Is there anyway to save the wallpaper? I lost the picture that I used for the wallpaper.

As per Uliwooly, the file has to be on the memory card somewhere. How did you get the picture on the handset in the first place?

I believe someone sent it to me via MMS and I don't have that picture anymore.

However to have set this as a wallpaper you would have had to push and hold your finger on the picture in the message and chosen to save it. This would mean it may still be on your memory card in the downloads folder.

In most cases it shouldn’t, or if it does you should be able to revert back to what you had originally as the wallpaper is generally set using content stored on the card. In you cases it appears that the files was not saved to the card.
