I then turned off the phone and turned it back on.
After trying some of the suggestions found here, without success, I decided to move the app back to internal storage. Phases of the Moon was one of those apps.
Recently I began to move any app that I could to my SD card, to save space. I set it as my wallpaper a long time ago. It's possible that the wallpaper needs to be stored on the "internal storage" as opposed to an SD card. I just thought it was odd that when I purchased the phone over a year ago that picture transferred as my screen background from my S4 and now out of nowhere.POOF!!!!.GONE!!!!I found a possible solution. The phone itself did not even reset or show to have updated. I have an S5 with Sprint and I had a picture saved as by background wallpaper and last night as I was watching something on an app, the app crashed and I went to my home page to find out that my background wallpaper had been changed back to default. This doesn't happen when you connect the phone as a media device (MTP) or camera (PTP), but then your files may not be as readily accessible from the PC/Mac as they are with the mass storage option because updating the directory listings takes forever. Also, the same can happen if you've previously moved apps to the secondary storage and then one of them crashes (or gets forcefully closed and then "stalls" some other reading/writing) which apparently can disrupt Android's storage handler (which then resets/restarts and in the meantime the storage isn't accessible, same effect). It usually can't be accessible by both devices that way, so when the storage is gone and Android can't access the wallpaper anymore, it resets to the default one. If your wallpaper is on the secondary storage (internal or SD card) and you connect your phone to the PC/Mac as a mass storage device (UMS), even if it's just for charging and you don't actually access any files, the storage gets disconnected from the phone and instead connected to the PC/Mac.
