Fix blurry images in phone browser / carrier compression

When browsing on your BlackBerry you may notice images can be quite blurry or distorted. This is because your network provider is compressing the images before they are downloaded on to your phone’s browser.

Unfortunately there is no way to prevent this from happening, but if you have a WiFi connection nearby, then you can turn WiFi on. This will mean that all image downloads come through the WiFi connection, rather than your carrier, and the images should appear normally.
