I have seen pictures of the music + video hub when opened, showing background pictures of the artists/albums you have on your phone.

enter image description here

When I open the music + video hub on my device, all I get for a background is a black nothing. How do I get this app to have background pictures?

I've looked this up and found a link that makes sense. It says that the primary hotmail account that is synced with the WP device needs to be a US account. I have already setup and synchronized an Indian account and it seems the only way to get background pictures for the music + video hub is:

  1. Create a US account.
  2. Hard reset my phone
  3. Set US account as my primary.

Does anyone have a solution that will not require a reset?

  • Alternatively, and totally inappropriate for here, does anyone know how I can petition Microsoft to open an Indian Zune Marketplace? That seems to be a better solution to get the background pictures without a reset. – Thomas Apr 25 '12 at 5:46
  • It doesn't have to be a US account, as I get them with a UK account; although not for all artists – Rowland Shaw♦ Apr 25 '12 at 7:59
  • Yeah! Any account that Zune Music Marketplace supports should do. – Thomas Apr 25 '12 at 8:01

Currently its not possible without going the reset way, which is why I am tolerating the black background myself.
