Troubleshooting

How many images can I download on my phone?

The number of images you can have depends on your phone’s internal and/or external memory and what other images, ringtones, games or music files you have on it. Consult your phone user guide to determine how much memory is available on your specific model.

 

Why doesn’t an image I downloaded from another site work?

TELUS does not recommend using sites other than the TELUS webstore for downloading images and is not responsible for fees charged by other sites, or damage incurred by your phone, while attempting to download content from other sites.

 

How do I manage my images?

For more information about changing, deleting or assigning images, consult the user guide for your phone.

 

Can I transfer the images I download to another phone?

No, downloaded images cannot be transferred to any other phone.
