As mentioned elsewhere I'm in the middle of transferring from my P910i to P1i.

My (latest!) problem is that I have a favourite picture of my two sons for the flip closed background but must have deleted it by mistake from Pictures some time ago (it doesn't show alongside the other pics). It is still showing as the back ground pic and I would like to copy or move it somewhere where I can then move it off the phone and on to my PC.

Is there any way of accessing the location where this pic is stored?
Do I need particular software?

I don't know how I managed to lose the 'original' but having looked at this pic several times a day for 2years the thought of never seeing it again isn't a good one

. Any advice would be most appreciated.

OK,

PM me with your email address and I will send you Epocware file manager for your PC. This seems not to be available any more. You need to have your phone in the cradle connected to PC suite for this to work.

Once connected, run Epocware file manager and navigate on the P910i as follows:

c:\system\data\themes\wallpaper\FcStandby_208x189.mbm

The phone converts the pic to .mbm file type and stores it there so it's still available after the original pic is deleted.

Simply copy the file to your PC and that's it done. You may need to convert the .mbm back to a ,jpg but you could always see if the P1i will accept that format. Probably will.

Hope you enjoy the P1i, I got rid of the bag of shit after a couple of weeks and went back to my trusty P910i. See what you think .......???
