As the title:

Samsung S8300 : How to get photos off phones internal memory with no SIM or microSD

 

I've been handed a phone which has images stored on the internal memory.

 

If I plug it via USB to my PC to try and extract the files it says I need to install a memory card

 

Sending them via bluetooth was an option but I can't seem to pair the phone with either another phone or iPAD.

 

A bit stuck...

Have you tried Kies?

[kennysarmy]

No thanks - had forgotten about that - will give it a try...

Email to photo from the phone to say school email?

It's not the best bit of software, but you never know.

 

One tip: It likes Media Player on the latest version.

No wifi on the phone

 

Kies being installed....fingers crossed

[kennysarmy]

Software installed.

 

Insert USB cable to phone which prompts:

 

PC studio

or

Media Player

or

Mass Storage

 

If I choose Mass Storage it says "Insert memory card"

On Kies it states "This device is not supported by Kies 2.0"

 

If I choose PC Studio it shows a flashing cursor on the phone screen.

On Kies it states "Connecting" - but it never finishes.

 

Will see if I can find a download for Kies 1.0

[kennysarmy]

It will be going out the window soon....

 

Installed Kies v1.5

 

Plug phone in to PC - This device is not supported by Kies

[creese]

It's not great when the device is compatible.

 

Possibly worth a try though.

The S8300 uses PC Studio. You can download it from here GT-S8300 - DOWNLOADS | SUPPORT | SAMSUNG UK
