Have 7100i with device software 4.1.0.376. Have Desktop Manager of 4.1.0.8. Use to be able to transfer photos from desktop to device. I have an icon for photos with current photos on my device. Now I am not able to transfer photos from desktop to device. Any ideas??? Let me also state that I did have desktop manager version 4.2 earlier, which I believe gave me this ability to transfer photos. But is has been awhile and it would not work. Called Nextel and informed me to go back to 4.1, which I did.

You can't do that with the 7100i. You need to email them to yourself. In order to transfer with DM you need OS 4.2 on the device.

You know what. You just refreshed my memory and that is exactly how I did before. Thanks again!!

1. DM->Backup/Restore->Advanced. Backup 'Content Store'.
2. Bring up IPDManager, open the 'Content Store' ipd with it and navigate to /home/user/pictures. Drag the photos you want to transfer into the phone into the folder. Save the edited ipd file.
3. DM->Backup/Restore->Advanced. Restore 'Content Store' with the edited ipd file and you will get the photos in your phone.

ps. IPDManager (v1.0.0.18 downloadable here) is freeware made by a Chinese endyvee@bbs.maxpda.com so only the Chinese version is available. But I guess you can ignore the weird characters and simply use the icons on the toolbar.

Interesting method. Should work if that IPDManager works.

Very interesting indeed.
I was eager to try it but the download site on the link never worked for me, after entering the code it gives me a broken link.
Then I searched the web and found this asian forum thread: Èç´Ë¼òµ¥---ʹÓá°IPDManager¡±À©Õ¹BBµÄ**ͼÁåÊÀ½ç**ͼÎĽ̳Ì---7290ÐÂÊÖÈÕ¼Ç1 - Blackberry½Ì³ÌÎĵµÇø - MAXPDAÂÛ̳ -BlackBerry-ºÚÝ®-Treo-Palm-PPC-PDAÂÛ̳
It shows pictures of the procedure described by larryweiliu and what I guess are explanations on how to do it. I thought the software was there but the rar file does not seem to work and the contents I think are the same screen shots on the page.
I couldn't find a place to download the software but still it is very interesting. If some one can get me a link to download the application or send it over email I will be really glad.

Bigupload works for me. Anyway, the attachment should work. Delete the .doc extension; it should be an rar file.

It works 100%, really easy. Thanks to larryweiliu. Great and simple solution.

It is reported that 7100 supports only JPG and PNG formats. Make sure your photos are either JPG or PNG.
Ringtones can also be imported into the phone with IPDManager. The folder is /home/user/ringtones. My friend says 7100 supports ADP and MINI no larger than 200KB.

Hello you all, I followed all the steps posted but "no can do", I think the IPDManager v1.0.0.18 is not working correctly because when I try to open the ipd file a alert comes up and it says "Stream read error.", any one encountered this problem?

Any one knows how I can update the OS in my device

[chuy_juarez]

only putting this thread on top of the list, has any one found a way to do this from the PC?
