Sorry, no offense, Didn't know how long you'd been a smartphoner  

Which home screen did you install, I'll try it on mine and see what I get

Whew, I thought I was in for a flam'n on that one...

Ok I did the same thing but it installed fine...I don't have the plugins so it didn't look right, but it did install none the less.  Try copying it to your phone memory then installing, I can't see how that will help, but it is worth a shot.

I didn't get the file in rar format, it was a .cab file.  I just put the file straight on my phone and installed it from there.

So I have the same problem...

I put the files in \application data\home\

from several different screens I downloaded...

Nothing new in the choices...

HELP!

thanks

Winrar makes .cab files look like they need to be unzipped.  take the original downloaded file and put it in the temp folder.  Go to the temp folder and the file should look like a regular .cab file.  run it and it should install.
