Does any body know how to recover really old, deleted photos from iPhone? Those photos was deleted long long ago, and I need them back now. Any help?

Maybe you have a situation similar to the above-mentioned. Those photos you deleted long ago suddenly become important and necessary in one day, and then you try hard to find a solution to recover them. Those old deleted photos have never been uploaded into your iCloud Photo Library, so probably someone will think there’s no way to get them back. But if you’ve back them up long ago with iCloud before iOS 8, you still get a chance to recover those deleted photos.
Back in the days of iOS 7 and older, every time you sync iPhone with iCloud, photos will be sent into the encryted backup file along with other data instead of iCloud Photo Library in iOS 8 and later. If you never turn on the Photo Library on iCloud, gladly you still continue this good old function to keep photos, and it’s very easy for  you to regain those old deleted photos; even if you’ve turned on iCloud Photo Library,  you can still giving those oldest iCloud backup a shot, as long as you haven’t clean previous backups in iCloud.
