    Well if you have the same or earlier software version than T61TEV11 then it should work. (Settings / Phone Info / Software Version)

    Perhaps try deleting the mmsRingerIndex.map or mmsImageIndex.map or mmsDrmRingerIndex.map files in relation to the "FINISHING UP" Step.
    Make sure you reboot your phone after!

    Yup, followed your instructions and still can't see/hear custom uploads. Perhaps I just got a phone that TELUS finally modified to be completely incapable of u/l'ing custom content.

    As a matter of fact I have solved that problem!

    Basically, I have read a few tutorials on this thephonemall.net LG Tutorials and eventually came up with how to add MIDI ring tones and wallpapers in PNG, JPG and GIF format. It is a variation of the tutorials mentioned in the link above.

    Basically if you read the "[Tutorial] LG 6190 - Upload MP3 Ringtones!" it is the concept, the only difference for MIDI ringtones is that you need to add a ".desc" file to the same directory the ringtone is in. (same place where the body file is)

    Now for Wallpapers you use the Wallpaper Firectory insteal of the Ringtones directory, same concept as the tutorial above, just place the appropriate ".desc" file in the directory.

    NOTE:
    Remember to delete the appropriate INDEX file and reboot your phone. These files are located in "/Download/dloadindex/" "brewImageIndex.map" or "brewRingerIndex.map"

    I created a package HERE which contains all the ".desc" files required.


    EDIT:
    I created a tutorial.

    Hi guys,

    I've connected to the phone successfully and can download images with no problem. When I try to upload wallpaper or mp3 ringtones, the phone takes them, but nothing displays/plays (yes, they are formatted properly as described in the phone mall faq's)

    I'm really at a loss here. Has anyone been able to get this phone to accept uploads? Is there something special you're supposed to do to get it to work??

    Any help is appreciated.

    weird, I used a different program "QPST" to download my pictures cause I had 47 on my phone. now I just checked BitPim and it is working.

    So keep that in mind when you have a large sum of pictures.

    Hmm that's wierd... The camera image downloading has always worked for me - you just have to go into each of the "pic##.jpg" folders, save the "body" file to your machine and remember to rename it to "whatever.jpg". What kind of error message do you get when you try to pull down the images off your phone?

    I have been using the latest version. it dont work for me for my camera pictures.

    Yeah, that's right. The tutorials at that URL have been great. Chris, you should also get the latest version of BitPim (v0.7.26)... it's been alot better for me than 0.7.23 which I had previously been using.

    And all of the tutorials for downloading cam pics, uploading ringers and wallpapers can be found at the phonemall site... One last word of caution though - don't try to import your Outlook calendar onto your phone - it may appear to have worked, but when you try to reboot your phone, it may not start up again (e.g. if there's more data in your schedule than you had anticipated, your phone might croak!)

    Cool, I will examine that. It may help.

    rdilawri, I believe, is using the LG 6190 tutorials thephonemall.net has posted for downloading camera pics and uploading ringers, am I right?
    Customers who have purchased our LG 6190 USB Data cables, using our tutorials, seem to ahve no problems with images or ringtones.

    any luck with downloading pictures taken with the camera? the cam folder under filesystem. Bitpim always crashes when i open that directory.

    I haven't had any problems with mp3 ringtones, just so long as I convert them down with these settings: 22050Hz / Mono / 48 bitrate and then rename it to "body" within it's folder on the filesystem.
