Performed following steps;

Select "Color Picker" -> click the wall

Pls refer to screenshot_image-1

But I couldn't start the "Symmetry Painting" screen ?

 I don't use nor speak about the Symmetry Painting in this example (just look at the active tab/dialog in my screenshot which are the layers' dialog and the tool options)

Let's try a step by step:
In the layer's stack/dialog you have only your picture ➤ No other layers at this stage.

➤ Click on the Color picker tool(NO window/dialog will open, that's normal)
➤ In the tool options of the color picker, set it to Set foreground color (first screenshot below)
➤ then pick the color on the wall (NO window/dialog will open, this action will ONLY set the foreground color of the FG/BG icon just below the tools ➤ see second screenshot)


➤ your new foreground color is set (see screenshot just below)
➤ now create a new layer (be sure it is selected)
➤ then use that new foreground color to fill the new layer (by directly drag n drop that FG icon on the new layer, or use the bucket fill tool, or in the menu Edit/Fill with FG color),


➤ then put that new colored layer in grain extract mode... basically that's all you have to do


Optional: once it's done, fine tune as explained at the bottom of my previous post

Hi,

Something strange on the GIMP running here.  I couldn't reproduce what you have advised.

Clicking the wall with Color Picker tool is without response.

Pls refer to images upload


What I meant "Symmetry Painting" is the screen of the image upload on your post #2.  Pls refer to the image upload. 

I have spent more than half hour without result.
