thank you cckwes but this app seems not working well on n9. when i choosing a picture it goes ok then when its rebooting the device nothing happening just black background.

Please read this concerning the Harmattan PR1.2 update and this application! This application is seriously flawed and may cause your N9 not to work properly if you UNINSTALL it after upgrading to Harmattan PR1.2.

This application replaces the home screen CSS files with its own, which is a bad idea to begin with. In it's postinst script the application makes a backup copy of the original CSS files and overwrites them with its own. In the prerm script it overwrites the current CSS files with the backed up files.

If you install this application when running PR1.1 it will make a backup copy of the PR1.1 CSS files and replace them with its own. If you then upgrade to PR1.2, the standard PR1.2 CSS files will be installed. If you then uninstall this application, this application will overwrite the standard PR1.2 CSS files with the PR1.1 files it had backed up earlier, causing your system to run PR1.2 with the PR1.1 CSS files, which will not work and will lead to serious problems.

Users: You MUST uninstall this application BEFORE upgrading to PR1.2.

Author: Redesign the application. Do NOT overwrite any files. That's asking for trouble.

Fix: If you've been hit by this problem and the home screen malfunctions on PR1.2, you can restore the original PR1.2 CSS files by installing and uninstalling http://vesuri.jormas.com/restore-home-css/restore-home-css_1.2.0-1_armel.deb - there's no need to keep the package installed. This will overwrite the current CSS files with the official PR1.2 ones. Do not install this on any other Harmattan release or if you don't need to.

Thanks for providing us the solution. I would like to record my apologize here for reacting slowly to this problem. Glad that Vesuri providing a solution quickly.

Thanks for this info. I seem to have v0.0.3 and have already updated to PR1.2. Wondering if I should update to v0.0.4 or wait that developer provides a newer version. This issue makes me want to get rid of the whole app.

Thanks for this information!

I was affected by this issue and thankfuly Vesuri was able to help me with this fix. Care people, this app can be dangerous as only this package can fix this issue (not even resetting the device fixes the homescreen).

Another way to fix the problem would be to activate developer mode, gain root access to the device and run "apt-get install --reinstall meegotouchhome-nokia libmeegotouchhome0" but that probably isn't very obvious to the end users.

You're right, as end user this resolution is not so obvious. I just want a new version that fixes the problem - and allows me to get rid of this app.

Working!!! But must install on developer mode

Thanks for your info :)

when for n9 for normal user (not developers)?

"cckwes" in your N9 its working? I have soft: PR1.1 (20.2011.40-4-341.01.1PR341)

It's working on my N950 PR1.2, doesn't have a N9 to test....Will try to find a N9 to test it...

super!! Your application is absolutely necessary in this phone make this attractive. I wait for info. Thanks

Sorry still not working. I add picure programs ask about edit, after i doing apply, info about reboot but phone bot restart and still black bacgrounds. Pity, because the application is a revelation.

I instal twice, reboot phone, change pictures and... nothing. Maybe i must instal v 0.0.2 not 0.0.3

Hi, maybe you can try v0.0.4?

not working help!!! This is great function but how use it? I made all wallpapers in PGN format, this apps looks this but not change what i do wrong

After installed this app, my phone start bug and my home screen being orange after I use it.

hi, did you restart phone after install this application?

yes, i did

I believe there's another called home screen settings which is slightly more versatile/powerful.

But the original author (last I checked) is MIA, whereas at least this one's present and active.

I googled for continous backgrounds, here's one: http://www.layoutsparks.com/1/87117/lonely-bicycle-continuous-design-31000.html .Cropped to fit n9 and added some filters. All credits to original creator! Grab by edit for N9 here: http://www.mediafire.com/?qdhqvtnndwrfbnt

Yep, nice idea but doesn't work with 1,2, noway to choose from wallpapers...

make sure you use .png images and put them in the right folder...

It's a pity that it makes the phone slow. And not all backgrounds are suitable. Nice to have it though.

I can't get it to work. After I hit apply it doesn't do anything. Good idea though and hopefully it'll work with future updates.

So, where to find nice backgrounds? I'd also like to have three backgrounds that loop seamlessly. There's couple of backgrounds made by afaq from TMO: http://www.mediafire.com/?s43lc5t7efk3sek

Also, be sure to wait when selecting the background. It can take a quite a while to find the images.
