SMS Background picture resolution?

[musiclover77]

I have an Iphone 5. I have followed various methods on the internet to change the background of my sms application. I have successfully changed it, but no matter what I do, the background does not fill the screen. I am hoping to get some help from someone around here who might know how to pull this off. Anyone know what the resolution should be. I have tried 320 x 480 and 570 x 570. Any help appreciated!!

For an iPhone 5, you will need to use an image that is 960 x 960 in size.

How do you change? Is this a jailbreak?

Yes. In order to change the background of the Message app, you have to be jail broken. Then, you can either change the background manually or by purchasing a theme that changes the background for you.
