Hello User,

sorry for this stupid Question, but i don't know how i can install selfmade Themes at the N900. I built a Theme via The Theme Maker 1.2.3, created a .deb and sent it by bluetooth to my N900.

Now, it is saved in the file manager, but this is the reason, why i can't choose it by the Setting "Themes".

What should i do?

Best wishes,
Jonny

You should install it first on the device? Double tap the .deb file, it should open the app manager.

In xterm, navigate to MyDocs and run,
Code:
dpkg -i themefile.deb

kabu, where exactly is the problem? You have to be more explicit.

So, if i double-tick on the .deb, i get the app manager.
But what i have to do then??
i can open it as as_daemon, Backup, Blocks, etc. ...

They removed the one-click-installation.

You need to use the console

In xterm, navigate to MyDocs and run,
Code:
dpkg -i themefilename.deb

Hey, thank you joppu for your help,

Unfortunelly, the xterm needs superuser privilegs!
with sudo, it needs a password, that i don't have..
and how i can change to Mydocs? cd mydocs don't work..

I have only a prototype of the N900, could it be disruptive?

use
Code:
ls
to list the directory content.

Make sure to type the MyDocs as Case Sensitive, since it's Unix.

try

Code:
sudo gainroot
i think the path is /home/user/MyDocs/ but i'm not sure... atleast my n800 has that path
