use curl to download indirect image file

I am try to download image files from url from the following code, but it doesn't return the right content from the server. The image can be rendered in browser by loading the url or downloaded using curl in shell mode, but not in php execution. In php execution, the header's content type returned from the server is 'text/html' instead of 'image/jpeg' which it supposes to be.

Anyone has any ideas about this?

$url = 'http://count.koubei.com/showphone/showphone.php?f=jpg&w=104&h=10&bc=255,255,255&fc=0,0,0&fs=10&fn=arial&phone=LTIxMDM3MjIyOTc%3D%23dWBzmKEZpTh7YcWvOw%3D%3D';
$file_handler = fopen('phone.jpeg', 'w');
$curl = curl_init($url);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_FILE, $file_handler);
curl_setopt($curl, CURLOPT_HEADER, false);

curl_exec($curl);

curl_close($curl);
fclose($file_handler);

why not just use file_get_contents like this

$img = file_get_contents("http://count.koubei.com/showphone/showphone.php?f=jpg&w=104&h=10&bc=255,255,255&fc=0,0,0&fs=10&fn=arial&phone=LTIxMDM3MjIyOTc%3D%23dWBzmKEZpTh7YcWvOw%3D%3D");
file_put_contents("photo.jpg",$img);
