I've noticed that problem as well, and not only with Themes I make myself, but also themes I download from sites and the themes that came with the phone. 😕

This very thing happened to me yesterday afternoon. I freaked out. I set the theme to one of the factory installed ones, then I power cycled the phone. Once the power came back up I was able to switch to the created/downloaded themes & they worked perfectly again.

I have no idea what causes this. Maybe a bug? Its not a big deal to me as long as it doesn't happen often & it is easily fixable.

Im sure thats all it is, is a bug and will probably be addressed in upcoming firmware updates. It has happened to me too often, and like you said, it is easily fixable.

Hey Adam, when you turn your phone off and on? Does it take a little bit to power off and back on when you press the button?

When I press my button to turn it off or on, either on, there's like a 5+ delay. It hasnt been more than 10 secs though.

Yeah, mine has that power-off delay too. Really freaky.

I get little to no delay when powering off (3 secs max, if that). When powering on, I get sometimes as much as 5 or 6 secs.

Are you guys experiencing the wallpaper bug at random? The one time I experienced it, I was playing with the phone, repeatedly cycling to different themes.

I've experienced it randomly as well. It's probably happened a total of 3 times, and I cahnge and play around with different themes very frequently. It would never fix itself until I would power cycle the phone though.

I think we've realized a few of the reasons this phone may have been delayed, dontcha think?

If these are the reason the phone was delayed, why didn the looooooong delay correct these problems? I dont believe any of these things to be the reason for the delay.

Maybe these issues were WORSE at that time...note that other than a slightly slow menu system which seems to be an issue with most SE phones (not just this model) i've never had anything go wrong w/ mine *knock on wood*
