robot TL;DR:

To look for deleted LINE messages on a supported iQOO 13 without a backup, use Dr.Fone - Data Recovery (Android) and its Windows-only Advanced Recovery mode. Select LINE, scan the connected phone, review conversations and LINE Attachments separately, and save selected discoverable results to PC. An existing spreadsheet can help locate a retained score entry, but its displayed total or formula does not recover the organizer's missing explanation.


Ask AI for a summary

The photo-club score sheet still opens, but the LINE message explaining whether a practice-round score counted toward the total has disappeared. A number alone cannot tell you what the organizer intended. If you need to recover deleted LINE messages on iQOO 13 without a backup, look for the actual explanation and any supporting score sheet, marked photo or demonstration clip.

Dr.Fone - Data Recovery (Android) gives you a focused route: scan supported local LINE data, read the conversations found, inspect available photos, videos and files, and save the useful selections to a Windows PC. If you already have the spreadsheet, the optional check below helps identify the right entry without changing any scores. You can skip it and proceed directly to the phone scan.

Before you start

Match the iQOO 13 and Kernel entry

The confirmed support record names iQOO 13 with Kernel 6.6.89. No Android-version restriction is listed for this named model; retain the Kernel condition rather than extending the entry to every iQOO phone or firmware. Check the phone's displayed model and Kernel information and follow Dr.Fone's actual eligibility prompts.

Preserve the phone and prepare a private PC destination

Keep the original LINE installation and login. Do not clear storage, reinstall, reset, flash firmware or unlock the bootloader as a recovery experiment. Prepare a Windows PC and USB data cable, then follow the product's connection and access instructions rather than an unverified Root procedure. Save selected output in a private computer folder.

Distinguish local scanning from native backup restoration

LINE Standard Backup saves text only and supports same-OS restoration from a suitable copy made before manual deletion. A Standard Backup made afterwards or Premium Backup does not roll back manually deleted chats. This no-backup scan saves only data it finds to PC, not back into LINE or the live spreadsheet. Expired originals with no accessible local data are not guaranteed.

Find the retained spreadsheet entry without replacing anything

An optional check when you already have authorized access to a Google Sheets score file. It helps locate the actual entry, not recover deleted LINE wording or validate a competition result.

  1. Step 1 Search the existing sheet for a distinctive identifier

    On a computer, open the relevant Google spreadsheet and choose Edit > Find and replace. Enter the participant code or distinctive label in Find, leave Replace with unused, and click Find. Click Find again to move through further matches. If your access does not offer these controls, skip the check; do not request broader permissions just for recovery.

  2. Step 2 Check whether search options are hiding a match

    Match entire cell contents requires an exact cell match, while Match case makes capitalization matter. Relax those restrictions if the code is only part of a longer cell entry. If you are specifically looking for text in a formula, the dialog also offers Also search within formulas. Use that option only to inspect a retained formula, not to change it or infer the missing explanation.

  3. Step 3 Separate the score entry from the counting rule

    Read the matched entry and the actual formula if relevant. A practice value appearing in a file does not establish that it was meant to count, and a present formula is not a historical decision log. Close the search without using Replace or Replace all. Note the remaining question for the LINE preview: included, excluded, or corrected later?

  • This is native Sheets search of an existing document, not Dr.Fone cloud scanning, formula recovery or automatic recalculation.
  • A current sheet may have changed since the conversation. Preserve the distinction between the displayed value, the retained formula and the organizer's actual words.

Find the explanation behind the score, not just another number

Available resultUseful thing to inspectQuestion still separate
A matched score-sheet entryThe participant code, round label and value actually presentWhether that round was intended to count
A retained formulaThe expression currently stored in the relevant cellThe historical rule or a later exception discussed in LINE
A found LINE exchangeThe organizer's inclusion, exclusion or correction wordingAny surrounding instruction not found by the scan
Available LINE photos, videos or filesA marked image, explanatory clip or usable score documentA certified ranking or decision inferred only from a filename

Common problems and fixes

The spreadsheet search returns nothing for a code you recognize

Check exact-cell and case restrictions, then try a shorter distinctive part of the code. Searching formulas is a separate option; do not repeatedly replace text or edit the score to make it appear. If no retained entry is available, the LINE scan can still be reviewed independently.

