  3. 5530 Wallpaper Issue

    While using phones theme and trying to set a new wallpaper from memory card I get this strange problem. The wallpaper gets set but at the top, above the contacts bar, there's a transparent thick line showing the previous wallpaper. Tried everything, can't
    get it to work... Any suggestions?

    Strange Firefox glitch (in XP only?) with wallpaper

    Hey All,

    So i was using a compy in the lab today, and of course since the school is cheap they are still running XP and the ugly fisher price UI.

    Anyway, if you notice in this screenshot, there seems to be a tearing of the window, in this case, firefox, where the wallpaper seeps through.

    I want to think this is just a bad buildup of resource management, but, I'm curious if anyone else has seen this.

    Not a major issue, just humorous. *Nutkick :nutkick:

    Thanks for any strange suggestions, or oddly, a solution??? Eh, its silly whichever.
