Guide to adding themes to your iPhone (Mac)
It's not hard to add a new theme to your iPhone quickly with a couple programs & this guide. Firstly your iPhone needs to be unlocked for 3rd party applications, you need the program called SummerBoard and OpenSSH which you can get on the Application Installer. Lastly, you need a program called Fugu installed on your Mac.
Step 1
Download Fugu here & install on your Mac.
Step 2
Launch Fugu
Step 3
Before you can continue with Fugu, you need to know what IP address that is being assigned to your iPhone by your router. Press the Home button, Settings, Wi-Fi, select the name of your network by pressing the blue arrow on the right, then look where it says "IP Address"
Enter your IP Address in the "Connect to" box, in "Username" box use root as your username (use lower case),
click connect.
Step 4
Connecting which can take about 60 seconds.
Step 5
At this screen enter your password. If you haven't already changed the password, then the default one is "alpine". Enter it and click "Authenticate".
Step 6
SummerBoard themes are installed in the right hand side column at: /var/mobile/Library/SummerBoard/Themes/. I suggest you make a folder on your Mac to hold your themes.
Step 7
Now move a theme you like from your Mac themes folder into your iPhone SummerBoard themes folder. Just by clicking on your theme folder (mine is named "Big Icons") hold and drag across.
As you can see abovemy "Big Icons" folder is now in my iPhone SummerBoard themes folder.
Step 8
Now with your iPhone go into SummerBoard/Themes and there you will find the folder you moved across earlier in Step 7. As you can see from my screenshot, my folder "Big Icons" is in my theme library.
Step 9
All you do now is select your new theme & reset your springboard, if by magic you have a new themed iPhone.
ENJOY
