How to get pictures onto a RAZR v3m w/o Bluetooth?

thedean786 · 11-04-2006, 05:13 PM

Any ideas? And I don't have a transfer cable. I tried emailing the image from my gmail account to my phone and it went through but the image does not appear.

I just use the cable that came with my Canon camera. Do you have one of those?

If you have Verizon (which I assume you have becasue its a V3m.) the e-mail thing wont work. Your best bet is to get a "Bluetooth Dongle" off of eBay.

Problem 1: No Bluetooth

Solution 1:

Get a USB card reader for the memory card.
For going from the RAZR, make sure all images are on the memory card and not on the SIM.
Take the memory card out of the cell phone and put into the card reader.
Connect to the computer.
Transfer images to/from the computer onto the memory card.

Problem 2: No cable

Solution 2:

Get a transfer cable if possible.

I got one of the bluetooth dongles and it @#$%ed up my whole internet connections. Then I got a 40-in-1 card reader even though I only have MMC and CompactFlash (my camera) cards. But now I have the cable which works a treat with the cellphone.

That was the most well layed out post I think I've ever seen.

ok well I tried the cable that came with my canon camera and it worked! But now it's asking for software so I assume that would be the CD-ROM that came with the phone?

sweet!, yeah i have motorola phone tools, but i don't know if you can use anything else

thedean786 · 11-05-2006, 07:28 PM

Is that that it's called - motorola phone tools? I can try to see if someone online may have it for download or something....

yu · 11-05-2006, 08:19 PM

You can download it from a torrent site.

SES_D · 11-06-2006, 01:33 AM

Do you have internet on your phone?
if you do...simply e-mail or picture message yourself from your computer

thedean786 · 11-06-2006, 11:27 AM

Ok so I spent 3 hours downloading the Moto phone tools from a bittorrent site only to find out that it's a comrpessed .uif file that can only work if it's burned to CD/DVD. And the only program that will work is MagicISO. So I download that too, only to find out that b/c it's a trial it will only allow me to burn up to 300MB and the file itself is something like 557MB. So pissed as hell I find a .exe file and download that and when I look at it it's an .exe but for something else - so I deleted it.

*sigh*

I want those 3 hours back!

Its actually very simple. If you have verizon phone just e-mail it to <yourphonenumber>@vzwpix.com. Make sure its in *.jpg form, When you receive it just simply save it as a photo.

yu · 11-06-2006, 10:38 PM

Try using this torrent search... I forgot which one I used to download it. A couple of them have a bunch of viruses. You can get an older version but you gotta update it a lot of times and it'll take some time. I'll go around and try to search for one that will work.
