Maybe your wallpaper was obtained from PhotoBucket?
No I turned my phone on and off and then on again cause my service was all wacky. Then this screen popped up and I took a screen shot of it and uploaded it to photobucket to post on here.
Nope, nothing like that. This came on after the phone was already on. I just updated to 3.0.1 2 days ago. I was very perplexed lol maybe a glitch with the software update?
Someone is playing a joke on you.
Its a form of a message someone send you. Cant remember what they call it.

No it's not. I didn't get any messages. My phone litteraly turned on and this screen came on and I hit that back button. And I'm in airplane mode cause my battery is almost dead and I'm at work with no charger lol
LMAO come on guys... look at the <back> button.. it's a picture in the photo app... seriously...
and the flash messages look a little different.
Actually that is the image of when AT&T sends you a message. When I accdentally disabled 3G on my iphone (by putting the card and activing a 2G), i put it back, called ATT, and then they showed that. Afterwards, the guy on ATT told me to restart the phone.
So it's send to you by most likely AT&T. Most likely to reset the connection between your sim card and the network.
I'm very serious about this not being a joke or message. My service was suspended because I forgot to pay my bill. Then I paid it, the service was restored but my Internet wasn't working. So I shut the phone on and off twice then right when the phone turned on this is what came up. How would you send a message like that? I hit that "back" button and it brought me to the home screen. Any other ideas, since everyone thinks I'm screwing around???
Dolp! Back button fail!
I am curious about these flash messages though. I never heard of them. I would have a TON of fun with these and my non techsavvy friends

Why would you even waste our time with that image you made?
Flash SMS would be nice on AT&T ... I've been considering moving to the UK just to get it. ( Specifically Swansea ) ;-) ... I love that place.
