G1 - how to get photos from my pc to my g1 phone?

This is how I did it. I am using Windows Vista so it maybe different for other OSs.

Find and select the picture(s) on your pc, copy them using CTRL-c.
Plugin your g1, and if you have installed the drivers, you need to goto your g1 and hold the USB icon on the top of the screen for a couple seconds. It should expand downwards, then pull it down. open the USB connected by toucing it. Touch the "Mount" button on the screen.

Autoplay dialog box should open on your pc, select "open folder to view files". open "dcim" folder. Paste the pictures in that folder.
NOTE: You will not be able to access the sdcard from the g1 until you unplug the USB after you're done.

Once all the pictures are uploaded into the sdcard, goto "My Computer" on your pc, rightclick the sdcard drive(it should be named like "Removable Drive" or something, and select "eject".

Now remove the USB cable, Select "Pictures" icon in you apps, if needed select "dcim" folder, and touch the pictures.


Siimilar can be done with music, just changing the instruction to "My Music" on your pc and also opening "Music" icon on your g1.

You said that your phone comes up as the "F:" drive.  Then that means that the path to your phone's photos would be "F:\dcim" without the quotes.
