Wallpaper problem

I have been messing about with my iphone and I can’t change my wallpaper, regardless which photo I choose the same photo stays on the screen.

Any help appreciated

Re: Wallpaper problem

I only have summerboard installed, so I can't comment on Customize - have you restarted the phone? I only ever restart the phone when I have to - usually to clear niggles like this.
Try it again, restart the phone. If that doesn't work, try another method, restart the phone, so and so forth. Try only one method at a time.

Not really that helpful - sorry.

Re: Wallpaper problem

I have both installed and been having a few problems too. Try this it seems to work for me. If you havent alreay done so, go into summer board then click on theme and make sure you have customise selected. Then try to change your wallpaper. That should work

Re: Wallpaper problem

not sure i know what you mean on how you restart it?
is it press the power button and the button at the bottom together, if so then it does not work.
also tried the other method of changing to customise and that didn't work either.
Thanks for the suggestions though

Re: Wallpaper problem

I had this problem when I had my iPhone. I'm sure reinstalling Customize solved it.

No that didnt sort it.
A little progress ! If i go into customize/customize images/sounds/wallpaper
Lockscreenwallpaper ( this has an image that i could not get rid off )
But when i go into it i can choose from three images.
Now if i go into customize/customize images/sounds/wallpaper/wallpaper ( can only chosse the same three images)
If i take a photo it wont set as wallpaper.
Same if i go through settings/wallpaper ( it wont set them as well )
Is there a way to reset the iphone back to the day i ziphoned it ?
