Hello, I accidentally deleted the photo that serves as my wallpaper. However, it is still set as my wallpaper. How can I go retrieve it? Thank you in advance. Best regards. Samsung Galaxy J3 2016

Hello,

If the photo is still on the smartphone, you should be able to see it in the Gallery app.
Display it and click on the three little dots in the top right corner.
In the menu, you will find Set as wallpaper.

Thank you for your response. However, that is exactly the problem: the photo is no longer in the gallery but still set as the wallpaper. I would like to recover it, but I don't know how.

Sorry, I wrote too quickly.
And above all, it seems that there is no possibility to access wallpapers on non-rooted phones.

I suggest looking in Google Photos. There is an automatic backup of photos (if you haven't disabled it).

Uh, if it's Google Drive, I removed it from my phone a long time ago!

Google Drive and Google Photos are not exactly the same thing, even though the storage space is shared.
Do check on your smartphone or computer.
