Nokia Operator Logo - Solution
The Nokia phones that support color operator logos may not allow
to assign the operator logo from the gallery.
To get a logo, you have to browse using GPRS. A picture is considered a logo
if its content type is image/vnd.nok-oplogo-color.
Here is how to bring an arbitrary file into your phone as an operator logo
if you have access to an HTTP server that supports CGI scripts:
- upload a picture to the server (sample file name is logo.gif)
- save the following shell script into a file with a name that ends with .cgi, e.g. get.cgi
#!/bin/sh
echo "Content-Type: image/vnd.nok-oplogo-color"
echo ""
cat logo.gif
exit 0
- make the file get.cgi executable
- browse to get.cgi with your phone
- In the "Settings-Display Settings-Operator logo" menu, select "On"
- Go to the main screen
- If you do not see the logo, then turn your phone off and back on
- If you do not see the logo, then your provider does not officially support
user-defined logos; the only chance to see it is the signal is weak when
you turn on the phone, but even that is not guaranteed. I only saw the logo
I have downloaded into my phone twice, and both times for a very short period.
