Why doesn't my Multi Photo Wallpaper work?

[Bob Thebuilder]

Considering all that this device does do, I'm at a loss on why it won't add any of my images on the Tap + to add image screen.
When I select Apply anyway it displays a black wallpaper for all home screens with a static loading circle gif that only spins when you touch and move any homescreen.
Any ideas? TIA! I have searched and researched this but can't find any reported problems.
BTW, day 15 of another 2 yr att contract (previous=GS2Skyrocket) and couldn't justify a $199.99 N3 to this $0.00 G2

not quite sure but maybe the default app you chose to select images isn't your gallery but a different app? go to Settings> General > Apps > Under all apps look for Multi photo and scroll down to clear defaults?

Thanks, I found Launch By Default = No defaults set, I wouldn't have thought to go there and do that.
The Select a photo screen is displaying all of my Gallery picture thumbs as well as one thumb titled Folders (which includes every other form of image I have) under the title of Camera. I have tried using every form of image to no avail. A software update from att loaded last nite (?) but still the prob. Software version = D80010o.
Thanks again.

I tried going to application manager, and went on Multi Photo Wallpaper and then it saids " no defaults set" because same with me when I put apply on Multi-photo wallpaper all my screens were black with the loading circle. Any Help?

Hey guys! I just received mine yesterday and yeah I for the person I am, went on performing all sorts of experiments with my G2 {and by the way kudos to all of us for G2 is one Beast of a phone } I did face the same problem and solved it by factory resetting as my phone was still new and I didn't load much of apps. Still there are a few things I realized.
firstly When we select multi photo wallpaper and we tap to add image, we are asked to choose between Gallery and Photos. Gallery being the stock viewer and Photos comes up with google services. Now what I noted is when we add images with Gallery its working fine but while cropping, "Photos" was better at it, so I selected "Photos" for adding Images as well and selected it to perform the task 'always' which I believe is what caused the problem for me. Now after the reboot I've selected gallery for adding and "Photos" for cropping and it works well.
Hope that helps.
