Answer 1

You cannot do anything about the background when working with High Level GUI (meaning Form stuff). If you want to control the background, you'll need to use Canvas - but Form elements can't be used on a Canvas. Best option then is to use LWUIT. It gives you a set of elements like you have with Form, but because it uses Canvas you have much more options and such.
