I recently a bag with a lot of old flip phones that had family pictures. The flip phone giving me the most trouble is the Sanyo PM-8200. This phone has no bluetooth, no wifi, and no SD card slot or SIM slot. Additionally, i have connected the phone to my PC and it does not even show up as a device, it only charges. I have heard of a software called BitPim which is supposed to read the files on old phones, but the program does not seem to work on my computer. Is there any way to transfer the photos or is there a company that could do it for me?


Have you confirmed the cable you are using to connect the phone to laptop is a data cable? I have had a few of these that came with just charge cable but when I found a data cable it loaded drivers for a camera and was able to move pictures over. but can't remember if it was same model.

You can connect the phone to a computer in order to transfer pictures, music and other types of files. All you have to do is connect a USB cable between the phone and computer. From your computer's file explorer, you can drag and drop content between your phone and the computer.


I am trying to save the photos from an LG gplg440gb flip phone to my computer so they can be backed up. The phone works fine as far as I can tell. It can make calls, take photos and play the built-in games fine. I have tried using the micro usb connection, which didn't work. The phone can charge through the USB but the computer never detects it. I have tried on other computers and with other cables, to no avail. I have tried both LG Bridge and LG PC Suite, neither of which worked.


According to the manual for that phone, you may have a couple of viable options. The manual isn't very clear about the one more promising choice, but you can view the album and select images, then select "send via" to transfer the photos selected. It's possible that you can do only one at a time, but that's not clear from the manual.


I recently got a TCL FLip Pro (I don't really like smart phones) and was looking forward to putting in some wallpapers. I try to transfer images from my desktop to the phones Gallery but they never appear. Ok, fine I guess I'll download them from the phone's browser. The problem with that is I have no idea how to right click and Save As like I do on my computer. It seem I can only download an image if it specifically has a link to do so. Help please?


HI I was wondering if someone could give my some help or ideas on how I could transfer my photos from my samsung flip phone. I was using Samsung Kies before to transfer my photos but Now Samsung Kies does not work on my computers anylonger to do this. So I was wondering if some body could suggested some ideas on how I might go about transfering my photos over from my Samsung flip phone to my computers. I have one desktop with windows 10 home and one laptop with Windows 11 64 bit operating system


I would just like to say that I did download smart switch from the samsung.ca website. Then I installed it on my windows 11 laptop once it was installed I connected my Samsung SM-B780W to the smart switch software. But I must say that nothing happend the software did nothing it just stayed on the connect screen. I also connected my usb cable to my cell phone then to my laptop in the software. Nothing changed. So then I tried connecting my usb transfer cable to my laptop and then to my samsung cell phone but when I went to file explorer and then I clicked on This Pc my samsung folder did not come up as a device below the windows c drive.


Our smartphones have sophisticated noise canceling technology that prevent noises around you, like wind, construction, cars, and other people's voices from overpowering your own voice while your on the phone.






I actually missed a couple important calendar events because I didn't get the alerts and notifications on my smartphone. I almost missed paying for my monthly train pass from the suburbs of New York, which would've resulted in me paying more to get to work than I had to.


A picture message is a message which can contain pictures and other media files and can be sent to other mobile phones. If you can't send and receive picture messages as soon as you've inserted your SIM, you need to set up your phone for picture messaging.


I've been fiddling with my flip phone for about 20-30 minutes it seems and cannot get the thing to receive test pictures. It's not a huge deal, I only wish to use my phone as a phone but the simple fact that I cannot get something to work as intended irks me.


I'd like to point out something about my flip phone, which may be different for anyone else, but on my phone, there is no way to enable or disable data, data will automatically activate on its own when it detects that it needs to be used; normally there is an icon at the top-left of my screen, a blue box with "3G" in it, and when data is activated, this will turn from blue to red and have a sort of signal/WIFI wave protruding out of it from the right side while it receives or sends data.


