How do I theme my iPhone?

Winterboard

Winterboard.  It will make your iPhone stand out like a rhino in a haystack!  There are several hundred themes available, and you’re more than likely to find one you adore.  I am going to show you how to install Winterboard and then add a little touch I call iGlassSol.  Well, ok, the developer named it iGlassSol - but it is my personal favorite theme.

  1. Install WinterBoard - this will give you the capability of applying themes to your device. This application is essential because it let’s you activate a theme that you’ve already downloaded. In the next step after installing Winterboard, we discuss how to download themes and exactly how to activate them.
    • Launch Cydia
    • Tap Sections on the bottom pane
    • Scroll down to the System folder and tap it
    • Find “Winterboard” from Telesphoreo.  You can either scroll through the list or press “w” on the right side, and in that case it will go straight to it
  2. Download your theme
    • Launch Cydia
    • Tap Sections on the bottom pane
    • Scroll down to the “Themes (SpringBoard)” category and open it
    • Find a theme you like (there’s hundreds!)
    • Like I said earlier, iGlassSol is one of my personal favorites.  However, I am a huge fan of NBC’s “The Office” - so I decided to install that one, too
    • The screen captures below show the “Halo 3″ theme being downloaded

  1. Activate your theme
    • Launch Winterboard
    • If you’re just beginning to understand it, I would deselect all of the options.  If you downloaded a complete theme, then select just that
    • Let it reload
    • Enjoy