The scan finds a total but not the practice-round explanation

Read available LINE conversations rather than relying only on an attachment preview. Search or filter where offered and inspect the complete qualification and later correction if present. Save useful text and files independently; neither a total nor a familiar photograph supplies absent wording.

Advanced Recovery is not offered for the connected phone

Use Windows and compare the detected model and Kernel with iQOO 13, Kernel 6.6.89. Keep the actual compatibility or access message for Dr.Fone support. Do not change firmware or follow an unlocking tutorial to force the option.

How to use Dr.Fone - Data Recovery (Android)

Dr.Fone - Data Recovery (Android) helps you look for the conversation behind the score sheet. Its Windows-only Advanced Recovery workflow scans supported local LINE data on iQOO 13, lets you read available exchanges and inspect LINE Attachments separately, and saves selected results to PC. You can keep the actual rule explanation and useful visual references together without changing the live scores or needing an earlier LINE backup.

  • Focused LINE discovery for supported deleted app data remaining on the connected phone.
  • Separate text and attachment previews to assess the explanation, marked photos, videos and score files individually.
  • Selective PC saving to preserve the relevant exchange and references without keeping every unrelated result.

Follow the official Advanced Recovery workflow

  1. Step 1 Choose Advanced Recovery and connect the iQOO 13

    On Windows, launch Dr.Fone and open Toolbox > Data Recovery. Select Android > Recover Android Data, choose Advanced Recovery and click Start Scan. Connect your supported iQOO 13 by USB when prompted and follow the on-screen instructions until the phone is detected.

    Select Standard Recovery or Advanced Recovery
  2. Step 2 Select LINE app data

    Choose LINE from the supported categories and click Start Scan. You are scanning the phone's LINE data, not the Google spreadsheet. If you also need WhatsApp or WhatsApp Business, the official guide requires those categories to be scanned separately from the other data types.

    Select app data types for Advanced Recovery
  3. Step 3 Let the phone scan complete

    Keep the USB connection intact while Advanced Recovery scans. To stop, click Cancel before disconnecting. If the phone is temporarily unresponsive after scanning or recovery, restart it as instructed on screen.

  4. Step 4 Read the explanation and inspect supporting files

    Choose LINE in the results sidebar and inspect available conversations for the round-counting explanation. Use search or filters where available and read the complete visible qualification. Open LINE Attachments separately to browse the photos, videos and files found, then select the useful results.

  5. Step 5 Save selected LINE records to PC

    Click Recover and follow the prompts to choose a computer folder and save the selected data. Inspect the output there. These are separate PC copies of discoverable records, not restored LINE history or edits to the score sheet.

Conclusion

The most useful score record combines the actual explanation with the reference that makes it clear. Dr.Fone - Data Recovery (Android) offers available LINE conversation reading, separate photo and file previews, and selective PC saving in one focused workflow. Download it for Windows, connect your supported iQOO 13 and start looking for the messages and references you want to keep.

FAQ

  • 1. Can I recover deleted LINE messages on iQOO 13 without a backup?
    Dr.Fone - Data Recovery (Android) provides a local scan route for the supported iQOO 13 entry with Kernel 6.6.89 and no Android-version restriction listed for this model. Use Advanced Recovery on Windows, select LINE, preview what is found and save selected data to PC. No earlier LINE backup is needed for this scan.
  • 2. Does searching a spreadsheet recover the deleted rule explanation?
    No. It locates retained sheet contents and, when selected, text within formulas. A present value or formula does not establish the historical counting rule. Look for the actual explanation in the available LINE conversation results.
  • 3. Can I also recover deleted LINE photos, videos and attachments?
    Review LINE Attachments separately after scanning and inspect the actual available media and files. Select useful marked images, clips or documents that the scan finds. An expired or missing original is not guaranteed merely because it was once shared.
  • 4. Will the output return to LINE or update the scores?
    No. This Windows-only workflow saves selected discoverable data to a PC folder. It does not import messages into LINE, edit cloud documents or calculate a final competition result.
