'''For those of you who love fiddling around with your beloved N900 via X-Terminal, here are some instructions on how to install custom themes:'''
-
Firstly, create a folder in the root directory of your N900 called "html"
 
-
<code>root
 
-
mkdir /home/user/MyDocs/html
 
-
</code>
 
-
Now follow the steps below to install a theme
 
-
# Select a theme that you want to use from the x section at the bottom of this wiki
+
'''NOTE: Every change you make to the files within the <CODE>html</CODE> folder, you have to either:'''
-
# Download the zip/rar archive and unzip the contents to the <code>html</code> folder that you recently created
+
 
-
# Now open X-Terminal and type the following
+
  <code>
-
  <code>root
+
root
-
  cp -f /home/user/MyDocs/html/* /usr/share/rtcom-messaging-ui/html/
+
  killall rtcom-messaging-ui
  </code>
  </code>
