I was recently trying to add photos to my camera roll as i didnt want to sync them via itunes but was struggleing to find a solution.

I eventually got it working and heres what I did:

There seems to be a few rules re camera roll.
1. The files need to be uppercase and mine would only work if they were the same numbering format as the camera photos. (IMG_XXXX.JPG)
2. To get a preview of the image in camera roll there has to be an associated .THM file for each .JPG

To make the photos available I first created a copy of the photo and resized it to 50%. I then renamed the original to IMG_0100.JPG (if you already have photos in your 100APPLE/DCIM folder then you might want to start at a high number so as not to overwrite any images e.g IMG_5000.JPG) and then i renamed the copy that i created to IMG_0100.THM. A THM file is basically identical to the original .JPG and so all it requires is a copy and rename. I then copied into the relevant DCIM folder on the iphone and the photo was available.

I did this with approx 50 images and so copying / renaming etc on an individual basis would be a bit tiresome. I used IrFanView to batch convert images to 50% original size and then used BetterFileRename to rename the files.


Hope this helps,
Ste.

iPhone PC suite crashes on me before it can run. Thanks to the OP for posting this. I didn't realize that the .THMs are really just JPGS with different extensions.
