IPhone iOS7 - how to reduce the bg from looking dark?

So I've just updated my iOS, and realized it makes your background wallpaper look a lot darker than what the original picture looks like. It didn't help editing the contrast/brightness of the picture, and even full-on white looks grayish! Plus unlike the previous iOS, though in the wallpaper settings it says "zoom in/out", it seems impossible to zoom out but only zoom in EVEN THOUGH there's definitely extra space on both sides (height x length).

Is there ANY way to fix this?

I tried looking for answers, but no one else even seems to have these problems.
Am I doing something wrong?

My iphone 3G loses signal when chatting?

I had my iphone 3G updated to iOS6 in February, after which it started having this problem. Whenever I chat with anyone on Facebook (chat bubble head things), I lose my signal (both phone and Wi-Fi) for just about a few seconds. It also happens when I'm charging and it reaches 80-89% and sometimes while it's plugged in at 100%… It will just lose both signals say Searching… Then the Wi-Fi comes back and my carrier signal. Every time i send a message on chat it does this and it's really annoying because it slows everything down. If anyone could provide a solution, i'd be very happy. I'm hoping this can be fixed with an update or something.
