Changing the wallpaper on the E-Ink side

User since December · 04-15-2011, 01:26 PM

Help!
I used a jpeg for the E-Ink wallpaper. I wanted to change it to a different image, but I can't seem to remember how I did it. I know how to reset it to the original default wallpaper, but for the life of me I don't recall how to use a picture from the library.
Does anyone out there know how to do this?

Use the Gallery app to find the image. Tap-and-hold the image and "Set as Reader Wallpaper".

I'm going by memory here as my Gallery app under Ermine apparently has lost track of the pictures I had on the device and I can't get it to find any...

Your memory serves you well. The Gallery app is exactly how to change the wallpaper on the Reader. I don't know how I managed to stumble upon it the first time, and I am certain that without your help I would never have recalled it on my own.

Having gotten my Gallery to work again, I can clarify that in the initial Gallery view you tap-and-hold, then "Set As", then "Reader Wallpaper". If you've clicked on an image so it's full screen, just tap the image and you'll see a "Set As" action in the top left corner. Tap that and select "Reader Wallpaper".

Seems to work very nicely: the image is scaled proportionally to fully fit width or height.
