Is it possible to have an animated gif as our background?

I was wondering if I can make an animated gif as the background on my Nokia 3650 phone?
I know Nokia 7650 can do this but not sure if it will work with 3650.
Thanks

I tried to install the program and it crashed on my 3650.

I forgot the actual error message but it failed to run on it.

Any idea how to run the animated gif without 3rd party software?

If I am not mistaken, 7650 can do it without 3rd party software.

thanks

Did you restart the phone after installing?? It needs that.

No it cant, needs eProfiles.

hahaha... you are so fast replying my thread.

I was gonna post that I read it wrong the other day.

I was gonna correct it but you got it first.

I'm gonna reinstall eprofiles one more time and will update it once I am done.

thanks .... you are probably the fastest mod I've ever seen.... 😊

eprofiles gives me a system error. I restart my system a few times already and it still gives me the same error message.

I am using 1.34 firmware.

anybody else have the same problem?

thanks

what eprofile do you use? the pro one or not? I tried the pro one and it gave me system error.

let me try it again and update my comment...

thanks

GEEZ.. I'm so disappointed when i played back my record camera there's no sound there....😞.........
What should I Do?..... Geezzzzz..damn nokiaa.........OPs .......

But I still loved their product 😊 eheheheeehee

^^

ok, I got it to work by installing it under the phone memory.

However, I am not able to make my animated gif to move on the background.

I already selected the gif on the eprofiles but it didn't do anything.

Am I missing something?

Maybe someone would like to guide me step by step how to make the background to move?

thanks

When you select in the eProfile the image, and if it is a .gif ,
the app asks, do you want to try to animate the background.
And then it will animate.
