photo | A local reference copy you can select for PC saving | Its filename alone does not establish a later renumbering decision |
| Only the link is found | A reference to a destination | Not the cloud file, its permissions or the missing explanation |
Common problems and fixes
The drawing is in Shared, but the panel numbers differ from memory
Treat the current file as the current file. Read recovered LINE text for the actual numbering convention or later renumbering instruction, and keep an older local attachment distinct if one is found. Do not rewrite the shared original to match a recollection.
The scan finds a Drive URL but no drawing attachment
A shared link need not have contained a downloaded document on this phone. Save useful conversation context if available, and review LINE Attachments independently for actual files. Do not count the URL as successful document recovery.
The device is detected but the supported recovery route is unavailable
Check Windows and the Pixel 9 Pro Fold Android 15/Kernel 6.1.157 or 6.1.162 conditions against the displayed message. Give Dr.Fone support those details rather than unlocking the bootloader, switching device variants or changing the installed system.
How to use Dr.Fone - Data Recovery (Android)
Dr.Fone - Data Recovery (Android) helps you look for the conversation behind a surviving shared reference on a supported Pixel 9 Pro Fold. Its Windows-only Advanced Recovery mode scans LINE app data without an existing chat backup, lets you read found messages and preview LINE Attachments separately, and saves your chosen available records to a PC. You can concentrate on the missing numbering explanation and useful local drawings instead of collecting unrelated files.
- Readable conversation previews help separate panel labels from the sentence explaining their intended order.
- Photo, video and file previews help identify actual local reference content, not merely a recovered cloud link.
- Selective PC output lets you preserve the relevant explanation and available supporting files without changing the shared original.
Follow the official Advanced Recovery workflow
Step 1 Start Advanced Recovery on your Windows computer
Launch Dr.Fone and open Toolbox > Data Recovery. Select Android > Recover Android Data, choose Advanced Recovery and click Start Scan. Connect the supported Pixel 9 Pro Fold with a USB cable when prompted and follow the on-screen instructions until the phone is detected.

Step 2 Choose the LINE data category
Select LINE for the app-data scan and click Start Scan. WhatsApp and WhatsApp Business each require a separate scan from the other categories. Do not interpret that WhatsApp rule as forbidding LINE alongside other non-WhatsApp categories.

Step 3 Allow the scan to finish with the cable connected
Keep the Pixel connected while Advanced Recovery scans. To stop early, click Cancel before disconnecting. If the device becomes temporarily unresponsive after scanning or recovery, restart it as instructed on the displayed product screen.

Step 4 Find the missing wording and inspect real file results
Choose LINE in the sidebar and read the available conversations, using search or filters where available. Look for the actual numbering explanation. Select LINE Attachments separately to browse found photos, videos and files, and distinguish a usable drawing from a message containing only its link. Select the records you want to keep.


Step 5 Recover the selected items to a PC folder
Click Recover, choose a folder on the computer and follow the save prompts. The selected available messages and attachments are saved to the PC, not written into LINE, uploaded to Drive or used to change the original file's permissions.
Conclusion
Dr.Fone - Data Recovery (Android) gives supported Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold users a focused way to find missing LINE wording, inspect actual local reference files and keep a useful selection on a PC. Download the Windows version and start the guided LINE scan to preserve the explanation and supporting attachments that help you understand the drawing again.
FAQ
1. Can I recover deleted LINE messages on Pixel 9 Pro Fold without a backup?
Use Dr.Fone - Data Recovery (Android) on a supported configuration to scan LINE through Advanced Recovery on Windows. Preview the available conversations and LINE Attachments, then save selected found records to a PC. This local scan does not require an earlier LINE backup, but it can recover only what it discovers.2. Does deleting a Drive shortcut delete the file shared in LINE?
Deleting a shortcut does not itself delete the original it points to. In your existing Android Drive account, Shared may still show an accessible shared original. This is a retained-file check, not recovery of a deleted LINE message or proof that the original file has never changed.3. Can Dr.Fone recover a Drive file from a found LINE link?
A found link is a reference, not the cloud file's contents. The documented LINE workflow can save selected conversation data and available local attachments found on the supported phone. It does not restore the cloud owner's deleted original, grant access or bypass sharing permissions.4. Which Pixel 9 Pro Fold conditions must I retain?
The supplied exact-model record lists Android 15 and Kernels 6.1.157 / 6.1.162. Both are retained here without inventing Build-to-kernel pairings. Do not apply a base Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro XL or another Fold generation's record to this phone.5. Will the recovered explanation appear beside the shared drawing in LINE?
No. Advanced Recovery saves your selected available results to the folder chosen on your Windows PC. You can review that separate copy alongside an authorized drawing, but the workflow does not rebuild the original LINE conversation or alter the shared Drive file.
