Installing the homeskins

Alright for example:

Im trying to install the Jaguar one. When I downloaded it from the website and unzipped or unrared it whatever.. I got a setup file and like 10 other little files with it.

I copied those and put them into my storage>application data>Home.... like it says on the website to do. But when i go into my phone in the file manager and click on the setup file it goes to a blank screen...

Is there something else that I'm missing?

Dont extract the files on your puter, just take that one downloaded bundle file and copy that to your phone and run it from there. It should install itself 🙂

So the phone can extract the zipped or rared files by itself??

My bad, I thought you were opening the .CAB file. I'll try the Jaguar one in a sec, and let ya know how it goes.

Yeah I was thinking right, that Jaguar theme is a .CAB file. All you have to do is copy that cab file onto the phone, use your file explorer and hit that file with the big blue button. It should install right from there 🙂

Thanks I finally figure it out... for some reason I thought I had to extract the files first on my computer then copy those files to my phone... I just used to many steps.. haha.

Thanks again

The MPx220 doesn't have the ability to unzip files, does it?

I have an older puter windows 98 and no program to unzip files. I want to install some of the programs like the clone for pac-man game, but the darn thing is a .zip file!!

To my knowledge it doesn't, i threw that pac-man zip on my phone, tried to run it, it just set there.

I just extracted to the desktop then brought the exe file over to my phone.

winzip will work with 98, i used it all the time when i had 98 🙂

www.winzip.com

or WinRAR will work too!

can't remember the direct download page but
www.download.com has it in the search
