hi guys...

once again i am in need of some help. for some silly reason i cannot seem to install any themes i downloaded from the internet. i downloaded one yesterday from a different site, and that worked fine. but i reset my phone due to some earlier hiccups, so i had to download the theme again. but this time it just will not show up on my 'today screen' all i get are the normal 3 default themes.

am i doing something wrong here?

i know i am a newbie here, but i was expecting some form of replies since this site comes highly recommended. do i have to go through a initiation process or something! ;)

anyway, i have installed one theme which was a tsk file extension. but i tried to install c cab file theme from another site, it installed fine but i cannot seem to find the theme anywhere on the phone!

Be cool, we're always very welcoming to new members. It's just that most MoDaCo members will be in the pub on a Friday night and will only just be getting out of their beds at this time of day ;)

I've been away from Pocket PCs for a while but have not seen any themes that come as cab files. I suspect that the file you have tried to install is intended for Smartphones and therefore won't work on your phone. Can you give us a link to the page with the theme on ?

One reason for a possible slow reply is you have listed an Varion 2 which is a PocketPC, this section is for Smartphones.

With the tsk file place it anywhere on your device like the storage card root folder then with the file manager explore the card and select the file, then you will see the today screen settings page where you can select the theme to use.

EDIT beaten by Disco, should spend less time eating my breakfast and more time typing ;)
