How to "backup" AT&T Wallpaper ??

[linda anne]

Hi All,
I've seen the videos on "how to change wallpaper" on my new Torch, and it's pretty simple. In essence, you navigate to Media / Pictures / Wallpaper, pick what you like on that page and do a "Set as Wallpaper" with a few key strokes. HOWEVER, my AT&T phone came with 1/2 way decent wallpaper. It has an AT&T logo on a nice blue background. THAT wallpaper does NOT exist in my Wallpaper folder. What if I reset my wallpaper to something new but then decide I want to "go back?" Where do I find the original AT&T Wallpaper?

Thank you all..............

If you are using a factory ATT theme then on your home screen preferences you can hit reset wallpaper and it will go back to the default one it came with.

Just reset the wallpaper to the default for that theme. I'm sure someone has it uploaded in the wallpaper section here as well

save it on the computer then transfer it to the blackberry using the usb cable, so you can use any theme with the wallpaper.

Ahhhhhh, so, on my home screen I press the BB button just left of the track pad, then select Options, and see a screen that, (among other things), has buttons for "Change Wallpaper" and "Reset Wallpaper." By "Reset I would interpret that to mean "go back to the original AT&T logo screen? I'm taking this slow as I want to make sure we are both on the same page.

Your right but the reset will change it to the default of whatever theme you are using. If you choose a non-att theme then I suggest you download it from the link I gave you and save it for later use.

Hmmm, when you say "save it on the computer then transfer it to the blackberry using the usb cable" this implies to me I have downloaded the AT&T Wallpaper from on-line to my computer. Where do I find it to download? Then, given I have it on (say) my desktop, HOW do I get it to my BB using the USB cable? Do I first start BB Desktop Manager, plug in my BB, and then look for what to transfer a desktop image over USB? Or, do I just plug my USB cable into the phone, w/o the Desktop Manager running, and choose something other than the clock that appears on-screen when I go to charge? What is the exact step by step sequence to get an image from my PC desktop into my BB? Must the image be .jpg format, or? Any particular size? How do I get it to the Wallpaper folder? Also, you mention "theme" and "wallpaper?" What is the difference? Are there folders for both themes and wallpaper if they are different? )

I copied the AT&T blue page from the link you gave and saved it on my PC desktop. What is the "step by step" to get it from there to the Wallpaper folder on my BB? Are all the wallpapers that come with the BB considered "att themes?" I gess theme and wallpaper are the same and used interchangably? I've never seen a precise definition of each?

Nope themes are the overall look and wallpaper is just the background. You can use the same wallpaper on any theme you download. When you plug in your BB to the computer choose USB Drive. On the computer open my computer and look for the 2 drives that should have opened up. One is Blackberry, that is device memory and the other should just be a lettered storage drive, that is the media card. Open the media card and drag the wallpaper to the picture folder of the lettered drive. Now you can disconnect and find it in your media tab under pictures.
