  • Download and run i-FunBox for your computer operating system.
  • Plug your device into USB.
  • Open Raw File System under your device name on the left hand side.
  • Navigate to /var/stash/Library/Wallpaper/iPhone/ and copy all files to your computer
  • Then delete all files from that folder on your iPhone (/var/stash/Library/Wallpaper/iPhone/)
  • Copy the files from your computer back into that folder.
  • Respring

If use iFile :
To fix using iFile – moved all wallpapers from var/stash/Library/Wallpaper/iPhone to a new folder – respring – moved all wallpaper back to var/stash/Library/Wallpaper/iPhone – respring
You can also use SSH.

    I’ve experience this, but got that 1 fix by using Winscp remove all the wallpaper from the Iphone, took another Iphone without having Black Wallpaper cause and copy all the wallpapers using Winscp too, after that paste the wallpapers into the other Iphone(the one having black wallpaper) wallpaper folder, it should fix it.
