How 2 use skins\themes in E2?
or wat ever u say install.
pls help.
Thanx.
In brief  details xplain!

What f/w do you use? With modded one u just put the skin in folder unrecognisable file--my skin.
but with stock f/w u must telnet to do so.
Hope this can help

Faisal.. seems like malay people..
just follow this guide, u will find the solutions

This is how I used to do for installing skin on my E2:
1. Connect E2 to PC using USB LAN.
2. On Windows, klik START, Run, type cmd, press ENTER.
3. Type telnet 192.168.16.2, press ENTER
4. Type root
5. Open Windows Explorer
6. On address bar type \192.168.16.2\system, press ENTER
7. Go to folder /ezx_user/download/appwrite/setup/theme/
8. Copy *.chm file from skin to it
9. Go to folder /ezxlocal/download/appwrite/skin/
10. Copy skin folder (contained *.ezx and *.ini files) to it
11. Restart E2

if you downloaded a skin package, which is named as

.mtf
.skin.zip
.skin.rar

it means you can simply click it on your phone, and it will be installed.

nice sticky topic

Hi!

I've posted on another forum (I don't know if I can put the link here) a skin installer (mpkg) that's quite simple to do it.

Here's the link of the mpkg in 4shared: http://www.4shared.com/file/31866856/a57da6fb/valderramas.html?dirPwdVerified=d493640b (http://www.4shared.com/file/31866856/a57da6fb/valderramas.html?dirPwdVerified=d493640b)

Any comments are welcome!

that's depends on which version are you using
ilove3d's methods are perfect
do it
farewell

First! I'm from China
I find many of this BBS's things are from our BBS---moto.it168.com

 :( i carn even download any themes i tried everything including the instructions i saw on this thread.. can someone hlp?

are u using stock Firmware?

Is it a unchangeable fact that stock firmwares cannot support custom skins? Must use modded firmware for that?

u can install inetD manually in your stock FW to explore your phone internal folders through samba and install skins. However, it's a unchangeable fact that stock firmwares suck a lot. xD

I've installed InetD,followed the instructions in this thread,and why I apply the newly installed theme in the phone,nothing changed. It's still the default moto theme. It's as if the custom .chm file can't read the custom icon files but it reads the default icons etc instead.

Any solution?

go to option > customize home > themes > edit > scroll to the right > at the bottom u can choose the skin that u copy > save > restart phone

Why do I only see wallpaper, screen saver, power up & down animations settings only?

thats why.. the stock firmware cannot recognize custom skin

flash ur phone.. and u will get more joy with modded firmware..
i buy my phone last week and its still under warranty, i didnt like stock skin and aplication, so i just flash it without care bout warranty.. dont worry bout warranty becoz our friends has try to claim warranty with modded firmware at service centre.. he get all claim succesfull..

That's right!

?????

What are u trying to say?

nice post... thank you for quoting. Now what? :)[

i back for you
there are so many solution in the forums if you take care and that will help you

Possible, u must use skin manager

I've tried using this method but it didn't work. Does it have a problem with vista? It's kinda confusing to use the firmware things. I'm in desparate need of help!

me tooo.its make me confused
try to extract skin folder into your SD card and copy
1.skin folder to unreconizeable file>my skin>skin
2.skin.chm to unreconizeable file>my skin>setup theme

you can enjoy it without restart

or you just refresh your phone

I've tried it, but it didn't work.

The telnet starts up fine, but
when I try to type in "# cp /
mmc/mmca1/skin.chm/ezx_
user/download/appwrite/setup/
theme/" without the '#' it gave
me an error. I tried using it and it
 seemed to work, untill I tried
checking the results.

I got this phone in august. It's
nice but I want it's maximum
