Wallpaper location??

[jackryan57]

Where is the location of my active winterboard theme wallpaper? Anyone know? I would like to SSH in and change it.

The magic of google gave me this answer, look in the Library/Themes/"Name of theme" and you should just replace the wallpaper in that folder.

Don't feel stupid, feel informed now. You don't need to do that though, you can just go into winterboard, and check "user wallpaper" and then drag it to the top. And if you save the wallpaper image on your phone, and then set it as the lock background wallpaper, it will become the the wallpaper.

Don't, that's the incorrect location.

It's actually at: /private/var/stash/Themes.xxxxxx where .xxxxxx is a random alphanumeric string.

/Library/Themes is sym-linked to /private/var/stash but then you'll still have to navigate to the Themes.xxxxxx folder.

You place your theme folders in the Themes.xxxxxx directory.

Thanks, I knew that trick. But I was looking to change my springboard wallpaper and leave my lockscreen the way it was - I don't like the lockscreen and the wallpaper to be the same - thanks though
