How am I able to put a custom livewall paper as the background

Livewall? lol Interesting, but surely impossible.

I was able to customize my background (it's the same pic as my profile pic) by downloading the image directly to my Xbox One and then setting it as my background. I just put the image on a flash drive then plugged it into the Xbox USB and downloaded it
to my Xbox.

Thanks for replying. When I go to "Settings > General > Personalization > My background", and then put in my passcode, the screen is grey. I can view images in capture, but I have not found a way to view the current background. There is a list of 5 options: Solid Colors, Custom Image, Dynamic Backgrounds, Show selected game art, and Restore Default Background. Is there something I am missing?

Hi celticknot56, the option to change your background is "change theme".

You should be able to delete the offending picture if you go to the last tab of the dashboard "settings", select "system" and then "storage", and then "themes".

Hope this helps...

On a more serious note, who else has access to your machine, as the only way to put personal/custom pictures on an Xbox for use as a background is, as far as I am aware, via a USB stick , or a network connected pc.

Hello, so ive just plugged in a USB to my Xbox so i can put a custom image as my background however, when i sign into a different Xbox the image is gone. How do i fix this?

The custom image is only on the Xbox you put.

It is not something that is synchronized in nuveem, such as your avatar.
