Changing the Home Screen’s Wallpaper

To change your Home screen’s wallpaper, you take slightly different steps. Follow the first two steps for putting widgets and app shortcuts on the Home screen, and then:

  1. Tap Wallpapers. You’ll see the three types of wallpaper you can add: Gallery, Live Wallpapers, and Wallpapers.

  2. Tap the type of wallpaper you want to add. For this example, choose Live Wallpapers.

  3. Flick through the list until you see one you want to add. Tap it.

    Your Tab’s screen fills with the wallpaper. Since you’ve chosen a live wallpaper, you can change its options by tapping the Settings button. For example, on the Maps live wallpaper, you can choose whether the map should also display traffic and weather.

  4. If you decide you don’t want to use the wallpaper, tap the Back button to return to the previous screen. If you want to use the wallpaper, tap “Set wallpaper.”

    That’s it—you’ve just set your wallpaper. Tap any panel to see it. Note that the same wallpaper will be on all of your Home screen panels. You can have only one wallpaper on all five panels; you can’t set different ones for individual panels.
