Does anyone know where the wallpaper folder is on the S3? I'm wanting to edit some of the default wallpapers, but I don't know where they're located.

Have you tried looking into the /system/app/SecWallpaperChooser.apk to see if they are in there?

can someone post the original wallpapers from the galaxy s 2, pleasE? or link me?
I'm also interested in this.
I had to do emergency recovery on my phone when upgrading the firmware and in the process I lost some wallpapers, sounds etc.
When you do a factory reset you don't get all the wallpapers, sounds as when the phone is brand new in the box. I wonder what I'm missing?
There are a few free wallpaper apps on Market. I have a couple installed and they have some decent backgrounds.
Thanks but i want the ones that comes in the phone

There is only a single lightning bolt-ish wallpaper on mine. Also the only live wp is the google maps one.

I'm looking for the live grass wallpaper that will work with ICS and CM9/AOKP. I've had it before that I extracted from a rom but I can't remember where I got it and I accidentally deleted it. Yes, I have searched until I am blue in the face...And no, I don't want the Beautiful widgets weather wallpaper instead.
Any feedback?
**Solved**
It has been ported for ICS use and is on the market here:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.den.wallpaper
Why not just pull it again like you did before?
If it's the stock one I'm thinking, you should find it on almost any gingerbread rom/build.
That's what I was thinking but I can't find it for some reason now. I've flashed and re-flashed roms trying to find it and downloaded a number of them, extracted and looked through the zipped files in the rom for the APK. No luck.
I believe its called LiveWallpapersPicker.apk . I think that may be why u weren't finding it. Cause when i started looking out of curiosity there was nothing with grass in the name. But the icon next to that .apk is a picture of grass . So i think that's it. I know Serendipity has it in.
Edit: in /system/apps obviously

Thanks! I'll try that.
And....no luck. hmm...
Check this. Pretty sure it's in LiveWallpapers.apk but I have no idea to what extent it's dependent on other things or the Samsung framework.

Nope, doesn't work.
There is one that is part of Beautiful widgets. Might be what you are looking for.
Make sure u aren't just trying to install these apks. U have to push them to /system/apps and set permissions.

Hi, I apologize if this has been covered elsewhere but I can't find it.
I just rooted my Verizon Samsung Galaxy S4 (MD5) and still running the stock ROM. I'd like to change the text underneath my app icons on my screens and the app tray. For example, I'd like the ability to change "Gallery" to "Pictures".
Does an easy way to do this exist?
Thank you!

Thank you... yes, I'm aware other launchers do it. I'm looking for a way to change something under the hood within the stock TouchWiz to change the text. I thought I had read somewhere there was a configuration file I could modify.

Desktop visualizer maybe. I was thinking you could do it manually editing the android manifest of each file but didnt find anything there.
