I have no idea why this is.09-26-09 07:26 AMLike 0 - what I am trying to do is when I take a pic. Then I hit reset as home screen image this works on all the pics I took when the storm was hooked to verizon now it is ATT and all it will do with the new pics is go to a black screen09-26-09 08:10 PMLike 0
- No problems here, but I am running 4.7.0.151. I can set any image as background. Although if ya dont size it for the screen sometimes it will get distorted a bit, there is a way to resize it to the screen but not sure how at the moment (on the Storm anyway, its easy to do once transfered to PC).

Open up a picture you want to set as the wallpaper and while viewing it full screen, hit Menu/Reset Home Screen Wallpaper. And then Hit Menu/Set as Home Screen Wallpaper. Then back all the way out and it should be set.09-27-09 10:04 AMLike 0

- Don't know why that is... never had any issues like that. Have you tried starting with a blank security wipe to see if perhaps it's one of your restored settings from your backups possibly causing the issues?09-27-09 01:36 PMLike 0

this could cause the issue...
also, sometimes when i drag/drop pix onto my phone and i try to set as a wallpaper it won't work...usually when this happens, when i try to view the image (not the thumbnail, actually selecting the image, clicking it, whatever you wanna call it, and showing it as "full screen", it won't show up)
what i suggest is this:
with your PC, plug your phone in, go to your photos folder on your device, cut and paste all of your pictures onto your desktop. make sure you delete the bbThumbs.dat from your phone. reboot your phone, allow it to scan your memory card and create a new .dat file.
now cut/paste your pix back to your device, and delete the bbThumbs.dat file again...then reboot your phone again.
for some reason if the .dat file isn't overwritten properly when you add/remove/edit/whatever to the media, then it won't "play right" with the phone...it seems a bit redundant, but it seems to work when i have issues.09-27-09 02:13 PMLike 0 - No, I've never done that. Could be possible but to be honest I wouldn't do it just because it's not that big of a deal to me. I've bricked my Storm however, does that count as a blank security wipe?09-27-09 05:48 PMLike 0
- No, it doesn't because you're restoring your data afterwards. A Security Wipe doesn't wipe the OS, just your personal data off the phone... that's what matters, not the OS being left behind... as long as the OS isn't the issue here, as some versions did exhibit this perticular issue at one point in the past.09-27-09 05:50 PMLike 0
