Camera & Pictures

Before you begin

All the pictures you can capture or view on your phone are stored on an SD card, which must be
installed in your phone. Before you can use the Camera or view pictures in Pictures, make sure you
have a card installed. (Read more in "SD card slot" on page 11.)
When you first receive your phone, the camera sensor window (on the back cover) will be protected
by a plastic film. Be sure to peel off this film before using the camera.

Load pictures onto your SD card

Read the instructions below to add pictures to your SD card. Read more about inserting or removing
an SD card in "SD card slot" on page 11.
1 Mount your microSD card to your computer by doing one of the following:
• Remove the SD card and insert it into a card reader attached to your computer; or,
• Attach your phone to your computer using a USB cable that came in the box. If you use this
method, make sure the
storage
check box is selected. It is selected by default.
2 On your computer, find the mounted USB drive and open it.
3 Create a folder at the top-level called "Pictures" or some other descriptive name and open it.
4 Copy .jpg or other image files into this folder. To organize pictures into albums that will display
in the Pictures application, create a folder and copy pictures there for each album you want to
display.
5 When finished, close the USB drive window and unmount or eject the drive as required by your
computer's operating system. You can also go to
storage
, and clear the
phone and computer.
