How to upload logo's to Nokia phones by RafkeP

How to upload logo's to a NOKIA 3210.

This guide is written for a Nokia 3210, but that doesn''t mean it can''t be used
for other types of Nokia as well. It''s just that the only mobile phone, which
supports logos, I own is a 3210, so I am not able to check out the features for
other types. There is a lot of software available, but this guide will only explain
Logomanager by Mike Bradley since it''s the most user friendly and has a lot of
other features. You can get the program here : h**p://www.logomanager.co.uk In
order to use the program you will need an F/M-bus cable. You can get those in
your local mobile shop. Connect the cable and start LogoManager.

LogoManager Main Screen

If your phone is properly connected you will see "Connected" in the status bar
(located in the bottom left corner). In case it says "Not Connected", check your
settings under Tools / options from the menubar. If your settings are correct
try switching your phone off and back on. Uploading an Operator Logo.
Operator logos are displayed when you are logged onto the network. Usually it
consists of the name of your mobile operator. Before you open the logo, make sure
LogoManager is set to editing operator logos. Press the appropriate button in
the task bar.

Operator Logo Mode

Open the operator logo, you wish to send to the phone, by pressing the Open File
button.

The operator logo will now be shown in the editor.

Operator Logo Loaded

If you want to make some final modifcations to the logo you can do so by using
the tools on the right side. Since the tools are basicly the same as in any other
drawing program and the logos are perfect as they are ;o) , I will not go any
deeper into this. Press the upload button and the logo will be sent to the phone.

Upload Logo

If all went well, you will hear the phone beep and the statusbar will display
"Logo Sent". A Nokia 3210 can only hold 1 operator logo at a time, so if you want
your original logo back you will have to reset it. You can do this by selecting
Tools \ Set logo to default from the menubar. The new logo will then be lost.
Uploading a Screen Saver Logo or Picture Message. Screen savers
and picture messages are bigger than operator logos, so activate the picture message
mode by pressing the appropriate button.

Picture Message Mode

A Nokia 3210 has 14 default picture messages. If you wish to send another one,
you will have to replace 1 of those 14. It might be a good idea to check which
picture is stored at which location. To do this press the download button.

Download Logo

Enter the number of the location you wish to check and press OK to download the
image from the phone.

Location Screen

The image will now be shown in the editor. When you found a good location, open
the picture message logo you wish to send to the phone by pressing the Open File
button.

The logo will now be shown in the editor.

Picture Message Logo

Press the upload button,

Upload Logo

Enter the location and press OK to upload the image to the phone.

Location Screen

If all went well, you will hear the phone beep and the statusbar will display
"Logo Sent". That''s all there is to it. Feel free to experiment with the
program''s other features. You will find out it has a lot to offer. This is only
the first version of the tutorial. For comments, suggestions and questions send
me an IM or post them in the appropriate forum. In future I will try to update
it for other types/brands and infra red sending. Enjoy, Rafke P.
