Default SP5 homescreen alignment

Hi, i recently recieved an imate SP5 and whenver i try to use QVGA homescreen they don't align properly. Theres either a black/white bar at the top or bottom of the screen.

I tried some homescreens from these sites:

and
http://w411y.tk/

Any ideas? Thanks.

There's a couple things....

Under Settings / Home Screen, Make sure you set the background and color settings to default.

The other things is that some of these home screen are built around different localization values. So the date/time won't display correctly or the font is a different size. Overall it shouldn't be a problem, but on occasion it is.

Also, make sure you're getting a home screen that's QVGA. There are a lot of screen built for the smaller / older resolution screens.
