Unfortunately, you don't get anything back. This and many other companies to try sell us software that they claim will recover deleted files from the actual iPhone. What they are really doing is recovering deleted files from the hard drive on your computer where you may have transferred photos at one time. Short of somehow getting a raw disk image off of your iPhone there is no current way, to my knowledge, to actually recover anything directly from the iPhone. What you can do though is access the iTunes backups on your HDD in the form of *.mddata files. For your images you can just rename these to .jpg and any that are images will work as such. I have tried around 30 recovery applications, jailbroke my phone, mounted it with SSH as a network drive, and a plethora of other activities to no avail. Essentially, these companies are scamming us and using our ignorance to make money. There is hope if you have ever made a backup of your iPhone.
Good luck :)
