How I create a borderless background for my Samsung d807?

Using a higher image editing program, create a canvas that is some multiple of 176 pixels wide and 220 pixels long. If you are modifying an image, crop it to the largest possible multiple. Import whatever you on to the canvas. Remember to take into account the idle screen clock and other constants. Once satisified, reduce your image so that it is the exact size of the screen. Save. Be sure that your file is less than 100KB and that the filename is no longer than 32 characters. Move your file to your phone by e-mail or copy it to the Images folder of your microSD card. Once the file has been moved over into the "Downloaded Graphics" folder, highlight the desired picture and select "Set as Background". The image should now be on your main screen, and without borders.

The password you will want to enter is 235282. Then it will show you the jar/jad files inside the directory. Select the file you want to install. Hit the Install button. If the the phone freezes, don't worry - just slide the phone closed. Confirm installation by selecting Yes. It may take quite a few seconds to install. Then it will ask you if you would like to start the application. Choose No and you will be returned to the idle screen.
After a successful installation, you may start the applications from the My Games folder.

If you have changed your password, change it to the default 00000000. Then go to SETTINGS, SECURITY, and then SIM LOCK to disable this.

A screen will then appear containing an exit option. Exit. From the menu, select Malloc Fail. This will reboot the phone. Then type *0141# and press the green call key. "Personalization" will appear. Turn off your D807 and put the original SIM card back in. Turn your phone on. Type 8 zeros.
