How to change your themes on an iPod touch/iPhone

Tutorial time


OK I have had a few people ask how I did my Terminator/Predator themes on my touch so I have compiled a slightly geeky but easy to follow guide.


YOUR IPOD/IPHONE MUST BE JAILBROKEN FIRST! (use Quickpwn)


Here are the steps I took to transfer my files


IMPORTANT! Anyone who has SSH'd before just follow steps under THEME CUSTOMIZATION



1: download Putty from here

2: Then download Win SCP from here

3:Install automatic SSH on the iPod you can find it through Installer on your springboard installer/search for SSH

Ok you're ready to talk to your ipod via SSH .

CONNECTING TO DEVICE


In you iPod menu click settings/general/autolock and click never (this will stop the iPod from sleeping

1: Load up Putty and type in your iPod I.P address in the field marked Host name or (I.P address)

2: Click open. Your computer will search for your iPod/iPhone

3: Enter the following

User: root

Password: Alpine

The name of your device will be displayed.

Stage 3.

Open WinSCP and enter same IP address as before and user: root , password: alpine.

Now click login and you will see a browser split screen with My documents one side and your iPod the other




THEME CUSTOMIZATION


To change the themes you navigate to iPod/Var/Stash/Themes

Make a new folder and call it new theme (you can change this later)

Now open an existing theme and copy the following files: Wallpaper.PNG, Lockbackground.PNG and the ICONS folder to your desktop.

Now open the files in a DP program like Photoshop and just change the images to whatever you like. IMPORTANT overite the seperate files don't rename (The ipod only recognises PNG files.





Thats it, return to WINSSH and drag from desktop to the new theme folder and restart your ipod. Now just go to Winterboard and your theme should be the first one you see, click it and it will load your new custom theme on your iPod.

Enjoy.


Regards

Paul

Good news! I have worked out how to put AVI video on my iPod so I can create a gauntlet pred display or just screencap it from a Pred movie to photoshop and make an AVI movie. Put it on a loop and VOILA! one Pred display with sound

I used Videora which is free here

You can literally just convert a movie from your PC or Mac and drag from iTunes into your iPod. I'll save this movie file and put a link for all you hunters to download it. Sound good?
