Background Pictures Being Washed Out
 

Im trying to put a simple wallpaper onto my Mogul, but when I select it from the Today Settings, it gets washed out. Doesnt matter which picture I choose. Anyone have any ideas?

What do you mean washed out? Can you take a screenshot?

this has been discussed place onto storage card and click and jold and than choose set as background

Please forgive me, how do I take a screenshot?

Take a look at the first post of this thread...

That should help ;)

I found out, sorry...

washedscreen.jpg is what it looks like now...
2040_small.jpg is what its supposed to look like...

I have tried copying it to the storage card and "Selecting as background" to no avail.

Any help?

Ok I see what you mean, I tested it out and it did the same on mine.

I could have sworn there was an option to adjust the transparency of the custom background image, but I couldn't find it... maybe it was on my 700wx?

Anyone else know about this? I'll keep playing with it and post any findings.

JUST figured it out. It was setting the picture as a background with a transparency lvel at like 60%. Dunno where that came from, but I corrected it, and all is well... Here is what it looks like now...

Yes, you have to physically open the picture on the Mogul, THEN go to the menu and set as today background. It will then ask you for the transparency level.

Close!

Put it any where on you device (including storage card). Open File Explorer, and find the pic. Tap & hold, select "Set As Today Backgound". Then it will ask you for the Transparency %, 0% is what you want. Then hit OK, and now you will not have a faded backgrond image on your today screen. :)


EDIT: Glad you figured it out End effect. :) The should be in a FAQ, as it is brought up from time to time.
