    wallpaper/background

    I searched this, but couldn't find an answer.

    So I see the walpapers you can add, some people are sharing on here. So how do you get them on the device?

    I long press on the home screen and touch add wallpaper, but all I get are the stock ones? I have saved some options to a folder on the device (which I can see they are there when hooked to the PC) but when I try to get there on the device...no luck.

    Anyone help with this? Thanks. (not quite two weeks in on this thing)

    Get ASTRO file explorer if you dont already have it(ITS FREE IN THE MARKET) and you can navigate through the folders easier or when you save them , save them in your DCIM folder so that they are easily accessible. Once you unmount go to your pictures, you should see them. From there, just long press and select SET AS........and by the way, 960×854 are the best dimensions for the wallpapers. Anything other than that gives it a funky look.

    Its as simple as a long press and pressing the SET AS option but its all about WHERE you are saving the picture. I personally have a folder labeled wallpaper but when I save new wallpapers, I have to go to that folder. They dont appear in that WALLPAPER category that you see when you long press on your homescreen.

    It is Just Wallpaper -> Gallery and select the Wallpaper. Nothing more.

    You do not need a file manager.

    You dont NEED the file manager movieman but like I said earlier.........it makes it easier to navigate through your folders if you are having issues finding the files you save.
