Alright, I just downloaded BerryWeather on my Tour. The ability of having the temperature and stuff right on the wallpaper was the main selling point for me getting this application; however, I cannot get to to change my wallpaper. I clicked on the "set as homepage" option, but my old wallpaper is still the background.

What gives?
What OS version do you have on your Tour? 4.7 or 5? Also make sure you downloaded the correct version of BerryWeather. You can download them at m.bellshare.com.
Please make sure to download the on specific to your OS.
Once that is done, you need to select the wallpaper you'd like from within the Homescreen Wallpaper settings. Save it and then refresh your home location.
The version I downloaded fresh from the site has the word "icon" instead of "wallpaper". The box "show temperature badge on homescreen icon" is checked.
I should also note I downloaded the free trial if that makes a difference at all.

That option is on the Homescreen / Notification Icon screen. You need to be on the Homescreen Wallpaper screen. The free trial is time-limited but has all the features of the full program. Did you download version 2.0 or version 1.5?

I have 4.7 installed right now. I downloaded the latest version off of bellshare...
You are in the right place, but you are missing a menu item. "Homescreen Wallpaper" should be between "Homescreen / Notification Icon" and "Weather Advisories."
Try rebooting your BlackBerrry. If that doesn't fix it, delete the app and reinstall it.
Already tried the n00b approach of rebooting my phone. I am trying the uninstalled/redownload approach now. We'll see how that goes.
Thanks Jeff and Gregg for helping me out so far!
No problem just make sure you download the correct version off of m.bellshare.com (4.7), set all permissions to allow (you can check the box when downloading that says 'set permissions) and then do a reboot. This should help and clear up the issue.
I had the same problem and it was because Mobihand sent me a link for a 4.2 download. Was really frustrating me too until I realized that I installed the wrong version.
Im almost certain that all of you are running 4.7 and not 5.0? I'm having many of these problems as well and I'm using 4.7.1.65 which is the latest official Tour release. I've been getting pretty good feedback from the Bellshare forum here: www.bellshare.com • Login
Here is my problem (copied from BShare forum):
Now that i do have the correct version for the Tour running the latest official update (4.7.1.65), I have the wallpaper option, but when i select a background and check the option for BW to be my wallpaper, nothing happens. Instead, my wallpaper changes to that particular themes default background and that's it. I've tried this across the stock zen theme and 3 other custom themes. Also, if I change my wallpaper to something else. BW resets it to the themes default wallpaper when it updates every hour. Help. I've been at this since early evening yesterday starting with the versioning problems.
My install process went as followed:
Uninstalled old version of BW
Battery pull
Installed 2.0
Battery pull
Wallpaper option there
Doesnt do anything.
All permissions are set to allow
I truly believe that you downloaded the wrong version. Uninstall the one on your phone and go to Bellshare - Premium BlackBerry Apps and click BerryWeather. Be sure to download the one for OS 4.7+
I am on a 4.7 Tour and here is my BW Options screen:
EDIT: disregard my post, I did not read that the OP solved his issue.
