    Talking iOS4 Bug: Show off your wallpaper!

    I've discovered quite a nice little bug that allows you to view your wallpaper without any icons covering it up on iOS4. Some of you might have used blank icons to achieve this, but this bug works without them, and doesn't require a jailbreak
    1. Dock your iPhone and open iTunes
    2. Click the Apps tab and scroll to the bottom most blank page in the right column
    3. Drag this blank page above your first page
    4. Move a folder AND an application to this blank page
    5. Undock iPhone
    6. On the iPhone, tap and hold the single application on the first page to move it into the folder next to it
    7. Move the folder to another page leaving the first page blank
    8. Press the home button to exit the app management (jiggling icons)
    9. Your blank page will now stay as is, even after syncs
    10. PROFIT

    You can now use any photo from your albums as a background, including saved images from Safari.

    I did this the other day, but without all those steps. I just moved everything to the second page.
    Didn't realize it was a bug.

    I figured it was a bug because if you move that blank page down to the bottom of the list and sync, it disappears. Maybe its an undocumented feature?

    It's not a bug, it's a feature they accidentally put in. .__.
