How do I use the uploader?

1. Find the picture/ringer/game/whatever that you want to upload. Make sure it is saved on your computer.
2. Go to the upload form
3. If you are uploading a Java midlet (game or application), you need to skip down to the second form. If you are trying to upload a ringer, image, or other type of file, use the first upload form.
4. In the "Send To" box, enter one of the following:
   • Your Sprint cellular phone number that you want to send the file to.
   • Your phone's SMS email address (any phone carrier).
   • Leave it blank (no SMS message will be sent)
5. Press the "Browse" button and find the file you want to send to your phone.
6. Not Java Midlets: Enter a description of the file. This is what it would be named on your phone, so make your name short and to the point.
7. Java Midlets Only: If you like, you can specify where the midlet will be saved on your phone. You don't need to do this if you don't want to.
8. Press the Upload button.
9. Wait for the page to load. It could take a while if you are uploading a large file or if you are using a slow connection.
10. If you entered your Sprint phone number: A text message will be sent to your phone with the URL you need to go to in order to download the file.
11. If you entered your phone's email address: A text message will be sent to your phone with the URL you need to go to in order to download the file.
12. A jump code will be displayed on the screen. You can point your phone's web browser to the address shown and type in the jump code shown to download the file.
13. Your phone may prompt you about downloading the file. Eventually, you should be able to make it through any further hoops and the file should be saved on your phone.
14. From here, you are on your own. Consult your manual for further information.
