You’ll only find this feature on selected Nokia phones. Its default is switched to
‘Home Network only’, which means that uploads do not occur while abroad. You can change it by:
- clicking on ‘options’
- selecting ‘settings’
- selecting ‘upload/update settings’
- either choose ‘Home network only’ (default) or ‘Anywhere’
- finally, just confirm your choice

- Yes, this is an existing feature on the online album. When you give us your mobile number, within your online album(s), we can send you a WAP push to your phone.
- What happens if I lose network coverage while uploading my photos to the online album?
- Don’t worry, the Orange Photography application manages the connection across the network, so it will resume your upload once you’re back in coverage. Dependant on your phone this may happen in the background, on JAVA phones you might be asked if you’d like to continue.
- If I don’t choose a Photography bundle, can I use other data bundles (e.g. Orange World Access 4) for the data upload?
- Yes, you can use other data bundles with the online album.
- It’s taking a long time to upload my photos. What should I expect?
- It all depends on whether you’re using GPRS or 3G, the level of coverage you’ve got and the resolution of the photograph. The range of times varies, but in good coverage with a 2 megapixel picture, it should take around 3−5 minutes.
- What happens if I forget my online album password?
- Don’t panic, just visit Orange.co.uk and go to Your Account sign−in. Then follow the ‘forgotten your password’ link.

- Once the photos are on my album can I get them back onto my phone?
