I searched and tried choosing different backgrounds by going through file explorer, pictures, or just choosing set as background in the album options. But nothing is working, I even tried changing the themes and choosing a different background from the option and I still see the random picture I somehow chose without knowing.
I restarted a couple times, and I did a soft reset and I still see the stupid leaf picture on the home screen after the initial "loading touch flo3d" is done (during the touch flo 3d part I can see the background that I chose until the touch flo3d loads).
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks
EDIT:
False alarm. Went to the settings tab and clicked on wallpaper and an option pops up saying "Would you like to restore the default wallpaper?"
Fixed the problem.

I've been working on a theme, but now I'm stuck with a problem that may or may not be related. Changing home screens certainly doesn't fix it. I was also experimenting with VJbasehue but changing back didn't help there either.
My problem is this: in the Start Menu the menu that you bring up with the soft keys now has white text on a white background. How do I set the text back to black?
Kermit
hard reset
Oh yeah, that's REAL funny.
Actually, just as mysteriously as it happened, it stopped happening. I have no idea why. (cue spooky music)

Maybe this methode works ? -->
Synchronize your tornado via Active sync and goto application data/home find the xml of your theme and change the value of colors police the restart your phone;
Sorry for my bad english
Use this program to change the system colors of your choice. You can install the file to your SD card if you want. To make the menu text black, tap sys. colors, scroll down to menu text, tap white customize box, slide all 3 color guides to far left to show "0"..Soft reset.
Here's a screenshot of what to do to make the menu text black or any color pattern of your choosing.

I found the cab file for instant installation of the program. You don't need the zip file now.
Yea....but how to tweak a Phone with an PPC app...
Yah, that's kind of hard to use a PPC app on a Smartphone. Although the concept is cool. I think PPC/Smartphones need a 'Display Properties' app like Windows itself has. Plus a way to automagically change icon sets. Plus lots of other neet goodies.

...and the colors are FUBARed again. BTW, this time around I'm not altering color settings in the home screen file, but I am working on new icons. I didn't change the background screen, so why these colors are changing is a mystery.
KW
Ooops, sorry. I thought I was at the Wizard forum
Quite all right - I finally just set all the colors in the SCHEME in the home screen and that stabilized things.
I'm still wishing I could figure out for once and for all how to change the color of the text on the start menu.

I got my Fuze this weekend and finally got around to tweaking it. However, i've run into a problem i can't seem to figure out. Whenever i go to Settings > Today > and select a custom background (I've disabled TF3D) the background images are always greyed out.
It is as if a 50% opacity white screen is overlayed on top of the background. All of the functional components on my today screen are fine, but the background is just greyed out. It is really annoying and i don't know how to fix it, can anyone help?
Also, i tried downloading a theme from here, but when i applied it, some of the menu items (the start menu background, for instance) stayed the same color as the previous theme. However, their today screen background displays perfectly, the moment i change it, it's greyed out again.
So really, i suppose i have 2 issues.
i had this problem already with wm5, its some sort of protection, that you really can read all what is on the main screen...only way i could solve that was using some theme editor :-/
Using a file explorer, browse to and open the image you want to set as your background.
'Menu' > 'Set as Today Background' > Change the 'Transparency Level' to 0% > 'OK'
Hope that helps....
hddn_agnda, I LOVE YOU MAN. That worked smashingly, thank you!
I have a HTC Touch Diamond . When I try to change the today menu it doesn't save it.. all it leaves is Call History and Calendar. I go into settings and click the Today icon and I go to items and check off what I want to be displayed and hit ok, but it doesn't save it. Also, I download some weather applications with a "today screen plug-in," and those don't show up on the Today screen either.
Am I doing the setting change wrong? Is there something special I have to do to get the plugins to work?
Sorry, going to sound like a silly question but you have turned off touchflo 3d yes? Other today plugins wont work otherwise.
First of all, I'm not using TouchFlo. I changed the background once when I first got the phone about a week ago and it didn't give me any problems. But yesterday I tried to change the background and it just goes to a blue image. No matter what background I choose, where I choose it from it won't change. And neither will the theme. However, on the Start Menu the image in the background of that is the same as the ORIGINAL background image.
What is going on?
p.s. Yes I did search but did not find a comparable problem.
Also, if I try to change the background and then go the Theme settings the "Use this Image as background image" thing is blank. No matter what.
No body has any idea?
I mean default theme...
So I am having a bit of a problem. I've been messing around with themes, including some I've made myself. I've noticed that if a theme doesn't change something, switching to that theme leaves you with what your previous theme set that setting to. This can lead to some ugly combinations. Unfortunately, this includes the built in themes in the phone, and I've messed up some things and am trying to start fresh. Is there any way to do so, other than reseting my phone completely? The biggest issue is that I end up with an ugly black bar in certain places (I tried unsuccessfully to make the background of the entire settings app black). Aside from this, it also appears in the contacts app, which covers the save/discard changes buttons. When I first open settings, the correct headers actually flashes briefly, but then I get this:http://i.imgur.com/4V4Gm1p.png
you should try to launch default launcher which is generally done by pressing Home button...
