Can't find the wallpaper

Hello, my question can seem somewhat unsignificant for you, but helping me would really do a work.

After installing the new 4.0 update I've got a new extremely awesome wallpaper. I have changed it.

Now I want to get it back, but I have no idea where it is. How can i find it?

I know where it is set, I want to know the path to a specific file.

What wallpapers you are exactly talking about?

If you are talking about the wallpaper that can be found or used from here "settings > display > wallpaper"

then you can not access the path or folder of these items. Because they are in a system folder and it is a protected folder and can not be access without ROOT.

Or else you are talking about any walpaper you stored in SD?

I am talking about a particular standart wallpaper. Even if it can't be reached via

"settings > display > wallpaper", it still could be seen by a file manager.

The question is where are these standart wallpapers contained.

First read this carefully. You have updated to ICS and ICS comes with some default wallpapers from SONY just as any other update. And as I said if you are talking about those wallpapers then it is not possible to reach to that location of the files without having a root explorer or similar app.

With normal file manager you can not access those system wallpapers. You can do only if it is stored in your SD card.

"settings > display > wallpaper" the wallpapers you can access from here, following is the location-

system\

       etc\

         customization\

            content\

               com\

                  sonyericsson\

                    wallpaperpicker\ wallpapers

I am telling you again if you are talking about the default system wallpapers then this is the location of those files and can be reached only via Root Exploere or Similar software.

BTW, can't you access them via "settings > display > wallpaper"?

Root is no need it, just download es explorer, it allow you to explore the root files and copy it , you only need root if you are going to modified or delete files but if you are going to copy root is no need it
