I transferred some pictures from my PC to my iPhone 4G. I am unable to delete these pictures that were sent to my iPhone.

There is no iPhone "4G" - do you mean an iPhone 3G, 3GS, 4 or 4S? Also, can you add what version of iOS your phone is running? – CajunLuke Feb 7 '12 at 16:57

If you are using an iPhone 3GS, then you may still be on iOS 4. At this OS level, the ability to delete synced photos was not available, and you would only remove photos that you took with your camera in the camera roll. The only way to remove them, is to remove it from your sync list, and sync again.

Just to clarify, iOS 5 will run on a 3GS too. – binarybob Feb 7 '12 at 17:29
Oooh, good spot. My mistake. – stuffe Feb 7 '12 at 17:52
