How do I transfer non-Camera Roll photos from iPhone3G to PC?

Years ago I copied thousands of sentimental family photos from a dying laptop to my then state of the art iPhone 3.


They were in multiple seperate folders, and NOT saved to the Camera Roll.


How can I transfer them back to my latest laptop as they obviously don't show in the iPhone explore when connected to a laptop etc.


I am desperate to retrieve these photos in full resolution as they are so sentimental.


The only option I know that works is by emailing 5 at a time .. but as there are nearly 6000 photos ... ugh! And obviously the basic iPhone3G doesn't have Cloud functionality.


There must be an easier way? Please help!


Many thanks in advance.

iPhone 3G, iOS 3.1.3

App called Send Anywhere is the solution to this.. after going through crazy amount of apps and trials with no success finally my bro found this.. with just a good wifi connectivity this app can work wonderfully.. we jst have to install it on both the devices .. the sender as well as the receiving device... luckily itunes has this app 🙂.. so voila we can easily trasnfer non camera roll photos now.. I did jst now around 1500 of them.. 🙂
