Motorola K3 technical manual Graphics & Video, Supported Picture Formats, Type Description

Graphics & Video

This chapter describes the graphic environment available in the MOTOKRZR K3. It includes information on picture and animation formats, size restrictions, pre-defined media, and more. Use this chapter as a reference when creating pictures or animations that support your products.

In general, file size is limited by available memory. All media (wallpaper, screensavers, ring tones, and themes), whether pre-loaded on the device or downloaded by the user, share the same storage area. The available memory for downloaded files will vary based on the media pre-loaded into the device. This pre-loaded media will vary from region to region and from carrier to carrier. Motorola recommends keeping all media files as small as possible to ensure the consumer has the ability to download and use a variety of files to enhance the user experience.
