Hello Sony, it seems preinstalled wallpapers are not as nice as on Z. I miss the one with the grass from Z and S models. Is it possible to bring it back?

Thank you.

You can get those pictures from your other Xperias and transfer them to your Xperia Z1 or download those wallpapers from the XDA forum

Wjat is the location of stock wallpapers? Never was able to see it as a file that I would be able to move.

Those wallpapers are system files.

Using any file browser > system > etc > customization > content > com > sonyericsson > wallpaper picker > walpapers ..

No, you won't need root to copy them. (You can clearly read them without rooting, right? Slightly_smiling_Face You jsut can't change them.)

You can use your favourite filebrowser and just copy/share them, for example Ghost Commander. (Available for free in Play or F-Droid).

I've just tried to copy by Ghost Commander. ACCESS DENIED, no files copied.

I've just copied all of them with it, so it works without a root Slightly_smiling_Face

You've copied files "from", I think. Sure, without any problems. But I can't copy it into: system > etc > customization > content > com > sonyericsson > wallpaper picker > walpapers

You can't copy to that location because those are system files. You will have to root your phone in order to do that.