I configured 2 of those phones a few months back, took trial and error for a few days but the fix was after u go in settings and change all the apn to public mobile you have to go in messaging and setting and picture message I believe and and a few settings in there and then hit activate and restart the phone! I had it that the phones could receive the pictures but they couldn't send them but after a while it worked


Even with your Galaxy Z Flip folded, the Cover screen can act as a viewfinder for quickly taking that selfie. To take Quick shot selfies when the phone is folded, double press the Side key. Press either the Volume up or Volume down key to capture the photo. To see your photo, unfold the phone and tap the Gallery icon from the Camera app. You can also use the Cover screen preview when unfolded by tapping the icon in the lower right corner to turn on the preview.


Hello, I have a sprint flip phone here that my girlfriend has saved for years because it has pictures on it, the problem is the phone is broken in half, as in I have a screen half and a keyboard half and the keyboard still works, and I am assuming the phone still works because it lights up when I plug it into a computer and it attempts to install the drivers on my computer, but I can't see it on my computer, but when I go to device manager I see it listed, however it says that there are no installed drivers... So does this mean that the install attempt failed? The phone is listed under "Other Devices" and is named LG CDMA USB Modem.



I am unsure on how to proceed with this situation, as I do not want to install a bunch of drivers on my computer or something I don't need, so if anyone knows of how I can accomplish this I would love to hear it!

I found a solution on Youtube but alas that does not work with phones that do not have a mini hdmi plug, as this phone only has the power, headphones, and micro SD slots.



All I care about is retrieving these pictures so I can get rid of the phone, because I am secretly making her a scrap book and I think it would blow her mind if I can get these pictures off of here, because sprint told her they are lost and she has tried several times!



Any information would be appreciated greatly, thank you.


As much as I was hoping it would be easy it seems like it won't be, as the pictures are stored on the phones internal memory not on an seperate SD card, that was the first thing I checked lol.... is there a way to make a usb mini such as the one you linked above, with some kind of adapter switch it over to hdmi? or is that kinda not possible? If I can get the screen to appear on a diffirent device I can turn that function on, other wise I will have to find a way to make the PC force the settings some how, like using adp.push or something similar but since it is pre-android I am stuck....


Intelligent, compact, and virtually indestructible, the next generation ultra-rugged feature flip phone, DuraXV Extreme+ offers enhanced features while delivering the durable reliability Kyocera is known for.


In the early summer of last year, after I'd gone into a few stores that didn't have anything dumb enough, a T-Mobile rep located a Kyocera flip phone somewhere in their shop's back room. I don't think he had sold this model to someone under 60 before. Once he gave up trying to upsell me, he seemed amused. Even before the SIM card was in, flipping the new device open and closed brought back memories of how visceral, how tactile, it was to end calls with a snap. No more dabbing the screen with my thumb.


But before opting for anything so outlandish as rocking a flip phone in 2020s NYC, I first sought out more reasonable solutions. I downloaded an app that would pop an alert onto my screen once I'd gone over an hour per day. This worked for a couple of days, but once my reserves of determination had been depleted, the app lost all its power. Every 15 minutes, I would swipe away the warnings updating me on just how much I'd exceeded my limit.


By the evening of May 1, 2021, the transition was underway, and I said farewell to my various WhatsApp and Signal threads, sending along a video of me unboxing the new device, which yielded the expected OMG vibes and slack-jawed emojis. I'd joined a tribe that consists of those lacking tech savvy, those who don't want to pay for a data plan, and those deliberately rejecting one of the most alluring fruits of modern technology for one reason or another. A disparate tribe to be sure, which reportedly includes Rihanna, Aziz Ansari, Chuck Schumer, and, until recently, Warren Buffet ("It's the one Alexander Graham Bell gave me," he told Piers Morgan while burnishing his Nokia flip phone in an interview).


As a kid in the '90s, I used to be bored sometimes. I'd pace around, past my TV limit for the day, and I had to figure out something to do. It's a nearly inconceivable feeling when you have access to a smartphone and other screens. We can be half-bored, doing something we derive no great satisfaction from, but not fully bored in the sense of being compelled to expend creative energy to come up with an activity or something to think about. Before my year of technological abstinence, I realized I hadn't been properly bored in years. The second that uncomfortable blankness hit my mind, my hand would make a Pavlovian beeline for the phone, and within seconds I'd be surfing headlines or texting or immersed in some other stream of its digital flow.
