so I uninstalled summerboard yesterday and ever since then my background stays black except for the slide to unlock screen. Any ideas? Firmware is 1.1.1

Thanks

Firmware 1.1.1 is the problem..

It nulls summerboard and any themes you had installed...
 
I uninstalled all my apps before I updated just to be sure. It was dong this before I updated anyway. Thanks
 
Did a restore and its still doing this. Plain black background. Anyone have any ideas?
 
There's nothing wrong with your phone. Summerboard is what allowed you to have wallpaper other than black. Without Summerboard and/or a similar third-party app, you're stuck with black. If you look on Apple's website and their pictures of the iPhone the background is black, and to my knowledge there's no way to change it in 1.1.1.
