Samsung SGH-T629
Odd Wallpaper Feature
If you take a picture with the camera and "set it as wallpaper" it appears on your phone in fullscreen. If you then move the picture to your microSD card, the wallpaper disappears (wallpaper pics must be saved on the phone, as well as mp3s for ringtones etc.). Now, if you go into your microSD card and choose the photo as your wallpaper, it will ask to "copy [back] to phone". After you confirm the move back onto the phone to make it your wallpaper - the pic IS NOT FULLSCREEN anymore, and fills out the top and bottom with annoying white! I know this is peculiar, but it seems that there is some "behind the scenes formatting" happening during memory card transfer - at least with pics... 🙄

I see, another great "feature" of this phone's software... I have tried to set a pic from my desktop as wallpaper. Before I transfered it I resized it to 176x220 pixels, which is the phone's screen size accd. to Samsung. Once I had the pic on the phone though, it wouldn't let me open it (it's a jpg, only 28 kB small).
How are you supposed then to get any wallpaper in fullscreen mode unless you buy only the ones offered from T-Mobile?

Using Bluetooth: Search Device (computer), Download picture, then look in Fun & Apps -> My Files -> Images -> My Downloads. View picture, press option and set as wallpaper. (Make sure it is jpeg and has the correct extension). This should work. (Otherwise, the _lame_ass_ way is to take a picture of the image when it is on your computer screen) You SHOULD NOT have to pay for wallpaper with this phone, or ringtones either! Thanx for the screen dimensions! 😁
