So iv been trying to upload a photo I want to use as a background and I have a xbox series...

Hi, my name is Ezequiel and thank you for your question and for reaching out. Hello Caleb Cole1how are you?

You can transfer the image to your Xbox via a pen drive.

Yes, I've been trying to upload it on my phone. The photo I was trying to upload worked earlier before but I changed it to a different photo to see if it would happen again. Then I switched back to the photo I wanted but it's not showing up. I don't think my photo goes against community guidelines. It must be a bug.

Hello, and thanks for getting in touch. I'm Aileen, and I'm here to provide you with advice as an Independent Advisor.

Memorie, if you want to use a photo from your phone as your Xbox background, you can do that by sending the photo to your Xbox through the Xbox app or OneDrive. Here’s how to do it step-by-step:

Option 1: Use the Xbox mobile app (quick method for screenshots or photos)

On your phone, install the Xbox app (iOS or Android)

Sign in with the same Xbox account you use on your console

Upload the photo to your Xbox activity feed (you can make it private)

Go to your Xbox console

Open the Xbox app on your console, view your profile, and find the uploaded image

Open the image full screen, press the Menu button, and select Set as background

Option 2: Use OneDrive (more control over files)

Install the OneDrive app on your phone

Upload the photo to your OneDrive account

On your Xbox, install and open the OneDrive app

Sign in and browse to the photo

View it in full screen, press the Menu button (three lines), and choose Set as background

Once it’s set, it’ll appear as your console wallpaper behind your home screen tiles.

Please let me know if you need any further assistance. Looking forward to your response.

Ive been at 0% for CoD Black ops for two hours and my xbox shuts off when i want it to background download. So what next?

I tried this last night, i have photos in my One Drive & tried to upload them this way. The only way you can use a photo from your One Drive is on your profile pic & a Club background.

As stated before i don’t see Microsoft allowing this as a feature in the future.
