Hello,
I have an old home screen wallpaper that was from an original photo I had taken a while bac . The photo was deleted off my phone but still remains as the wallpaper even after flashing and updating different updates.
Is there anyway to find that wallpaper? I have been going through the file manager app but no luck. Anyone here have any ideas on where to find it?

I'm on bonsai rom. My question is when I first flashed bonsai rom and I then decided to put a theme on it I flashed it and the wallpaper changed to match the theme. This last time I flashed bonsai rom I changed the wallpaper to a stock one that was on the phone. I then flashed the theme and everything flashed correctly except the wallpaper didn't change. I've tried my three favorite themes and it's all like this. Why does the wallpaper change when I don't change the original wallpaper but if I changed the wallpaper to a stock one before I flash the theme it won't change the wallpaper it just leaves the stock o e there and themes everything else? How can I get the wallpaper to match my theme? thanks
strange, I installed viper rom and same thing happened. When I reflashed it, I had a wallpaper of mine.
This had been an issue across two phones for me. This is my solution and other themers should do this as well. I open launcher2 and overwrite one or two of the wall papers (stock) with ones for the theme so all you have to do is long press on the screen and use the regular wallpaper menu.
The wall paper is inside the zip in system/framework/framework-res.apk/res/drawable-hdpi/default_wallpaper.jpg you call pull it out and manually place it on your sd card.

Default_wallpaper.jpg I have that file on my SD card and its the pic that matches my theme I have installed. How do I over write a stock one with this one? Thanks.

Ive read the instructions for themeing , and while i can see rooting , but to me its just easier to change wallpaper in dI18 stock.
not trying to knock you but sometimes i think we tinker too much lol
I have the wallpaper on my Sd card and I open up launcher2 and I can see all rlthe wallpapers there but I can't figure out how to overwrite a stock one with the one on my SD card. If I click on one I can view it and if I long press I get extract. I just be doing something wrong.

Here's my stand on the wallpaper issue. The framework has a default wallpaper.jpg. So when you flash a rom it displays the default wallpaper. When flashing a theme it changes that default wall paper. No if you changed your wallpaper before flashing the theme the default wallpaper gets changed but you already changed the default wall paper. This is why I provided both wallpapers in my op of mg theme thread. I dunno how to write the edify script to add something to the sdcard. Once I figure that out the wallpapers work be on your sd card if you choose to use one

Well I figured out a way to get it to work. I took the wallpaper that I pulled from the framework and pasted it into my dcim/camera and just selected gallery and then that photo for my wallpaper.

I guess I have 2 problems. The first is, I was attempting to install the nexus s live wallpaper download, and I couldn't get it to work at all. I tried the update zip way, and I also tried the livewallpapers.apk. method, to no avail. Finally, I just gave up, and decided to move the original livewallpaper.apk back into system/app and deleted the nexus s download. The problem now is that my original live wallpapers wont show up in my personolize/home wallpaper settings any more. My evo is rooted and im running the warm 2.2 rom. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Well, I'm not exactly sure why it isn't working, but can you flash to a recent backup? I typically install live wallpapers the simple apk method and have no troubles with it.
Thanks for the response. I did in fact flash to a recent backup and now the original live wallpapers are back. Too bad I wasnt able to use the nexus s live wallpapers though.

WELL what you can do it do a google search on nexus live wallpapers apk file, then install them from the root of your sd card.

Ok. I think I should explain in depth what I have done.
I want Water Live Wallpaper of Galaxy S and for that I found a thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1161063.
But first I connected to Samsung Kies 2.0 and updted my phone to
PDA I9000XWKF3
PHONE I9000DDKE4
CSC I9000DDKF3
and according to that thread, I need to root my phone. So I flashed kernal to GT-I9100_XWKF3_insecure and rooted my phone using odin method. After root, I again flashed kernal to GT-I9100_XWKF3_original as found in one of the thread. After that I followed the method of replacing livewallpapers.apk as mentioned in above thread. But after that, there is no option for live wallpaper selection in Wall paper option. I thought that factory reset will solve the problem so I done factory reset (2 times) but still I am not having option of Live Wallpaper. Now pls somebody help n let me know what would be the problem? Is it the update which I done using Kies? Coz I think after factory reset, everything should be as defaulted. Or is thare any other way to enable live wallpaper? I also downloaded some live wallpaper from market n they got successfully installed but didnt find Live Wallpaper option.
My current wallpaper isn't available on my current kitkat rom, but it's still set as wallpaper. So where is it located? How to export the picture? Is the only way to install older one? But if I install the right rom which has it as option, then how do I get it?
Edit: nevermind, found with googling a bit: http://clubedoandroid.com.br/wp-content/uploads/2012/06/
I would really like to know if it's possible. Had this problem a couple of times.
