Hello! It seems you’re encountering a known issue with the iOS 17 Beta where attempting to change the black wallpaper causes the system to lock up. Here are a few potential solutions that users have found helpful:

  2. Set a New Wallpaper: Try setting a new wallpaper from scratch. [Go to Settings > Wallpaper, and choose a new wallpaper to see if it resolves the issue.
  3. Change Your Region: Some users have reported that changing the region on their iPhone to another region and then back again has fixed the issue. [This can be done in Settings > General > Language & Region.
  4. Wait for an Update: As with most beta software, bugs are expected. [If the above solutions don’t work, you might need to wait for the next beta update, which could include a fix for this problem.
