N70 wallpaper stuck

4 replies · 1,681 views · Started 15 February 2006

I got an N70 on Orange on Saturday.
I've been annoyed by loads of little things that I've found (no birthdays on calender, lack of stuff that can use the Goto menu & just a rather confusing interface compaired to my old 6230) & I've noticed from this forum that I'm not alone in some of these 😉

However, I've found a rather more annoying bug.

My wallpaper's stuck.
I deleted the file & thought that would fix it, but it didn't, so I downloaded FExplorer & found some of the images I'd had as wallpaper in C:\system\skins\ (all called wallpaper.mbm).
I've also tried removing the battery & memory card, but no joy.

The OS is V 2.0537.1.7

Any ideas how I can fix my wallpaper problem?

Yep, it's got that.

The wallpaper used to work- I was quite happily fiddling with different ones, until it got stuck 😞

The filetype that generates the wallpaper is .mbm, so look for that on your c: drive.
