You select a picture. Long press on the picture and one of the options to pop up will be delete.

I tried that but the word delete is not highlighted. So it will not delete them.

I don't understand what you mean by highlighted. There is a list of options that should appear and delete is one of the options. I don't know what else to tell you. That's just the way it works.

I understand how it works but when I press the word delete nothing happens. I'm taking it back to the Verizon store tomorrow. Thanks though

Deleting pictures?

Rusty,
Did you have any luck getting rid of the pictures? I am having the same problem! My computer loaded tons of pictures on to my phone...

No I have not had any luck.I don't want to do a hard reset.Verizon was no help at all. They said it sounded like a hardware issue.

fixed mine today...

Hi there,
I've been searching since Christmas eve...I found another frustrated person who gave the advise that fixed mine today. For me it was a web album issue, I have Picasa and had four web albums with them. I hooked my phone up to my computer, deleted the web albums and turned off my phone. When I restarted it the pictures dropped off. I hope this helps you.

Connect to your computer is USB mode, go to the folder named DCIM, or any other folder you have pics, you will find your pics there. To completely get rid of them, also go to the thumbnails folder, and delete them also. This prevents them from reappearing in the gallery.

Forgot to add, after doing this, restart your phone.
